On FB I referenced the dark ages and all the death it caused and some religious nut reported me for intolerance and I got banned. That was a long time ago. FB was going downhill for a very long time.

I started to refresh my knowledge about the Dark Ages. The feudal system and the caste system are very similar to what the technocrats are planning.

The problem is, donald and his pals think of this as the good old days

Accurate THANK YOU for sharing

Remember the Bible story about Jesus walking into a temple with all the money changers? Jesus was livid turning tables over in total disgust.

Interesting that as a group humans have to keep learning the same lessons over and over.

And most devices of ‘medieval’ torture are modern inventions.

The world is seven times larger than Europe, Canada, Australia, and the US together.

This is so inaccurate.

The folks who brought us the Crusades & the Inquisition! Plus loads of idiotic religious wars all where dudes claiming to be holy warriors behaved like modern day jihadists.

Mental institutions were built for this very reason. To accommodate those who wished harm to society by their proposed actions. Only 2 doctors were needed to sign those people afflicted into an institution. Just 2!

Please don't just share on this forum. Get on the phone or e-mail and tell someone in DC what you think. It only takes a few minutes and best of all..it doesn’t cost any money. We don’t need money in politics. We just need people to participate. www.nationalfinancialplan.com

It’s also based on a sort of Renaissance snobbery about the Latin and script used during the period that declared it to be “dark” because there was nothing worthy of being read.

Pitchfork season

Nope. If the world were run along Christian axioms, there'd be no hatred of women no hunger, no homelessness, no casting out. The Two Great Commandents (as Jesus taught): First, Love the Lord with heart, mind, and spirit; Second, _which is like it_, Love your neighbor as yourself.

We are sure on that path once again! And don’t forget how the Dark Ages ended!

Woman were called witches for knowing how to read and scientists were purged from society lol

😂

We live a modified version of the dark age. It’s all hidden in plain sight.

Sequels are always worse so Dark Ages 2 - Even Darker........

I can hear the soundtrack of Les Mis playing already

Murderers and power grabbers will always adorn their deeds with the trappings of sound principles. Religion is far from the only idea men have proven willing to kill for.

* Religious zealots The problem isn't simply one of Christianity .. Islam, Judaism and Hinduism are all also playing a role in the current car crash of extremism, oligarchy and autocracy which this world is becoming.

correction: one person (petrarch) named it the dark ages because he was mourning the roman empire.

I read somewhere something along the same lines'' Once upon a time, everyone believed in God and the church ruled, we called this period in time'' The Dark Ages.''

I refer to this time in history as “The Unlightenment”.

and there may be another one here soon if not, it's happening already

They all just wanted to ‘win’. They don’t care what they won. Just that ‘we won. Cry about it’. As if they’re still on the playground (maybe that’s when America was great - when they were the schoolyard bullies).

Brilliant 👍

Right!? During the creation of America they were very specific about avoiding these 2 things, 1. having a King and 2. the church/religion being involved in law making. Now…here we are again.

The modern state of Israel have decided the use evil Christian zealots to their effect.

Trump is not the new Jesus ... not now....not ever.

In front of the English Parliament Building is a statue of Evangelical Puritan Gen. Oliver Cromwell. Cromwell invaded Ireland and exterminated 1/3rd of the population, 1,000,000 men, women, teens, toddlers and babies in the name of Jesus. Irish people visiting London spit on his statue.

Yes well could try the new dark ages by burning lieing Christian's and politians.. worth a look .... Could even be fun 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ih I am an atheist....

They voted for this

Religious Extremists are DANGEROUS in ALL religions. The "my way or the celestial highway" is a fight to the death with them and they promote destruction and genocide. And what's so sick THEY claim the MORAL high ground and say they are the Moral Majority among the believers, when they are neither.

These are post-Dark Ages things to be honest, and often run by / for the poor (as a distraction, but that does not mean "the rich made them do it", just "the rich knew that there are enough hateful pricks they have to redirect"). People in the Dark Ages had enough trouble surviving and migrating.

Religion is not a replacement for logic, reason, ethics, or just being a good person, nor is it incompatible in my opinion. This new insanity is where people proclaiming to love Christ's teachings make an idol of a man who seldom follows them, well I'm fairly sure we were warned.

NOPE. The Dark Ages is called that because for a long while scholars were “in the dark about it” cos the communities in Britain at the time were more into oral tradition than writing things down. Since then we’ve found loads of stuff so it’s no longer dark.

