Are you actually going to nail them thesses yet willy nibbeler?

...

HAPPY REFORMATIONVERSARY

Reminder Lutherans are cucks. Merkel is a Lutheran.

There's just so much to read, lads. History, literature, politics, arts, philosophy. The ancients, Christian writings, the Elizabethans/Jacobeans, Victorians, the entire 20th century.

I have only the most superficial grasp of British history. I don't know a single thing about economics.

How do I do it? How many books should I be reading per week?

...

Lads can anyone tell me what the British Union of fascists economic policy actually was? Were they soft socialists?

Per week? Just read 1, perhaps 2 per month, but keep going over and re-reading until you fully comprehend and remember the important bits. Better to absorb 12-24 books per year than to not remember and understand 52.

...

One MAX because you want to take the information in. If it's a long book aim for 2 a month.

Tony Blair is a Catholic.

What test is this?

I tried but I got caught half-way through the first church and had to leg it.

Not raised. Converted as adult.

READ SLOWLY AND DIGEST EVERY WORD.

That's the best advice I can give you. Quality over quantity.

Makes literally zero difference.

Makes huge difference.

gotoquiz.com/politics/political-spectrum-quiz.html

Let's you compare your results to other demographics too (e.g. British Tories or US. Republicans)

That's like saying the person who sang Thriller was white. He joined the Catholic church in 2007.

That's a complete false equivalence.

>Economics

Basic Economics by Thomas Sowell. To understand the math behind the simple way he puts it take a micro and marco eco class at university.

It was in jest, but the point is he only converted to Catholicism after doing what he was famous for.

Yeah joins AFTER he does all his cuck shit yet his Catholicism is responsible? Lol.

He must have had alot of guilt.

fuck Catholics

But the fact is he still became a Roman Catholic, and is still a Roman Catholic to this day.

10 years after he was elected.

His election is of no relevance. The original poster claimed that Lutherans are cucked because Merkel is one in name. By that very same logic, Catholics are cucks because Tony Blair is a devote Roman Catholic.

For economics read Marx's Das Kapital, Keynes' General Theory and Rothbard's Man, Economy and State, then read more into the school that seems right to you.

I never realised how the hat and clothes are painted so badly in that painting

>Firstly, as already stated, her "swearing it" isn't exactly evidence or valid. Of course she is going to swear it is unconsummated.

Catherine's testimony was taken on good faith.

But as already stated, an unconsummated marriage is still considered a marriage, but a marriage ratum sed non consummatum. Therefore by remarrying, it was still Biblically incorrect, and the Pope erred by allowing it to take place.

This goes to the heart of Papal authority, and why Henry required a dispensation to marry Catherine in the first place. He then went on to apply for an annulment from Catherine on the grounds that the Pope had been in error in granting the dispensation in the first place. A safer bet would have been to apply on the grounds of duress, in that his father was keen to benefit politically from his marriage to Catherine.

Henry and Catherine were not childless: she gave birth to Mary.

Merkel was raised Lutheran in a Lutheran family. Blair converted much older after his political career had faded. Huge difference you're being deliberately obtuse to. He was not a Catholic when he was pursuing his policies.

Not sure why I got more neo-conservative than non interventionist

>Catherine's testimony was taken on good faith.
By the Catholic Church, sure, because it was in their interests to take it as such. There was much debate at the time over whether it was in fact consummated or not, with no evidence to objectively prove either side. But at the time it was announced that the marriage had been consummated.

"The couple were put to bed together on their wedding night. At the time, the courts of England and Spain assumed that they had sexual relations. The recording herald: “And thus these worthy persons concluded and consummated the effect and complement of the sacrament of marriage.” It was decided that when Arthur resumed his residency in Ludlow Castle, in Wales, Catherine would accompany him and they would live as a married couple."

The dispensation was clearly not legitimate, yet again proving that the Pope erred.

You want to be reading AT LEAST one book per day. I suggest this to get you started.

>claims Merkel is only a Lutheran by name
>ignores when people are only Catholics by name
>tfw he's realising his religion is a scam and there's nothing he can do about it

This is literally irrelevant to the point though. The original poster claimed that all Lutherans are cuckolds because Merkel herself is a Lutheran. Using this ridiculous logic, all Catholics are cuckolds because Blair is a Catholic. Even if you ignore Blair, Macron is a Catholic, Sarkozy is a Catholic, Hollande was a Catholic. The point is that by the original posters logic, all Catholics are cucked because there are leftist and liberal Catholics. It's pointing out the ridiculously of the original post.

>all Lutherans are cuckolds
But they pretty much are, granted it's not for the reasons that poster listed.

Communist.

Just saw a Yank claim that monarchism is left-wing.

The absolute state of the American """right""".

...

Get the fuck out.

How did they work that out then?

What a fucking waste of time lol

>because Blair is a Catholic

since 2007. You're trying to argue logic whilst dismissing it.

>Macron is a Catholic, Sarkozy is a Catholic, Hollande was a Catholic

And where did they send out an open invitation to Africa and the Middle East to come to Europe? No, that was just Merkel. Lutherans in Sweden are cucks too.

...

Nope.

Are you white?

"muh collectivism + authoritarianism = left-wing"

It's just nuts I tell ya

>Reading
>Waste of time
Typical reactionary tbqh.

>open invitation to Africa and the Middle East to come to Europe?
neither did merkel

Whoops dropped the name badge hehe

The quintessential boomer image.

It's irrelevant to the point you fucking dense cunt. Sarkozy openly called for interbreeding between French and non-whites also.

...

No, I think he means reading those shite books in particular.

