@aWildTomAppeared how do you feel about the best ancient greek philosopher, democritus?

idk, im kina new, dont know much other than like plato and aristotle when it comes to philosophers, Was thinking recently, considering aristotle basically made the basis of the scentific theory, do you think if he had the printing press, the renaissance, and therefore all of recent human technological improvements would have happened 2000 years earlier??

Probably

Probably be worse off tbh

idk

kek

There's a lot of Important philosophical development that happened between Aristotle and the printing press.

the more I read into greek philosophy and their general way of life/spirit, the more I wish they survived, but then again, the english values are basically as good as it gets, so idk if it would be better

It never really went away, it just evolved

devolved you mean

Evolved

how? they were just taken over by the romans

Not really

They were still hellenic

The Romans respected the Greek culture, as long as it remained subservient

I dont see how the greek can be greek while being subservient, they always seem to refuse to bend the knee or give up like that,

like the melians

Well Idk what to tell you. Go read a book

im on it, still early into history

The Greeks had a lot of respect in Rome.

They just wanted them to pay their taxes and not compete with them

Kind of like the UK and America

I am aware of how the romans read and spread greek philosophy, but like I dont see any progression from the greek times to the medevil

That's because it's mostly hidden from pop culture

You think the Greeks went from a pantheon of gods to Orthodoxy on a whim?

Greek philosophy didn't end; it just evolved into Theology.

Hellenic Judaism was the start of that

idk man doesnt feel like in improvement to me, from the omni-critical approach of aristotle to Abrahamic religons, I wish at least one endo-european culture had the balls not to take on abrahamic religons,

Lol k

u know any good sources to learn about the greeks after they were strong to more modern times? @Fitzydog
