Why were anglos so obsessed with race?
Gotta make sure you can justify those genocides somehow.
>>507376
Didn't the French begin with it?
Also Boulainvilliers.
>>507536
The French have really been the worst about race since the beginning of time. It's pretty incredible how they get a pass in the English speaking world.

im still confused about it.i want to learn more and start believe more in it.
is Adam the first guy in earth?i've heard about lilith that she's the first woman but not mention in Bible,why?
Adam was the first man on earth, created from dust. In Jewish mythology, the first woman Lilith was created from dust also, but that made Adam and Lilith equals and caused fights over dominance. Therefore, she was discarded, and Eve was created from one of Adam's ribs, so she would be subordinate to her. I don't think Lilith is ever mentioned in the Bible, just in Jewish commentaries on Genesis.
>>506667
>but not mention in Bible,why?
Probably because God doesn't want his fuck-ups publicised.
>>506698
>Adam was the first man on earth
can u explain that?
is jewish the same as christianity?
so now we know that eve not the first woman,its lilith the demon?
I want to become a less hateful nicer person to people.
I study the occult and fringe type of stuff very lightly. Read a few books on the topic. I also read the bible in my quest to be a good person and general illogical human needs that we have. Obviously the bible is bullshit but is there anything in the "occult" realm like paganism or Buddhism that will help me in just becoming a more moral person?
I am into the occult and study everyday but I kind of want a legit structure in my mind.

Oh yip I was in the same boat a couple of months ago,
I was struggling with identity and then I realised that it didn't matter, I could be whoever I wanted so I decided to be someone that everyone wanted to be around.
I don't mean to be cryptic I can explain anything better, just ask :)
Just the idea that a human life can be taken at any moment, the fact that so many inhumane tragedies occur, the complete lack of empathy for territorial gain or to earn a position of power; why is war still a reliable alternative to peace?
I realize that oppressed should have a right to fight his oppressor, but many times in the world we see the bigger power exerting its power over simpler or perceived weaker force.
Are we really then no different from our blood-thirsty ancestor?
Is war just a natural occurrence in humanity? Should i embrace the bleak catastrophe that...

Clay.
War drives innovation and fosters new industries.
War is good.
it's not natural at all, but it'll happen until something stops it from being profitable
and why is it the Knights Hospitaller?
Because they invented a bomb-ass method to find the limit of an equation.

What was the strongest point of the United States as a world power?
1950s? 1990s? 2000s?
Pic related, US military allies and Partnership for Peace (lightest blue)

Late 40's and early 50's. Being the only nuclear power makes all the difference.

Bretton-Woods sounds like a good metric to me

Russia had nukes by 1949 m8.
What went wrong?
Clearly nothing.
Luther's true goal was to convince the Catholic church to reform as a whole, which he saw the church as straying away from God's original message through the indulgence sales, sale of church positions, etc.
Well the Pope or the Council didn't budge, so the people who believed in Luther's message broke from the church and started the reformation that would end the age of a monolithic christian church.
The Catholic church did reform much in the way that Luther wanted eventually tho, but by that time the damage was done.
>What went wrong?
Catholicism.
Why do Anglos and Teutons and Norse (basically all Germanics) identify with Greco-Roman accomplishments and the Renaissance? Isn't that basically "le formerly monarchs" meme?
Also, how do you guys feel about Spengler's comparison of Western, Germanic architecture to Byzantine?

Isnt this guy the brother in law of Walter White ?
Spengler is a reductionist memelord who thinks he can explain 5000 years of history with memes, confirmation bias and shit he just pulled out of his ass.
>>505648
Spengler had some interesting ideas (like the relationship between a civilization's mathematics and a worldview) and put forth some valid questions, but he was way off the mark with his assessments of cultures. Honestly the way he treats some civilizations is as if they almost exist in a vacuum.
