As member of the Love of Man, of our Peoples, In nation-states, producing commons suitable to our needs, we are not enemies but allies in a division of labor producing the transcendence of man. If there is a better religion than that I do not know what it is. But it is the one I am proposing. A religion of the love and transcendence of man into gods, not into the subjects of priests and politicians, investors and industrialists.—

    (FB 1543254265 Timestamp) THE IDOL OF JESUS VS THE LOVE OF OUR PEOPLE I would say that there are many heroes of history to imitate, and that given that christianity was designed as a war against western civilization – one that we have thankfully twisted to our own use over the centuries – there are rules we can take from christianity and those ideas that we can and should leave behind. I would suggest we love our people. That the church philosophers did a fairly good job of producing Christian Love in us. And it is christian love that is what makes us christians. And that supernatural crutches are very bad for us. There are far too many christians who escape the real burden of christian love through the IDOL of jesus. And therefore are not christians, but charlatans claiming virtues that they do not possess.

I spend my time on Education, Literature, History, Economics, Law, Science, Logics, and Mathematics. (not worth my time)

    (FB 1543194539 Timestamp) SORRY GUYS, DOIN’ MY JOB —“…Stop talking about fucking religion all the time and get back to strategizing against the neoliberal world order and promoting anti-poz behavior.”—Dylan Newman Sorry man. I’m working on the constitution and it’s statements on religion so I had to test some ideas. I should be done and will move on again shortly. I got stuck on the debt-creation concept a few weeks ago and only felt I got my arms around it in the past week. Working through that problem meant trying a lot of arguments from a lot of angles. And this forum is where I run experiments, and people try to refute them, and I learn from that ‘market’ activity. Doing my job. It’s part of the job. That said, I am profoundly proud of working through the problem of religion. It is the hard problem of social science. And worse, like Truth Telling, it is EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE to produce a good religion and extremely cheap to produce a bad one. Law and Markets are trivial achievements by comparison. Cheers.

The State wants religion.”—Anne Summers

Those who Labor (Family) – Trade: Consumption/Deprivation. Labor divided into the hierarchy we call the economy: Investment, Finance, Banking, Organizing, Managing, Laboring, Trading, Distributing. (Libertarian) The Academy evolved into the Academy, Media, State (clerical), Bureaucracy. (Feminine) The Army Evolved into the Political and Judiciary, intelligence, military, and the military industrial complex. (Masculine) Such that we still possess all three classes but that most of us participate in more than one. This is why class hierarchies are conflated: one can participate in a role in each, and shift our allegiance to whatever elite as is in our advantage. We are not anchored except by our social, sexual, economic, political, and military value to one group or another.

    (FB 1543192600 Timestamp) ON UKRAINE AND MARTIAL LAW (From a journalist friend in ukraine. Edited for anonymity and clarity.) —“Hi, … I can’t get a feeling for the reasons behind the martial law request from the Rada. I can see both good and bad reasons to ask. Can you help me?”— Hello Curt ! I think, this decision was logical. The goal of the Russian Federation is to continue the war; to inflict economic losses on Ukraine; to destabilize the state in such a way as to avoid a further wave of sanctions. Without Ukraine’s response, the enemy will feel they can act with impunity – besides, it is a demonstration of Russian aggression in the face of the whole world. This policy will facilitate the provision of earlier sanctions inside the country, and such a situation can play a political role for the authorities in Ukraine. –“And, by any chance, are the oligarchs a target of this policy?”– It’s possible since they monopolize the television. But we must wait and see. It is an interesting time to be a journalist. —“Thanks!”—

It is not a matter of abandoning christianity, but further reforming it so that it is a european religion of transcendence, not a middle eastern, or third world cult of poverty, ignorance, and servitude.— (worth repeating)

    (FB 1543185228 Timestamp) THE HAPPY CHRISTIAN TROPE IS TRUE Mindfulness breeds happiness and christianity produces one of the optimum forms of mindfulness – at the cost of being vulnerable to hostile cultures. The general argument that christians place more investment in the family and atheists more in the self is impossible to refute. This may also be affected by the sortition of post 1960’s delayed marriage, and the pairing off of people who both have education and career and hyper consume rather than a man who produces and a woman who reproduces. The fact that christians are happier, breed faster, and are less political, is simply consistent over time. The family is the optimum unit of production of generations and the state is terrible at it, favoring instead the individual over the family producing the hyperconsumption and hollowing out of the middle of the population that must both produce and reproduce, where the underclass only reproduces and the upper classes only produce thereby destroying not only the familiy, and the genome, but the civilization itself.
