What if we are born with not only sin but freedom as well?

This scene was really powerful.

It is very easy to misinterpret words, read them out of context or manipulate them to justify your actions.

The real art is to read with an open mind, to discover the truth in the truth and to get to the real meaning.

Slavs and Vikings Festival in Wolin, Poland

The Slavs and Vikings Festival is one of the largest early-medieval events in the world. There are archery and spear-throwing competitions, games and contests for kids, craft-making presentations demonstrating how jewelry, coins, horns, and amber were created, live music, readings, and much more.

Wolin is a town located on Poland’s largest island (of the same name) on the coast of the Baltic Sea. It's a City of History, whose glory days date back to 1000 years ago. In the early Middle Ages, it was one of the largest and most powerful cities in this part of Europe, and ranked among the most important ports of the Baltic Sea. Wolin is considered to have been the gateway through which Scandinavians traveled southwards from the Baltic Sea to inland Piast state.

lando’s win in zandvoort is for sure going to make the rest of this year interesting. especially since we saw the issues red bull has first hand and how much max couldn’t handle it (he drove amazing though no hate).

but it also sets up for an interesting 2025 year. because we know lando is great of course- but so is oscar. and im really interested to see how mclaren handles having two really good drivers on the grid. especially since oscar is wdc material. i’m not entirely sure what this race is foreshadowing yet but it’s foreshadowing something and it’s going to showcase in 2025.

also- max’s future at red bull. this race proved that red bull is well and truly falling quickly and with the exit of that engineer (i’m so tired i forgot his name) it sets up for an even more disastrous 2025- especially if red bull loses the wcc to mclaren which is a very real scenario and has been for a few races now. i also think while they didn’t have hopes to win this race- they were not expecting to lose THAT MUCH to norris. so now max is probably asking what’s his deal with red bull. and we know he’s not planning to stay if f1 forever, maybe a few more years. i do wonder if it makes sense for toto to revisit his persuasion and have max do some crazy resurgence of dominance with mercedes in 2026 if red bull continue to fall off.

i know if i was toto i would at least try and bring up those points- and those ring more true and evident now then when he was trying to get verstappen for 2025.

Piast Kołodziej

Bez Jezusa nie pokonałam swojego serca, które chce kochać wiecznie. No i cóż Jezu - czy będziemy się ścigać , kto pierwszy stanie przed Świętym Obliczem Ojca ? To takie.... -proste. -Nie, Jezu. - dla mnie jest to okultyzm, a tego bym nie chciała. -Ale beze Mnie będziesz się w tych sprawach bardzo męczyła. ................... ................... - To mogłoby być absurdalne Myszko, gdyby w "grę" nie wchodziłą tak wielka miłość do Mnie. Czy bez skazy? Nie wiem, po prostu nie wiem. A wiesz co znaczy Moje nie wiem. - Że mogę się opierać także i w tych sprawach. - Tak, w sprawach proroctwa. Spróbuj być grzecznie moją oblubienicą. To ci wystarczy - na wiele. - spraw? - Nie, na wiele próśb, na zażegnanie wielu złorzeczeń, któe ludzie mają w związku ze Mną. , bo zapomnieli połączyć się ze MNą z modlitwą na ustach. -I z uczuciem do Ciebie w sercu. - Za wiele wymagasz. :) - To smutny uśmiech. -Wiem. - Kochaj mnie Jezu łągodną miłością zmartwychwstałego Baranka. - To ci się nie uda. - Mimo to próbuję. - Myszko , czy ty jesteś śmiała? - To zależy - Mizoginizm? O to Mnie oskarżyłaś? -Nie mówmy o tym. -Starczyło ci serca? - Z ledwością - To wszystko otwiera ci rany- tego chcesz - Muszę kończyć. - Myszko... Myszko... - Ależ idę się modlić. -Przełykam ślinę , tak dobrze, tak można. To możliwe. - Spotkać się u Taty? - Nie tego oczekiwałem. - Jako mój Mąż? - Oczekiwałem cudu. I go mam... oczekiwałem

Two thousand years. If all those years did not lead to an answer, perhaps the truth never needed us at all. However, even if we were wrong, what we have written will have meaning to history. I pray for that to be true.

FOUR WIVES OF LADISLAUS JAGIELLO AESTHETICS

↪ anne of cilli

“ in the literature is well—established opinion that anne was a calm, passive person who had no particular influence on her husband, his advisors and the public life of the kingdom. anne never took jadwiga's place, because it wasn't even legally possible — jadwiga was born prepared for the role of queen, which she later fulfilled with distinction in all areas. anne, on the other hand, was not raised to be future queen and had to prepare herself for such an important position in short period of time. despite that, she was warmly welcomed in poland and throughout her life with the king, accompanied him on his journeys, fulfilling her representative role that, due to her piast origins, took a political character on polish lands. [...] anne participated in many political events in the background, so we can conclude her political involvement was mostly a formality, but there are some indications that she was not as passive as it might seem at first glance.”

This chapter features some of my favorite dialogue in manga, and it really shows just how much philosophy knowledge Uoto brings to the plate. It also offers an example I can point to when talking about how people need to analyze media on a deeper level than just it's character interactions and dynamics.

We begin with a miniature discussion on the theory of universals, which touches on the bulk of the philosophy we have to analyze outside of the story; epistomology and metaphysics. To sum up the theory of universals, aristotle posed that shared properties (a red apple and a red truck) could be seen as universals (the universal property of redness). If universals can be discussed and ascribed, is it such that universals exist as separate entities? If that is the case, what sort of existence is a universal?

Badeni is naturally a nominalist, the theory that universals are simply labels, and that universals and abstracts do not exist simply via the virtue of the fact they can be described. Jolanta offers a more radical version of the proposal, where she denies that any abstracts exist as anything beyond names. This obviously shows her role as the one who pushes forward harder, regardless of her outward personality.

The next phase in their convo involves a very important setpiece: an era appropriate globe held within Piast's observatory. The importance of this globe should be obvious. Folk knowledge is such that Columbus (for example,) discovered that the earth was round, yada yada. In actuality Erastosthenes managed to calculate the circumference of the earth some time around 240 bc. The round earth stands as a symbol of humanity moving forward perpetually in science. It's Kuhn's idea that science always moves forward (an idea I personally find vaguely off yet I still struggle to form a good essay to rebut him.) The globe is also clearly incorrect, entirely missing the western hemisphere, imploring the audience to consider how The Movement Of The Earth moves us toward toward truth.

A+ section, philosophy is amazing.
