  • Small rural New England town. Knock. Answer. Neighbor. Delivering Palms for Palm

    Small rural New England town.

    Knock. Answer. Neighbor. Delivering Palms for Palm Sunday. Hands me one. I realize that the church is closed. He’s part of the board.

    Me: “I almost forgot. We have good Catholics around here.”

    Him: “I’m not so sure about good, but we do have Catholics.”

    Waves. Turns. Moves on. Door closes.

    I put the palm behind the calendar near the door.

    My mother is gleeful. I want to eye roll but I don’t.

    I have to wait for May Day (Beltane) to celebrate the spring.

    And it requires a bonfire. 😉

    And I have ideas for the kindling.

    Yep: Divination, Astrology, Numerology, Scriptural, Stock market, Noise-Data interpretation.

    THE DEMARCATION BETWEEN HUMAN AND ANIMAL

    What is the point of demarcation where Homo Sapiens is no longer guided by animal impulse and is fully human?

    The answer is ‘When his or her judgements are decidable without appeal to instinct’.

    In other words, when all judgements are calculable.

    Only when all judgements are calculable are we free of animal instinct.

    What do you think P-law provides?

    Universal calculability.

    Universal commensurability

    and universal calculability,

    regardless of grammar or context.

  • GENDER(SEX) COMPATIBILISM Yes, I’m and advocate for COMPATIBILISM. Not equality

    GENDER(SEX) COMPATIBILISM

    Yes, I’m and advocate for COMPATIBILISM. Not equality but compatibility in a division of reproductive, productive, cognitive, and temporal labor.

    Which is why I always make sure I have women around me when I run companies. Because I am like most men, blind to some range of the senses, just as most women are blind to some range of the senses.

    P relies on compatibilism with reciprocity in display word and deed (including that reciprocity we call truthfulness). We pair off on opportunities so to speak in a market competition that calculates the best for all if irreciprocity and falsehood are suppressed.

  • ONE AUTHOR ISN’T ENOUGH. BUT THAT’S WHERE MANY PEOPLE STOP. It’s Nietzche, THEN

    ONE AUTHOR ISN’T ENOUGH. BUT THAT’S WHERE MANY PEOPLE STOP.

    It’s Nietzche, THEN Jung, Frazer, Campbell, Dumezil, Vonnegut, THEN cognitive Science, THEN Haidt, Doolittle.

    Jung is easily misdirected without nietzche’s ‘the birth of tragedy’. campbell midirected without dumezil and vonnegut.

    Both groups without the grammars, reciprocity, and haidt’s moral intuitions.

    And western civ lost without all four generations of religion.

  • Astrology, Numerology, Fortune Telling, Divination, and the Bible all depend on

    Astrology, Numerology, Fortune Telling, Divination, and the Bible all depend on the same process: you can find anything there that you want to.

    There is a value to these tricks however, in that they free you from responsibility for free association. And they bypass cognitive bias and error the same way that a praying to god bypasses our ability to lie to ourselves.

    In other words, you find what you want to, and astrology, numerology, fortune telling, divination, and religious scripture serve to bypass our ability to lie to ourselves and bypasses our reason, so that we rely entirely on intuition. And in some things, intuition defeats reason.
