It doesn't matters how history is interpreted, if there was no war It matters a lot, if we are talking about universal human history, rather than just Political History. It is about the other half of philosophical and scientific "investigations" of Man or Human Nature [abstracted here from its Being There (Dasein) in the universe]. // History, says Vico, is the story of the modifications of the human mind in the course of time. The historian, says Polibius, is not a mere chronicler; he seeks the causes of events. As such, he is an interpreter of history....--of great practical importance. |

The historian, says Polibius, is not a mere chronicler; he seeks the causes of events. As such, he is an interpreter of history....--of great practical importance. Oh, I've made of mistake. Instead of "...was no war" I had to write down "... will be no wars". I mean if a certain interpretation saves us from the war in future, it's a good interprataton. I know, and your arguments are relevant and correct here, because the history is important. And I know that there are ways such that Sextus Empiricus or Plato told us about - that to lie for doing something good is okay. I don't really know, but my argument is a part of the argument from St. Thomas: that if an action A leads us to the greater good (from a Christian point of view), it is a good acton. So, if this interpretation causes no war, this interpretation is good. Besides, I think many people are needed in balance, and "no war" interpretation are seemed to be balanced. |

His famous quotes: ......please search: Polibius quotes .......... also: my.country.europe.com/history/the-roman-concept-of-humanitas good reads for Europeists or Europeist-to-be................ I reject the idea that Europeism is the desire for Europe to be "my country" (since I am all in favor of nationalisms) or for Europe to havea Union like the present Globalist/Communist one, a disgrace and ruin. My Europeism is an ethnic/cultural one and can be called Heritage Europeism: Most Europeans and their descendants have at least a triple unity: they are racially Caucasians (though mainly either Mediterranids or Fulvians/blondish); linguistically Indo-European, as my book will empirically prove; and modern "Recontrivers" i.e., makers of the modern culture since the 17th century with its industrial and scientific revolutions./Those who inherit and accept this ethnicity cherish and protect it; commemorate their ancestors, and preserve customs etc. of their particular ancestral nationality. |

It seems there are some meta-organisations, and they won't let auch dreams come true. I don't think there are left people who are strictly for the gppd and fair, and instead they're dreaming of wars, wars, wars, or money, money, money (which is the same for me). How can an ethnical unity can be reached if even the control of the migration isn't at hands of the native Italians, Francis, Germans, Switzerlands, Polands, etc. We don't have anymore our lands, because we've lost the last courage to fight. Bringing back the control cannot be done without spilling tons of blood, and ruining stadiums of buildings. I guess there is no other way to bring this ethnicity idea back, except for racism politics. But personally, I am so disappointed in the humanity, I don't believe in any good scenario. I believe everything will be worse. People are greed and cruel. Only few are merciful and modest. So I don't believe the heaven can be built there on the Earth. And each "heaven" on the Earth is a fictional dim, an illusion, and a ghost-babel. |

It doesn't matters how history is interpreted, if there was no war How do those two things follow? History is rife with war but its filled with a lot of other things too. Politics, plagues, religion, sex, philosophical movements. We are generally in a time of peace right now unprecedented in human history. Does it matter how what is happening now is interpreted in the future? |
