    REFRAMING RELIGION, REAL, NOT IDEAL OR SUPERNATURAL.

    My opinion (criticism) is that Peterson is framed and can’t exit it.

    1 – Religion provides a portfolio of enumerable services.

    2 – Those services can be redistributed to non-false institutions.

    3 – Those services can be provided by non false institutions.

    4 – The problem of externalizing self analysis can be solved through a variety of methods.

    5 – My preferred (and rome’s preferred) is that the monarchy past and present represent the family (nation), and that piety to a monarchy is superior to all other methods. *assuming* the monarchy and nobility is as limited as I have stated: to veto of last resort, to funding of arts, letters, and charities, (Excellences), and to facilitation of festivals and holidays. In other words, a secular, familial, religion.

  • THE INJECTION OF GOD ‘STEALS” AUTHORITY FROM NATURE by Bill Joslin Some of Peter

    THE INJECTION OF GOD ‘STEALS” AUTHORITY FROM NATURE

    by Bill Joslin

    Some of Peterson’s commentary leaves the door open for some abuses. For instance the assertion that truth and science evolved out of and are nested in religious frames. But truth and science has blown that frame apart and the results are atrocious.

    || Science, objective truth ->nested in -> religious, intuitive truth (Christ)->Darwinian utility -> properties of nature.

    I disagree and see the religous frame obsolete and leaves us open to future failings.

    || Truth -> Darwinian utility -> Nature

    Then injection of God and religion “steals” authority from nature.

    AFRICA vs THE STEPPE vs THE WATERWAYS

    Africa seems to have been one crucible of evolution, and the steppe another, and the peoples of the waters another.

    I haven’t given that comparison much thought, but those three axis probably explain the differences between ‘the peoples along the waters”, the people of the steppe, and the people of africa.

    I mean, those three conditions put very different selection pressures on each group. and the difficulty of travel in africa vs water and steppe explains the diversity.

    If you can follow and hold the waters you will have it easier than the steppe. if you have the steppe you have it easier than you have in africa.

    And the deserts are something to be avoided at all costs.

    Africa would lead to deeper more rapid maturity, the steppe to greater aggression and opportunism, and the waters to domestication. And that is what we see.

    WE AREN’T JUST AGREEING TO DISAGREE.

    by Eli Harman

    I don’t agree with your assumptions. I don’t agree with your reasoning. I don’t agree with your conclusions. I don’t agree with what you think you know. I don’t agree with how you think you know it. I don’t agree that what you say you think is even what you think. I don’t agree that reality is what you think it is. I don’t agree that the facts are what you say they are. I don’t agree that your theories explain the facts. I don’t agree with your values. I don’t agree with your principles. I don’t agree with your preferences. I don’t agree with your ideals. I don’t agree with your aims. I don’t agree with your means. I don’t agree with your aesthetics. I don’t agree with what you think is beautiful. I don’t agree with what you think is inspiring. I don’t agree with what you think is good. I don’t agree with what you think is true. We have no common ground to build upon, and no common ground to build towards. Everything you say is worthless to me, and everything you do is worthless to me, and everything you are is just as worthless to me.

    –“Therefore I do not reason with you, but prosecute.”—Simon Ström

    Am I making it too complicated? If we have Peterson’s approach for via-positiva (Humanities and education) and mine for via-negativa(science and law), then are we done? I mean. Is it that simple? I mean. It’s that simple, isn’t it?

    (Who suggested that this morning? Was it James? or Andy?)

    I mean. it’s really that simple isn’t it?
