The Roman Empire didn't have conscription and sub-Sahara was not part of the Empire.

2020-02-18 11:27:59 UTC  

Ah, I see.

2020-02-18 11:28:09 UTC  

also

2020-02-18 11:28:11 UTC  

Well, according to your friend, China is burning.

2020-02-18 11:28:14 UTC  

lmao

2020-02-18 11:28:15 UTC  

Lol.

2020-02-18 11:28:17 UTC  

Augustus removed conscription with the exception of emergencies.

CHINA NUMBA WAN

2020-02-18 11:28:25 UTC  

wdym

2020-02-18 11:28:35 UTC  

Replaced it with a voluntary Legionary term of 20 years active 5 reserve.

2020-02-18 11:28:55 UTC  

oh

2020-02-18 11:29:02 UTC  

the term means china is burning?

2020-02-18 11:29:23 UTC  

The Republic's conscription contract lasted 6 years and was already transitioning to voluntary by the Third Punic War.

2020-02-18 11:30:18 UTC  

@ETBrooD that depends on what moral system you adhere to.

2020-02-18 11:31:09 UTC  

What do you mean?

2020-02-18 11:31:12 UTC  

Well, it can mean a few things, but primarily that, yeah. I suppose you could interpret it as there being unrest in China, simply put, @Samer. There's really no context, so translated on its own, it means,
華: China
燃: Burn, or
China is burning.

2020-02-18 11:31:27 UTC  

What is moral and immoral varies by culture.

2020-02-18 11:31:37 UTC  

A religion usually reflects this.

2020-02-18 11:31:37 UTC  

thing is @Jeremy

2020-02-18 11:31:51 UTC  

Adherence to the religion by extension promotes their morality.

2020-02-18 11:31:58 UTC  

Which makes sense, considering you can infer from the current circumstances in China.

2020-02-18 11:32:01 UTC  

Culture alone doesn't determine morality, there are many factors playing into it.

2020-02-18 11:32:12 UTC  

Interesting, @Samer.

2020-02-18 11:32:19 UTC  

Such as?

2020-02-18 11:32:20 UTC  

another answer that i got @Jeremy

```I'd probably think the same because:

first kanji is flower but different kanji, 花 → 華
second is "to burn", and the word fireworks has fire in it, 火 → 燃

and the word fireworks is 花火```

2020-02-18 11:32:27 UTC  

What's the name of the song, @Samer?

2020-02-18 11:32:33 UTC  

Personal experience for example.

2020-02-18 11:32:54 UTC  

I'm focusing on social morality over personal.

2020-02-18 11:33:05 UTC  

There's no "social morality"

2020-02-18 11:33:12 UTC  

I am focusing on pee pee poo poo

2020-02-18 11:33:28 UTC  

What do you think mores and taboos are?

2020-02-18 11:33:38 UTC  

Do you watch cosmicskeptic jezza

2020-02-18 11:33:46 UTC  

They certainly aren't morality

2020-02-18 11:34:09 UTC  
2020-02-18 11:34:18 UTC  

Then we seem to be operating on very different ideas of what morality is.

2020-02-18 11:34:18 UTC  

it's the first refrain

2020-02-18 11:34:34 UTC  

Because they are *definitely* part of morality.

2020-02-18 11:34:39 UTC  

Nah they're not

2020-02-18 11:34:42 UTC  

He's doing theology and philosophy at Oxford

2020-02-18 11:34:51 UTC  

They're far more fundamental than personal morals.

2020-02-18 11:34:58 UTC  

eh
