Imagine

Imagine if a group of people decided to use the Ancient Greek definition of virtue, the enlightenment definition of liberty, the logic of the scientific method, and the beauty of the Renaissance. Imagine the world we could create.

the logic of the scientific method

HUGE amount of "scientific" research wouldn't exist if we just followed the above. The entire field of evolution: gone. The entire field of psychology: gone.

Would be amazing.

Talk therapy is bullshit sold by snake oil salesman that don't even give you a bottle of hooch. There might be something to the pharmocunts though. Breddy sure lithium would make anyone feel good. Trust your local drug dealer.

Ancient Greek definition of virtue

Fuck off w/ your boy fucking nonsense

Every society has elite's that do fucked up stuff. See: USA, EU, everywhere else.

Doesn't mean they didn't have values that can be aspired to.

The Greek's did have a much more visceral understanding of what it is to be virtuous.

Nah, it wasn't just the elites. Interestingly you see the same values reflected around the afghani/paki border w/ bacha bazi boys. Homosexuality was actually condemned in ancient greek and roman tradition contrary to what hollywood would have you believe. They didn't consider kid banging homosexuality. They were filthy degenerates as far as I'm concerned.

Fatuus molestus ancilla lupa.

Google will translate that bit of latin incorrectly. The feminine version of wolf means "whore". The benefits of a classical education.
