  • The reason catholics make good (conservative) philosophers is clearly idealism.

    The reason catholics make good (conservative) philosophers is clearly idealism. I still can’t figure out where we get it from. But there is a very great difference between the protestant ethic (which I possess) and the catholic mind (which I also possess). I suspect it is the sense of wonder that is a byproduct of inquiring into the mind and will of god.

    This is very different from inquiring into the physical world and the political world.

    I also notice that the protestants tend to psychologize and ridicule where catholics think paternally and objectively.

    This is the mystery of religions. The externalities they produce. Or, perhaps, the externalities our ancestors ‘felt’ but could not ‘articulate’ and encouraged by analogy and indirection.

    If you think mathematics isn’t – like science – trial and error, then you never managed to learn long division.

    I can’t really communicate how frustrated this made me in fourth grade. I just assumed I didn’t understand something if it was all trial and error. But I did understand: it’s trial and error.

    Mathematics doesn’t justify anything. It proves something is POSSIBLE.

    All logics criticize, none of them justify or confirm. Survival tells us possibility not truth.

    This is why mathematicians construct proofs, and why praxeologists/operationalists construct proofs of existential possibility.

    Because we are testing whether something is possible.

    But many roads lead to Rome.

    We do not know it is the one we have chosen.

    We only know that it is possible to get to Rome.

    And therefore we have a truth candidate.

    Honor among men has no color.

    It may be true that at present, the probability varies with color.

    But no man is incapable of Honor

    It’s a matter of will, effort, and discipline.

    Strong men stand at the wall of war, invasion, and conversion.

    Strong men stand at the wall of violence, theft and fraud.

    Strong men stand at the wall of manners, ethics, and morality

    Strong men stand at the wall of truth in word and deed.

    Honor does not seek approval.

    Honor knows no opinion.

    Its seeks to create a garden which we call civilization.

    And in that garden we all can prosper.

    For generation, after generation, after generation

    Not just so others may sleep well in their beds.

    But so we and ours can as well.

  • EVOLUTION OF A CONDITION OF LIBERTY: THE STRUGGLE FROM DISCRETIONARY TO NON DISC

    EVOLUTION OF A CONDITION OF LIBERTY: THE STRUGGLE FROM DISCRETIONARY TO NON DISCRETIONARY TO MARKET RULE.

    (important piece) (consolidates concepts)

    Western Man struggles against discretionary (arbitrary) rule, in an effort to construct a condition of non-discretionary rule: Rule of Law.

    Rule of Law is imposed upon men by the organized use of violence to prohibit discretionary rule.

    Natural Law (property) provides Perfect Decidability to Rule of law, eliminating the need for discretionary rule.

    Natural Law prohibits the imposition of costs upon others, by the universal requirement for productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary transfer of that which man has homesteaded or obtained such transfers, when the acts were limited to externalities of the same criteria: productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary transfer.

    Common Law evolves incrementally by the identification of new methods of unproductive, insufficiently informed, unwarrantied, involuntary transfers, causing externalities of the same criteria, and adding those prohibitions to the canon of the law.

    Law of the Commons (Government) evolves:

    – First by concentrating rent seeking in the central authority, and suppressing familial, tribal, and local rent seeking, enabling each individual to act with his property in his best interests.

    – Second, the law of the commons evolves by the organization of production of commons, while removing the inability to defect from (free ride upon) the costs of provisioning those commons.

    – Third the law of the commons evolves to provide insurer of last resort as a service to the commons.

    – Fourth, the centralized rent seeking is eliminated by the conversion of the functions of insurer, and commons-producer, into a market for the selection of commons and tolerance for insurance. (Contractualism).

    Constitutions enumerate the processes by which rule of law, using market government, under natural law, is conducted by ordinary men.

    By use of force to create and fund, then market to persist, the meritocratic order is constructed against the will of the free riders that constitute all but a minority of the population.

    Man was not oppressed – he has been domesticated as surely as our plants and animals. Domesticated by the incremental suppression of parasitism through natural law, reproductive control, and aggressively culling the parasitic.

    (humor from another thread)

    “Why did she ditch you on OK Cupid after agreeing to a date?”

    Multiple Choice Question:

    1) Her husband found out.

    2) Her boyfriend found out.

    3) Her girlfriends disapproved when she showed them your profile

    4) She used fake profile photos and couldn’t bear getting caught.

    5) She got a better offer from a guy with more cash, bigger biceps, or a squarer jaw.

    6) She got a better offer from her BFF: reruns and pizza

    7) she was too shy to say no in the moment, so she avoided conflict by saying yes and then deleting the profile

    8) she finds being completely alone and not involved romantically to be much easier so until she finds the exact traits for procreation she rather read.

    9) She decided you weren’t worth the effort – any effort.

    10) She found out about your criminal record

    11) She’s 15 and that’s why you were even able to get her attention, and she can’t afford the cab fare to the date location.

    12) She’s a prostitute and figured you didn’t understand the real deal

    13) She’s a 330 pound unemployed 54-year-old male that has twenty of these fake profiles going, and keeps score of the suckers on a white board, and will share a photo of it on twitter next month.

    I have no idea why American blacks ( or any other tribe ) must be forced into high trust norms or ” white ” rates of training.

    Same way that I don’t understand why my white son with my family sense of justice and reciprocity should be schooled with Asians and judged by their much mor docile and obedient natures.

    Blacks, Browns, whites and yellows mature at different rates and achieve different levels of maturity.

    So while in the adult market we can expect contractualism. It seems idiotic vanity to think that our laws governments and norms should reflect behavioural demands unsuited for the population.

    That we can all mature into market behaviour says nothing about the best environment to train different groups into those behaviours.

    It really agitated me that we force young boys to learn in the same environment as young girls – especially the decline in physicality.

    But if you are to the left of whites and Asians then why should you be scooled as they are?

    It’s not a matter of intelligence or will, or character. It’s a question of the rate of growth.

    In my generation we were divided into six levels ( I was not always in the top level by the way ). It worked well.

  • My political agenda is to devolve the empire, to constrain any federal governmen

    My political agenda is to devolve the empire, to constrain any federal government to defense, insurer or last resort, and interstate property conflict, and to liberate as many states to experiment in as many ways possible, creating lots of opportunity for ‘people at the top’.

    Let a thousand nations bloom.
