Did anything ever happen with Lithuania that's even slightly interesting. Who gives a fuck about Lithuania?
They were one of the last places in Europe to Christianize, so that's pretty neat.

We can't prove (yet) a God doesn’t exist (actually "isn't", since he was before existance). The real question is: if he exists (is) why should he be a moral entity?
You mean why should we expect them to be conform to our moral values or why should their moral values be taken as objectively correct or superior to ours by default?
>>1371670
Because the structure of our physical existence is built on laws. Logos is the very first thing in our world.
Human society has a fundamental structure as well which brings peace, stability, and a healthy life to those who abide by it. Humans have the ability to disregard this and act in an immoral way.

Am I the only one who gets severely depressed whenever he contemplates European history? I look at this continent of grand nations, Great Men and titanic achievement, but what I don't see in it is a future. We spent centuries fighting eachother for small scraps of European land, establishing colonies around the world and for what? All of it is lost now, each European nation more irrelevant than the other. And in terms of territory and demographics we're negligible and others will surpass us. What are we before the might of the USA, Russia, China and soon India and perhaps even Brazil, Mexico and some of the major African countries? Everything will be for nought, and the rulers wil become the ruled.
Even this EU project, one with a bigger chance of failing than succeeding, would not see us surpass China, India, the US and perhaps even Russia in the long run. On top of that even if the EU succeeds, it is not based for any love of European identities but hatred of it. A combination of mass migration and Americanization will destroy our identities and replace it with some non-offensive globalized identity.
This, the constant fear that Europe will no longer matter in the future, is perhaps the biggest reason that I believe Napoleon should've won, that it was a cruel twist of fate that the Russian invasion ended so horribly. Had it gone different, we as unified Europeans with a clear, unified culture would look back upon the Napo-.. Great Wars of European Unification in the same way the Chinese as one people look back at the Three Kingdoms period.
I can't be alone in this melancholy, right?
Why would you want European territorial aggrandisement at the expense of European culture? Best case scenario imo is an isolationist, cultural nationalist Europe in which states focus on the welfare of their own people.
Empire was a mistake. Immigration was a mistake. The EU was a mistake.

Tbh, Europe being in any sort of lead position in the world was luck to begin with, don't be sad that it is gone, smile because it happened.

What does this even mean? Is it subtle b8?
Is there anyone on youtube similar to lindybeige but with actual knowledge about the topics they talk about?
Does a day go by where /his/ does not talk about lindybeige?
>>1371121
It started with Lindybeige himself shilling his videos, one thread every other week, then, recently, his droning followers spam him of their own volition due to unconscious conditioning by Lindybeige's own shilling.

Have you ever done any ancestry research?
I decided to follow my family name and patriline and ended up all the way back to 1630s Salem, MA. after my 10x great grandfather came over from England. He was killed in an Indian raid, and his wife supposedly was a Quaker that protested the Puritan church by stripping naked in public (part of the so called "Naked Quakers") and got whipped for it. Some women with my name (though I haven't been able to connect them to my line) were accused of witchcraft during the trials, but released. My 5x great grandfather fought in the revolutionary war and was a potter. His son possibly fought in the war of 1812 but the only record I've found were orders to report to militia at the time. My 3x great grandfather fought in the civil war, and he worked in a shoe factory. I found a picture of his son, my great-great grandfather, taken in 1872.
This was all pretty cool to me since I just assumed my family came in the 19th century immigration waves.
What have you found out about your family history?
Any tips on how best to research this stuff?
>>1370633
Check out your city website or local library. My city council for example runs a monthly genealogy workshop. You'd be surprised at the amount of information you can learn if you just look for it.
Dad's side came over to the States in 1925 from Ireland, where they had been since the 11th century. Mom's side was also from Ireland, came to Quebec in the 1850s and moved to the US in the 1910s
>>1370648
I'll have to check that out. There's a lot more that I want to find out.

Did photorrealistic art only developed in Europe?
No it predominantly developed in the United States in the 60s

Paintings? I think so. Statues definitely not

But those are not photo realistic.

