This makes sense

though monotheism really is a pretty broad area of theology, so pretty vague

My results. http://www.dichotomytests.com/results.html?id=0&m=-75&e=-92.5&i=10&h=-92.5&n=-70&r=0&s=-55&fbclid=IwAR0YZ7TO3WM4ygBdXSFwjyuuMSIQM8TRP27HlhfkCd2g4GZEKYe0N9W498Y

[Napkiraly]

As opposed to Canada or the UK which are glorious caesaropapist monarchies ruled over by Prince Regent Charles where the masses know their place and the guild system is working as perfectly as ever.

All sarcasm aside, many of the modern day problems in Britain and Canada are either a result of American influence, or at least the same philosophies of the so-called "Enlightenment" which influenced the American "Founding Fathers".

The problems would have arisen anyway. The groundwork was laid with the defeat of the Royalists during the English Civil Wars and especially after the "Glorious" Revolution. After that the monarchy was continuously sidelined and its power limited overtime.

It's worth noting that not many despots were able to fully stem the tide either.

The reason I don't much care for this kind of stuff is because in a Top 5 figures poll I did: my first was Ayn Rand, second I had Karl Marx, and third had something to do with Monarchy. I am skeptical of these polls and assert they are equal in usability to those surveys you can do with Scientology (i.e. none what so ever).

[Zex]

Actually, who here wants to do Scientology polls and post our results after doing an interview?
EDIT: jesus nvm it's like 200 question.

My economic scores make a lot more sense.

[Bienenhalde]

With regards to the Monarchy in America debate; Ideally, as Parkus has stated many times, the best thing to do with the United States is just change the franchise as well as governmental structure. My personal list:
- Re-institution of literacy tests

That might be a good idea; perhaps without so many uneducated voters Trump would have lost in the primary.

and poll taxes with objective standards; I have no intention of it functioning as these did in the South in the 20th Century, but it does seem rather odd we have civil service exams but allow universal suffrage.
- Re-institution of property qualifications

Wouldn't poll taxes and property qualifications just make the system more biased in favor of rich capitalists and big business?

- The overturning of Reynolds v. Sims and applying it to all levels of voting
- Revocation of the 17th Amendment, returning control of the Senate to the States

I suppose those would be steps in the right direction.

- Revocation of the 19th Amendment

Absolutely not. Besides the blatant unfairness of restricting the vote based on sex, women also tend to be more religious than men. I think the electorate is already too secular and socially liberal as things currently stand.

- Single six year term for Presidents
- Four year terms for House members

What difference would this make? And anyway, I am still convinced that it would be better just to abolish the presidency and restore monarchy.

- Campaign finance reform, most obviously by ending Citizens United

Okay.

This is true. They helped roll back Peter the Great's bs. Khomiakov is now actually quoted as an authority among the Orthodox.

He drsstically expanded serfdom, seized all church property, banned women from.becoming nuns except for old widows, and told priests they must report confession of crime to the state. He adnired Protestant stste churches and wanted the Russisn Orthodox Church to be like them.

1: What will there tests entail?
2: What's a civil service exam?
3: What do you mean by "universal suffrage"? Everyone having the right to vote?

- Re-institution of property qualifications

What do you mean?

- The overturning of Reynolds v. Sims and applying it to all levels of voting

What was that case about?

- Revocation of the 17th Amendment, returning control of the Senate to the States

>Looks up
How would that give Senate power to the states again? They already have representation in the federal gov.

- Revocation of the 19th Amendment

Didn't that give women the right to vote?

- Campaign finance reform, most obviously by ending Citizens United

Who are they?

Point made. I'll just stay with taking my morality from the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah.

Peter the Great should be made a saint, to be honest.

But he told people they couldn't grow beards.

Did he enforce that on Muslim men?

As I understand it, Muslims had a rough life in Russia in certain time periods, so I'm asking this becaus of that. Also, how were Muslims treated under Peter?

banned women from.becoming nuns except for old widows

Why?

I can forgive many things for men who force the Ottomans to heel.

The Slavophiles were the best movement in 19th century Eastern Europe.

Only until they realized that the Catholic Western Slavs were completely inimical to a united and strong Russian state. Aside from that, I also disagree with their weird idea that censorship and other forms of economic and political repression was somehow a "Western" influence, which imo just shows an over-romanticisation of Russia's past.

[The National Salvation Front for Russia]

This is true. They helped roll back Peter the Great's bs. Khomiakov is now actually quoted as an authority among the Orthodox.

I understand that you're an American Orthodox, but do you have any Russian roots? You seem to express a lot of interest/knowledge on Russian authors and history.
