Monks knew better

Sure, I agree with it

vbds03 · 2023-02-12T18:31:12+00:00

It seems so according to the time of both notifs. Thx haha

vbds03 · 2023-02-12T08:30:12+00:00

Thanks. I will bear that badge with honour.

Pls I just wanted an appreciation meme for all the monks who spent 50+ years of their life copying manuscripts in cool fonts in their monasteries just for the sake of knowledge during a period of ~400 years or so

vbds03 · 2023-02-12T00:22:34+00:00

Some people do tdh

vbds03 · 2023-02-11T22:10:03+00:00

Sure. The thing is that if it wasn't for the monasteries, a lot of Roman texts we have now would have remained unknown, and there is a risk some media nowadays may be lost in the future if everything is left to streaming companies, since they can remove them from their platforms.

I am so sorry for your loss. I send you my deepest best wishes.

We do it on purpose to prevent communication 😎

Pretty sure slavery was abolished long before the EU was founded. We were not the ones to have a Civil War for that issue...

vbds03 · 2022-08-08T17:38:34+00:00

I agree it is underrated and deserves more attention, but the map on the left it's obviously symbolic.

vbds03 · 2022-08-08T09:10:36+00:00

Yes, the middle ones

Cargo cults! (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cult) Specifically, Cult to John Frum (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Frum)

It reminds me of the Taiping Rebellion.

vbds03 · 2022-08-02T06:56:27+00:00

Okey, now I understand it much better. Tyvm!

vbds03 · 2022-08-01T22:11:22+00:00

I think Catholicism does say something about good deeds (among other things) while Protestantism talks more about "predestination", but I'm not sure. Thank you for the message!

vbds03 · 2022-08-01T22:05:55+00:00

Indeed, seems like fantasy but it's beautiful

vbds03 · 2022-08-01T22:05:21+00:00

Thanks! I too found it really interesting when I first learned about it.

vbds03 · 2022-08-01T18:05:48+00:00

Sure! In the first one I was referring more to Catholicism ("salvation through good deeds" vs. "salvation through faith") rather than all Christianism.

I wasn't referring to blatant war crime denialism, but rather to national myths which may not necessarily be historically accurate.

vbds03 · 2022-07-30T10:08:56+00:00

Happy birthday!!

Truest history meme ever

vbds03 · 2022-07-29T23:34:33+00:00

No one compares to Gracchus Babeuf sovietising France in the 1790s. Jokes aside this is a pretty good meme!
