    michaelangelo’s david exaggerates the hands, feet and head of the character to suit our means of perception. the parthenons steps are exaggerated in the center to suit our means of perception. hyperbole illustrates a property of a trait just as time and population do.

  • The Market Competition Between Meaning and Truth

    October 18th, 2018 10:53 AM THE MARKET COMPETITION BETWEEN MEANING AND TRUTH

    Education: the market competition between: …. POSITIVA: MEANING: Literature, Myth, Parable – The act of Generating constant relations, and The Promise of Reward. …. -vs- …. NEGATIVA: TRUTH: History, Law, Science, Mathematics – Falsify (test) constant relations: The act of Performing Due Diligence against ignorance, error, bias, and deceit and The Warranty (Promise) of Truth (non-falsehood).

  • I Use “Grammars”…

    October 18th, 2018 1:24 PM I USE “GRAMMARS” (EVERYTHING) RATHER THAN LANGUAGE (VOCABULARY) BUT, YES.

    —“In other words, neurological operations still utilize a framework of object interactions which fundamentally constitutes that which qualifies as language. This doesn’t refer to orally spoken language but it can theoretically be described and articulated when we are not ignorant”—George Perceval

    I use the terms ‘grammars‘ rather than language because that’s the correct term, but by analogy, yes.

  • Evolutionary Spectrum: Literary, Empirical, and Scientific Conservative Authors

    October 18th, 2018 10:22 AM EVOLUTIONARY SPECTRUM: LITERARY, EMPIRICAL, AND SCIENTIFIC CONSERVATIVE AUTHORS [P]ropertarianism (law of cooperation) is a proof system (logic of falsification) for all cognitive dimensions, and survives falsification in all cognitively possible dimensions (science). Once you have the proof system (tests of falsification), ‘experiential stories’ and ‘opinions’ can be tested. In other words, it’s one thing to have other author’s options and another to show that they are TRUE. So It’s possible to show that the LITERARY conservatives of the Continental Tradition (secular theology) Nietzsche, Evola, Kuhnelt-Leddhin, Stirner, Kirk , Spengler and the EMPIRICAL conservatives (Social Science) Locke, Hume, Smith, Hamilton, Burke, Spencer, et all, were right. But it required SCIENTIFIC conservativism (Hayek, Doolittle) to explain WHY.

    [T]he ineffable is that which one is simply too ignorant to explain. There is nothing that is not explicable with the knowledge to do so. People use such terms to retain self image and status despite their ignorance.
