Is the United States becoming independent the biggest underdog story in history?
No. It had support from France. It also had uninterruptible supply lines.
Covert America-hate thread?
No. It had support from Spain. It also had its own territory to fight on
Why did he have to invade Poland? It's 1939 I mean, like really.

Any of you guys up to discuss eschatology? All religions welcome.
So, Fyodorov, the great Orthodox philosopher. theorized that possible through technology, the soul, after the restoration of all things, would have absolute control over matter down to the subatomic levels, returning matter to the state of the toy block, the plaything for joy God intended it to be for us. We'd have complete control over our bodies, and in fact all matter in the universe ("God became man so that men could become gods"). The material as it currently stands, is a master over...

1. "TRANSHUMANISM" —THE ALTERATION OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY, AND/OR BIOLOGY, VIA TECHNOLOGICAL MEANS— IS "SATANIC", LEADING TO THE OPPOSITE OF SOUL EXALTATION.
"TRANSHUMANISM" ENTAILS THE NEGATING FIXATION OF THE SOUL IN THE MATERIAL ZONE; THE TECHNOLOGICALLY ALTERED PERSON MAY AS WELL BE DEAD, BOTH IN BODY, AND IN SPIRIT.
2. WHAT IS MEANT BY "TO BE AS A CHILD TO ENTER THE HEAVENS" IS THAT ONE MUST BE A PURE BEING; ID EST: COMPLETELY NOBLE, AND INCORRUPT, PHYSICALLY,...

I love to discuss about the end of times. The point is: will we live long enough? When the armageddon comes, I will sure be already dead

Tell me more about Songhai /his/?
How influential was it to the modern world, Africa and Europe?
Was it as prosperous as some people would believe?
How were the living conditions?
Like most African cultures they were more advanced and prosperous than they get credit for, but again, like most African cultures the impact they had was fleeting
>>520618
Probably the most advanced "black" African civilizations- along with Mali. They were heavily influnced by Islamic culture. unfortunately, this didn't deter their "Muslim brothers" from Morocco from sacking their capital city.
Just more evidence that Arabs post-Abbasid era are treacherous scum that only attack when they are backstabbing or against the weak. Honestly, the Islamic world would now be better without them.
oh and your question OP... they were pretty ebbin I guess...

>The cold war was just a north hemisphere thing, wasn't it?
No. There were a number of proxy wars in Africa and South America.
The cold war was wherever the US felt they needed to get rid of the communism boogeyman, no matter how many people had to get kidnapped, tortured and killed.

The Japanese selected their own Idealized version of themselves, and "they" settled on the image of the Katana toting muh honor samurai, for their contribution to history.
all warrior cultures selected either directly or indirectly, to identify their self idealized history
Its pretty easy.

This was because they all had their guns taken away by the gubment, and they wanted to make it clear it was not because they were pussies or anything.
Why do le redpilled /pol/ converts ignore this verse?
There is neither Jew nor Greek, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28

Because they are Protestant Christians who add race to religious issues.

if you actually brownsed /pol/ you'd actually know opinions are very diverse there you idiot. there are atheists, christians, jews, muslims and hindus. i've met a jap who called himself shinto too. theres leftypol, there are lolbertarians and conservashills. those who are pro israel and pro palestine, those who support both and those who want to watch the both kill each other.
was stalin really evil or just a meme, i dont get it.
i mean he won ww2 industrialized and stabilized the soviet union, some times the price you pay you pay with bodybags
His economic progress is actually pretty unimpressive compared to what democratic countries like Japan and Singapore managed to pull off.
And he's the reason so many Russians died in WW2. He let Hitler mass three million troops on the Russian border and actually believed Hitler when he said it was for an invasion of Britain.
That after killing two thirds of his general staff.
who needs stable economics anyway
>>519114
Yes, commies estabilished succesful education (tsarist russia was super backwards, most of people couldn't read before revolution) and industrialized country. But they were incompetent and inefficient as fuck, especially Stalin who would purge thousands of officers over his paranoia what would ultimately lead to humiliation against Finland and extreme loses in war against Germany among other things. Dont believe memers who claim that hurr durr it was necessary to kill insane amount of civilians in order to have...

Why do some Christians believe that Jesus was divine although he never stated as such nor insinuated?
I have many conversations with Christians and this always seems to be their core belief. That worshipping Jesus will be their way to Heaven and their protection from Hell. Although Jesus never stated this?
>>518892
Apparently, this was a consequence of the First Council of Nicaragua (300 years after Jesus dies). Emperor Constantine wanted a single, universal doctrine that he could impose by imperial fiat, so he called together most of the church leaders of the day (some were notably not invited) and ordered them to hash it out. One of the outcomes of that council was the decision that Jesus was also God.
>>518896
>Nicaragua
Meant Nicaea. Damn autocomplete.
>>518892
This is because most Christians get this belief in the trinity from the Nicean Councel, held in 325 A.D. Emperor Costantine, a known sun-god worshiper and pagan, made the final decision in the debate where only a minority of people in the council believed Jesus was God. This teaching was later enforced violently, with opposers being put to death. Triune gods were popular in ancient Egypt and Rome and many of the idols used by Christendom today such as the cross and mother and baby statues also originated from this and...

What's the deal with Celts and Saxons?
Can someone please explain it to me?
fun fact: there is no word for "English" in Welsh, we still call it and them "Saxons"

That makes sense given that the Angles were further North whereas Saxons ruled Mercia and were thus whom the Welsh were most familiar with.