Here’s your fucking reading list

Important and worthwhile daily reminder.

Do not respond to Tripcunts.
Hide their posts and filter their tripcode.
Hide post stubs

I remember Brit/pol/ as it used to be... a place of discussion. I conversed within its threads and meditated among its posters. I was happy then, at peace.
I remember too the day the Tripcunts came. The day marked by cries of autism and a torrent of self-righteousness. The terrified Anons huddled in darkened corners. I led many to safety, but many more paid the ultimate price.
That day my beloved Brit/pol/ became the centre of cancer on Sup Forums.
There, the tripcunts practised their twisted narcissism that corrupted the threads and nearly destroyed us all.

Even after the Tripcunts reckless narcissism tore Brit/pol/ apart. My people were unable to find a lasting sanctuary. I remember the armies of Tripcunt posters that swept down on us like a plague.

I prefer to remember the Brit/pol/ general as it used to be. Not the abomination it has become. My soul bears the burden of my misjudgement. But I have been patient, I have been waiting and when the time is right the tripcunt will be banished forever.

Daily reminder that right-wing socialism is a thing and dismissing socialism in its entirety derives from Yank-tier autistic individualism

She literally did. Then constantly claimed it was the duty of Europe to take them.

>Leninism
>Shite
Marxism-Leninism is the easiest way to liberate the workers and build socialism.

It's funny that in all of the pics you have none of my tripcodes are ever included.

You are using Leviticus 20:21 as an argument against Henry marrying Catherine of Aragon, and therefore the Pope being in error:

>"'If a man marries his brother's wife, it is an act of impurity; he has dishonored his brother. They will be childless.

Yet Deuteronomy 25:5 (ASV), states the following:

>If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married without unto a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her.

The argument hinges on Papal authority, which you do not accept. However, the conundrum of who interprets the Bible remains even if you do not accept Papal authority in matters of faith and morals.

The Pope is the head of the Catholic Church, Merkel is a secular leader that claims to be Lutheran but clearly isn't in her actions. I sure do hope you're pretending to be retarded.

>tripcodes officially more popular than anonymous posters

Not an argument, silly sausage.

>needing that many books to convince yourself of your bias
wew who would've thought.

No, we know who benefits from communism and it isn't working class whites. Your attempts to shill here are futile.

"Right-wing" socialism is basically Social Democracy or Welfare capitalism most of the time.

Private property almost always nvariably still exists and is owned by the capitalist class.

>80% of Brit/pol/s favourite posters are trips
>20% are bitter guest posters voting for themselves

>Reading books is bad
Couldn't make it up!

The proletariat benefit from communism you dip, whether or not they're white.

But it's fact that the Pope only denied the annulment due to Charles and would've otherwise accepted the annulment.

>>Reading books is bad
He didn't say that tho

He was implying that you are only consuming material which confirms your prior assumptions without challenging them

>The proletariat benefit from communism you dip

Reminder that Saint John Fisher was the best Bishop England ever had and that Luther was too much of a cuck to respond to any of his criticisms; the ONLY person to have this honor because he got btfo too hard

>claims to be Lutheran but clearly isn't in her actions

>raised Lutheran
>parents Lutheran
>not a Lutheran

Yet Blair is Catholic though he converted in 2007?

Commie shill please go

Patently false, I've read a great deal of right-wing literature and I always find it unconvincing and morally abhorrent. Especially the so-called "Anarcho" Capitalists who love Rothbard.

I'm merely promoting leftist books here because of the heavy bias toward reactionary nonsense like Mises and Hayek.

Are communists getting triggered in this thread lads?

Those who convert to a religion are often more pious than those who were born into one. Blair made a conscious decision to become a Roman Catholic, Merkel was born and raised Lutheran and considers herself such purely because of this.

Reminder that Protestantism shaped the national psyche and the country's politics for the entirety of the 17th, 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries.
Our entire history of glory came from Protestant thought. Do your best to remember that, Papist.

>Not an argument

Henry pitched the wrong annulment request eg. he'd have been better to argue that the marriage was invalid due to the pressure his father placed on him for political gain.

By applying on the basis of Leviticus 20:21, he was requesting a dispensation against the original dispensation which would have meant the pope contradicting his predecessor, which was not going to happen regardless of the Pope's precarious position militarily at the time.

>Communists
>Having morals

...

>mum found my pet anonymong

>The government is refusing to release 58 studies of the economic impact of leaving the EU.

>brexitcucks will unironically defend this

Is this a official holiday in UK?

>It's another "find a picture of an autistic person" episode.
There are ugly communists and non-ugly communists. Same thing with capitalists.

Contradicting his predecessor is irrelevant when the predecessor clearly erred.

>Thinking that all non Communists are capitalists

Must go now, I have better things to do.

Lol

You can't replicate a religious childhood. Regardless Blair was out of office by end of 2007, the year he converted.

If you take the Bible as your sole authority, and you think that the Pope was in error, then it comes down to Leviticus 20:21 v Deuteronomy 25:5 as per

Isn't Wretched Nonce literally one of the right hand men of Varg? I hear he has daily correspondence with him and visits him regularly.
I'm surprised he even has time to post here ten hours of the day with his hectic schedule

I'm off now lads, though I'd recommend the following reading guide (provided, that is, you're not frightened of new ideas, a reactionary trait): libcom.org/library/revolutionary-reading-chris-wright

There's also the following Marx bibliography:

Also included some non-Marxist communalism nonsense in the Pic Related in case that utopian trash interests you. It's worth reading, no doubt. But only once, and after Marxism.
