Assuming scientism, that is a metaphysics in itself, you know
How does /his/ feel about the theory of Kyriarchy?
>Kyriarchy, pronounced /ˈkaJriɑːrki/, is a social system or set of connecting social systems built around domination, oppression, and submission. The word was coined by Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza in 1992 to describe her theory of interconnected, interacting, and self-extending systems of domination and submission, in which a single individual might be oppressed in some relationships and privileged in others. It is an intersectional extension of the idea of patriarchy beyond gender.[1] Kyriarchy encompasses sexism, racism, homophobia, classism, economic injustice, colonialism, ethnocentrism, militarism, and other forms of dominating hierarchies in which the subordination of one person or group to another is internalized and institutionalized.[2][3]
>Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza (born 17 April 1938, Cenad) is a Romanian-born German, Roman Catholic[1] feminist theologian, who is currently the Krister Stendahl Professor of Divinity at Harvard Divinity School.
I am slightly surprised she's use the term "kyrios" so negatively, seeing as how it is synonymous with "God" in Christian hymns and theology.

It's the next logical step for feminists, since we demonstrably do not live in the kind of patriarchy they claim we do.
>>806596
What kind is that, exactly?

>demonstrably
Demonstrate it.

Why is Pétain hated and considered a traitor?
1.I'm not french
2.This is not bait
>>806508
Because he came to power with the express purpose of signing an armistice. He argued that the war was lost in France and so they should give up before things got worse for them instead of fighting on. When the Free French retook the country, that wasn't exactly looked kindly upon.

>most of the worst things out of his "leadership" were ill-written hate fueled documents he was forced to sign in the middle of the night while being an 80 years old
He did that of his own free will. See the Riom Trial.

>. He argued that the war was lost in France and so they should give up before things got worse for them instead of fighting on.
Is he really blamed for this? Verdun claimed 1,25 million casualties in both french and german army and it lasted 10 month. In 1940 it was captured in 20 hours. Maginot like was dead. The british were drived away. Panzers storming everywhere. All france military and political leadership was still shocked with ww1, understanding that fighting on was useless was the only logical thing that happened in the whole second world war.
Riom trial was extremely bad and he sure made mistake. But wasn't he a sort of huge scapegoat?
>says he couldn't abandon french people in need of his help

Why should I believe you and follow Jesus, instead of believing this other guy who told me to follow Muhammad?
You both seem to have the same arguments, about your holy scriptures and prime movers.

Look at Christian influenced civilizations.
Now look at Muslim influenced civilizations.

Thoughts on Hannibal
He crossed the fucking alps when he left from Libya, It's like if Russia invaded America through Utah.
it's not really.

Is there any evidence to suggest that Joan of Arc was mentally ill?
>>806200
She was a woman, and thus sociopathic by default.
cheerleading is not a mental problem

I wonder what she really looked like
Why was Poland spared, /his/? Was it providence?

>Why was Poland spared, /his/? Was it providence?
Memes aside, it was becase:
1. It was a time of prosperity and good harvests. Better fed population = less susceptible to diseases.
2. It was ruled by a very smart king - Kazimir III, knows as the Great. The king ordered quarantine of all merchants entering the kingdom, thus blocking the disease from spreading along the trade routes.

>Because it was internally balkanised underdeveloped shithole.
Bullshit, it was just entering a golden age.
When we think of colonisation we think of GB, Spain, Portugal and France. What are some other nations that tried colonisation in Americas? I read somewhere that Scotland tried it but wasn't successful. Why didn't the Ottomans tried it? Or Austria? Or the Netherlands?
I love to read about the colonization age.
I've never heard of Scotland trying, but I assume they failed because lack of funds. It wasn't easy to start a colony.
I would wager that the Ottomans didn't because they were way too far away from the continent to try. But I'm not sure why the Ottomans didn't try for Africa or maybe even some of the Asian islands.
Austria I'm not sure.

Why were the Byzantines such special little snowflakes?
I have no idea why anyone today would cling desperately to some 1000 year old narrative. from some time and place that has nothing to do with them.
>>805704
>narrative
it's simply the truth
I have no idea why anyone would so vehemently attack the truth, must be turks
>>805670
Absolutely the opposite of what actually happened. The Byzantines claimed they were the true heirs of Rome (which they were culturally and socially), a claim contested by the West thanks to the Holy Roman Empire.
>>DUDE ORTHODOXY LMAO
>implying that wasn't much more common in the Middle Ages
Are Romanians really Romans n shiet?
No , and stop this meme immidiatly.
Romanized Thracians if I recall right.

Who should be held responsible for killing Jesus?
(please no overtly anti-semitic memery)
How about himself?
French Canadians.
>>805345
Well he didn't exist so no-one.
Obviously Jesus was a scumbag but did he deserve this?
Isn't this exactly what he wanted?
>>805264
Only in Christian meme theology, obviously the real Jesus didn't want to be crucified.

>19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”
>20 They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” 21 But the temple he had spoken of was his body. 22 After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they believed the scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken.
Seems a legit explanation, honest! It turned out Jesus wasn't talking about the actual temple he was talking about his body, he wanted to be killed!!!
Thoughs on the dashing fellow on the right?
>>805164
He did literally nothing wrong, unlike the guy on the left.
Permanent cause of butthurt to commies. The success of Finland, a former part of the Russian Empire, undermines the whole narrative about the Bolsheviks "lifting" Russia from a Dark Ages it wouldn't have left otherwise.

Hey naziboo, did you know that nazis lost ww2!
What's wrong with Slav's Nationalism ? Why they prefer being tiny irrelevant shit holes instead of a strong unitary entity ?
made up countries for made up nations by made up histories
Following that logic the whole world should unite in a meganation
>>804995
Only the genocide against alboshits and mudslims can unite us.
Historically speaking, why was corruption and moral decay such a difficult issue to combat?
What do you mean by moral decay?
because corruption spreads and its upto blind luck if your prefered candidate could do the job
the more you have those, the bigger chance nothing gets done, eventually reaching a point when the state becomes disfunctional
moral decay im not entirely sure about, i mean raping and pillaging is morally wrong, but it fuelled empires for a long time
>>804981
Have you ever read about the last days of the Roman empire?
