The state exists as a corporation and money functions as its shares, and there is no reason it cannot be run as such, with shareholders (citizens) receiving dividends by eliminating consumer interest, issuing each a debit card, and distributing liquidity to consumers directly.
@curtdoolittle It seems like it would matter to people who won’t be getting 1k because they are already on other benefits. They would be out and the rest of us up. Btw, do you have a better solution for incomes lost to automation?
i say that there is only one metaphysics but many fictions. And therefore the use of fictions is not in fact metaphysical.
And as such people who claim otherwise are engaged in fraud.
As far as i know the physical, cognitive, and linguistic sciences explain every concept metaphysicians claim in their purview.
As far as time an causality these are subjects sophomorically conflated but causality exists, but like all else reduced to speech can never be complete, only necessary sufficient and contingent.
The same for time : which time are we talking about? What makes the change in state possible, the rate of change vary, and our memory of passage vary, and our perception of the rate of change vary? all of these answers we know. zeno was a bit of a sophist.
My current understanding is that there exists nothing that cannot be explained scientifically. and thats certainly going to hold.
A scientific explanation is not the same as the experience we describe with that science – this is true. If we want a separate aesthetic language for the experience that is commensurable with the scientific then that is fine. if we want to discuss the different fictions that different groups operate under thats still one metaphysics and many fiction that allow people to conceive of that beyond their direct perception then that is a vehicle for hypothesizing by analogy.
I am pretty certain i can produce a proof of construction that is so parsimonious it will survive all criticism. there is nothing left that i know of other than the relationship between personality traits and reward systems and i think others know this. But one cannot work on artificial intelligence
My reductionist approach requires operational language under the argument that if you cannot do so you cannot claim that you know of what you speak, and that therefore cannot make a truth claim, because you cannot claim to testify what you cannot operationally describe. and even then you may not and likely may not infer anything from you explanation.
There is only one most parsimonious paradigm. that paradigm cannot be expressed as other than analogy to operational experience without the introduction of fiction. the narrative requires categories to limit sequential prose to that which is possible for human minds. all such paradigms worldwide are converging on the scientific (scientific naturalism small number of consisten universal rules).
I mean. until you find a set of case that are not open to natural explanation anything anyone says about metaphysics is just nonsense.
AFAIK philosophy is currently relegated to choice of preference or good an the rest is science. And i cant find an exception to that rule.

Restore christian militancy or leave christianity behind.David PrestonThe idea that Christianity was a Jewish plot to bring down the white man is one of the most malicious and pitiful slurs employed by anti-semites. True, Christianity was founded by a Jew but Jesus was rejected by nearly all of his fellow Jews. The rabbis furiously denounced the new religion. The triumph of Christianity within the Roman Empire was a catastrophe for the Jews. In the space of a couple of generations they went from being a relatively privileged minority to being despised and persecuted outcasts. Many of the early Church Fathers, notably John Chrysostom, were ferocious Jew-haters. Some Jewish conspiracy that was!Mar 7, 2019, 2:02 PMJohn EdwardI don’t care about a couple desert tribes and their spat. That’s their business, not the business of Whites.Mar 7, 2019, 2:26 PMJim JimmboYou’re correct, Christianity will reform, or it will die along with all of the West.
I spent 2 years in Eastern Europe as a missionary and since I’ve been back I’ve been sorely disappointed by many of my religious colleagues.
Abortion will come up on social media, and their inclination to be nice to people and not be offensive is so strong they can barely take an actual stand against something as morally clear as ‘killing a baby at 9 months ready to be born is bad’ I mean how much worse can it get? What will be required for these people to take a stand? It depresses me.
We have demons to the left, and our side has been domesticated like cattle.
You’re right about Christianity Curt, but wrong about the reality of God. (I’m aware you don’t do faith and more or less think it’s hocus pocus)

I’ve spoken with plenty of Christians, Prots, Catholics, and Orthodox alike. Most of them are tribalistic- but for Christianity first and foremost, and for Europeans second. Fervently pro-white Christians mostly only exist on the internet, and most of what they do is counter signal other Europeans who point out how cucked their institutions are today and jerk off about the glory days…
And argue among themselves about what those glory days were. Meanwhile, the actual mainline Christians are totally fine with the status quo. Hispanics and Africans love Christianity. Their conversion rates have never been greater, meanwhile, the “White Christian” of old is quickly diminishing, with a few exceptions depending on nation.
The choice is presented to Christians; your foreign god, or your native people. And more often than not, they pick their foreign God who had to be IMPOSED on Europeans through state conversions and murdering those who rebelled.
I wonder if Islam will tread the same path? I wonder if in 2000 years some dipshit European with a thin beard and a tablecloth for a hat will spew the same tired bullshit as the Christians do today?
“Islam has been here for two thousand years! Look at all these based Mosques that have been here for hundreds of years! Islam took over, so therefore, Islam is good!

