It's raining. The men in the group are drenched and have been so almost all day. Nobles in their finest attire stand ankle-deep in mud, their expressions a mixture of triumph and apprehension. Before them, a thin, gray-faced king looks at the document. His jaw clenches."You would strip me of my God-given rights?" the king yells, his voice thick with contempt."We would remind Your Majesty of your duties to your subjects," replied one of the barons, his voice firm despite the gravity of the moment. "The crown does not place you above the law but binds you to uphold it."King John's eyes narrow. These men who would dare put limitations on him had brought not just their demands, but their armies. They had seized London; his London. They were standing in his meadow. This was his land and he was their king. Now, they dared to impose demands on him. He knew he had to sign it. He also knew that it wasn't going to end here. The King's hands trembled as he pressed his royal seal into the soft wax at the bottom of the parchment. The Great Charter was been sealed, though neither the king nor the barons could have possibly imagined what such a seal actually meant.___Join us as we show you the history of the Magna Carta, how it changed English governance, and its influence on all democracies and constitutional federal republics that came after.

We first discuss how to understand human history as natural history, hunter-gatherer societies, and celibates and sterile castes in Neolithic societies. We then delve into the Roman empire, and talk about the role of eunuchs, emperors and their concubines, and the lives of slaves. We also talk about Medieval Europe, the roles of unmarried and celibate people in the Holy Roman Empire, what happened to bastards, Women's rooms in royal estates, the role of the Church, and the crusades. We discuss Magna Carta and the parliament in England, and how unmarried women were treated in England. We then explore the decline in promiscuity, and people writing against celibacy, as well as colonization and migration. Finally, we discuss what all of this tells us about the history of inequality, and the social role of monogamy.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One —   President Trump could be poised to receive a partial victory from the Supreme Court.  Yesterday, the justices heard arguments in Trump administration's attempt to end birthright citizenship. Court insiders say the majority seemed inclined to hand the White House a legal remedy to rein in judges who've halted Trump's policies through nationwide injunctions while perhaps ruling against the administration on the merits of the case.   Two --- Secretary of State Marco Rubio is suggesting a meeting between President Trump and President Putin is the only way to move forward with peace talks.  Rubio's comments come after an anticipated meeting between Russian and Ukrainian officials in Turkey was downgraded when Putin assigned low-level officials to conduct the talks. Rubio says Trump is impatient to end the war and is open to meeting with Putin.     And number three —  An original copy of the Magna Carta has been unearthed.  The New York Times says experts determined the parchment, which has been sitting in a Harvard library for 80 years, turns out to be one of the originals from 13-hundred. It was purchased for 27-dollars in 1946, but it could be worth millions.

Humans have limited understanding of our world and the world beyond; not that we're unintelligent—far from it. The Bible makes it clear that God gave man a sound mind, and from the beginning, people were capable of accomplishing amazing things. The construction of the great pyramids, modern scientific advances, and our knowledge of the cosmos is a testament to how much humans can know and achieve. We're even capable of presenting truth in various ways through art, teaching, and moral agendas, but man's abilities are finite. There is One, though, that claims all truth: the person Jesus Christ. John 1:17 says, “For the law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” In other words, man has been capable over time of building structure and order in society. Around the time of Moses and the 10 Commandments and the laws that govern the Israelites, other cultures were doing somewhat similar things. The Code of Hammurabi, a set of Babylonian laws, helped create a functioning society, and in 1254, the Magna Carta, a set of English laws that was the forerunner of the Declaration of Independence, brought England out of the Dark ages. Yet the Bible is very clear that ultimate truth, the sum of all reality, is found only in Jesus Christ. It is in Him that we unlock the mystery of who we are as individuals. He knows each of us, and invites us into relationship with him. People all over the world follow their own set of rules. It's often said that truth is true if it's true for you, meaning of course that each of us has the right to follow his or her own reasoning. For example, to a person who frees himself from moral constraints, love can mean many things.  In 2 John 1:6 we read, “And this is love, that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you've heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.” Do you see the difference? We can tell ourselves anything; that love, for example, can have many definitions, but God tells us in His Word that true love is being obedient to our Creator. In the end, the world is full of philosophies and opinions of men. Some see truth differently, but only in the Bible do we find true truth. For Jesus Christ is the ultimate truth. Let's pray. Father God, the world can be a dangerous place. Help us to continue relying on you and as our ultimate source of truth so that we can make the best for us and our families. Your Word is our guide, Jesus' name, amen.  Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

