Nov 22, 2019, 8:38 AM by Stephen Phillips (this is a masculine christian speaking of the natural law in christian prose) Hello Curt, I understand what you’re driving at here. I’m a Christian, member of a Calvinist church. I am trying to convince people around me of the same things you were mentioning here. The bible conforms to natural law, as a Christian I would say natural law is God’s will. The heirarchy of God, men, women, children, animals and the environment. Men are the head of the house snd collectively we are the head of our nation/ethnicity. The bible speaks quite plainly about most of these things. Some are not as explicit throughout because I believe it was assumed in both the Greek and Hebrew speaking ancient world. Specifically nationalism but the themes and verses supporting that are there and the rejection of multiracialism is quite evident. The problem I have at this point is not Christianity or anything the bible says. I’m including the OT politics here because Jesus quotes the prophets all the time, I’m not a Marcionist and believe the OT and NT shares the same spirit of the same triune God. My problem is effeminate and cowardly white men. Both characteristics are condemned in the bible, men behaving this way go to hell. My thought on this is the ‘meek shall inherit the earth’ combined with Jewish word magic, the phrase meek and mild. When you read the Greek definition of the word meek, it has nothing to do with weakness. Rather it is what you do to a horse, a big beast but under control, being tempered. Not tyrannical, not soft but patient and not slow to use force. It is a good and proper balance which has been lost on modern white men. In any case, I’m working on it in my small way. I believe more people are going to listen as time goes on so I have hope for the future. Take care and God’s blessings to you and yours.

Enlightenment Now! – Voltaire on Abrahamism

CHRISTIANITY
“Our religion is assuredly the most ridiculous, the most absurd and the most bloody religion which has ever infected this world. Your Majesty will do the human race an eternal service by extirpating this infamous superstition, I do not say among the rabble, who are not worthy of being enlightened and who are apt for every yoke; I say among honest people, among men who think, among those who wish to think. … My one regret in dying is that I cannot aid you in this noble enterprise, the finest and most respectable which the human mind can point out.”
(Letter to Frederick II of Prussia, 5 January 1767)ISLAM
“”But that a camel-merchant should stir up insurrection in his village; that in league with some miserable followers he persuades them that he talks with the angel Gabriel; that he boasts of having been carried to heaven, where he received in part this unintelligible book, each page of which makes common sense shudder; that, to pay homage to this book, he delivers his country to iron and flame; that he cuts the throats of fathers and kidnaps daughters; that he gives to the defeated the choice of his religion or death: this is assuredly nothing any man can excuse, at least if he was not born a Turk, or if superstition has not extinguished all natural light in him.”
(Letter to Frederick II of Prussia, December 1740)JUDAISM
“In short, we find in them [the Jews] only an ignorant and barbarous people, who have long united the most sordid avarice with the most detestable superstition and the most invincible hatred for every people by whom they are tolerated and enriched.”

Flawless
Nov 27, 2019, 9:30 AM (At least four people are as good at arguing P. There is at least one person better at P than I am. Look at this. It’s flawless.) by James Krieger Rothbard & Mises extend Mengerian-subjectivism to escape liability (symmetric risk transfer) & consume commons, restricting legal (via negativa) intervention against asymmetric transfer & the production of moral hazard under the guise of Pareto-efficiency. Thus the libertarian corpus reproduces talmudism in economic prose, & this fact is not lost on even the least scrupulous propertarian analyst. That said, praxeology (operationalism: catallactic constructability) is necessary as a means of testing possibility, but is insufficient for the construction & maintenance of a political order i.e. matters of law, contract & liability remain undecidable (discretionary). Therefore, Propertarianism advances warrantied-reciprocity as a necessarily means of producing decidability in political economy (law), thereby subjecting transfers to a test against the following series: … (i) productive … (ii) fully informed … (iii) warrantied … (iv) voluntary … (v) free of externality of the same criteria The Libertarian error stems from a fallacy of composition: conflating subjective-valuation as an input in the determination of prices of goods & capital in consumer markets with a sufficient means of maintaining a cooperative order under a division of labor, perception & reproduction. The latter of which requires careful (objective & decidable) deliberation over the optimal allocation of violence in pursuit of defense & indemnity against imposition of costs. Edit

Globalization Has Held Down Pay for A Large Swath of Workers
Dec 19, 2019, 5:08 PM —“One of the more striking recent developments in economics has been economists’ growing acceptance of the idea that globalization has held down pay for a large swath of workers.” Automation: “Workers whose labor can be replaced by computers, be they in factories or stores, have paid a particularly steep price.”—