The Jewish Massiah cult was rejected by it own people…they were certainly bitter but history shows that they didn’t magically appear in Europe…they were let in by Charlemagne and the new church of Rome.
We are not saying it’s anti-white. Christianity can be any race and European Christianity was by far the best at what it produced….but the roots of the tree, despite the different fruits it bears. are not us. It is a religion of other people not us.
Christianity proves every time that race means nothing to it… as of recently we could see over and over again that South American mestizo Christianity and even apologist Christians who are finding some common ground with Islam and its traditionalism have decided that it would be better to go with these non-white elements in order to preserve itself then to negotiate its true sense of what it is to be European.
It’s not a slur, it’s the truth….Mar 8, 2019, 11:01 AMCurt DoolittleDavid Preston chiristianity was voluntary for the greco-anatolians-syrians, but it was involuntary for europeans (germania).
The easter roman empire was not roman but greek. The emperors were not germanic european but old european.

If I understand it right from what I have read, the atonement itself had to do with race to a large degree.Mar 8, 2019, 3:34 PMJim JimmboThorvlad Wotenson I’m not actually well versed in early LDS history, but from what I have read I wouldn’t doubt it. Apparently one of the Apostles in the 50’s would give all of the high status people he would meet a copy of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
“It will be borne in mind that once on a time, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and on a careful reading of that transaction, it will be discovered that no less a person than Jesus Christ was married on that occasion. If he was never married, his intimacy with Mary and Martha, and the other Mary also whom Jesus loved, must have been highly unbecoming and improper to say the best of it. I will venture to say that if Jesus Christ were now to pass through the most pious countries in Christendom with a train of women, such as used to follow him, fondling about him, combing his hair, anointing him with precious ointment, washing his feet with tears, and wiping them with the hair of their heads and unmarried, or even married, he would be mobbed, tarred, and feathered, and rode, not on an ass, but on a rail. What did the old Prophet mean when he said (speaking of Christ), “He shall see his seed, prolong his days, &c.” Did Jesus consider it necessary to fulfil every righteous command or requirement of his Father? He most certainly did. This be witnessed by submitting to baptism under the hands of John. “Thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness,” said he. Was it God’s commandment to man, in the beginning, to multiply and replenish the earth? None can deny this, neither that it was a righteous command; for upon an obedience to this, depended the perpetuity of our race. Did Christ come to destroy the law or the Prophets, or to fulfil them? He came to fulfil. Did he multiply, and did he see his seed? Did he honour his Father’s law by complying with it, or did he not? Others may do as they like, but I will not charge our Saviour with neglect or transgression in this or any other duty. At this doctrine the long-faced hypocrite and the sanctimonious bigot will probably cry, blasphemy! Horrid perversion of God’s word! Wicked wretch! He is not fit to live! &c, &c. But the wise and reflecting will consider, read, and pray. If God be not our Father, grandfather, or great grandfather, or some kind of a father in reality, in deed and in truth, why are we taught to say, “Our Father who art in heaven?” How much soever of holy horror this doctrine may excite in persons not impregnated with the blood of Christ, and whose minds are consequently dark and benighted, it may excite still more when they are told that if none of the natural blood of Christ flows in their veins, they are not the chosen or elect of God. Object not, therefore too strongly against the marriage of Christ, but remember that in the last days, secret and hidden things must come to light, and that your life also (which is the blood) is hid with Christ in God”

