    —“Speech exists as an action. When we warrant our speech to be truthful, we are providing warrant for an action.
    The west is best (fastest) because we demand we warrant our actions – the rest demand excuses for incompetence.”— Bill Joslin

  • Cooperation is an investment that has non-zero risk

    —“Cooperation is an investment that has non-zero risk. If you want people to cooperate with you rather than fight or avoid you, you must mitigate that risk. If you instead try to shame people for your lack of ability to mitigate their risk, they are left with the only options of fight or flight. However, cooperation amplifies the standard of living of a polity, so people would rather live around those they can cooperate with rather than fight/flight. You can only compel people to flee you for so long until the cost of non-cooperation exceeds the cost of fighting (destroying) you to increase the proximity density of people who cooperate at low risk.”— Steve Pender

  • Christianity Is Not Incompatible with Natural Law

    You know, by and large, christianity is not incompatible with natural law. The whole damned narrative is. But otherwise, the basic principle of direct demonstrated charity, exhaustion of opportunity for forgiveness, and reciprocity is fine. That said …. there is nothing in that list that wasn’t in our slavic, nordic, germanic, italic civilization before christianity. Ya see? BTW: where are our sacred groves of oak trees, our festivals of the seasons. And our worship of our ancestors? Well. They’re right were we left them.
