THE UTILITY OF RELIGIONS FOR MANAGING A SOCIAL ORDER. AND JURIDICALISM AS ‘RELIGON’.

—“Confucianism is a much more useful system for managing social order than either Islam or Christianity”— Michael Philip

True. But the prohibition on parasitism expressed as the right to property-en-toto, expressed as ‘natural law’, the common english law, and an independent judiciary is the most useful system for managing a social order ever invented. The problem is, how do you create the trust necessary for a juridical system to function without a militia intent upon its construction?

This is why Confucianism functioned: it was a means of reconciling the tyrannical nobility by providing a means of resisting them, as well as a means of legitimizing their claim to power if they adopted it.

Christianity is a religion of expansionary cooperation (love). It is an exceptional religion for the development and maintenance of middle classes because trade velocity and trust are reciprocally dependent. Christianity did not seize power in Europe so much as legitimate and delegitimize rulers. If a ruler was delegitimized his lands were open for conquest by others.

Islam is a religion of expansionary violence. It justifies that expansionary violence. It is an exceptional religion for the lower classes who cannot develop trust. It provided legitimacy to conquerors.

Judaism is a religion that justifies non contribution to a physical commons, requires contribution to a normative commons, and encourages and parasitism of the normative and physical commons of others.

So my work, as I understand it, is the completion of the use of the common and natural law as a prohibitionary social order, enforced by a judiciary and a militia. It is effectively a scientific ‘religion’ of law, in which truth, trust, and militial defense of the judiciary, are the necessary costs we bear for its construction.