Evola portrays Christians as degenerate weaklings yet neglects to explain how they triumphed so decisively, routing their pagan opponents. As for the line about Christianity being against force, that is hilarious. Christians historically speaking have never been reluctant to use force once they have the power to do so. As for the line about Christianity being against aristocracy, the aristocracies of Europe coped just fine with Christianity for many centuries.Mar 10, 2019, 8:35 AMDavid PrestonThe fact that Christianity triumphed so decisively against all of these pagan cultures rather speaks for itself.Mar 10, 2019, 8:38 AMGreg WoodburyDavid Preston that’s like saying “anything that happened is good because it happened”Mar 10, 2019, 8:41 AMАнтон КормьеDavid Preston, Christianity was the socialism of the ancient world. At first it was the plebs of Rome that adopted the religion.
As it grew in popularity, the socialist revolution nearly overwhelmed the Roman Caesars. It was Constantine who adopted the religion in order to ride the revolution into power, and once he did, he paganized and de-socialized the Christianity.
The paganized and de-socialized Christianity, controlled by the culturally pagan Caesars, illegalized paganism and waged war on Rome’s pagan enemies.
True Christianity is Jesus’ pacifism of “love your enemies” and “turn the other cheek”. True Christianity is “there is neither Jew or Greek, slave or free”. True Christianity is the godfather of modern socialism.
Your Christianity is the false Christianity of the pagan Caesars. Your Christianity is one of proud warriors who kept their pagan holidays and pagan mindset.
Evola knows this and writes at length of his admiration of Roman Catholicism because it is so pagan and hierarchical and war-loving. His only dislike of the Catholic Church is that it is partly Christian.Mar 10, 2019, 9:00 AMEric GroseCongratulations on your upcoming marriage, Jon.Mar 10, 2019, 9:33 AMJon ZotzThank you.

Further, was this triumph a consequence of the exercise of Christian ethics?Mar 11, 2019, 9:32 AMIvar Diederik”Evola portrays Christians as degenerate weaklings yet neglects to explain how they triumphed so decisively, routing their pagan opponents.”
Superior technology and the might of the Roman Empire, all created by the pagan Romans and their pagan ancestors. The quote is about the Christian exhaltation of various weaknesses (poverty, meekness etc.), not about them being militarily weak themselves.
“the aristocracies of Europe coped just fine with Christianity for many centuries.”
That artistocracy was constantly in turmoil, with the greatest stressor being the struggle between emperor and pope, between the Ghuelfs and the Ghibbelines (the core issue of this book). And it is in that sense that the greatness of the Roman Empire was poisoned and its Aryan spirit lost.
The Nordic-Aryan pagan civilizations know only the priest-king or god-king. A singular ruler who holds both religious and administrative authority. Christianity brought about a separation of emperor and pontifus maximus. And so the Roman Empire ceased being Aryan.
Soon after the rise of Christianity, we lost Spain and Anatolia to Islam, that other Semitic poison, with many more invasions and annexations following (Greece etc.). Then after centuries of war, the aristocracy triggered the French Revolution, resulting in the mess we’re in today. Clearly Christianity didn’t strengthen Europe. It poisoned it.Mar 11, 2019, 11:13 AMLan KenI guess Constantine, Charlemagne, William I, etc. were just pagans LARPing as Christians.Mar 11, 2019, 4:15 PMCurt DoolittleyepMar 11, 2019, 4:30 PMLan KenI was being facetious, of course.

1. The collapse of the Roman Empire in the west was rooted in the crisis of the third century, an event which predated the dominant influence of Christianity in the west. In the East, where Christianity was more influential, The empire survived another millennium as a completely Christianized state.
2. He characterizes the 1400 years between the fall of Rome and his own time as one big decline in civilization, when in fact Europe reached it’s maximum hegemony in this time, and established it’s dominion over most of the Earth. This situation fell apart only AFTER Europe abandoned the Christian monarchies that precipitated their collective success, and replaced them with secular democracies.Mar 13, 2019, 10:57 PMIvar DiederikBut you’re describing economic and military ups and downs here, Aaron Neely, whereas Evola’s criterium is the Aryan spirit. His main concern is the split between secular and religious power, the separation of king and pope.
In his view, there cannot be a true empire when there are two separate, competing authorities in the realm, regardless of how much territory is conquered.Mar 14, 2019, 5:42 AMIvar DiederikFrom the same book, Pagan Imperialism:Mar 14, 2019, 6:21 AMSTAY ON MESSAGE

