Is this board moderated at all any more?
So many threads aren't even /pol/ with dates, they are straight up /pol/.
>Democracy vs Monarchy
>Why are right-wingers manly and left-wingers girly?
>Ask a communist anything.
>Why is academia still so full of Marxists?
etc, leaving aside the which flavor of the Neapolitan icecream that is Christianity, atheism shitposting, etc that technically belongs here but should have its own containment...

How is any of that shit '/pol/'? That adjective doesn't even mean anything with the way you hugboxers use it.
Kick out humanities and make this a history board
Problem solved
We should make a new imageboard website with actual moderation if this board continues this way
That way, the humanities could also be compartmentalized
What are the biggest differences and similarities between Ramaden and Lent?
>>1273901
People actually practice Ramadan.
>>1273914
People actually practice lent too. I know a guy that every year during lent he only drinks a bottle of Gatorade and one bowl of broth a day.
>>1273901
Muslims give up food and drink from sunrise and eat again at sunset. In lent you just give up something and most people just stick to giving it up in a half assed manner.

>holy
>catholic

I recently attended a wedding at a Presbyterian church and that line was still in their creed when I was skimming through the missal waiting for the ceremony to start.
>"Christ committed adultery first of all with the women at the well about whom St. John tells us. Was not everybody about Him saying: ‘Whatever has He been doing with her?’ Secondly, with Mary Magdalen, and thirdly with the women taken in adultery whom He dismissed so lightly. Thus even, Christ who was so righteous, must have been guilty of fornication before He died."

Pause the humanities-STEM shitflinging for a moment and make way for a 4cc thread.

http://implyingrigged.info/wiki/Main_Page
Since we're still around the aftermath of the Spring Babby Cup I think it's time to listen to a lot of early calls to totally revamp sections of our roster. In light of this I'm going to hold a new poll for our roster to prepare it early for Autumn and invitationals before then. The top 19* voted suggestions...

Medieval murder rabbit?

Murder Rabbit is a good idea, some other (shittier) suggestions:

Which Celtic tribe was the most successful?
>>1272829
The Irish, because they are the only ones that actually have their own country. Well, PART of their own country. The most profitable part is still held by Anglo-Normans.
>>1272829
Define success.
I would also say the Irish, the basis that they're the only ones still existing.
The Welsh did okay too.

what?
Why can't muslim pray in their native languages? Why are they restricted to arabic? Would more people join islam if there wasn't the requirement to pray in arabic?
>>1267863
For a like time church-led prayer in Catholicism was done in Latin.
I imagine like in the Catholic church most non-Arab Muslims just pretend to know what they're on about when praying in the liturgical language.
Because if it did, they claims of universality would be true.
But Islam is an Arab supremacist religion.
>>1267863
Islam is concerned with corruption of its beliefs by way of mistranslation. To prevent this, the (purportedly) same words that Muhammad received and transmitted are to be used when the Koran is recited

Anyone collect medals or have some saved in the family? I have British medals from WW1 and 2 and a couple others. I've wanted an Iron Cross for years and bought the one pictured recently, surprised how much more expensive they've become, but I did go to a legit dealer to buy in person as there are so many counterfeits going around. I'm not sure whether to get a WW1 cross as well or to focus on 3rd reich. Predictably that's more valuable despite being more recent.
What have you got or would like to get?
>conspicuous consumption
lol
... I have my grandfathers' medals, including a WW2 iron cross. But why the fuck would you buy other people's medals?
>>1276920
Hmm my great-uncle has inherited a Légion d'honneur medal, as I recall, and there may be a Napoleonic uniform tagged to it too. It dates back from an ancestor that served under Napoleon.
And otherwise, my grandmother has entrusted us with knowledge that there was a cousin in the family that was a general in WW1 (french army) and that probably means that he received a medal at some point. Hence, I'm pretty certain that if I hunted down that part of the family, I could buy off the medal from them.
But...

Is culture an expression of biology?
It is not exceptionally an expression of biology, none more than conventional blushing or being alive are.
No.

To be fair, everything that you do or everyone does is an expression of biology.
Free will is a delusion.
What was his fucking problem?
>>1275467
Disdain for corruption.
Had an overinflated sense of his own sinfulness and made up a heresy to free himself from self-oppression.
Actually read a biography of Luther some time. He was kind of a miserable git. CONSTANTLY going to Confession for even minor sins, to the point that his confessor told him to cut it out. He was obsessed with sin and perfection. He was also not exactly the brightest of bulbs, so the two competing themes jammed together and we got Sola Fide. Then everything went to hell.
Guilty of having huge fucking balls.
>Go before highest officials in the country at imperial diet
>"Unless I am convinced by the testimony of the Scriptures or by clear reason (for I do not trust either in the pope or in councils alone, since it is well known that they have often erred and contradicted themselves), I am bound by the Scriptures I have quoted and my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and will not recant anything, since it is neither safe nor right to go against conscience....

How does /his/ feel about Men At Arms books?
A bunch of them are available here http://lalegion-pictures.com/media/pdf/ as PDFs if you've never read one.
I like the concept, but you can't fit a whole lot of pictures or info into a 50 page book.

Their edition of the paraguayian war was pretty good.

Looking for the one about the byzantine empire during the Macedonians.
Does Nietzsche's description of the origination of Christian morality in the Genealogy have any validity?
>>1275193
If you are a spiritual person, only the wisdom of an enlightened sage-like holy person will do.
If you don't really care for world religion and spirituality someone like Nietzsche would probably make sense to you.
>>1275207
I'm asking about historical validity.
I dunno about Christianity, but we've learned a shit ton about the Greeks since Nietzsche wrote about Greek religion and morality. He simply shouldn't be used to analyze religions, anyway, because all he has to say is negative; a positive analysis of religion has no place for his shit.
What is the cultural effect that ads have on a society other than more business for the company that made it?
Promoting consumerism as an end in itself.
Citizens now more informed about goods and services that allows them to made rational economic choice.
>>1275129
retards think that ads manipulate them in imposing standards created by mad men
in fact, mad men take an underground culture, as people say today, and expose it. the latest example is the geek to sell electronic goods and internet access.
this has two effects:
-normies discover a new trend which fuel their craving of hedonism through love of exoticism, to better hate boredom
-the people in the underground culture are pissed off, because ''normies took our memes'' and turned our...

Let's be honest, how would they feel about Islam and Islamics?
Especially in today's geopolitical climate.
>>1274932
They would absolutely be against it considering how followers of Islam have harmed Germany and it's people. It would probably end up like this movie.
>>1274932
They would probably convert
What is the likelihood that a good chunk of Ashkenazi DNA is descended from them?
very likely, unless we're talking about who is responsible for the death of christ, then they are all definitely 100% descended from the ancient hebrews. so yes and no depending on when it's convenient.
I read somewhere that Ashkenazi DNA is more similar to Italians.

Somewhere seems to be the most cited journal on this board.
