    RUSSEL’S TEAPOT AND THE EXISTENCE OF GOD

    One of the great falsehoods of philosophy: proof.

    You cannot prove anything, so the question itself is a deception.

    The questions are unfalsifiable, which is a center position between justifiable and warrantable.

    Justifiabl(excuse) > falsifiable (possible) > demonstrable(empirical) > warrantable (insured)

    Proofs exist in and only in mathematics, for the simple reason that positional relations (positional names that we call numbers) are by definition and necessity constant relations and cannot be otherwise.

    There are very few other constant relations. (time is one, and even that is a question of relative position and velocity). We can create certain set arguments. We can identify certain reductio (trivial) necessities just as we can identify certain prime numbers.

    But the question is fraudulent (a trick) of grammar.

    Since one cannot prove anything, one can merely justify (non-promissory), provide terms of falsification(promissory), demonstrate(tempmoral), or insure (intertemporal)

    As soon as you admit the criteria of …

    – deception and fraud

    – incentive

    – cost

    – warranty

    …. into philosophical argument, we change from philosophy to law, just as when we introduce empiricism into theology, we move into philosophy.

    DEFINE “KNOW”?

    As far as I know (as far as I am aware) it can only mean ‘aware of’. One’s assessment of the truth or falsehood is quite different. The test of that truth or falsehood is something else. The truth or falsehood should we possess perfect knowledge is something else entirely.

    So we can know something.

    We can know something is false.

    We can know something is not false.

    We can know something is difficult to be other than true.

    Knowing of WHAT.

    Most philosophical questions are actually just grammatical sophisms.

    TEAPOTS

    This is a trivial problem in grammar with the terms truth and proof and can be debunked pretty easily.

    a) how can you testify that a teapot orbits the sun?

    This is a very different question than Russell is asking and is the entire reason why philosophy and theology became closely related after because of augustine.

    We demand warranty of goods and services, but we have stopped demanding warranty of information (words).

    So the question is, how can one warranty his statement that a teapot orbits the sun?

    Then why does he say such a thing? In other words, just as in any other crime, what is one’s incentive?

  • “Why did it take so long to produce an east asian super model?”— Answer is obv

    —“Why did it take so long to produce an east asian super model?”—

    Answer is obvious:

    1) Conspicuous consumption is the easiest means of demonstrating signals, and humans determine their self worth and the worth of others by signals just as peacocks do.

    2) Supermodels (models in general) serve the purpose of selling to women by means of self identity) (attainable aspirations)

    3) One must have what we call ‘middle class incomes’ (post-self sufficiency, disposable income) to purchase signal-goods.

    4) Those who look for east asian role models to imitate lacked the economic capacity participate in the market economy.

    5) Asians were lost in the permanent poverty of socialism and communism for most of the 19th and 20th centuries, and could not participate in that market economy.

    6) Western modes of dress are, and for the time being will remain, optimum signal goods on the INTERNATIONAL market.

    7) Enough asian women had to live under western life styles and consumer goods to learn to display the confidence that western women do, and which is so attractive to women who want to increase their signaling.

    In other words, it wasn’t until recently that it was worth pursuing asian models, because asians were too poor to market to.

    The people of Connecticut must finally come to understand that the reason they are 44th in the nation (and CT is a dump) is because the people of CT have always been wrong.

    ALWAYS. Self righteous puritanism led to self righteous socialism led to self righteous postmodernism, and what was the finest parcel of real estate habitable by man outside of the Loire Valley in France, has been reduced to a soviet slum from the border of Fairfield county -which is nothing more than a tax haven for New Yorkers, and New York is just the profit center for the marketing and sale of US Federal Fiat Currency to the financial and banking markets.

    Why did Boston lose the technology market to the Bay Area? Why has every company of every possible size that can physically afford to do so, left connecticut?

    Why does ever person with any economic ability leave connecticut? Why doe entrepreneurs laugh when Connecticut is mentioned?

    Connecticut was the state that most thoroughly implemented the soviet model, and is paying the same price of the soviets.

    Connecticut is a wasteland from springfield through hartford through new haven through bridgeport, and has now lost the southeast to immigrant crime.

    There is a reason we replaced the priesthood with the middle class business person during the enlightenment. There is a reason we replaced the church with science.

    People who try to do good by political means always and everywhere do ill for the simple reason that anything you subsidize increases.

    Western civilization created extraordinary wealthy by innovation, expansion, competition, and conquest. And northeasterners and their ‘cult’ have destroyed that civilization in less than a century of ‘good intentions’.

    The road to hell, and the road to bankruptcy and poverty are paved with good intentions.

    Prosperity is always and everywhere the result of continuous competitive advancement.

    All the great arts and sciences are the work of conquering commercial empires.

    So if you are a new englander, of ‘priestly’ bent, you are doing nothing other than buying self serving virtue signals by spending down the accumulated competitiveness of your ancestors.

    And you have paved your way to hell.

    A very wise man said: “Whenever you are unsure how to vote, consult a well meaning fool, and vote the other direction. People of Connecticut need to move radically in the other direction, or this “soviet worker’s paradise on englishs soil’ will continue to decline as did the soviet union, and every other nation that has attempted the same.

    The future is not star trek. It’s venezuela, brazil, and india.

    We waste almost all the time between 14 and 21 in full time education with demonstratively negative returns, instead of splitting the time between work and part time education.

    That’s the data.

    Change it and we change the generational organization of western civilization.
