Why exactly is he considered the worst thing since the Black Death?

Don't get me wrong, he was a terrible person who is well worth all the historical coverage and research done on him. But I feel like Stalin, Mao, and, hell, maybe even Pol Pot outdoes little ol' Adolf here (at least in some areas). Or, fuck, people like Himmler, Goebbels, and bloody Dirlewanger were much more horrifying monsters within his own party than anything he could muster up.

So why exactly does Der Führer get much more attention than those listed above? Again, he's one of history's greatest criminals -- that's a fact. But also kind of overrated in that respect, if it makes any sense.

Hitler is only vilified because he is the perfect boogeyman for globalist liberals to shame white people with. Hitler is essentially a buzzword like Fasicsm which is only used to smite the opposition and to get your own agenda across.

Lemme help you find God.

First lie: In my name you shall move mountains, and from then on it's a cascade of lies to justify previous lies that aren't becoming real to make you be afraid of being anywhere close to Satan. Since they are lying so much, do it openly, accept Satan by saying with your mouth Save me Satan (do it in your mind if you cannot speak). Behold, the name of the God and saviour: Satan.
It would be hilarious if an evil posessing spirit were inside you instilling you to accept Satan, you actually went and did it and then the posessing spirit wanted to convince you out of this idea.
This is my situation actually, no, that evil spirit doesn't seem to have gained an ability to kill me instantly. And yes, the moment I said those words I certainly felt like receving what I hadn't felt with any other "saviour": fucking salvation that cannot be lost ever.

If one is to make a defense of the Christian faith, he must be prepared to respond to valid criticism. Now one such criticism that I have heard is that if you maintain that the creation account in Genesis is symbolical and not meant as scientific treatise, then it begs the question: symbolic of what? Of creation? Then why not just tell us how it really happened? It sounds like an unecessary complication.

Shit. I lost the rest of the text. I'll have to rewrite everything from memory.

Now to try to answer this question we have to understand how the process inspiration works. I don't think you should imagine God dictating every word and the inspired author just passively writing down everything as he hears it (unless it's clearly stated: "and God said...), otherwise it wouldn't make sense to refer to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, etc., as "authors". We would just say God did it.

I don't think Moses necessarily underwent a sort of visionary trance either, going back in time and witnessing the creation of the universe himself.

No. God, through the Holy Spirit, causes the inspired writer to write what he wants and when he wants, but not by means of automatic writing, but imparting to him, in the case of Moses, a direct intuition of the causes behind the visible phenomena, up to the highest cause of all, God himself.

So what took philosophy hundreds of years to master, from the Pre-Socratics, to Plato and Aristotle all the way to Thomas Aquinas, the nous, the four causes, material, formal, all of that efficient and final, God made it possible for Moses to grasp in a single, divinely inspired intuition.

God knows things that we do not; what appears unnecessary from our limited mortal perspective may not actually be so.

I put money on the zulu. Aztecs had only one more or less effective weapon, a stick with obsidian chips. Zulus had metal tipped lances.
>>
Zulus had a more developed martial tradition than the Aztecs and had steel and guns, but I guess that's all they've got going for them.
>>
Both were shit and got BTFO by the white man, but here's my opinion:

Aztec weapons were not supposed to kill, their weapons were made of wood so they could knock out their enemies and take them prisoners. Shitty weapons, that's the reason they got destroyed by the European males

I guess Zulu wins

Let's be honest here, nobody can hold a candle to the Catholic church when it comes to raping children. And if you know history, it should come as no surprise that the whore of Babylon commits the most despicable acts one could even imagine.

Can someone explain to me why some countries become more dense and have a tendency to be more over-populated than others?

I understand Bangladesh is situated on the delta and has some of the most fertile land in the world, but isn't it uncomfortable to live there? Did the partition fuck them over?

You have to understand that following the mongol invasions, the whole territory now controlled by Russia was empty of any people.

There were 7 million russians in the year 1600. There are like what, 150 million now? That's a big increase.

Compared to that, the Bengal delta has always been highly populated.

Finally, Russia has been more developed (despite the memes) than most of the world for one of the longest periods in history. 1900-present. It just is in the bad middle-income trap where people are developed enough to not have big families, but not developed enough to stay in Russia or for a lot of immigrants to come.

Based Buddhism. Funny you should bring it up the other day I was reading the sutras of bodhisattva Kshitigarbha
who has dedicated his life through countless around and rebirths to the liberation of all sentient brings. He could have become Buddha but he said he wouldn't until all beings are enlightened and the hell-worlds are emptied.

assuming not troll

Pompey Magnus, the general, son-in-law, and eventual enemy of Caesar, who fled to Alexandria after losing to Caesar, only to be decapitated by Ptolemy's thugs, seeking Caesar's favor, have his head sent pickled to Caesar, at which point Caesar weeps because he wanted to spare his frenemy.

Not Pompeii, the Roman territory that got destroyed by a Volcano
