[@ezeeze979]

Danilo, this is excellent, very educative and helpful. Your approach is highly simplified for easy understanding. Kudos.

[@berhanutadele7565]

utopia is not novel it is 90 % of it Ethiopian real history from 12th to 15th century

[@Jce.oyy_]

Really? Please tell more I need to add that to my research

[@kaleidkerkara59]

​@@Jce.oyy_ What is your research on?

[@Fኡላኒ]

Thanks

I always thought of a Utopian Society as something like the Giver, where we all think it's perfect, but the definition of "perfect" actually changed as the world changed, and if we used the same definition from the past, it would not be the perfect we thought it would be. (Does that make any sense? lol) ((I'm 12 by the way.))

[@Kazan9999]

we know that it is perfection is relative as everything in our life. But by Utopia we mean that it is a world with no wars, no suffering, and no hatred. And of course no religion, because that's one of the most serious things that threatens our existence.

[@Takeru9292]

Definition of Perfection: of excellent quality so much that nothing can be added or taken away as it will ruin it.

[@aunmaqsood8227]

@@Kazan9999 Utopia is fundamentally flawed, and can never be achieved. Everything has cause and consequence, hence why an emphasis on it is put in a standard high school history class. Religion doesn't threaten existence, there's no real proof! The era of imperialism and the conquest to spread one's religion has formed our society into what it is today, which in many ways is better than the past. You have to study history closely to derive conclusions and understand different social paradigms so you can shift your own. Very complex but compelling topic

[@user-ms4ex2kq2d]

@@Kazan9999 that is subjective, religion would not be the most dangerous thing in the world just because you decided so

[@amitsharma-fw6cb]

No needed this, best is Nature... Who giving concept, they destroyed planet nature who is mother of all us. Now they want to be god saying, no religion, no war, no hate, no, love, no nothing... Only they and their slaves.

[@apexscape]

notice how most of these visionaries & utopian thinkers were some of the most fatally flawed individuals outside of "Architecture". Architecture / Architect is a function of our life experience & knowledge.

Utopia, the land of harmony.

[@sewagegnterefe4431]

utopia is represented real Ethiopian traditions in the 12th to 15th century and gradually changed by jealous European nobler to hide the true Ethiopian tradition in ancient times. testimonies are written in Ethiopian ancient books.

[@strawmanfallacy8666]

Ethiopia wouldn't be a utopia if class differences still existed

[@PoetryETrain]

I made it to class, sorry I am late lol

Church of England did not exist yet when More wrote Utopia

[@DH-ii3jd]

I turned off when he said that Thomas More was a clergyman in the Church of England…

[@joshua_severo]

the mindset that killed 55million native americans in a span of 100 years. Perfect society will never exist. this ideal is very dangerous.

[@pervcat314]

like before listening

[@the_number_one]

Meraviglioso!!

[@chriszablocki2460]

I call it quimsotopia. That's what it seems like their goal is. It's going to be difficult for me to live a peaceful, celibate life in quimsotpoia.

[@muanthang_]

[@roberto9719]

Thomas More was catholic. He is a saint canonized.

Hi awesome

[@normanmacfarlane6724]

My utopia , your utopia are different , there's the conflict that cancels out the idea of utopianism. Hang on , lets marginalise ( that is eliminate ) those who disagree with power and our utopia will win 😂 A foolish idea 5hat knows nothing of human nature.
