Explain whiggism as used typically on this board. My looking into it does not result in something that makes contextual sense.

Herbert Butterfield (1965) The Whig Interpretation of History

OP said 'explain,' not 'Point me to a document I can spend hours reading.' If you don't want to discuss these things, I don't understand why you would post on this board (aside from a ghoulish desire to argue with people and give Australian historiography a bad name) or work in an academic and (at least conceptually, so on the one level that matters to you) education-related setting.

Let's talk about how the British control our "just us" system using fraud, identity theft, violence, and non disclosure. "there is nothing so fearful as ignorance in action" this judge wants to buck the system and I spent the last 3 years verifying everything she's taking about.
When corporation and state are merged is called Fascism
"A statute is a legislated rule of a society given the force of law."
So tell me, what is the name of your society?
If you can not name a thing it ceases to exist.
If I say I'm going to my friends house, and you say oh which friend what's her name?
If I can't answer, do I really have a friend? No.
So someone a answer this very simple question.
What is the name of your society?
Think about it, ask your parents, ask your friends, ask everyone you know, I promise no one can answer.

Why is Zeus and Jupiter grouped together as if they are the same person?

They are the same person, their name is even cognate
I'll just leave this here
What is it with math genius's and hair?
>>471854
Hair is actually brain fungus that feeds off of brain wastes. As you use your brain it gives off more waste and the fungus grows bigger. This is why these smart people have better hair. It is harmful which is why people recommend you cut your hair.
So are you trying to lead us into a debate about the Leibniz–Newton calculus controversy?

What does he get right and what does he get wrong? Does he point out uncomfortable truths about American history or is he just a vehicle for self-flagellating white progressives to get off on themselves?
Everything he says in 100% true
A lot of what he writes about is factually true but his ideological spin is suspect. His argument for reparations is poor, his idea of "white supremacy" is silly and overly-academic. His writing is very poor. At his best he's valuable for explaining things like post-War housing policy but that stuff isn't groundbreaking work or anything -- anyone slightly familiar with radical politics should have known of that stuff way before Coates started writing, so I don't see what his value as an intellectual is except

Could a "Rabbinical Christianity" exist?
One big problem I have with Christianity is the insistence on Orthodoxy. Why should everybody be expected to believe the same way? Why should heretics be punished for questioning the Orthodoxy? Judaism is cool because it's determined by experts rather than preachers. Even among the ultra-Orthodox, Rabbis are expected to question previous interpretation of scripture and find new ways to apply old teachings to modern life.
I feel like it would be really great if Christian preachers were also expected to interpret...

Reformed Christianity is pretty close to what you're describing although there are some elements that aren't up for debate (the Trinity for example) but because there is no central authority (other than Scripture) like in Roman Catholicism or Orthodoxy there is a lot of room for discussions.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this how Messianic Judaism works?

Literally the best villain ever. Because of Confucian insistence on Ren and De, he couldn't just act tyrannically. So we have a very nuanced character, someone who knows how to motivate the common soldiers, who understands basic psychology, and who looks after the families of his followers, even the ones he kills for political gain.
It's hilarious that western works haven't learned from him, working for a villain is always "you have failed me for the last time" kind of stuff, whereas this guy was actually on top of his game and there was actually...

Are there any Gnostics on /his/?
I've been studying Gnosticism for a while, and I have this particular question for you: Why can't the True God do something about the Demiurge's reality?
I mean: Why don't the True God save the imprisoned souls?
The Demiurge is not all-powerful, after all.
So why do we need Gnosis?
Why they sent Lucifer and Jesus to help us, instead of tearing down the prison and just free us?
While I think Gnosticism is a really interesting topic (and answers a lot of questions regarding to the Abrahamic...

Sorry for my English!
>>471025
Why doesn't the true God save the imprisoned souls
Would be right
>>471008
Another question: Do we have to leave the Demiurge's reality or there are ways to live as created beings, but in peace and without being prisoners?
I mean there must be some kind of a "red pill", right?
If some spirits could enter reality, then our immortal spirit could also help us to... I don't know... to aid us, maybe?
But not in a purely spiritual way.
Maybe this is how occult systems work.

Would it be false to assume that most """"""""""""""Christians"""""""""""""" in Europe had all these weird fucking ways of torture because they were simply sadistic assholes who enjoyed it? I know that all of it wasn't necessarily invented by Christians, but just the fact that they had all those weird "trials by ordeal", flaying etc. still in use is fucked up.

heretic detected
Well, isn't suffering a very important part of Christian ideology? The martyrdom of Christ, suffering makes you holy, etc. etc. That's why there are Christian people who self-flagellate as well.
>>470907
Yes, op. Pagan Europeans chucking people in metal bulls to bake alive or nailing them up in sticks or trees was the fault of Christians
Had Islam ever been tolerant or peaceful ?
>>470819
Define "peaceful" and "tolerant",
>>470850
The ideology adopted by early christians and the current Western world (aka "you're trying to kill me but I still love you lol")
no, they get triggered very easily to be muslim is to submit to discord.
How come Dali was so cool and chill all the time but Picasso was so depressed looking and bored?
Didnt know if to post in /IC/ but decided to come here because that place is full of weaboos
because Dali was a cuck and a hack
>>470790
Dali was rich from a rich family. He didn't have to worry about a single shit that weren't his acid trip dreams, his paintings and wanking while thinking about his waifu. He didn't give a shit about the rest of the world.
Picasso was more involved with reality.
Picasso banged a lot of girls I think
