So until the advent of Christianity no one criticized slavery, let alone undermine it??? Why were pagans so evil?

I don't think there's anything in the bible which prohibits classical slavery, the sort which was temporary and which often saw slaves freed/enter from/into slavery depending on economic and political circumstance and where they were treated like people with rights and you couldn't just murder them. That's just ancient economics.Slavery mostly collapsed because the economy did, and there wasn't a need to pay the very high expense to ship people around constantly to work on new projects or to pay the high cost of acquiring them in the first place through raids. Then they just became tied to the land, and their servitude was permanent. Arguably much worse.
>>16567425the old covenant was somewhat compatible with slavery(Moses). the new covenant is not(Jesus).even the Mosaic law was trying to make slavery more humane.real Abrahamic religion is something that aims to build a better world. baby steps.that's where western atheists got their core values from.Christianity is about treating others the way you would like to be treated because that's what will happen to you on judgement.

What causes some autists on this website to develop lifelong sexual/romantic obsessions with individual cartoon characters that are inherently sexless and intended for children's entertainment?>autismYes I know. But I'm not trolling and I'm being very serious. Is it just random that someone like chrischan happens to latch on to sonic, could it have been anything? Or some other autist latches on to /mlp/? I have seen some claim it has to do with sensory affinity for bright colors and predictability/consistency, but this doesn't really explain the monomania with one individual character.
>>16567280This still doesn't explain why they attach to on character, like the spergs on /v/ who've been generating 300 images of the same Isabelle or gender bent sonic for almost a year now, or chrischan and his like.
>>16567266Characters like Sonic are very 'readable' emotionally. Very expressive with one-note personalities.
>>16567428they're also low IQ on top of being autisticand they probably mindbreak themselves out of habit of spamming those imagesIt wouldn't be as bad if thousands of online faggots were receptive to their bullshitI'm only talking about high IQ completely lonely people not doing it out of attention seeking eceleb behaviour
>>16567454I agree with you general ideas about them, but i still think there is some unique thing going on with how they latch on to one particular form from childhood, how that happens and why. The type is understood (some cartoon), but not why they pick just the one, and how that choice is made.
>>16567266>>16567279>what causes thisPsychological science doesn't offer an answer, though if you want to classify it it would be a paraphilia or paraphilic disorder, depending on the degree of impairment it causes (e.g. someone spends 5 minutes a day jerking off to the character vs. someone doesn't go to work because they jerk off no less than 6 hours a day to the character)>it's obviously autismNone of the criteria for the diagnosis of autism look anything like "develop a romantic or sexual interest for anyone or anything", quite the opposite in fact, autistic people are generally not interested in the world outside of themselves, and especially in other people, be they real or imagined.>I'm being very seriousI recommend reading a book on the topic then, because you clearly don't know what you're talking about.
Is it ever acceptable to hit your child? What are some good reasons? Is it allowed for something small like getting a B in an exam, or should it be reserved for severe cases like commiting dangerous or criminal activity? Should it be a last resort, or could it be done at the first sign mistake? At what age could a parent hit a child, 4 or after puberty? How hard could a parent hit a child? Is a single slap in the face the max, or can a parent use an object like a belt or a slipper and hit them repeatedly? Or is it all just a form of abuse? Is there any proof that physical punishment is helpful or harmful to children? Are children allowed to hit their parents as well whatsoever? Why is it acceptable to hit children, who are mostly at their weakest physical state throughout their lives, but not acceptable to hit other adults like spouses? Are white parents allowed to hit their children, or is it something reserved for POCs?
No, it's not ok to hit children. It builds anger issues and normalizes using violence to solve problems.Also, if you touch a kid's ass, you're a pedophile. End of.
>>16567243>End of.that is what one's ass is typically seen as, yes
>>16567245
>>16565794you're being very emotional
>>16560295Pain correction should only be used for the practical reason of preventing a very bad outcome. Like if your kid sucks their thumb habitually, a sharp pain applied will instinctually knock them out of the habit and theyll be thankful that they dont have buck teeth when older.Pain as punishment creates fearful people

What you worship as "Jesus" is actually Cesare Borgia, son of Pope Alexander VI a.k.a. Rodrigo Borgio, who was a scandalous adulterer.

Going by your logic the Soviets won even harder in Afghanistan because they killed far more people than NATO did in half the time.
>>16561398It wasnt a surprise and the Japanese formally declared war six hours prior.

>>16567434>left behind an arsenal of Western weapons stockpiles worth billions of dollars NTA but similar shit happened when the shah was chased out of Tehran, it more or less became billion dollar junk when the technicians trained to maintain them fucked off to the west and the supply of spare parts and other equipment to ensure a minimum of functionality dried up. Hell, the same shit even happened in South Vietnam when the spare parts that were *supposed* to maintain the ARVN's armored forces ended up shipped to Israel during the 1973 war
Reminder that Japs pulled sneak attack on Russians in the Russo-Japanese war and Germans in WW1 as well. Around Japs never relax
>>16567384>The Ottomans recorded 615k in 1914 (there was mass migration into Palestine from the Hejaz and Egypt during the late 19th and early 20th centuriesHow about a source
>>16567187Unless you're going with ultimate cope and suggesting "Syria Palestina" is synonymous with Palestine, it quite literally doesn't. Under the Ottomans it was divided between the Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem, and the Sanjaks of Nablus and Acre which were both part of Beirut Vilayet. There isn't even a single instance of someone calling themselves a "Palestinian" until Khalil Beidas did in 1898, and it was used interchangeably as a general term for Arabic-speaking Christians that also included Lebanese.
>>16567369Palestinians have screeched nonstop about "muh nakba" for 75 years and Arabs treat Palestine as the most important issue in human history when a shocking... 75-80 thousand Palestinians have been killed by Israelis in the last 76 years. Prior to mid-december 2023, fewer Palestinians had been killed post-Nakba than Jews killed in the single-day massacre at Babyn Yar, let alone Romani, Polish and Ukrainian victims of the massacre.
>>16567202Mizrahi is a grouping of all Jews from the MENA region, Sephardic specifically denotes those descended from Iberian Jews.

Why was it normal for people to arrange marriages for young adults with children in the past? Didn’t they have any morals?
>>16566485Why is it immoral? Generally they didn't move in until they were 14 or 16.
>>16566485Why shouldn't they?>but children can't consentThen the question you should be asking is why was it normal to give females in marriage without their consent, since this was often done for fully grown women as well.
>>16566485No. That happened with nobility, not with normal people and neither did they exactly consumate anything until far later. Most people married in their early 20's and a majority of these marriages were not arranged. In Southern Europe they married slightly earlier on average but they still weren't children.
>>16566557Yup. It's like attractiveness. It just depends. Pale women are seen as ugly but in the 1800s it was the epitome of beauty.
This is going to blow you guys away but for 99 percent of the time. Marriage was not done out of love. It was a bussiness deal. Or some way to unite families. People did not mostly marry people they "loved". Crazy right.
So a lot of them must have ended up back in China and Japan right? What do you think happened to those ones?
>>16567478They were the native Taiwanese before being genocided by China

Why do Irish larp as "celts" when there is no such thing as "celts"?
>>16567224>they are not mutually intelligibleNo one said they are mutually intelligible. They have remarkable similarities in syntax and lexicon is all.
>>16567235there is no definition of "celt" its not a real thing. Its an imagined group that never existed in antiquity.