—“@Curt Doolittle If I have an idea, a theory, yet don’t have the evidence yet–it still might be true. The Higgs Boson comes to mind. It was an idea, a theory, there were no facts yet to prove it, it fit in with the standard model, itself a theory, and solved some problems in quantum mechanics, but it wasn’t until the particle was actually discovered by the LHC that we could call it true. So was it a lie before then? You can’t always exactly know what’s true. Some questions are unsettled. So we make assumptions to try things out. It’s not exactly faith but it’s like it. It requires that we temporarily believe in it to test it, to question it, to try and figure it out. All part of reasoning. Maybe you didn’t mean what you said to this depth, what you wrote seems to make perfect sense on the surface, but through a little questioning, seeking to drill down, to get to the essence and the fundamentals of things, it seemed to me to be a little imprecise. This is not to simply be disputatious, to be contrary, not to be mean or anything, your statement was a fine, stimulating, sentiment, but to honestly question.”— Mark Wright
We do not have faith or temporarily believe in anything. We seek only to discover by testing that which is testable. And we limit ourselves to that limit.
1) such things are testable and falsifiable.
2) such things preserve the parsimony of naturalism,
3) such things are not counter to all of historical evidence, nor commensurate with the long history of ignorance error, fraud, and deceit
4) such things serve as no premise for consequent inference likewise for fraud and deceit,
5) such things are not dependent on verbal pretense or sophism,
6) such things are not claimed true only speculative,
7) such things have no malincentive to lie, or preserve a lie.
8) Conversely what i argued against was the opposite of all those tests.
It is not arrogance but intolerance for the continued use of lies against my people by those in conscious or unconscious league with the ancient enemy of not only my people but all of mankind.

Paper finds evidence that the reproducibility crisis may already have damaged the trust in psychological science and the perception of its value among lay people beyond repair. https://t.co/Mb495FDRm4 https://t.co/xpUEQrZiDt
( Why do we care if an old man pays a hooker for sex? I mean we’re always paying for it anyway? If it’s out of the commons, and it’s voluntary fine. If it’s involuntary because of traffickers, the that’s f-king evil and has to be dealt with ‘harshly’. if it’s involving those lacking maturity, then it has to be dealt with ‘brutally’. The ‘punish the Kraft’s of the world for paying hookers is just nonsensical. )
CRITICISM OF PEOPLE IS NO REFLECTION ON THE ARGUMENTS
The definition of a cult – whether Heroic, religious, occult, magical, or pseudoscientific – is an ‘irrational belief’ in some premise despite the evidence.
The question is whether there are cults of darwin, marx, nietzsche or einstein. Well to some degree yes.
Whether cults of personality exist for these men bears nothing on the truth or falsehood of their claims.
Because no one else would take the short term hit to fix the long term problem. The chinese knew that and were taking advantage of it. They don’t have a democracy so they can play much more strategically – so Trump played them at their game.
Well. I mean, you’re saying I’m a cult leader and the work is religious. I am saying I would like to see if it is possible to produce the equivalent of a cult – but of the law. To some degree the law already is a secular priesthood.
So in essence I am agreeing with you – by analogy.

So what you’re saying is…..
… that you acknowledge that you are: (in your own words)
“searching for a religion of the law”
“produce the equivalent of a cult – but of the law.”
”a secular priesthood.”
Curt Doolittle:
Well, I’ll just say that you forced me to look at the question from your perspective, and from your perspective, I agreed.
What I’d assumed you’d meant was that the law was nonsense, and that I am positioning myself as some sort of leader rather than a teacher of leaders who will be the antithesis of the frankfurt school’s defeat of our people.
(So if you call the frankfurt school a cult then we are talking the same language. if not then we are not.)
But you are right, I am trying to to build a law, and if possible develop a secular occupation of ‘cult like devotion’, wherein the law is sacred (inviolable regardless of self interest.)
I think I am pretty clear that I”m trying to separately find a way to convert our set of religions back to something european rather than semitic, and that’s the ‘cult’ (religion) I am looking to produce.
So if you think I’m being dishonest, I’m just looking for the truth and your general argument helped me do so. And as I have defined it I don’t disagree.
Cult (reform our religion) vs Cult-like (Sacredness of the law). ANd I agree with both. I just don’t CONFLATE THEM in order to lie.
So in this sense yes I want to produce a cult (religion without priests) and cult like occupation (secular priesthood of the law).
(And yes I do understand that you tried to engage in CONFLATION(AMBIGUATION) and that I (as usual) engaged in DEFLATION(DISAMBIGUATION).)
In other words, you were lying. But within that lie was enough truth that I agree with the truth content.
