THE FOUNDATIONS OF ALL PHILOSOPHICAL THOUGHT
The function of science and natural law is adaptation.
The function of Theology, Philosophy, Pseudoscience and Sophistry is to provide psychological comfort in relieving the stress of innovation, adaptation, productivity, reciprocity.
Seeking the truth is always superior to seeking the preferential as a subsititute. This is why every other people – every single one – other than european middle and upper classes failed evolution’s test of continuous adaptation and innovation. Non european thought is almost universally dedicated to escapism. Because the value of cooperation is assumed to be infinite.
EPISTEMOLOGY:
- Body: Sense > Model(of existence) > Perception > Auto Association > Auto-Prediction > Valuation > Recursion:
- Langauge facility (wayfinding): Continuous recursive disambiguation:
- Promise: Speech: Existential > Declarative > Ostensive > Imperative > Agree/Not:
- Evidence: Actions: Invariant .> True-False .> Correspondent-not > Success-Fail > Agree/Not
- Recursion: Free Association > Hypothesis > Theory > Surviving Theory
- Because: Relational Possibility > Self Test > Demonstrated Test > Market Test
That’s what exists and how body, language facility, Speech, action and resulting evidence performs.
My argument is that group strategies vary from highly correspondent, productive, innovative, and adaptive to non-correspondent, parasitic, destructive, and devolutionary.
This is what almost every single theologian, philosopher, or scientist fails to include. Because they assume that infinite cooperation and decreasing competition is valuable rather than disastrous.
So given that rapid continuous adaptation is the European tradition, I would argue that tradition is something we shouldn’t leave behind because our tradition is trifuctionalism mediated by truth (law). The most action-oriented tradition in history.
BEAUTY:
As far as I know, beauty in all cases is the availability of resources (fertility), quality (fertility), aesthetics (symmetry in fertility), ease (fertility), awe (new opportunities in fertility). AFAIK There are no exceptions to this. It’s was my first philosophical subject.
Beauty is no different from any other experience, or any other truth. We have experiences, associations based on them, and personal valuations of them for extremely idiosyncratic reasons.
So knowing First Causes (what I do) only provides understanding not prescription.
And so again we come to declarative (is) vs imperative (can, must, should).
And the difference is decidability in matters of conflict (is) vs decidability in matters of agreement (can, must, should).
And again we see via negativa law(science) vs via positiva philosophy(preference), and conflation of both by theology(demand), and simple necessity in war (command)
So: Masculine Command > law > preference < wisdom < Feminine Demand
