/lit/ - Literature

Just post whatever you want to talk about. Only dumbass cucks give a shit about topics they don't care to discuss. Any good effort post about any topic is welcome anon

>>20021806
Ah that’s good to hear. I don’t mind opposing ideas as long as they do not seep into unrelated discussions.

Perhaps I will start a Quran discussion general. I did not see a general in the catalog

/lit/ is a Catholic board you saracen nazi heretic. Repent of your sins and convert to the true faith Latin Rite Catholicism. I am willing to answer your questions as to why you believe a false religion inspired by the talmud and why Catholicism is the one true faith but for a primer I ask that you watch this video https://youtu.be/aCeSJw3Qzls

Muslims posters come here and regularly embarrass themselves because their religion makes them incapable of abstract thinking.

As-salamu alaykum my brother, /lit/ is a esoteric board, we follow the path of mystics like rene guenon pbuh, ibn arabi al ghazali among other sufi mystics
God bless you brother

Define abstract thinking. It was my understanding that Muslims had made the more contributions to science and the arts than any group in history.

>>20021882
Muslims hate art, in fact I'm pretty sure they deny any art that isn't directly about the Quran/Moh

>>20021864
/lit/ is a traditionalist islamic board fuck off brainlet

>>20021882
>It was my understanding that Muslims had made the more contributions to science and the arts than any group in history.
Islamic art is pretty limited outside of calligraphy and architecture. I consider science far less abstract than doing philosophy and theology, and Muslims tend to be pretty bad at it. It's not a coincidence that the Western philosophy was able to develop into something worthwhile for the first time in over a millennium is when it abandoned the Christianized version of medieval Islamic philosophy.
that being said, medieval Muslims made many contributions to the development of science, but whether they've contributed more than any other group is likely impossible to measure.

Guenon is really embarrassing. Evola was at least wacky enough to be entertaing.

Islam is a satanic jew talmud psyop, muhamad was even possessed by a demon, which you muslims always try to forget. Repent and join the try faith Latin Rite Catholicism

The jannies only delete Christian threads so post away

>>20021986
Not him, I'm not a muslim but it doesnt stop me from reading and learning about islam and its fascinating culture, history, philosophy and esoteric teachings and mysticism.

>>20021986
>my religious dogma LE GOOD and 100% correct because the bible said it was!

>>20021797
/lit/ is for all people of the Book

>>20022002
>philosophy and esoteric teachings and mysticism.
It's always seemed ot me that Islam is so reductive that its practitioners never really have anything interesting to say.

>>20022030
Yeah turns out most christians are also like that, 95% of the general population is composed of midwits and retards, independent of the religion

>>20022005
The Holy Bible is true yes we have physical evidence of Traditional Catholicism being the one true faith, please reference the video posted here
>>20021858

>>20022045
Interesting that midwits always resort to "my faith is the one true faith" including Muslims, Catholics, Evangelicucks, etc etc.. Enlightened individuals, traditionalists and mystics are able to see beyond the curtain of religious dogma and search for the common truths and true essence of spirituality present in different religious traditions

notice how the western cope for the islamic golden age changes everytime they get called out for it lmfao
>>>/pol/

>>20022043
But the difference is that's true for 100% of Muslims, and it seems ti be very related to their religion.
>>20022284
Everyone knows that Muslims were very successful during the Middle Ages. That doesn't change the fact that all positive development sin philosophy to have occurred during the last 500 years came from actively, even if it was indirectly, rejecting their work. No amount of cope can ever compare to the way Muslims themselves over exaggerate their achievements. hey even lie about inventing algebra when their religion tells them that lying is a very, very bad sin, and when they get called out, they'll just say that they invented modern algebra.

>>20022319
>hey even lie about inventing algebra
alrighty, so who discovered america?

>>20022325
I guess natives would be the first to do it, which was something drilled into my head during my very Western education. The first Europeans to do it were the vikings. Colombus made it relevant to the world by opeing it up for long-term colonization, but that's a very different thing, and I would never claim he did it because I don't lie to overstate my people's achievements. It's why I've consistently stated that Muslims have made contributions to various fields of knowledge in this thread, even if my intellectual honesty makes me describe some of them less than favorably (like their negative contributions to philosophy) or limit the claims Muslims have made (like in the cae of their advancement of Algebra).

ok since youre going to be all faggy about it
>I consider science far less abstract than doing philosophy and theology
because their religion makes them incapable of abstract thinking.
demonstrate this

>>20021976
>traditional lifestyle for a Frenchman.
french and european peoples are generally defined by the lack of tradition, and reducing guenon to orientalism makes you seem all the more like a pretentious faggot who doesnt know what he's talking about

>>20022066
>Enlightenment individuals
Mlady *tips fedora* oy vey rabbi don't you have some more countries to subvert I thought you were elbow deep in the Ukrainian president with one arm and elbow deep in putin with the other, why are you trying to subvert our little congalese thatchwork forum
>common truths and true essence of spirituality present in different religious traditions
There is but one truth and that is God according to traditional Catholicism
>Jesus saith to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me. - John 14:6

>>20022371
>french and european peoples are generally defined by the lack of tradition
This is just dependent on a (in this case intentionally) bad understanding of used to justify an attraction to cultures and lifestyles that to them were novel, exotic, and absolutely reducible to Orientalism.
Guenon and his followers could be more accurately be labeled as stupid hypcracy-ism. They're really that bad.

picrel lol, describes you perfectly + you didnt address any of my other arguments, nor put and of guenons to use in refuting him and your grammar is shit which leads me to believe youre a retarded hindu dindu faggot
>>20022344

listen diaspoo, if your whole argument is that this is a good thing, dont bitch to me about it, rajNEET

What other arguments? I put Guenon in his historical context and stated that an honest look at him shows him to be more of an anti-traditional thinker than anything else. As far as I'm concerned Geunon's work is so Orientalist in nature that to deny that it was is practically to deny that it exists at all. The historical context is all that is needed in this case to demonstrate that Guenon and his followers are clowns.
>listen diaspoo, if your whole argument is that this is a good thing, dont bitch to me about it, rajNEET
I'm neither Hindu nor Indian. My mother took one of those DNA tests, and it said she was like half-a-percent Arab, but that's the closest I get. The reason for describing my education as "very western" was to contrast the way westerners talk about themselves to the way Muslims do. The education I received was obsessed with giving credit and describing the achievements of non-westerners as opposed to the way Muslims speak of themselves, which is to say that they're greatest at everything in all aspects. This can be seen earlier in the thread:
>It was my understanding that Muslims had made the more contributions to science and the arts than any group in history.
The fact that you couldn't infer this, demonstrates your inability to read more than anything else.

I guess this is the level of discussion that reading Guenon prepares you for.