If you have a question like
>how big was hitler's dick
>what???
>who did what????
>when was
Please direct it to this thread
>>1371704
You know, I never felt the urge to ask before, but just how big was Hitler's dick?
>>1371708
There are many theories
I think he was average sized, there is evidence he enjoyed a regular sexual life with Eva Braun
>>1371715
How big was Stalin's dick then?
If they were planning on war with both France and Russia,why didn't they focus on Russia first instead of trying some YOLO Schliefen plan that was risky even on the planning board.
>Because it wouldn't stop the french
They stopped them IRL even when they were distracted.
>>1369644
They did fortify the area and go all out against POLAND.
They didn't go all out against the Russkies because they were allied with the Soviets at the time.
>>1369644
Because Germany thought Franxe would be a pushover like I'm 1870, and that Russia would be tough to invade and occupy like when Napoleon tried it.
The strategic misapprehension, that France was the weaker enemy and not Russia, underlies most of Germany's early war strategy.
>>1369656
this has to be bait
Right in the middle of some random ass primitive tribe with nothing but a survival knife, your memories and all the immunizes you'll need to survive. Humans are basic hunter gather tribes with primitive tools and huts but the women are kinda evolved and bangable.
What do?
>>1363903
Also post details
>>1363903
Die of tooth decay or maybe get killed by another tribe member.
>>1363903
Probably get raped a whole bunch. Try to implement my survival knowledge from years of hiking and camping. Get raped some more. Try to use blonde hair and green eyes to some advantage, but being unable to speak the language I'll get raped even more. Try to learn to fit into the society, try to help them with my knowledge of fishing and trapping techniques, but by then I'll already be raped to death.
Does anyone have a link for acess to all of this guys podcast. Probably the best history podcast ive ever heard.
Bonus points to wrath of khans link
There should be a torrent up on TPB that has everything up to episode 48, which is the cutoff for stuff that can be freely downloaded IIRC.
Drop them and get some university lectures/great courses.
>And YHVH said to Abram, “Lech Lecha (go forth, but literally go to yourself) from your land and from your birthplace and from your father’s house, to the land that I will show you. (Genesis 12:1)
>All of this is intimated in the layered phrase that gives this week’s Torah portion its name: Lech Lecha. Lech means “go”. Lecha means “to you” or “for you”. This phrase is difficult to translate, but we might say “Get thee out!” or “Get yourself going!” However, Lech lecha literally means “go to yourself”. The journey of Abraham and Sarah is a spiritual journey, an inward quest for a new way of seeing the world, a journey of perception. As our spiritual father and mother, Abraham and Sarah bequeath to us a sublime idea: that all of reality is informed by a unifying Presence, and that Presence is calling us to greater purpose and awareness. Deeply aware of the ineffability of that presence, our tradition names it YHVH, Being Itself, or Life Unfolding. Each and every one of us is a unique expression of Life Unfolding, a Child of God, we might say, and God’s greatest desire, as it were, is that we know that truth. We are finite beings who sense the presence of the Infinite moving within us and all around us. That awareness calls us to fulfill our potential as expressions of infinite life. This calling turns out to be extremely difficult and elusive, and requires of us courage, tenacity, humility and faith. In the Jewish tradition, Abraham is our spiritual father because he perceives this truth, heeds the call and embarks on the journey.

Abraham is my spiritual father, because I am a Christian.
If you are a Jew, Abraham is not your spiritual father. You are in the synagogue of satan.

Not so much, no. I have no inheritance in the land of Israel.
I have something infinitely better.
Im curious to know more about Satanism. Ive read The Holy Bible ( New/Old Testament and King James Version. Also the Book of Mormon. Why do people convert to Satanism? It sounds good until you get to the end of the Satanic Bible and then it doesnt sound so good. Im very curious to know all i can learn from /his/ about this to be able to build my knowledge of religion in society. I figured this would be the best place to post this since so many of you are well read in religious text.
>>1375075
Just delete this thread and head on over to >>>/x/. This is their bread and butter.
>>1375087
But i thought this board was for religion?? Not supernatural.
>>1375075
What type of Satanism are you inquiring about?
Levayean Satanism is just atheism with rules and ritual.