This is what happens when we don’t learn history, we can’t absorb it and critically analyze it. We tend to repeat it.

This time round. With the attacks on the Environment. There will be NO'Dark Ages' Or any Ages!!!

That's why people came to America for freedoms they didn't have elsewhere they were taken by the religious zealots and by Rich people who are indenturing them and making them servants

It’s the old adage, if we don’t learn from the mistakes of history we are bound to repeat those mistakes. The strange part about being human is that we are evolving. But sometimes the humans that haven’t evolved try to rip us back. It’s like an abuser who tries to keep you in a bad relationship.

Should have been better

Yikes!

The current rabble are not in any discernible way Christian. Even if that of itself that was desirable.

1000000%

The dark age was named because little was known about it, nothing to do with religion.

As I have mentioned a few times over the last week, historians will refer to these times as The Dark Ages 2.0

Too late. We’re in The Dark Ages 2.0 now.

When the far right Vivik lectured on poor education it was aimed at the Appalachian belt . But the flip side that benefits the far right is they do not study , look up, or know history. This goes right over their head. Religion right fills in the gap. But you are correct.

There is a reason the founding fathers did not include any religion in The US Constitution, and that is because of the harm it caused in Europe. Read The Federalist papers and you will know what I said is true.

Just people trying to blame whatever group they happen to already have a bias against for all the world’s problems.

C'mon now! I ALWAYS hear talk about medieval times, but no one ever mentions earlieval or latievil periods in history. ...and I'm pretty sure evil has been with us the entire time...

Ever since Paul Weyrich founded the heritage foundation with an actual Nazi who worked with the third Reich, we've seen a drastic rollback in everything resembling societal and scoentific progress. Religion has no place in government.

All I can say is you better get your money out of the country

Another idiot post. Maybe use the library and pick up a book and learn about the dark ages. F wit.

So you are a Biden lover who loves to see the US burning to ashes. May the devil have your soul.

The good news is that it was followed by the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. It will happen again, but we won't live to see it.

Word Up Oliver!

I've always wondered what the Dark Ages were really like. Turns out, we may actually get the opportunity to find out firsthand. What a time to be alive. 😨

Exactly

While they had the Inquisition, Trump has the Acquisition.

Correct

and ours will be the dork ages

This country was colonized by religious zealots deemed too extreme for their homeland. Then it was founded by entitled white dudes throwing a tantrum over taxes. We actually had to have a horrible war to convince people that owning humans was wrong. And we’re surprised that this is our legacy?

Those dumb enough to burn history books are doomed to repeat it.

Thank you for specifying the zealots and lumping all Christians in that. Believe it or not there are millions who hate the bastardization of their faith.

No mate. We usually call it the Modern Age - the period of the Renaissance, the Baroque, exploration and the first scholars. These were the times when most of the so-called witch trials took place and most of the religious wars were fought.

I’m not partisan but any sort of religious zealotry will do 😣

Even the 1920s so-called titans tried to appear benevolent by spending a portion of their wealth on building schools, museums, public parks & charitable projects to leave behind as legacy. These guys' legacy is competing against each other on who can destory the most of humanity, it seems.

Or the Inquisition.

We worship power and violence in too many films and games. This new leadership choice is a result

Yes. She has a memorial. But my family had to dig her out of the ground next to the gallows and rebury her. The jury found her innocent, the judge made them reconsider. Fuck Cotten Mather.

In their defense the same has happened whenever religious fanatics of any type have had a role in government anywhere in the world. Religious fanatics are… consistent.

Well,johnson and the boys, even pence, would welcome, the return of the Crusades. Unfortunately, there is no light between radical ,rabid religious fanatics.

Uhm, well, turns out we named it wrong - wasnt really dark or all crap, so the joke is on us today for not understanding before concluding.

Very much not looking forward to this. But I'm glad Ive.made the best during the good times.

Diaper Boy better pay attention

Remember in Star Trek the next generation when Q out humanity on trial and used “21st century” dystopian outfits and courts to do it? I am scared.

I'm so tired of religious twaddle. Can't we please evolve past this antiquated nonsense?

No. The term 'Dark Ages' was coined by Christians.

Who is we?

This ignores a lot of historical context. It wasn’t like “we tried” to have the Roman Empire fall.

well that's not accurate either, so the main part of "the dark ages aren't a real thing" still stands.

Honor the Founder Gods blessings upon Gilaeds rise!

🤣😭❤️
