POPPER HAD IT BACKWARDS – WESTERNERS WERE RIGHT ALL ALONG

(is this then, a reformation of Criticial Rationalism? )

Popper had it backwards and was a Platonist himself. The problem is not in the discovery of “the nature of things”, but to eliminate the anthropogenic bias endemic to all human thought whether to our reason, memory or perception.

Telling the truth is easy. It’s not telling a lie, acting as a vector for a lie, or failing to grasp that our intuition lies on behalf of it genes, or errs because of cognitive

limitations during our evolution that is the problem.

Had popper and Russell and others understood that it is not the mind of God that was philosophy’s task, and that scriptural interpretation was the method they were applying by the study of language, and instead, they had sought as did science, to remove error, rather than the verbal chimera of truth, the socialists and feminists and Keynesianism may have been unable to destroy western civilization.

WESTERNERS HAD IT RIGHT ALL ALONG: TRUTH.

And in an attempt to seize power from the state, we adopted justification.

And that was our failing.
