Jun 14	comment	Is there any documentation that indicates the Aztecs were as violent as they are made out? @MoziburUllah - My view is that the Aztec elites viewed it as a way to maintain authoritarian political control through fear. Ordinary citizens lived in fear of the bloodthirsty gods, believing if they didn't comply they would bring doom upon themselves and their family, if not the nation as a whole.

Jun 14	comment	Is there any documentation that indicates the Aztecs were as violent as they are made out? @RISwampYankee - the key word is "if", as in "what if" (aka counterfactual, aka fictional) history.

Jun 13	comment	Is there any documentation that indicates the Aztecs were as violent as they are made out? @T.E.D. - I just noticed there's a philosophy.stackexchange.com. Might be a good place to ask about universal vs absolute vs relative morals and ethics.

Jun 10	comment	Evolution of United States' world role? I think this is too broad of a question. Perhaps you can narrow it down a bit so that it's not so much of a discussion question.

Jun 8	comment	How could Plato know 9,000 year old stories about Atlantis? It's a writing technique where you create a plausible world to build your story around. Today we have Hogwarts and Forks, Washington, Plato had Atlantis.
