>He's also considered a false prophet by quite a few Christians. The Bible warns about false prophets.

The Bible also warned against worshipping others false God beside God including worshipping fellow human or worshipping other prophets, but most Christians are doing exactly that by worshipping Jesus via the misleading concept of Trinity formalized by the Council of Nicea [1].

>I asked you about what additional information should be in the essay which would be relevant to the goal and readership of the essay. You haven't.

I've given the many relevant additional information but you did not accept the facts that were presented to you.

The only way to settle the contention is by me or you writing the refereed article on tide prediction with proper historical knowledge lineage to setting the record straigth. Since none of us not is willing to do that then it's pointless of you replying to this thread anymore unless you want to waste your time.

The bottom line is that according to me the OP article lack proper references and citations of the prior arts from Arab and muslim scholars contributions between the Greek and Renaissance era. If you think otherwise you are entitled to your opinions.

To be fair, that's more the Third Republic's verdict than what recent historians have concluded. For sure, Sedan was a catastrophe and the Mexican adventure was worse, but the two decades in between gave France the railway build-out, Haussmann's Paris, the creation of modern investment banks, and even universal male suffrage, which the Republic then kept ([1], [2] & [3]).

In this particular instance, everybody in this thread seems to be forgetting the region where the fires are currently raging used to be very unsanitary swamps before the pine forests were planted. These older wetlands were a major source of disease and misery for the local population. The reason why they only planted pines were because the soil there is poor & acidic. Nothing else grows really. Now of course, this needs to be rethought in the light of climate change, but it wasn't a stupid idea at the time.

Sigh. What Norman Mailer said.

Someone should make a movie where Cuban snipers, Anti-Castro snipers, CIA snipers, KGB snipers, Mob snipers, Oswald and whatever conspiracy is hip today are all in Dealey Plaza shooting at each other and JFK gets hit by ricochets.

RFK Jr’s daddy literally put Oswald’s first assasination target into a mental asylum: https://engelsbergideas.com/reviews/edwin-walker-deep-state-conspirator/

Bet you’ve never heard that one.

I'm afraid that Putin's only option left is to escape forward.

And please, don't forget China and the ideology if Tianxia (天下) and the revisionism on the 100 year humiliation (百年国耻).
