    Nothing to discuss here. "Fundamentalism" does not equal "Traditionalism" in any way, if anything it is a direct contradiction for obvious reasons. A movement of this sort would be also concerned a bit more with Sufism and interpretation of the Qu'ran, than with teenagers with AKs and "Islam for Beginners" tourist guides.

    Traditionalisms of the various sorts are also, I dunno, quite concerned about the meaning of Tradition, including the lower level of the historical sense of it. I'm pretty sure smashing around the graves of your prophets as your highlight doesn't count as such.

    ISIS is not a "traditionalist movement". It is a bunch of Warcraft III Death Cultists that just want to kill stuff and watch the world burn for the lulz.
    "War under the feudal regimes of Western Europe in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries often seemed more like sport than serious business. In the Flanders War of 1127, which involved about a thousand knights fighting for over a year, only one died by the hand of an enemy; an equal proportion of the total losses of the war resulted from excessive horn-blowing... cont
    At Bouvines, which Ferdinand Lot described as “un Austerlitz medieval,” the victorious French are said to have lost only two men-at-arms (out of about three thousand); perhaps seventy to one hundred of the fifteen hundred defeated German knights were killed. At Lincoln in 1217, three knights were killed and four hundred captured. ... cont
    Orderic Vitalis tells us that at Bremule (1119), where nine hundred knights of two royal armies came head-to-head, only three were killed." - Rogers, Clifford J., "The Military Revolutions of the Hundred Year's War" in "The Journal of Military History" v. 57 (1993)

    You called me a heretic, once. Now it's my turn! How dare you blaspheme and believe in anything that is not God, my friend? Even Satan is a mere tool of the ABSOLUTE.
    Can you give a link to that lecture piece about nominalism you posted some time ago? Cannot into googlig it.
    As soon as I get my original account unbanned I'm going on a fisting spree with your posts. You always seem to articulate what I'm thinking very well. Keep fighting the good fight, bro.
    Why do you listen to such boring music? Listen to fun stuff like Taylor Swift!

    In works of dignity in his music, differentiation -- which to untutored ears damages the objectivity of the content -- is of a piece with the developing capacity to shape the work more precisely, to purge it of all residue of the schematic, and precisely this is what is called objectivation.
    You always know what to say.
    Thank you.

    I know it's hard to take me seriously in a way, but I really do want to just find ideals and truths; and in this world, that's very difficult. It's like the self always gets in the way.
    "Truly objective arguments are venom to those people", that's because the feminine don't like to be objectified.
