Boost of @alternative_right At least half of the White Nationalist underground has been compromised.
It’s better to be a traditionalist conservative, and therefore aware of race but also other important issues like culture, than it is to be a race-fanatic alone.

HOW AQUINAS CONVERTED SEMITIC LAW TO EUROPEAN LAW WITHOUT DISPOSING OF THE BIBLE
by Martin Štěpán @WorMartiN
— “So: The reason the church failed, opening the opportunity for the second Demonic, Abrahamic, Semitic war against European people by marxism-pomo-woke-anti-white, is that there was no Augustine or Aquinas in 1850 to unify Jesus’ advice (love) with Gods Laws (Science).” — CurtD
I’m making my way through Summa Theologica, just finished the Treatise on Law and I can see what Aquinas did there.
The Tanakh, the Bible (and the Quran for that matter) contain Semitic authoritarian law, clearly produced by feminine cognition. This is what you must do or else God, a jealous God, the highest status man around, will disapprove and punish you. Don’t you dare question his motives.
Aquinas turns this on its head and explains the purpose of each law, explaining its effects on the population, how it contributes to the preservation and improvement of the population, demonstrating masculine systematizing cognition.
Thus reframing it from authoritarian Semitic law to European natural law, or as close as was possible at the time without rejecting the Bible.

Afarensis to habilis:
OH 24 is in between A. afarensis and habilis OH 24
KMNR-1813 KNM-ER 1813 brain size bigger than afarensis but smaller than habilis. Face looks more like habilis
B Asfaw, T White, O Lovejoy, B Latimer, S Simpson, G Suwa, Australopithecus garhi: a new species of early hominid from Ethiopia Science 284: 622-629, 1999. All individuals are intermediate between A. afarensis and H. habilis.
Jawbone Fossil Fills a Gap in Early Human Evolution
“Dr. Spoor said in an email that he agreed with the hypothesis that the new Ledi-Geraru mandible “derives from Australopithecus afarensis, and at 2.8 million years shows morphology that is ancestral to all early Homo.””
Habilis to ergastor:
Oldovai:Bed I has Habilis at bottom, then fossils with perfect mixture of characteristics of habilis and erectus, and erectus at top. At bottom of Bed II (top of Bed I) have fossils resemble H. erectus but brain case smaller than later H. erectus that lies immediately above them. pg 81
OH 13, 14 was classified by some anthropologists as H. habilis but others as early H. erectus. 650 cc
D2700 from Dmasi has features of both hablis and erectus. Fossil Hominids: Skull D2700
Koobi Fora: Another succession with several habilis up to 2 Mya, then transitionals, and then erectus at 1.5 Mya.

BOU-VP-16/1 is an almost complete adult cranium (shown at right). It is large and robust, with a cranial capacity estimated at 1450 cubic centimetres, larger than most modern humans. The skull is long and high in lateral view, and White et al. (2003) list a number of features in which it is near or beyond the limit of modern humans (the occipital angle, mastoid height, palate breadth). Viewed from above, its length exceeds any from a sample of over 3000 modern humans, but one width measurement is below the modern human average. The brow ridge is not prominent and is within the modern human range. BOU-VP-16/2 consists of portions of another adult cranium which appears to have been even larger than the previous specimen.

Stenheim and Swanscombe, 250 Kya: called H. heidelbergensis but have characteristics of both ergastor (erectus) and neanderthal. Large brows and small cranium ( ~1200cc) but otherwise looks like neanderthal
Petroloma skull (complete): brow ridges and low forehead like ergastor (erectus) but not quite as primitive but not as derived as sapiens or neanderthal. Back of head resembles sapiens. 250 Kya
