There Is a Reason the Left Developed Social Construction.
Nov 30, 2019, 2:01 PM There is a reason the left developed social construction. It’s because the left’s reality is social and verbal, not empirical and analytical. It’s that they are INCAPABLE of empirical analytical, reciprocal, concepts. They just WANT. WHich is what primitive females did to animate primitive males. The difference is we aren’t…
Christians Believe Just as Much Silly Nonsense as Secular Jews.
Nov 30, 2019, 3:23 PM Christians believe just as much silly nonsense as secular Jews. The difference is Christianity’s obviously silly nonsense.

Via Aristotle’s Metaphysical Model

Let’s Give Everyone a Precise Language and For the Discussion of Religion.
LET’S GIVE EVERYONE A PRECISE LANGUAGE AND FOR THE DISCUSSION OF RELIGION. (worth repeating) We have been misled to thinking that ‘religion’ requires superstition. But that idea is a product of the authoritarian dogma created by the Church under Christianity. It’s simply not true. DECONFLATED, RELIGION CONSISTS OF: 1) Narrative: historical, mythical, supernatural 2) Metaphysical…
Yes It Is Easy to Judge Art, Just Like Written or Acted Works
(from twitter ‘dispute’) I can teach anyone to evaluate art. This is the overview of the method from the course presentation. With practice you can judge any work, set of works, movement, civilizational works, and speak of them intelligently and recognize when you must say “i don’t know enough” on one hand, and ‘i like…
We must separate
Dec 2, 2019, 10:02 AM The left (feminine) wants re-wilding (mothers want monopoly control), and the right (masculine) wants continued domestication (markets). Separate, or conquer and rule, or do even worse. Separation is the most peaceful option. We must separate.
No Evolution Is Not Random It’s Just Undirected
Dec 2, 2019, 10:32 AM Evolution is not random. Evolution increases in complexity in order to exploit niches of caloric and therefore reproductive opportunity. In humans, and all domesticated animals, evolution consists of increasing cerebral volume, and slowing rate and depth of sexual development, making possible executive function (self-control) and rational agency. (choice). The east…
The Transition Into Gods
Dec 2, 2019, 12:05 PM by Luke Weinhagen Human development of executive function and rational agency resulted in our having more ability to exert intentional control over our environment than any other organism we have yet encountered (humans evolve to control environments). This control gives us the means to write natural law (figuratively – our…

Explaining to Normies (the “boiling Frogs”)
Dec 4, 2019, 9:41 AM by Chris Moyer When speaking to normies about costs of policies I tell them “We’ve lost entire cities we cannot even walk in while remaining safe” Really gets their noggin’ jogging. We’ve lost entire cities, pay the cost of increased security, and pay to have them housed and fed. What…
Vikings
Interesting ancestry ‘coincidences’. Father’s side is consistent: De Dolietta Avranches Normandy. I know they come over with the conquest, I forgot why Normans end up in Scotland, other than it was poor soil, and unconquerable. So short stint, then down to west midlands (I don’t know why but I do see records of land grants).…
Groves were groves.
Dec 5, 2019, 11:17 AM —“Caesar writes that he had a problem with the Druids. They had the respect of the general populace and did not appear to be easily swung by the normal appeals to a leader’s desire for wealth or to consolidate power. This made them difficult to control. Caesar writes that in…
Feels Good or Seems Good Doesn’t Tell You Anything.
Dec 5, 2019, 12:45 PM Feels good or seems good doesn’t tell you anything. Heroin feels really good. Consciousness gives us access to the entire temporal spectrum from the present moment to the long term, to the condition of our distant future descendants. Choosing that which is good across that spectrum means you’re human. Choosing…
Computer science appears to have made it possible for us to imagine ourselves correctly
Dec 5, 2019, 3:12 PM Computer science appears to have made it possible for us to imagine ourselves correctly: “why doesn’t it understand or “why doesn’t it know” was a common question in the first generation of computer users. Today, every generation knows it’s just a machine and needs explicit instructions on its own terms.…

Hypothalamus
Dec 5, 2019, 9:23 PM HYPOTHALAMUS (Regarding drastic difference in women taking ‘the pill’.) (Hypothesis: the female brain evolved to sustain moods in the care of children, and absent children the female brain does not mature, and in the absence of the reproductive cycle declines. Which is what we see in the data. So without…

Via Negativa in Intelligence: Genetic Load Causes Stupidity
VIA NEGATIVA IN INTELLIGENCE: GENETIC LOAD CAUSES STUPIDITY A somewhat popular post from ’12 that made the rounds. It follows my understanding that the size of the brain largely determines its capacity for intelligence and that the accumulation of defects causes stupidity, rather than, intelligence being a specific modification. This would mirror the data in…
Correcting History: Sacrifice in Europe
Dec 6, 2019, 8:53 AM There is some debate over whether it happened at all. However, presuming that it did: 1) Horses and Dogs were ‘valuable’ and the most common victims of sacrifice. 2) defective peoples (dwarves etc) were often killed and buried but no evidence of sacrifice. Same for most burials, where the victims…
