A friend just turned me onto some work about the talmud as polylogical/polyethical meaning keeping “Two Sets Of Books”.

I’ll try to read through it quickly. My concern is again not to criticize successful tactics, but to understand how to defeat this amazing technique that worked in both religious and pseudoscientific eras.

I have it down. But the more I understand, the better I will get at it.

We can demand due diligence of truthfulness by demand for warranty of due diligence:

1) Identity

2) Internal Consistency

3) External Correspondence

4) Existential Possibility

5) Morality

6) Full Accounting

7) Parsimony

These seven tests (so far) make it extremely difficult to lie. Almost impossible.
