I don't think Styx is very knowledgeable about Christianity at all. He has a very basic bitch condescending understanding of it.

He's at least better than the atheist like AIU that just sit there and ask condescending questions

And then say they don't want to talk about whatever your counter point is

styx has a knowledge of ancient stuff / occult stuff and anything esoteric, I don't think he's ever studied christianity or any religion extensively, he seems like he's more into the weird/spooky stuff

I’ve seen some of his stuff on it, he definitely has

yea

He just doesn’t go hard on it because he likes religious people

he has read the bible multiple times apparently

Yeah. I’m not a big Styx guy but he definitely knows his stuff about Christianity

but he never read the summa

well then he doesnt know shit

Let's talk books

People are reading city of God

People are reading The Confessions

People are reading Guns Germs and Steel

People are reading The Diary of Anne Frank

People are reading Gregory Malchuk's manifesto

People are reading Kanye's Twitter

People are reading Dialectic of Enlightenment

wtf

what is that shit list with cuckold shit

It's a meme

I like how it goes from trump to siege

grrrrrrrrr

Fellas I'm having trouble deciding what I want to read next. Been thinking about starting on Nick's list or one of these two.

Fwiw I've already read everything on the top row but the Bible and Leviathan of the second list

has anyone read Fear and Trembling?

what are some good books about jews that were written by catholics?

The Book of Acts and Romans

@Sleightology

anybody read

"Who Are We"

by Huntington?

@Polybius ayy, I started on that same list (the second one) and gradually built my own list, I'm basically doing the start with the greeks meme now. A lot of the books in the political section are books I'm just going to read a summary of, like the Calvin one and some of the gay enlightenment shit

@Callaghan I read The Sickness Unto Death and decided I want to read earlier philosophy first before I delve into Kierkegaard fully (apparently a lot of what he writes is indirectly responding to Hegel)

@Sleightology look up E Michael Jones

@Solipsistic Vinarchy no but I’ve read other stuff by him

Not the most exciting but definitely good read

@Mephisto is it really required to slog through hegel for kiekegaard?

@Callaghan no but Kierkegaard is very big brained and I feel like an absolute brainlet reading it. I can follow most of it, but I want to get more familar with basic philosophical terminology first. Im going to read some of the greeks extensively then go for hume, leibniz, (((spinoza))), kant and hegel

@Mephisto there must be copies with annotations for brainlets right?

Probably, I just used penguin classics and the introduction helped a lot, if you dont understand the autistic terminology you won't be able to follow most of it

@Callaghan sickness unto death is very good book though

What are some good books on WW2

Gimme like 5 or so

Plox

Stanford.edu usually has good essays summarising philosophy

https://plato.stanford.edu/archives/fall2012/entries/kierkegaard/

@NormanLord this is really good thanks

Np

Very good piece on cognitivism vs non cognitivism if anyone is interested in jurisprudence

on the same site?

Yup just search it

Should pin that tbh

other unifags probably already know about it but http://www.bartleby.com/ has a great collection of literature

Any good books on Jelqing?

>jelqing

@Mephisto I can send you over notes I took from a class on neitzsche, Hume, Aristotle, Epictetus and them. It covers all that terminology and it’s pretty concise

Read liberalism is a sin

Very good book by a very learned Spanish priest

has anyone read "The Dictator Pope: The Inside Story of the Francis Papacy"

@shinjitsu sure, that'd be helpful, thanks

@everyone Fellas at the book store right now. Has anyone read City of God or The Screwtape Letters? Wanted to get Mere Christianity but they don't have

False alarm I found Mere Christianity. Rate the stack lads.

I read The Screwtape Letters in middle school

@Bigfoot what did you think of it? I don't know anything about C.S. Lewis and very little about Christianity in general.

@Polybius It was a very interesting format for certain, as it is as the title suggests it’s a series of letters written between a young demon and his uncle. Asking advice for how to best corrupt and tempt the man he has been assigned to.

@Bigfoot#6897 🤔 sounds interesting. I'll probably pick it up next time I go it was only like four bucks anyway.

Gonna order "First Rate Madness" soon

It connects strong leaders to often having mental illnesses

https://mobile.nytimes.com/2011/08/21/books/review/a-first-rate-madness-by-nassir-ghaemi-book-review.html?mc=contentSEdom&ad-keywords=auddevgate&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_sOeveTy2gIVBp6fCh1NxwgOEAAYASAAEgLTa_D_BwE&dclid=CLj53cLk8toCFchbDAodO68I3w

Big fan of psychology and history

so this should be right up my alley

Mere Christianity is great

Probably the best introduction to Christianity there is

Yeah Mere Christianity is a good book, I read it a couple months ago, I have the same copy you posted. Screwtape Letters is good too, but I still need to finish it I got halfway into it then forgot about it.

can you guys give me the necessary books to read about Christianity for beginners?

Mere Christianity is a good starting point

If you're interested in catholicism this is a site I've been reading through and have found pretty useful

https://www.fisheaters.com/

@Abel

thanks big guy

mere xtiananity is a good entry level

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3tw66BBdDw

tbh it sounds too big brained for him

mark collett

fall of western man

interesting, is mark collett a big brained nibba

seems so so far

@Solipsistic Vinarchy What are the opioid books?

Anyone here read Lovecraft?

Fellas does anyone think about the contradiction in the premise of 1984

What contradiction @Barry White

Like everything in he book is a contradiction. The slogan, the ministries, newspeak, the names for things

I have LotR books, gates of fire, and jordan petersons 12 rules to life.

