  • Sorry, but medieval clothes are far more comfortable than modern. Modern clothin

    Sorry, but medieval clothes are far more comfortable than modern. Modern clothing evolved so that we could show we could afford tailored clothes, and from tailored clothes to mass produced ill fitting imitations of tailored clothes. I mean, if I could get away with a tunic and blousy trousers, or leather pants, or a blousy shirt and kilt, and a cape for the harsh weather I would prefer it. Why? *because you can MOVE* in those clothes.

But the lies of the abrahamic religions are horrificly destructive compared to the Trials of Achilles, hero, ancestor, and nature worship, or the continuous self authoring of virtues in stoicism and buddhism – and our original religions of nature, ancestor worship (thankfulness) and Stoicism (mindfulness) were far superior at making mentally healthy people who are able to adapt to constantly changing conditions – and possessed of independent minds: something the authoritarian semitic religions could not tolerate, and actively suppressed.

So, we have a rather odd misconception of ‘religion’ as something other than training the emotions such that we intuit values and relations that are coherent with our group evolutionary strategy (embedded in our mythos), which we rarely if ever understand – those rules of evolutionary strategy are obscured at the metaphysical level. This invisibility makes them sturdier because they are less vulnerable to argument and criticism and therefore more likely to persist due to simply imitation of myths and rituals that produces that strategy by externality rather than by direct apprehension. JUST ANOTHER FORM OF EDUCATION There is nothing special about religion.

Humans are very simple creatures. It’s the lies we tell ourselves that confuse us, and keep us mere animals, responding by intuition and automatic reaction, rather than possessed of agency and welding reason, calculation, and computation, such that we evolve into the gods we imagine.

    EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT RELIGION IN 750 WORDS

    (important piece)(synthesis)

    Religion consist of a category of education for the purpose of training the intuition (emotions), such that we are less dependent upon reason, calculation, and computation.

    So just as we have:

    |ANALOGIES| children’s stories, fairy tales, myths, legends > young adult stories > stories > novels > biographies > histories > the sciences and law > mathematics

    and we have:

    |ETHICS| Imitation of Parents > Hero Ethics > Virtue Ethics > Rule Ethics > Outcome Ethics

    we also have:

    |EDUCATION| Physical Training > Emotional training > Calculation training > Knowledge training > Professional Skills Training

    And so we have developed these institutions to provide training:

    |INSTITUTIONS| Play/Sports/Work(physical) > Church (emotion) > Primary School > Secondary School > College > University

    WHAT WE LEARN FROM RELIGION

    What we learn from religion can be taught by many methods, and that abrahamic religions are one of the worst possible methods because they have a record of manufacturing ignorance. Despite being th emost literate people in europe the jews contributed nothing to mankind for two thousand years until converted to Aristotelianism (Testimonial Truth).

    Nearly all of the income funding the remains of the empire was coming from Old Europe (balkans). The great civilizations of the ancient world had been fully exhausted and rendered fully dysgenic.

  • Why France Matters?

    October 14th, 2018 8:42 AM WHY FRANCE MATTERS? (Smart Selfishness) [A]n insignificant power unworthy of security council participation and constantly hostile to western interests. But, within europe: (a) she can grow her own food, and a diversity of it. she concentrated population in urban areas to preserve her food capacity. (b) investment in nuclear power makes her relatively energy independent (c) Nuclear weapons makes her relatively invulnerable. (d) Preservation of central african colonial presence means she maintains a small but trained military. (e) Germany carries the entire risk of the european effort (not france) by using the Mark as the Euro, and having germany dependent upon (american-defended) global trade. (f) France is responsible for the majority of leftist thought leadership, because she (like the russians) believes her revolution (as the russians their fight against germany) is the founding mythos (rather than the french nation (people) are the founding mythos. And france was and remains the most feminine country in europe in use of language, grammar, argument, political order, social order, and international negotiation technique. (g) France is the gateway for the Islamization and Semitization of europe, because she is dependent upon african and islamic wealth to preserve her economy. When the crisis comes France can defeat germany for control of european course. This means that eastern europe and russia will be the strong powers in europe after the next ‘great economic and political conflict that will occur due to demographics within the next twenty years.
