Tunder, you mixed up the GGG! D:

Everyone knows their priority was:
1. God. To spread the Lord's name.
2. Glory. With glory comes fame, and think about it, Ferdinand Magellan was able to say, "I was the first to circumnavigate the world!" thus giving him a lot of fame.
3. Gold. Gold was considered earthly back then (and to me and many others, still is) and therefore was the last priority in "God, Glory, and Gold" but was also one of the goals for explorers and adventurers alike in order to become rich.

Saying it doesn't matter is like saying the "deeply" religious kings had secular ideas (referring to kings during this age). I know others probably have figured it out and I think people might get upset about this thread, but I'm just pointing this out on the forum since Tunder3 was banned (don't discuss his ban here please, and yes, I do know about him having other accounts, said so himself on the forum) but I am unsure which account of his to private message.

it's not God's fault that Africa is poor or poorly managed, it's humanity's fault.


Dat contradiction.

What's that? You got no more replies now? You realized how silly your beliefs are. Religious logic destroyed

Conclusion: god is not real and all religions are fairy tales.

PS: Once again, I feel I didn't stress this enough. Do you see the madness and CONTRADICTION of your statements?

But dont forget that modern bridges, towers, skyscrapers tend to collapse even on minor earthquake, even on weak wind, while christian cathedrals, orthodox monasteries, muslim mosques, buddhist temples survives centuries without a single scratch, even after 2 world wars.

Africa?. If I'm not reading bull crap, it's not exactly poor, but poorly managed? And it's not God's fault that Africa is poor or poorly managed, it's humanity's fault. And if again, if I'm not reading things that are false or outdated, not that much of Africa is poor.

Africa is dirt poor. Poorly managed and no, it isn't humanities fault. It's their own fault. Multiple civilizations ahev been conquered, enslaved and recovered. The Spanish Empire is built upon dead Visigoths and seven centuries of constant war. So don't play the colonial card. Their situation is their own fault and no one else. If they were as capable as the rest of the world, they wouldn't have been colonized.
Skrivet av Guest, 24.01.2014 at 12:00
A completely different explanation of the latitude/wealth correlation might have to do with agriculture, if partially indirectly. In order to develop the industrial and service sectors of the economy, agriculture needs to be sufficiently productive that not too many people need to always be working the land. The modern agricultural techniques that enable that are best developed, and the knowledge mostly widely spread, in and for temperate climates. Tropical agricultural science is less developed, but perhaps even more importantly, knowledge of it is not widely dispersed in the tropical region. (Also, as for techniques that require capital investment and/or patience, unstable property rights may not be helpful either.) Much of this comes from some casual conversations with my uncle, who is a agricultural engineer specializing in tropical agriculture, so I don't have any good written references.

How is this at all relevant? Tropical climates have lesser development? It didn't stop the Mayans. In actual fact, colder climates have higher intelligence. The reason is obvious, its harder to survive so only the smartest (more adaptive) survive and breed more. Central Africa had none of these issues with survival. It was a paradise of resources. It's funny how the Mongols dominated most of Eurasia and they were a nomadic people who lived on open plains. You don't see that in Africa. Hell, they didn't domesticate a single animal. Not one. Almost any animal can be domesticated. Colonialists domesticated Zebra within a few generations. And if you are going to argue that the African climate creates more aggressive animals because then you are shooting yourself in the foot and admitting African people can be more aggressive. Your choice.
Skrivet av Guest, 24.01.2014 at 12:00
The same guy: It's rare in the social sciences to find data as clear-cut as this graph. As you can see, it's not so much Africa that's poor, but any place close to the equator is poor. And much of Africa happens to be close to the equator. Of course, re-framing the question doesn't answer it, but it is going to point the way to some interesting hypotheses.

Africa was pretty wealthy under Colonialism. Rhodesia was its breadbasket and now it cant feed itself. We've had this conversation before and you couldn't even reply after the utter rogering you got from it.
Skrivet av Guest, 24.01.2014 at 12:00
Before we go any further, let me point out that lack of capital (i.e. investment) is never an explanation of poverty all by itself. It can only be an explanation if you combine it with an account of why capital cannot flow in from other places. The reason is that if two places are similar in (potential) productivity, but one has a shortage of capital, then the returns to capital are going to be higher in that one (i.e. people are willing to pay a higher interest rate), and rational investors should move their money to that place until the interest rates equalize.

People don't invest in criminal hellholes. They'll invest in African resources but not in its population.
Skrivet av Guest, 24.01.2014 at 12:00
I point out the insufficiency of the "they have no money" argument because I often find implicit in discussions of third-world poverty that the problem with poor countries is simply that they "don't have any money" to buy farm machinery, or seeds, or industrial machinery, or infrastructure, or whatever.

