He was obviously a sincere Christian. So why did he go to such lengths to protect pedophiles? And why did Pope Ben get the wrap for it, when Ben was the one telling him to plz stahp protecting pedophiles?
>>520563
Because he knew he could get away with it.
>>520564
That doesn't explain it. He was a very religious Christian, so religious he even whipped himself. It's no doubt that no one is perfect, but did he even consider what he was doing to be sinful?
Because he was a pedophile himself.

According to Snorri Sturluson, before the battle a man bravely rode up to Harald Hardrada and Tostig and offered Tostig his earldom if he would but turn on Harald Hardrada. When Tostig asked what his brother Harold would be willing to give Harald Hardrada for his trouble, the rider replied that he would be given seven feet of ground as he was taller than other men. Harald Hardrada was impressed with the rider and asked Tostig his name. Tostig replied that the rider was none other than Harold Godwinson
So what's the difference between psychopathy and sociopathy? Is there a difference? Is it possible to 'teach' empathy to a psychopath/sociopath?

Interesting thing about those two, they simply don't have the capacity to feel those sentiments.
They can be "taught" in the sense where they will display the behavior, but it would only be a superficial reaction, the apperance of a response is there, but no eternal sensation. Though, sociopaths can form some form of emotional attachment, unlike psychopaths.

Are sociopaths more volatile because they can feel negative emotions or is it independent?
Jesus Christ or King Arthur, which has more basis in history? Which has more evidence?
>>520082
Both were featured by the pythons in equal ways
From a purely secular perspective, supposing most are fictional, the stories about Christ were written shortly after his life, whereas many of the times of King Arthur were written far later.
>>520082
Jesus, because we have far better records of him as he was living under the more settled area of the roman empire
the figure Arthur on the other hand was a composite of a number of historical kings IIRC, I have a book on it, but damned if I can find it
Why haven't Spain successfully annexed Portugal? Not through lineage like Phillip II but through actual military action.

Anglo-Portuguese alliance.

They tried multiple times
The failed multiple times

never conquered, etc, etc...
Hey /his/, I have some broad questions regarding the sleeping patterns of people in the past.
1. Did people wake up at sunrise and sleep at sunset or did they sleep a solid 8 hours a day? Did this continue even when days were especially short around Winter?
2. How did people in the past wake up, alarm clocks were not invented. Dogs? Other animals? (Roosters I can imagine would be plausible).
3. Did the invention of artificial light for mass use such as the light-bulb drastically change human sleeping patterns since its creation?
Thanks for reading,...

I want to read up on a particularly gruesome historical event, but i can't recall enough details to find what i am looking for.
here's what i remember, it was an army/mercenaries can't recall, that hadn't been paid, or their pay was delayed
I don't know what country they were from, maybe spanish can't remember, but they went into a German? city, and for several weeks/days raped, burnt, looted and murdered several hundreds of civilians.
i think it was called party or the party of "x" city, but i can't find anything...
