ironic that a lot of the people in charge are orthodox in israel now doh
@Amadeus I thought the Ultra orthodoxy had the most privileges in Israel, so that video wasn't kinda what I expected ๐ค
that's why i said what i said
There are many kinds of Ultra-Orthodox people
I think they were exempt from the draft too
@Amadeus this is vice doc a propaganda

San Fran literally days away from bubonic plague outbreak
Like the curse God placed on Egypt
California has to let all the right wingers out. Let my people go.
Then they will pursue them and the alt right will annihilate them and dump the Gulf of California on them
Finally they will wander in the desert and then settle in Mexico, kill all of the inhabitants, and form their own nation
Also National socialist germany taxed you to death and also killed people with disabilities <:smugpepe:445634631950139403>
these ramadan worshippers are going too far man
I know Prager U but facts
More like Prager Jew
Boomer I know haha
literally why atheism is the worst notion man ever conceived. it provides for no moral code, thus it treats man as a means to an end, and by extension dehumanizes them so a few disappearing isn't a big deal to them.
why is communism really appealing to people? because if there is no absolute moral standard then it leaves people free to act how they please, regardless of how morally abhorrent it might be. I'm not just talking about the bigger things, I'm talking about stealing not being a big deal, or greed not having an impact on your active conscience, or rather not being burdened by the though that what one is doing is wrong. The irony is that in this totalitarian system (as communism eventually regresses to), the little sins you make end up costing you your livelihood or worse, your life. exactly what happens if you live rejecting god.
Communists want free shit basically
Stealing it from someone means free to them
Jealous because someone else has more instead of being content with their lives
Obama actually said it, "the rich means anyone who has more than someone else"
it's more than that ragnarok, it boils down to them wanting being free from consequences, either of lifestyle choices, or freedom from that nagging feeling in the back of everyone's head that if you do something wrong your conscience will tell you.
it's actually ironic that atheism in this sense, in promising free will, takes it away from you
That's why people choose atheism, but not necessarily communism
there are no religious communists
Atheism is freedom from consequences. You die and you're dead, no God to punish you
if you find one, i'll be surprised
There are atheists who are not communist
That's the group I was referring to
In the early days of communism in China the Christians tended to side more with the communists than the nationalists. Of course neither were capitalist, but the KMT tended to be run more by rich bureaucrats
Because in the beginning they didn't present themselves as an anti-Christian movement like the Russians did
which is another way of saying they didn't actually know better
They didn't, they were just desperate
A lot of them weren't truly commies, they were just truly hungry
But they are a special and abnormal case
perhaps. I doubt there were many, if any genuine christians in the communist leadership in china though
In leadership definitely not
as we know, Christians aren't unique in putting their chips in the right place all the time. We do seem more common though, when it comes to promptly admitting our faults and asking for forgiveness. I'm just ranting about atheism this early because I'm reading some of Lee Strobel's works.
Lot of stuff I didn't know before reading them, like far more than I thought I knew
the biggest bit was that Science cannot provide a single proof for the origin of life. Microevolution, yes, but not the idea that we all have a common ancestor.
Who is he?
Lee Strobel is an american author and former atheist who wrote a book examining the proof for Christ as a lawyer would
"The case for Christ"
he examined almost every facet you could from medical scholars to archeologists to several people with doctorates in New and Old Testament study to come to the conclusion that Jesus is the Unique Son of God.
My theory of evolution is that the genetic code for variations was already present in each species created.
And the offspring varied like a random roll of dice, with some inheriting some genes, others getting other genes
Not quite microevolution. Not an actual change.
Maybe some types survived in some places because of natural selection (others died out), or because animals inhering certain features chose to migrate to favorable places.
Or maybe they migrated somewhere and God chose in some way for their offspring to manifest certain traits that had been dormant genes before
Supernatural selection
there isn't enough time for what you're suggesting. Think of this. Life more or less came into being only 540-60 million years ago, and almost all of the animal Phyla came fully formed, meaning some with the traits they would hold for millions of years. this in itself is another miracle, but the bigger miracle is that life arose in the first place. no biologist can solve the most fundamental problem of evolution, that being the ultimate origin of life, because they are incapable of solving the assembly problem.
I don't believe in the old earth model
the idea that the earth is billions of years old?
Yeah
Bible has a pretty clear timeline. Yesterday/last night we discussed this in depth in the religion channel
then why would god create radioactive decay rates and then make them unique to each element?
I don't see you around here often, or ever I think, but you should definitely join in on some of our discussions
I would love to.
Radioactive decay can be affected by a lot of things
You gotta have a baseline to determine when it started to decay
I believe the Flood could have been a major event to affect this
true enough, but then how would one explain away the Radioactive cosmic background? the flood wouldn't be a good explanation for that
Of course I could be wrong about young earth but, when God said days, he said days. The same word used elsewhere in the OT, especially with "evening and morning" always meant one day, 24 hours.
you can't read the bible literally in this sense, just like you can't read it literally in the sense of Daniel 9:24-26
There's no reason to think that part was anything but literal. Else evening and morning, and the creation of celestial bodies to help us determine time of day, seems like pointless writing on behalf of Moses
Daniel 9:24-26 refers to sevens which translated from the original hebrew meant weeks, and yet the prophecy concerning in this chapter say at what time in history the Messiah would appear, and when one does the calculation properly, it matches up within a year of christ's birth and death
the book of daniel is set approximately 490 years before christ's death
which is exactly what is predicted in the book through the prophesy of daniel.
