also you might consider the context before talking shit

Context is for goyim plebs

i don't know what that means

@Grodd did psychology exist in ancient greece?

Yes

well scientologists say it's older than the human race. i'm under the impression that it's only few hundred years old science

but even if i'm wrong, that's a long way from fucking lying

The only real advances we've made as a species in the past few thousand years are industrial and clinical

i'd argue science isn't a genetic advance

<:thronk:441701565607444482>

I didn't say it was

well you mentioned species

Yeah, the human race. As a whole, over time as being homo sapiens

Our advances

western advances are different from african advances, we share the same species but there's no way there's some guy working in a tin hut in mozambique is a clinical psychologist rather than a witch doctor

That.... has nothing to do with what I just said.

Jesus, never mind

well, i disagree. i don't mean it as a hostile argument, i only mean that it's not specific to the species rather than geography

Let me rephrase everything I've just said so far

don't worry about it

i get what you mean

and i agree

just not about it being a human thing rather than a western thing

We, as humans, have not made any large advances in human psychology in the past 2 thousand years.

We know just as much now, as before

We've just rephrased it

k, well, then you didn't understand me.

As is usual whenever someone says they understand the other person

He meant you spoke from ignorance. Yeah, it was too harsh on his part to state you were being deceitful

i think he didn't understand what i was saying

I think he did, and he's correct

earliest record of a study of psychology was done in 1830

which is reasonably within the 100-200 year estimation that i did

Yeah, before that we just called it 'philosophy' and 'theology'

exactly

Not like they came up with anything new though

yeah but we were talking specifically psychology and the medications involved

out of context the thing i said would be incorrect, but when we are talking modern psychology it's not relevant what happened in ancient greece

in my opinion

We were talking about atheism, tbf

i wasn't