Any suggestion for books like these, not really political types but more message based for self

I was thinking of getting that Notes from the underground book nick mentioned yesterday

Meditations @scorch

https://youtu.be/_m08enaIBSc CRP talking live about how Nick beating him made him retreat from the Internet

@shinjitsu If Winston Smith was ultimately brainwashed like the rest of the proles and the outer party, it makes no sense that he wouldn't have already been sufficiently conditioned to begin with, like the rest of them. It seems like Orwell's premise, which was that humans are fundamentally and totally programmable, butted up against the need to have a protagonist in the book.

@Barry White I disagree I think the idea was that everyone has some varying degree to how easy it will be to program them, and they choose Winston as a case of someone who is very hard to get control of. They even have a system built in to catch these people who are hopeful for revolution

And he does get programmed at the end when he finally gets killed

@Deleted User one is Dreamland by Sam Quiones

the other is just a basic overview by some doctor

and its more of a pamphlet

but seems like a good overview

https://www.poets.org/poetsorg/poem/proverbs-hell

this is my next secret project

in 3 yrs you will see william blake becoming a popular cultural icon

look for it, it takes time but we will blend the sweet and sour of th eold ways again

Not even the book talk channel is sacred

Currently reading Suicide of a Superpower

next is Dreamland by Sam Quiones (on the opioid epidemic)

then I have Stone's Rules and 33 Strategies of War in my shopping cart for when im ready

Also looking into Art of War

its a classic

ofc

give recommendations

I was looking into this one book called First Rate Madness

it links mental illness to good leadership

and sounds fascinating

it discusses how having a normie squarehead type of person cant think outside the box during a crisis

https://www.nytimes.com/subscription/multiproduct/lp8XKUR.html?mktgrfr=gw_mob&campaignId=

wow

jewyork times

https://www.npr.org/2011/08/20/139681339/madness-and-leadership-hand-in-hand

you have anything on psychology?

ooo ya

I was actually thinking about getting Jerome Corsi's "Killing the Deep State"

its probably wild

about the FBI spying on Trump during the campaign

Yeah Propaganda seemed dry

I was thinking about getting it

Yeah even if it is bullshit

it should be a dopamine rush

Ted Malloch, Ive heard of him

He was an insider with all sorts of Globalist programs right?

is Evola as big brained as he seems?

we out here chillin

Love how snapple advertises their new plastic bottle like its a good thing

Completely changes the taste IMO

glass bottle nationalism

as a cashier I approve

fuck glass

anti plastic action

The profileration of plastic and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

In Suicide of a Superpower Buchanan calls out the West for "abandoning" Ian Smith in Rhodesia and South Africa

dang

Need good books on mythology

And has anyone read Birth of the West?

Ian Smith did nothing wrong

Lady Gregory's Irish mythology is the definitive book on the subject @Deleted User

Tfw your friends won't read Kaczynski because he bombed some people

@Solipsistic Vinarchy Said you liked Buchanan you read the Uneccesssary War

Fellas losing the reading motivation

How do you keep it up when you’re not feeling it

take a break

or get a book that really fascinates you

even better if its a short one

Just got my hands on The American Caesar, about Douglas MacArthur
Wheee

he was a badass

<:chad:402359917819985931>

He or Patton, rather than Eisenhower should've ran for President tbh

On trade and China

Has anyone here read The Vanishing American Dream by Virginia Abernathy

Virgin 1984 vs Chad Brave New World

@Trumpster1899 no is it good

Yes I am currently reading it, it illustrates the problem of mass immigration, population pressure, social cohesion etc.

It's a really detailed book, citing hundreds of research studies

noice

@sbbu Good starting point if you’re serious

Hitler's Monsters: A Supernatural History of the Third Reich https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0300234546/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_1U8jBbW75WZQR

I'm reading a book series at the moment on napoleon it's the best of read on him yet . It's by Michael briers the first book is called soldier of destiny it really moves the histography if napoleon forward in a big way

<:trump:402385775200829440> <:trump:402385775200829440> <:trump:402385775200829440> <:trump:402385775200829440> <:trump:402385775200829440>

@GG The Rat King does focus more on biography or napoleonic wars?

i need some reccs for the wars

@Callaghan iv read a good bit on him before and it's mainly focused on napoleon so it covers more the parts of the wars he's involved with so the seige of toulon , the Italian campaigns in the 2nd and 3d wars of the coalition's and invasion of Egypt after that napoleon's in full control so it in detail covers all the subsequent wars

@Callaghan the book uses a large database of napoleon s letter to bring alot of new context to him, many historians either turn napoleon into a 1d villian or a saint a this new series of books I find does about to scrutinise these and give a clear picture if your looking for more military history maybe try David g chandler he's English so he might be abit biased but he served in the army briefly so he come at it with that type of view

@GG The Rat King where does he stand on the great man theory? tolsoty shits on it all the time

@Callaghan well he doesn't really hold to it but he's isn't a massive critics of it either , I'm a big fan of napoleon but Tolstoy trash him and the great man theory relentlessly but I still enjoyed his work war and peace no-one writes like Tolstoy and his russian view is quite intresting

@Callaghan my view of it is napoleon was a genius but without the wealth of talented administrators and generals that came up with him during the revolution he would have been very limited in what he could do . Take someone like his chief of staff Bierther he was in some ways essential to napoleon and you can sense napoleon's loss of him in the Waterloo campaign where his organisational skills where surley missed

@GG The Rat King Thanks, I'm about halfway through war and peace now so im looking for more books on the war and napoleon. Any others you like?

Waterloo by david g chandler ,the second instalment of that series is spirt of the age which I'm reading right now and that author has many books on different parts of Europe @Callaghan if I think of any others il let u know