But he is, of course, a prophet
The creation isn't about prophecy, it's about history. It was written after the events it refers to, while Daniel is written before the events it refers to
and we also need to understand that the writers of the old testament were not secretaries of the holy spirit. Genesis got the order of creation exactly right, but the timeframe of how fast or slow is off.
And of course the context in which that Hebrew word "yom" is used, I'm inclined to take it literally when it says evening and morning
Remember days were measured from sunset to sunset
well, let me put it another way. we have never uncovered a fossil of any kind of human that appears in the same strata of rock as say, a dinosaur, yet genesis would tell me that at one point mankind and dinosaurs walked the earth at the same time. also, based on the dimensions specified in Genesis concerning the Ark, and that god commands that a pair of each and every living creature on earth be put inside, it is literally impossible to fit that many creatures in the same confined space for almost 8 months without warping spacetime inside the ark to make the interior far larger than it actually is.
Then maybe a lot of them were dead?
Maybe there was not as much genetic diversity and so instead of a thousand kinds of dogs/wolves, there was just two or three
by that logic then there would be far less diversity than we see on the planet
case and point the different types of finches on the galapagos.
We think of a world covered in dinosaurs but in reality we haven't actually found that many fossils
Job 40:15-19
We've got ancient drawings of them
going back to one of my older points, the flood would have done nothing to distort our detection of the radiological cosmic background, and most physicist will tell you that that is an adequate means of measuring the age of the universe
Mankind has a lot of creativity but I don't see them inventing a monster in their heads that turns out to be real 5000 years later but predating the artist by 500 million years
65-150 million years to be precise. if it were only 5000 years old, and remember that Job is after genesis, then they would be still around.
maybe not where Job was, but they would have been referenced by many more cultures than just the Hebrew, especially since Job takes place after the events of Solomon (about 870-830BC)
Most Biblical scholars put Job as the oldest book
Job cannot be older than Genesis, otherwise job would be first in the bible, and from what I know Job was first written between the 7th and 4th century BC
The physical writing, not the event obviously
Job 22:16 references the flood. So we know it's after Noah
The sacrifice in Job 1:5 is of the patriarchal "rite" which is pre-Mosaic
Same for the daughters' inheritances in Job 42:15
And the measurement of his wealth in flocks instead of money, Job 42:12
keep in mind that in oral cultures the core details of a story are preserved very well, but the secondary details tend to fluctuate.
And for him to live 200 or so years, this happened for some time after the flood but not by the time of Moses
So I'd put him pre-Abraham
But not by much
it's reasonable to assume that the secondary details of the story changed over the possible millenniums. but here we ask, is it unreasonable to say that is Job were a big part of the story of the bible, surely he would have been mentioned in the details of Genesis?
or even exodus?
There's a lot of stuff left out, or even stuff included that may seem strange
Most people don't notice it
I'm Catholic so this may seem like a biased perspective but there's a ton of references to deuterocanonical books (rejected by Protestants). But to be fair there are actually Biblical references to books rejected by all Christians, and even books entirely lost forever.
the problem I've had with Genesis is that in oral cultures legendary details tend to seep in over the generations (usually after 120-130 years), so when the bible says "days" in genesis, I've never taken it to mean literal days. the new testament I've taken much more literally since the people who were in the events were still alive as the books were written down, in some cases as little as five years after the death of christ
And other books that we may not know what it refers to; could be books we still have, some we don't
Well I have to rely a bit on the supernatural for this; God's word isn't gonna be lost.
you don't have to for god's word. the bible states it clearly that everything that can decay into nothing will before even the slightest word of god is gone
By supernatural I mean, God, above the natural and observable
for me, it isn't just the bible that is the word of god but the laws of the universe he wrote to permit the very existance of life
the code in my DNA is the word of god, recordable but so far uncrackable
Joshua 10:13 refers to the Book of the Just Man. Which is lost.
the book of chronicles refers to a book which recorded all the deeds of the kings of Israel
that one is gone too
Numbers 21:14-15 refers to the Book of the Wars of the Lord
the only way these can be reconciled is if they aren't physical books
The Just Man is sometimes called Jasher
as in they are books recorded by god but not for man
Well I believe in them being physical books, that are lost, but aren't necessarily the word of God
then that is why they are lost to time
But were obviously of some cultural importance
And it is possible they aren't lost, we just haven't rediscovered them
many books head down the river of time, but not all of them survive the rapids of history. Very few from that time survive into the present day unless they've held part of or the absolute truth
The Art of War is a good non-biblical example I can give
Gospel of Judas (noncanonical of course) was thought lost until 2006
maybe the Vatican has all the missing books.
wouldn't be surprised at all if they did
The archives are a lot less exciting than people think
Probably just keeping up an illusion for tourism but, it is possible to get in there with scholarly credentials
I'm going to head off for sleep.
