I direct christians to Vox, James, and EMJ.
All, I am occasionally asked where I should direct christians, and I say either to Vox or to James. I follow James. I pay no attention to Vox. I sometimes pay attention to EMJ. But Testimonial truth is a judicial discipline and it has no mercy. My work is hard enough for the smartest of us, and requires knowledge of multiple fields – especially law, economics, cognitive science, and the philosophy of mathematics and science. But most of all, it limits us to only what we can testify to when submitted as evidence. And there is every place for natural law and every place for christian love, but no place for faith in courts. Courts resolve differences between people who have many differences. Markets provide opportunities for cooperation despite our differences. And the state must create both court and market so we can cooperate despite our differences – especially differences in gender, class, experience, resources, agency, and age. I do not do theology, philosophy, or ideology, I do law – for engineering the possibility of cooperation between peoples regardless of their differences. A law with which I hope to restore the Church or Churches to an equal house of government, with exclusive dominion over birth, marriage, family, and death, and with which to crush our enemies whether hostile in faith, hostile in pseudoscience, hostile in sophistry, hostile linying; or hostile in denial of evidence left behind by the demonstrated behavior of man. My job is not to build a church. That is for the faithful. That is for you. But apparently, it is necessary to produce a clearing upon which others can build one. Because christianity has utterly failed as a political religion, has failed as a social religion, and is at present devolving into a folk religion – a pure ‘faith’ and not a religion. A Religion requires institutions to hold territory and people. And very shortly in civilizational time, christians will have none. And judaism’s undermining by the pseudosciences of marxism and feminism, and sophisms of postmodernism, and lying and denying political correctness and islam’s destruction of civilizations by rates of invasion, rates of reproduction and success in evangelism, have claimed every civlization that has not eradicated them. As always, deliver faith unto your god as is his due. But unlike god, Caesar (the court) cannot see, test, or trust your faith. And I do the work of Caesar. The work of faith is up to you. Affections.

The Definition of Abrahamism
Nov 5, 2019, 11:00 PM Abrahamism (noun) The use of false promise, baiting into moral hazard, advanced by “Pilpul” consisting of the heaping of undue praise, sophism, supernaturalism, and pseudoscience, and defended by “Critique”, consisting of straw-manning, disapproval, moralizing, shaming, ridicule, rallying, gossiping, and reputation destruction – thereby advancing a falsehood on one hand, and attacking the person rather than argument on the other. FULL In our Glossary of Natural Law “Abrahamism” refers to the argumentative technique of using Pilpul (via-positiva), and Critique (via-negativa) to construct sophisms (the argumentative equivalent of numerology and astrology) via use of loading, framing, suggestion, obscurantism, overloading, the Fictionalisms, appeals to reasonableness, and false promise, to create hazards. All three Abrahamic Religions, Kantian philosophy, Marxist argument, and Postmodern thought all make use of this technique of argument, often stated as “Dialectic” but operationally consisting of Pilpul vs Critique. COMMON TACTICS 1) Restatement of Myth as History 2) Projection of Traditional Wisdom as Authoritarian Law 3) Dependence upon Supernaturalism (“Magic”, “Miracle”) 4) Monopoly (exclusivity) and threat of loss for non compliance. 5) False Promise of Impossible(supernatural, natural) Reward for Compliance. 6) Use of Pilpul and Critique In Defense of the falsehoods. 7) Castes of Priests with status, power, and economic incentives to perpetuate the falsehoods. 8) Secret Knowledge, or Prohibition on Competing Knowledge, or Denial of contradictory knowledge. 9) Oath to a falsehood. Payment of Ritualistic costs to the falsehood. Payment of ‘donations’ (fees) to the priesthood.

It Is a Book that Functions by Suggestion and Undermines Reason
—“The Bible is not what it seems. It is a book of the mind.”—Stephen Stobinski
Yes it is a book that functions by SUGGESTION and undermines reason rather than EXPOSITION that improves reason? Is the bible a book for poisoning the mind with an addiction to self indulgence? Or like aristotle, a book for empowering the mind so that it is free of self indulgence? Or is it as simple as weak feminine-brained and infantile minds must feel, and strong masculine-brained and adult minds may reason? I am increasingly convinced that this is the answer which is why it’s an necessity to provide different paradigms for teaching a distribution of minds incapable of learning by other means.
