    I learned from this two hour conversation that I can give a three hour lecture (with two long breaks) that would cover the epistemology thoroughly enough.

    Great stuff here. For the hard core guys here is pretty much the complete picture. And Eric did an amazing job of grilling me.

  • Grammars Always Tell the Truth

    You can always make excuses for everything. Hence Astrology, Numerology, Theology, Pilpul and Critique, Rationalism, Formal Logic, Moralizing, Legislative Argument, postmodern (relativism) argument, and all variations thereof. All of these techniques consist of the Fictionalism “Pseudorationalism”. Just as Marxism, Socialism, Frankfurt-ism, Feminism consist of pseudosciences. Just as all Magic, Superstition, Religion, Occult, Mysticism consist of the fictionalism “Supernaturalism”. You can only testify one continuous grammar: consistently, correspondently, operationally, completely, and coherently. That means the only ‘Prophet’ that was not lying was Aristotle.

    Logic can tell us what is false, but it rarely can tell us what is true. Pilpul can never tell us anything except deception is possible.

  • Rationalism vs Falsificationism

    Rationalism = Excuse. Falsificationism = Necessity 1) You know, I specialize in the methods of deception, particularly by moral appeal and hazard: (a) Abrahamism: Pilpul via-positiva (Excuse) vs Critique via-negativa (Ridicule) – vs – (b) Aryanism: Law via-positiva (“I May”) vs Science via-Negativa (Survival from testing) 2) Once you see Pilpul and Critique as techniques you’ll understand we now need a third defense against falsehood: 1) Cognitive Biases, 2) Rhetorical Fallacies, 3) Justificationary Deceits. … 3) Where those justificationary deceits include: appeal to reasonableness, appeal to consideration, appeal to empathy, appeal to optimistic outcomes, with loading, framing, selectivity, suggestion, obscurantism, overloading, propaganda, and The Fictionalisms. 4) What can I warranty ethics (Militia Ethics), vs what can I make excuses for (Ghetto ethics).