Goodnight bro
Honk honk
This guy needs to be thrown in a tub full of pig lard

^literally me when i was a liberal and hearing a conservative podcast and agreeing with most of the points after being stuck in an echo chamber known as the left wing
Tbh it's hard to be a liberal
you need to be ignorant as fuck when you have access to net
Feels over facts
The hypocrisy of it gets to you eventually
Their reality is just broken
Wait... MY MONEY is being used for what?
I dont like that.
I just thought it was a good idea
But no if I'm paying for it I dont like that
And that's how everyone basically becomes conservative
Well, to become a conservative you also can do it by reading history
And not the "Revised" bullshit they try to push over now
That's why more women are leftist
Helicopters are self aware now

Mmm Italy will get help
Italy has the scions of Mussolini.
his own flesh and blood.
just as long as they don't try to repeat the restoration of Rome, they'll do fine.
Well last time, we almost throwed all the italian army into the sea
fucking hitler ruined everything though ๐ฆ
at the time, I see a lot of paralels of my own country with Italy.
Both were primarily agrarian countries for example
and as default, such countries are incapable of waging proper war.
We are agrarian too
the socialists though have devalued our trades sadly though, we are capable to make everything but they import everything and add massive taxes to our agricultural
and another flaw with Mussolinis neo-Rome idea was the emergence of the nation state idea, people telling imperialists to fuck off and developing countries based on a single ethnos.
The thing with Mussolini is, that he didn't won the people over but forced himself on power
half his lime was in socialistic movements
If hitler wouldn't fuck us over with the bulgarians we would have hanged that bastard in Rome
Juzef Pilsudski had an idea to remake the Litvo-Polak commonwealth into a federal state.
Benito should've focused on strenghtening Italy as a whole, flipping off the rest, and giving the roman reconquest a permanent shelving.
And allow Mori to do his fucking thing in exterminating mafia.
Well, we wanted to stay neutral up to the point Mussolini send an ultimatum and destroyed one of our ships in a holiday
We don't have problem with italians but they have backstabbed us a lot in the past, and if the war was only between us rome would have burned that time
from the little bits I know, Italy's failed attempt at subjugating Greece was basically it's afghanistan.
We conquered all the albania when the war fired up
almost throwed all the italian army in the sea
we don't even had a mechanized army yet
It was pretty much jackasses with rifles who knew their land like their hands. And also, italian generals insisted on using obsolete tactics.
that's the TL;DR version
and the thing is about such warfare, without keen cooperation it is impossible for the invader to win.
Greek army wasn't jackasses though
I meant that in a good way.
Their orders were clear and sound, Don't leave the line not even for an inch. Everyone fought like their last days because they knew what would happen if the enemy reached Greece
Kinda like finns in that regard.
although those dudes are a whole other league of brave.
Battle of hill 731 was what plummeted the morale of italians
They were bombared in that hill by italians for 2 whole weeks by artillery/planes and non left the line
And they were right not to leave the line. When we were subjucated Germany executed whole villages and they still haven't paid for their crimes
fuck the krauts
So the fate of greeks would've been same as us I under Generalplan Ost I assume? by that I mean extermination
Yes,
Raping/pillaging/executions
And because they knew it they wouldn't leave the front
Even when Athens fall, the few military left in metaxas line (it was in greco-bulgarian) borders they still kept fighting until they run out of ammunition
when The germans captured them they also got executed
After that, our military didn't stopped there though when Greece fell they joined the fight in Egypt and helped the british
our troops either were conscripted by the shitstains or red shitstains, or went into the woods as partisans.
A lot of people got into the red army. Forced even.
Even Greeks that were living in georgia got dragged on
few managed to flee west, and join the brits
But the hate I do have for the germans can't be rivaled from anything. I do enjoy their slow extermination even if I know that will be against us in the tide of war that is looming
one of our pilots who fought in the brit forces
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romualdas_Marcinkus
Respect for him
F
My half a year stint as a gestarbeiter at the krauts was enough.
For me, what they get now is divine punishment
Even what the reds did to them
reds were not brutal enough.
Well they raped half germany
you need to subjugate the kraut often.
That nation died with Bismarck.
the dude, not the ship.
I had a historian teacher that said that germany needs to be bombed every 40 years
to keep them in line
good idea.
Or we could let the france take them and remind them the battle of verdun
but they need to uncuck themselves first
that's a lot of uncucking to do.
since a lot of great frenchmen died in the fields listed above.
Australia has a conservative victory, Indian exit polls show right wing victory.
Think Trump will win 2020?
Depends on how many dead and illegals will vote
I'm just rooting for the cuckmass here to vote for the bank shill as president
we already suffered through a decade of an old single lesbian KGB whore.
Wym dead
1 week for the elections here
they will probably vote for another dynasty that ruled us and is the lapdogs of merkel
or worse, there will be a coalition with them and syriza
and we do have the natsocs that get a piece of votes too because yeah thats how Greece will clean up
Oh
Four years ago
yeah. this is an old article
