  • Did they just compare Stalin to Castro?

  • wow the first "cult" i bet he had some bitches around doing stuff for him

  • "One with dozens of slaves and one with none?" It's ironic how he says this in the context of equality.

  • The narrator needs to work on pronunciation - Pie-Thagoras... Crow-Ton... Shferical (Spherical), etc... ikes... Pith'agoras, Crot'on (softness to the t) etc... sheesh...

  • when i first watched this i didnt really know what pytahgorean theorem was but now I do, I think. a squared etc. yah i know that.

    i still feel like i dont quite understand the significane of it though and its consequences and ideas.

  • @mongoose100989

    I actually used the theorem last time I had to load a long IKEA box into my car... :)

    It is also used to extract linear relationships for cross-sectional data. Or to apply color filters on images using photoshop. Or to make the chipsets inside your computer work...

  • John Locke trumps all these greek toga wearin futt buckers!!!!

  • The new syncretic form of Buddhism expanded fully into Eastern Asia soon after these events. The Kushan monk Lokaksema visited the Han Chinese court at Loyang in 178 CE, and worked there for ten years to make the first known translations of Mahayana texts into Chinese. The new faith later spread into Korea and Japan, and was itself at the origin of Zen

  • he didn't eat beans

  • notice how NONE of pythagoras writing survived. what kind of bullshit is that. yet, people believe that.

  • @semicloud A lot of ancient writings are destroyed, but we see their excerpts repeated in multiple places. Original works can also be faked.

  • only one thing, they didnt believe the earth was flat.

    Pythagoras, Aristarchos, Aristotel, said it was spherical. something Copernicus later took credit for.

    Aristotel also talked aobut atoms, neutrons and protons.

    noone knows how he did it, "lucky guess" is the logical answer =P

  • The Greeks in the Orphic times had conceived the heliocentric idea, and it was from them that it was later borrowed by Pythagoreans and Aristarchus.Indeed, they were aware of the sphericity and the rotation of the earth, because, it is proved, that the term polos which one meets in the lines:

  • Furthermore, the fact that the Orphics were teaching the equal time duration of the rotation of the earth and the celestial sphere is mentioned explicitly in the extract diathekai,(testament) of Aristobulus, saved by Eusebius (Evangelika, § 13,12) where Orpheus says to Musaeus:

  • because he knew the course of the stars and the movement of the (celestial) sphere round the earth, as this (the earth), which is round, rotates in equal time round its own axis.

  • ....Σκηπτουχε κλεινιο πολου

    περι την κοσμος πολυδαιδαλος αστρων ειλιται...ρευμασι δεινοις η κατεχεις κοσμοιο μεσον θρονον ουνεκεν αυτη γαιαν εχεις....

  • @Seirios86

    You are right. Copernicus cited Aristarchos of Samos in his first manuscript. But he later on erased this citation...

  • The communist who slaughtered more so have to do with those who lead.

    "Wiki is run by militant zionists!"

    Joke?

  • Same info is in Wikipedia.
