  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Not what I said at all, which throws into question so much of what you've already written.

There were no contenders for the heir of Rome.... BECAUSE THERE WERE NONE. The Roman Empire fell in 1453, with not one single power taking over from it as heirs. Historical fact.
I just told you Moscow took over as Third Rome. Everyone knows this.

Did the Turks build the megalithic structures in Siberia? I wonder what the red line could be throughout all these places :rolleyes:

Oh right let me guess, aliens :rolleyes:

What megalithic structures in Siberia?

Even at 10 mile there should be a 67 foot drop in curvature, but there isn't.
Your math fails you. At 10 miles the drop would be 6.7 feet. I guess you forgot the point.

And everybody knows that that's not true at all. Russian tsars used that claim to legitimize their rule. That's it.

The same way Wilhelm inherited the title Kaiser. Somebody before him assumed the title, and it became a standard word for the ruler in related languages/lands.

Tsar ... is a title historically used by Slavic monarchs. The term is derived from the Latin word caesar,[2] which was intended to mean emperor in the European medieval sense of the term—a ruler with the same rank as a Roman emperor, holding it by the approval of another emperor or a supreme ecclesiastical official—but was usually considered by Western Europeans to be equivalent to "king".

Tsar and its variants were the official titles in the First Bulgarian Empire (681–1018), Second Bulgarian Empire (1185–1396), the Kingdom of Bulgaria (1908–1946), the Serbian Empire(1346–1371), and the Tsardom of Russia (1547–1721). The first ruler to adopt the title tsarwas Simeon I of Bulgaria.

[Halfway through his reign, Simeon assumed the title of "emperor" (Tsar)]

With respect to Russia specifically:

The title-inflation [the assumption of being tsar] related to Russia's growing ambitions to become an Orthodox "third Rome", after the fall of Constantinople in 1453. The monarch in Moscow was recognized as an emperor by Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I in 1514.

So one soi disant Roman emperor recognized another.
Well it’s possible Wilhelm had pairity rights as well. I’m not like some here who think all the bloodlines of all the emperors are extinct. That would be rediculous. In that case I’m Caesar since I was adopted.

And any existing bloodlines would be so diluted that you'd have an ungodly number of people able to proclaim themselves emperor to the point it'd be worthless.

Now, if you just had a decent army, you could be, with just as much claim as the tsars' pretensions.

Well I actually think the Tsars claim was legitimate. I’ve done some research.

Hearsay again, there's no physical evidence.
Don't be daft.

A textbook is not hearsay.
A textbook, often, contains references to other scientific works, written by scientists. It might include details of experiments, measurements and photos.
You think all of that is hearsay? Do you even know what the word means?
Hearsay:
information that you have heard but do not know to be true

Everyone knows about megalithic structures in Siberia.

I obviously don't because I've not heard of this before now. So how about you show me such structures then.
