  • The Gods of The European Peoples Ask Us to Join Them.

    Feb 11, 2020, 12:58 PM (Pissing me off again.) Religion is the means by which we educate the intution in the group’s social strategy, through storytelling, and ritual, in groups, where we are most open to trust and subject to suspension of disbelief. This technique works just as do feasting, singing, dancing, games, sports, marches,…

  • Free Will and Determinism (deterministic Universe)

    Feb 11, 2020, 2:26 PM —“Could you say then that free will is a sort of emergent property of determinism?”—Andy Lunn Maybe I don’t understand that question enough. We have will. That’s a fact. We evolved for graceful failure in exercise of our will – so that is what we interpret as somtimes lacking free…

  • What Do Pagan(ancestor) and Heathen (nature) Religions Ask of Us?

    Feb 11, 2020, 2:51 PM The only thing heathen (nature) and pagan(archetype) religions ask of us is to acknowledge debts of our inheritance so that we pass that inheritance ‘unspent’ on to others. The rest is an excuse to find relaxation, comfort, entertainment and and joy with others in some activity other than running, hunting,…

  • Categories of Religion

  • The Right to Self Determination

    Feb 11, 2020, 5:34 PM We either have the right to self determination – or we have the right to extermination. So choose. (I’m happy either way.) Genomes, genetic distributions, institutions, culture, traditions, norms, manners, ethics, morals, laws, history, myth, legend, monuments, territory, are all assets. Some assets are valuable. Some are not. Some are…

  • Socrates on Declining Population

    Feb 11, 2020, 9:51 PM “It seems strange enough to me that a herdsman who lets his cattle decrease and go to the bad should not admit that he is a poor cowherd; but stranger still that a statesman when he causes the citizens to decrease and go to the bad, should feel no shame…

  • Voting

    Feb 12, 2020, 9:50 AM —“Universal suffrage was a mistake…and practically everyone knew it would have a great cost, but did it anyway because it’s “right”…the cost was exactly what they predicted it would be: the quality of civilization itself.”—Mike Harvey From Alexander Hamilton: —“It is also, undeniably, certain, that no Englishman, who can be…

    Feb 24, 2020, 10:45 AM —“The transition in Hesiod’s theogony from primordial forces of nature (Titans) through the Titanomachy where the immortals gain mastery over these forces is the same sequence found in the Scandinavian transition from the older Vanir nature gods to the Aesir.”—Scott De Warren OUR DESTINY IS GOD HOOD

  • The Full Circle of Currency

    Feb 24, 2020, 10:49 AM by Bill Joslin – From what i understand currency pertained to debt tracking before it was used for trade.

  • Ethnocentrism, Sovereignty: Rule of Law – Its Enough.

    Feb 24, 2020, 10:55 AM The Via- Positiva Small, homogenous, low power distance, polities under rule of law, and their naturally limited capacity for fiat currency inflation demonstrate the optimum mixed economies for both trade and redistribution. The optimum organization of such a polity is by Sovereignty, Rule of law of Reciprocity, an independent cult…

  • Getting to Your Personal Epiphany

    Feb 24, 2020, 11:21 AM —“I feel you are missing the archetypal experience description. I get that that could be included in testimonial but feel empirical science/lawful testimony and mystical testimony are two different functions.”—Bill Smith Try again. I can sense something there and I probably know how to answer it but I’m not sure.…

  • It’s Not Free Markets Its Rule of Law

    Feb 24, 2020, 11:23 AM Free market capitalism is not what raises people. It’s rule of law that limits irreciprocity and forces people into LIMITED MARKETS, not ‘free’ markets. Those markets are limited to the prohibition on externalities. Free market capitalism was invented by the abrahamists to circumvent those limits and to profit from false…

  • The Revolution in The Ancient World

    Feb 24, 2020, 11:37 AM The revolution in the ancient world was democritus’ atomism, socratic skepticism (failure), platonic idealism(failure), and the success of aristotelian reason, empiricism, proto-science, stoic and epicurean replacement of conflationary religion, and roman law and administration, creating markets for all peoples – but the semites (the equivalent of ghettos) couldn’t grasp that…

  • Why It Is so Difficult to Be Wrong when Making a P-Argument.

    Feb 24, 2020, 11:47 AM Any evidentiary claim must be either an example (meaning) that is followed by operational construction (falsification), or by non operational correlation, exhaustive evidence, illustrating the limits (falsification). These are the only two search criteria available for scientific(testifiable, due diligence, warrantable) statements. Here is what we do in P: Create a…

  • Weak Minds Need Certainty

    Feb 24, 2020, 12:17 PM Where are aristotle, plato, socrates, zeno, epicurus, roman law, greek mathematics, and the christian destruction of the ancient world in your narrative? The talmud and the bible an koran are not an enlightenment but simply the marxism-socialism- postmodernism-feminism of the ancient world: the coutner-revolution against reason. The revolution in the…

  • re: Jackson Crawford, Tyr vs. Odin as Chief God

    Feb 24, 2020, 4:29 PM In order to suppress controversy you’re overstating your case. You’re representing sources, because under the defensive protection of the scientific method, we don’t hypothesize without evidence. Meanwhile I think Dumezil and the rest of us are interested in the evolution of european natural religion over time. To claim we can’t…

  • We Need a New Order

    Feb 24, 2020, 7:38 PM —“So by the end of this century, as little as 1/5 of the population of the presently-industrialized world could be responsible for perhaps (my number) 85% of productivity, living in physical comfort but shunted into an ever-tighter technical labor market requiring career dedication to stay ahead in (hence out of…

  • Re: “I Never Err”

    Feb 24, 2020, 9:14 PM I don’t’ think you understand what I mean by that statement. I mean that if I write a constructivist proof that I don’t err. The reason is that it’s so fking difficult to err if you write one. The phrasing is to bait the other party into making an argument,…

  • Cultural Differences in Negotiation Given Differences in Time Frame, Risk, Trust and Dominance Hierarchy

    I follow Cheney (specialists) for international negotiation, and then keep up with the research, but nothing has changed since I first started in the80’s other than indian and chinese awareness of american markets and styles.

  • Lessons Learned from This Month’s Crisis

    Mar 26, 2020, 12:57 PM There is nothing brilliant to be learned from the virus other than the fact that the government and bureaucracy failed again, by regulating during a stable market such that they created fragility (as always) during a panic market – thereby eliminating the european advantage (OODA LOOP) of dynamic adaptation to…

  • Money Flow

    Mar 26, 2020, 1:35 PM —“Dear Curt, I’ve watched several of your discussions with John Mark over the past year or so. Your ideas are very interesting.

  • Constitution Status

    Mar 26, 2020, 6:37 PM The most important reformations in the constitution have to do with the law and rights. The rest of it decreases power distance as intended by the framers.
