MORE Reasons Why You Wouldn't Last 24 Hours in The Dark Ages....

[@nathannewman3968]

What I think is cool is that everyone alive today has ancestors that survived the Medieval madness; either through cunning, strength or sheer resilience. I'd love to tap into that ancestral badassery.

[@jaekn]

Or by not living in Europe.

[@nathannewman3968]

@jaekn Perhaps to a certain degree. But the plague also ravaged Asia and Northern Africa too. My point is that everyone alive today has ancestors who survived some apocalyptic shit at one time or another in the distant past; plague, invasion, war, disease, serfdom or slavery, famine, natural disasters, violent crime, attempted genocide, fatal freak accidents. You get the picture. That's a long line of survivors to hold in awe. Who knows? Maybe it was just generations of insanely effective dumb luck? Regardless, we're here today. And that is pretty incredible given what our ancestors were up against.

[@soggyfroggy22]

@nathannewman3968 You’re so right! I have been watching these videos and I thought, wow just to think all of us that are alive is because of our resilient ancestors.

[@theconqueringram5295]

"Medieval people never worried about being medieval, but modern people worry horrible about being modern." I think the reason why was how chaotic things were. They didn't know what exactly caused disease or natural disasters. Also, the strong belief in God back then probably left many people hopeful that no matter how bad things got, there was always a light at the end of the tunnel. Chaos was beyond human agency, so leave it in the hands of God. In the modern world, a lot of us don't have that assurance.

And it can't be denied that believing in a higher power inspires people to pick themselves up after they've been knocked down. I'm not stupid or naive. I know horrible atrocities have been committed in the name of religion. But I also know religion has championed science, art, justice and charity. I am not a religious person. But I won't condemn or belittle religion because some individuals have perverted and corrupted the institution to suit their own selfish desires.

I think the Middle Ages are a fascinating mixture of knowledge, superstition and resilience. Found in an old English text there is a recipe for a mixture which is actually an antibiotic, and in the book it states that it will "cure all sorts of illnesses". Modern scientists have found that the mixture even kills hospital germs today that resist modern antibiotics. I do think that people in the Middle Ages are very much underestimated today as most of the time we talk about what they did not know or did wrong. We tend to forget about the rest. I wish I could live there for a couple of days to see what it really was like....

I'm almost half-Scandinavian, so my ancestors were actually Vikings. I'm only about 5% English and less French, so I doubt I would have been an English or French person back then. I'd assume you'd pick what you mostly are, so Swedish. For the Black Plague, there's a story about my Amish ancestor's history: that in two villages there were one survivor each. The man went searching for someone living and found the woman in the other village. So they married and combined their surnames to honor both of their villages. I can't remember which ancestors it was, maybe Hochstedler. I doubt the story is true, probably a big exaggeration, but it means I descend from survivors/people immune? from the plague.

[@Cara-39]

There were significantly fewer actual Vikings (pirates/raiders) than any other "profession" in medieval Scandinavia, which means the chances of being a Viking descendent is extremely low. There were many more traders, farmers, fishermen, blacksmiths, tavern keepers...etc than traveling raiders and even those that did migrate outside of Scandinavia, whether raiders or not, mixed with the local communities and had children. The Viking Age was abt 950-1200 yrs ago and while everyone with some Scandinavian blood thinks their ancestors were Vikings, the truth is they're few and far between

[@deborahberger5816]

So all Vikings were Scandinavian, but not all Scandinavians were Vikings, right?

Many people mistake medieval and dark ages as two separate times but they are in reality one in the same period between the Roman era and the Renaissance or "Rebirth" of civilisation itself as during the middle ages (medieval literally translates to "the middle age" 'medi' = middle & 'ev' = age/period). This time was filled with death, suffering, famine, war, pestilence and crime. Whereas the late Roman era and Renaissance were both affluent and enlightened with better living standards and society norms than the medieval period.

Stupid is the will of man when he dictates what others should believe. All that aside, what you chose to believe is a choice you make unto yourself. Let others decide for themselves their own beliefs.

Tolerance to heresies was actually very high - Cathers became notable in 1140s, but the Crusade, initially not even a big one, was started only in 1209 when they started to kill papal legates and missionaries, and when big politics came (attempts of Count of Toulouse to use Catharism to increase his own power against the King of France). Overall, the church was much less standartized and united than we now think before the Council of Trent (1545-1563); many things differed a lot, from uniformity to monastic life - call to make some order in this chaos can be seen in desire of saints like St Dominic and St Francis to finally create some codes of monastic rules. And the Western Schism also shows us that the CHurch even back in 1300s was anything but united and uniform. Add huge political component of each papal elections and bishop appointment, and here's a very complicated mix.

As bad as it is the odds of getting killed by random violence today are probably less than 1% of what they faced. Overall it's really unlikely to get shot to death in America today.
