Literally everything he did was wrong.
Wasn't he responsible for Russia joining WWI?
What was the most death metal thing to ever happen, /his/?
I think it was the Münster Rebellion.

The Infernal Columns in the Véndee were some horror tier shit.

I'd like to read the Bible, as it is an important Western text.
It looks like NRSV is the best translation.
Can /his/ give me recommendations? My mom suggested the Navarre edition, but that might be too expensive.
I was a philosophy major in college.
Orthodox NT is the most literal (I'm not just memeing, you can tell because it doesn't translate "presbyter" as "priest", but as "elder", so it's clearly not biased), but there is not Orthodox translation of the OT yet.
NRSV is very good. NKJV and KJV are also very solid. Pretty much any mainstream translation apart from those is terrible, they are either heavily Catholic biased, heavily Protestant biased, or liberal, or some other agenda. I'm not trying to say those don't have agendas, but they are very minimal compared to the rest, and the NRSV definitely is done in good faith.

Whoops, correction. RSV is done in good faith. NSRV is complete garbage, do NOT touch it. It uses a very contextual translation which allowed the translators to force their exegesis into the text. RSV is great though.

Why isn't this done more often?
I get why there are US places named after European cities and holy places from the bible, but what's up with places like Lebanon, Thebes, and Memphis?
And you have Black Muricans claimed themselves descendant of Pharaohs
>Lebanon
that is a holy place in the bible you goof
>Thebes
never heard of it
>Memphis
founded by Andrew Jackson, named because the Mississippi river was the American Nile.
For the duration of Lent, I, along with probably most of the Orthodox here, will not be posting on 4chan, Lent begins this Sunday evening, and is as customary in the Orthodox Church, we beg one another for forgiveness for all transgressions to inaugurate Lent, and that is why it is called Forgiveness Sunday.
So here is a thread for us to ask one another for forgiveness for our harsh words, our pride, our weaknesses.
Forgive me, /his/, both those who love me, and those who hate me, I ask for your forgiveness.
Let there be no harsh words or quarreling in this thread.

Was Aristotle black?
As can be seen from the manuscript (13th century) Aristotle is shown teaching Alexander The Great (notice the difference in color).
here, a sculpture of Aristotle showing African features

Is it possible that Aristotle was black/african? If so, then he would be the second great black greek after Socrates.

Are you so mad that North Africans were originally Black that you made this thread to shitpost?

The Arab Moors like Aristotle so they painted him as their skin color.
This is like saying that Jesus was Chinese because in 13th centuary China they drew him as a Chink.

Right. By far
What would have happened if dinosaurs never went extinct?
Would humans still have become the dominant species or would we have domesticated them and used them for cockfights and such?
My guess is that mammals wouldn't have had the huge opportunity for explosive evolution that they did because most of their competitors wouldn't die out. A big ecological niche was taken up by dinosaurs.
This would mean humans never coming around or at least taking a lot longer.
So instead of Beefsteak, now i could chose Dinosteak in restaurant's menu ?
humans would live in fortified islands, awsum
How did exceptionally violent and bloodthirsty cultures, like Assyria and the Aztecs, successfully exist for any amount of time? Their historical behavior seems so overtly villainous.
>>824841
Ask that to their faces, see what happens.

How retarded is this guy?
>Jesus actually wasn't peaceful, otherwise he wouldn't be crucified. Crucifixion was only reserved for violent criminals, so THE GOSPELS ARE A LIE!
>But how do you know he was crucified?
>Well, the Gospels say so :DDDD
>>824420
Dunno, man. I heard he flipped a table once. Sounds pretty violent to me. Wouldn't want him in my neighbor.
>>824420
>How retarded is this guy?
He's Muslim, for one. And not a very good one, either.
>>824429
Don't forget he followed it up with whipping people for practice their religion in their temple. Clearly a violent person whose also emotionally unstable.
How true is the claim that France is useless at war? is it true that they have never won a war and have always been bailed out by America throughout history?
>>824371
If not murica then england,
>mfw crusades took place purely because france got its asshole pushed in by shit skins
>>824371
It's all a meme France has often ranked above the British when it comes to war.
What single thing do you most admire about another country that doesn't often get said?
I admire most about Germany their impeccable military history throughout all of time ever since there were German states. From the time of Frederick the Great to the achievements of the nation during WW2 (in which the gigantic leviathan nations of the Soviet Union AND the United States AS WELL AS effectively every other nation in Europe had to pile on top of them to defeat them), their military record is, without a doubt, the absolute greatest in human history.
I never see Germany mentioned in discussions of military records however, which is odd.
>>824338
Germany is overrated
Iran produces great fruits and nuts; pistachios, apricots, walnuts, etc.
>>824357
Actually Germany is severely underrated seeing how mainstream education downplays their progress and shames them for it.
