Good Greof

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling Not cultural but for educational and scholarly purposes

@JeshPeep @daatdarling "They never imagined their task to be “cultural.” Pope Benedict reminds us of what is well known, but not always understood in its depth: Monks worked and prayed." Your ex pope proved me right

This is a reminder for those who have forgotten that for most of human history, the Christians were the ones destroying culture, beauty, and history, not the ones defending it. This take is the historic stance of the church.

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling An explanation of one reason why they thought one text had scholarly value 😲😲😲😲

@JeshPeep @daatdarling I did. "Virgil could be read as a prophet of sorts because of the long-held misinterpretation of his Fourth Eclogue, and Seneca was believed to have had a correspondence with St. Paul." It's bullshit revisionism and eisegesis of older texts

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling What is unimpressive to you about it

@JeshPeep @daatdarling I said it was unimpressive... and still is

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling Because Pensees doesnt exist

@JeshPeep @daatdarling Yeah, physicist, not philosopher...

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling That's actually not what I did so you didn't even click the links

@JeshPeep @daatdarling So you couldn't, all you did was link a bunch of repositories of ancient and medieval texts

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling Blaise Pascal is one of the most influential physicists in history and also an important philosopher and that's just one from the list

@JeshPeep @daatdarling Nah, its because they're truly irrelevant. Hence why christians can only brag about Aquinas and Augustine. Both cheap sanitized copies of the classics, which proves the OT right, christianity just leeches from older superior traditions.

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling I'm not doing the leg work for you. You denied a claim with no supporting evidence and you refuse to explain what the thing you're refuting is so you really are just embarrassing yourself

@JeshPeep @daatdarling x.com/AmericaeHispan…

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling sites.dartmouth.edu/ancientbooks/2… bede.org.uk/literature.htm jameshannam.com/literature.htm acton.org/publications/t… One minute Google search I'm not going into any digital libraries on my phone

@JeshPeep @daatdarling So you can't. Got it

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling I enjoy how you abandoned this point because of how clearly indefensible it is

@JeshPeep @daatdarling Not really, not very relevant, if not at all.

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling You still have yet to explain it

@JeshPeep @daatdarling I mean it is, to claim him as "the greatest philsoopher ever" for copying and having like one innovation... yeah, it is unimpressive

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling As much as I would love to mill through my textbooks and scholarly articles I'm not gonna do that

@JeshPeep @daatdarling AI? really?

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling

@JeshPeep @daatdarling "every contemporary historian disagrees" hahah, sure...

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling No because you're so sure and unimpressed saying "oh that's it" you clearly know so go ahead the floor is yours

@JeshPeep @daatdarling x.com/AmericaeHispan…

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling Alright explain designated matter. Clearly you're already familiar and completely unimpressed

@JeshPeep @daatdarling Really? is that all?

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling "Yeah this guy on Twitter said that this was the reason even though every contemporary historian disagrees. He didn't provide any evidence but he seemed pretty sure"

@JeshPeep @daatdarling Yes, manipulating local traditions to brainwash people into jewish superstition is a malicious and predatory purpose

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling I know exactly what he says. That he doesn't know. He goes back and forth and doesnt have a solid answer. Aquinas develops the idea of designated matter which is something that Aristotle doesn't bring up once. Again you're just embarrassing yourself. You clearly dont know

@JeshPeep @daatdarling x.com/JeshPeep/statu…

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling Yeah irish monks copied pagan folklore for overtly malicious and predatory purposes and not for educational purposes. This guy on Twitter who disagrees with all contemporary historians told me so

@JeshPeep @daatdarling Because they were useful and interpolated by christians

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling You're embarrassing yourself man. Google is free

@JeshPeep @daatdarling So progressive all he did was copying from the classics lmao

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling So what does aristotle say about whether or not matter enters into essence

@JeshPeep @daatdarling Aristotle, duh...

@AmericaeHispano @daatdarling No, hence why we have may pagan texts but there are overt specific examples of texts that we don't

@JeshPeep @daatdarling Oh so christians did widely destroy pagan texts, huh?