In 1215, King John issued the Magna Carta, which established that even the king was subject to equal justice under the law, and in 1644, John Milton published his famous defense of free speech.That tradition is now at grave risk of being destroyed, says UK journalist and professor Matt Goodwin. He says that the arrest by six police officers of a father who complained on WhatsApp about the local school “is merely the latest symbol of a much broader assault on free speech and free expression.” And it comes at a time when the government's Sentencing Council is recommending that judges give preference to non-white criminal defendants, undermining the principle of equal justice under the law.

En 1215, l'Angleterre est en pleine guerre civile. Le roi Jean sans Terre, en conflit avec ses barons rebelles, assiège le château de Rochester, une forteresse stratégique tenue par les forces rebelles fidèles à la Magna Carta. Ce siège restera célèbre non seulement pour son intensité, mais aussi pour l'utilisation d'une arme aussi surprenante qu'efficace : les cochons enflammés.Un siège implacableLe château de Rochester était une place forte réputée imprenable, avec ses épais murs de pierre et sa position défensive sur la Medway, un fleuve du sud de l'Angleterre. Les forces du roi Jean, bien décidées à reprendre la forteresse, tentèrent plusieurs assauts directs, sans succès. Les défenseurs, bien retranchés derrière leurs murs, résistèrent farouchement, obligeant les assiégeants à changer de tactique.Plutôt que d'attaquer frontalement, le roi Jean ordonna à ses troupes de creuser une mine sous la grande tour sud du château. L'idée était de saper les fondations pour provoquer son effondrement. Mais un simple tunnel ne suffisait pas : il fallait un moyen efficace d'y mettre le feu pour fragiliser la structure et faire tomber les défenses.L'arme secrète : la graisse de cochonC'est alors que le roi Jean eut recours à une technique redoutable mais peu orthodoxe. Il fit amener quarante cochons gras, spécialement choisis pour leur forte teneur en graisse inflammable. Une fois le tunnel suffisamment creusé sous la tour, les cochons furent sacrifiés, et leur graisse utilisée pour alimenter un immense brasier.Le feu, amplifié par le confinement du tunnel, fit chauffer les fondations en pierre, affaiblissant leur structure. La chaleur intense fit craquer la maçonnerie, et sous le poids colossal de la tour, les fondations cédèrent. En quelques instants, une partie du château de Rochester s'effondra sous les yeux des assiégés, terrifiés.Une victoire cruelle du roi JeanAvec une brèche ouverte dans les défenses, les forces royales lancèrent l'assaut final. Après plusieurs semaines de siège, les défenseurs furent contraints de se rendre. Certains furent exécutés, d'autres emprisonnés.Cet épisode du siège de Rochester illustre parfaitement l'ingéniosité et la brutalité des guerres médiévales. L'utilisation des cochons comme combustible de destruction témoigne de la créativité militaire de l'époque, où même les animaux pouvaient devenir des armes redoutables. Hébergé par Acast.

The history books tell us that Magna Carta was sealed on 15 June 1215. But, according to Professor David Carpenter, that's not actually the date we should commemorate. He explains to David Musgrove why we ought to remember a different issue of the charter – 800 years ago on 11 February 1225. It was in 1225 that John's son Henry III willingly agreed to a reissue of the charter and, argues David, this was the one with the lasting legacy.
