Aphorism: Absolutes vs Preferences
Nov 15, 2016 2:22pm Benefit and Loss are absolutes. Good and Evil are absolutes. Preference is relative. That we use the authoritarian terms good and evil to lie about our preferences is just another form of fraud.

Religion Has No Need Of Lies
There is a difference between a cost of entry into a religion and the content of the falsehoods in the religion. Many cults do not ask us to pay physical costs, but to deny reality as the cost of entry. In fact, is that not the entire premise of the monotheistic religions? The price of entry is faith in falsehood? A cost of non-correspondence with reality? The signal of trustworthiness to others is the likewise denial? The shared lie? There exist amazing cults (stoicism), questionable cults (Buddhism), ignorance creating cults (Christianity and Islam), immorality creating cults (Judaism), and even worse cults that teach even worse lies. There is no need for lies. History, myth, man, and nature are beauty enough and wonder enough without the need for lies.

MEDIA-ACADEMIA IS TO CIVILIZATIONAL CAPITAL, AS CENTRAL BANKS ARE TO INDUSTRIAL
MEDIA-ACADEMIA IS TO CIVILIZATIONAL CAPITAL, AS CENTRAL BANKS ARE TO INDUSTRIAL CAPITAL.
(by Sock ‘Frank Leibowitz’ )
Counterfeit information, derails calculation in all measures of temporality (immediate, medium term, civilizational, evolutionary).
Counterfeit money, which is a special case of information forgery, derails catallatic calculation.
Counterfeit theories derail civilizational calculation.
Media-academia is to civilizational capital, what central banks are to industrial capital.

@curtdoolittle @VonMacht @Salon Pretty much anything I’m carrying I’ve built myself; I’m “spitz”. No master, no mentor, no guru. Full on.