Africa was provided with these. Not only were they left behind by colonialists but Africa receives enormous aid. They refuse to learn how the machinery works and usually buy new ones rather than investing in fixing it. Many of these countries are corrupt and as long as the people at the top are happy, they don't about the people below.
Skrivet av Guest, 24.01.2014 at 12:00
But if you had a poor country with such a lack of capital and no other obstacles to productivity or the ability of investors to get their fair share of the product of their investment, you would see an inrush of foreign investment, which is of course notably lacking in Africa. Also, in such a situation, it would be very easy to help the poor country with foreign aid, and we know historically that while foreign occasionally works, it is much harder to get it to do anything useful than we had naively assumed when foreign aid to poor countries first took off in a big way in the 2nd half of the 21st century. Hence, we dig deeper.

No one will invest in unstable regions with mass criminality. They will only invest in the stable resources and those who control them. Oil, diamonds, copper etc.
Skrivet av Guest, 24.01.2014 at 12:00
There are a number of different hypotheses here, and they've all been investigated using fancy econometrics. I'll give some generic indications of the sorts of directions that research has taken, but I'm not a specialist in development economics and I don't really know the current state of the art.

Hypotheses? They are excuses. WHY WONT THEY INVEST IN OUR CRIMINAL REGIONS! THEY ARE RACIST
Skrivet av Guest, 24.01.2014 at 12:00
As for hypotheses that directly link latitude, and the associated differences in climate, to economic outcomes, for instance by way of its effect on agriculture, I have the impression that development economists find it hard to make those stick.

The most fertile land in the world and they cant feed themselves? That is not an economic issue. Colonialists didn't have these problems.
Skrivet av Guest, 24.01.2014 at 12:00
A lot of research has focused on colonization and the way it has influenced institutions. I see in one of the answers the claim that colonization made Africa poor, but strangely enough, it is the poor countries close to the equator that were often colonized late and half-heartedly, with more emphasis on quick extraction of resources (or slaves!) and less on settlement and the building of lasting institutions or infrastructure. Why? Maybe because Europeans (and before them Arabs, who conquered the Mediterranean coast of Africa but never went very far into sub-Saharan Africa) couldn't deal with tropical diseases, or because they couldn't figure out how to do large-scale export-focused agriculture in the tropics...

Yes they did. The Caribbean run by the French exported huge amounts of sugar. Africa did the same. Institutions? What institutions did they have? They barely had a written language unless they were influenced by Arabs. It's land was incredibly fertile and given enough time, they would have expanded in agriculture. South Africa had more time to develop compared to other colonies. Slaves? What period? Slavery was banned when colonialism was at its peak. Most slave trade came from small coastal settlements where slaves of African tribes were sold there. Excuses, excuses. Colonial Africa was an economic powerhouse and would have grown stronger given more development.

Catholicism(western christianty) claimed earth was flat

No it didn't. It never did. We have known the world was round since Ancient Greek times. The Flat Earth myth was claimed in the 19th century as propaganda to demonize the past before the Enlightenment era. Everyone knew the world was round, even the Bible claims it is Oval shaped.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_of_the_Flat_Earth
Citera:
During the early Middle Ages, virtually all scholars maintained the spherical viewpoint first expressed by the Ancient Greeks. From at least the 14th century, belief in a flat Earth among the educated was almost nonexistent
Citera:
The myth that people in the Middle Ages thought the earth is flat appears to date from the 17th century as part of the campaign by Protestants against Catholic teaching. But it gained currency in the 19th century, thanks to inaccurate histories such as John William Draper's History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science (1874) and Andrew Dickson White's A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom (1896). Atheists and agnostics championed the conflict thesis for their own purposes, but historical research gradually demonstrated that Draper and White had propagated more fantasy than fact in their efforts to prove that science and religion are locked in eternal conflict
I'm astonished you would make such a claim and using pro Enlightment myths to do it.
Skrivet av Skanderbeg, 26.01.2014 at 13:14
Catholicism(western christianty) claimed earth was flat
Orthodoxy(eastern christianity) never claimed such things, neither Islam or other religions. So using only one part of one of many religions to claim God doesnt exist doesnt prove anything.

As if the Eastern Orthodoxy was even relevant? Most inventions were developed in Central and Western Europe under the guidance, approval and funding of the Catholic and Protestant church. You have zero objective thought. None. Zip. Nada. You couldn't think laterally if you had a gun at your head. Thinking outside the box? You couldn't think your way out of a toilet cubicle. Are you so dense that you can't question the slightest bit of dogma? Can't you self reflect on your own views and question them?

Anyone that claims the Church believed the world was flat is simple as fuck. And someone that uses such blatant and obvious post enlightenment propaganda to insult the Catholic Church but promote Islam and the Orthodoxy is an utter shill of no limits.

First Capitalism isn't competitive, then Tanks and other armaments have no cost? Now you are adding the Flat Earth myth? You know what bugs me other than hypocrisy? Self depreciation. You insult the Church just to be politically correct. You sell your own religious brothers down the river to be morally superior in an argument. You make me feel sick. Literally sick. Of all your idiotic posts, this hits a core. You dogmatic fool, you still play by the rules of the old Schism and even use Enlightenment propaganda to sell out your kin. You disgust me.
