A history of the color black
How come that so many religions (at least the monotheistic religions) are so fond of the color black?
While today (only today?) it's seen as a color that is appropriate for funerals or for "goths"?

It's unassuming, plain and humble. For similar reasons Abrahamic religions (particularly Muslims) are also quite fond of white, because they're the two plainest colours possible.
It's a morning color, it's worn by monks in Orthodoxy because it represents that are dead to the world, they have crucified themselves to it for Christ. Becoming a monk is a kind of martyrdom.

Hi there!
You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

You are worse than a tripfag.
