Western man always used markets. We had markets for leadership under trifunctionalism, and under trifunctionalism, western man had two declared priesthoods: Juridical and Spiritual, and one undeclared: Science – which was metallurgy. When you hear our folktales of ‘spells’ it’s derived from metal smelting. Because our ancestors combined Horse, wheel, and bronze to conquer the known world. Philosophy was our ‘synthesis’ of the trifunctional, just as monotheism was the synthesis of the monopoly theology of the middle east. So, Yes, philosophy was and to some degree remains is the natural ‘theology’ of western man and heathen(nature, spirits, ancestors) and pagan(heroes, gods). Our philosophy was corrupted by the addition of monotheistic theology, resulting in the strange synthesis by Augustine. And it is this synthesis that failed repeatedly in the semitic dark ages, was replaced by literacy in the early modern period, with pure faith surviving in orthodox and american protestant forms, and catholicism and catholic dogma lost. So the question is whether we are returning to Law, Science, Philosophy and Faith, having finally left the failure of theology behind. And whether we will restore our ancestral religions of heathens and religion of the hearth (folktales, fairy tales, myths, legends), paganism (historical figures, aryanism), and maintain Christianity is yet to be discovered.
