Theme: Civilization

Christianity has the best ethical record which is rather easily demonstrated, and Christian behavior worldwide produces superior outcomes wherever it goes by preparing civilizations for middle class majority civ and rule of law. No religion can perfect mankind but so far Greco Roman logic, reason, philosophy and institutions combined with germanized Christianity despite its many failings have outpaced, out innovated, out produced, out prospered all civilizations combined with only the Japanese and South Koreans producing superior trust social harmony and good government. We can argue stoicism was better, and there is nothing good in Christianity that wasn’t already better in both stoicism, and in emerging Roman sun cults compatible with our origins and history. But stoicism is costly to teach and requires literacy. Christianity evolved from primitive older institutional religions, and was imposed upon our people to kill off western Roman aristocracy creating subservience to Byzantium and her profit from straddling both civilizations. Christianity made those same Greco Roman values available for the vast number of women slaves and peasants who were neither literate or educated in the context of the familiar superstition of their primitive understanding. The church figured most of this out by the time of Aquinas, and the scholastics expanded it, and we see it’s secularization in the laws of England and the natural law of Blackstone in his commentaries and Jefferson’s deism and Jeffersonian bible. Unfortunately the church upon encountering Darwin doubled down on superstition instead of claiming victory for their unification in natural law, and opened the door for a reformation of Judaism in the pseudoscience of the Marxist to woke cults, just as the failure of the stoicism to institutionalize Roman into institutional form opened the door for superstitious Christianity. Why? Because there will always be hucksters willing to spread comforting lies by which to manipulate the weak of mind unless honest men pay the price of defense by spreading the discipline of adapting to uncomfortable truths instead. We don’t invest in mindfulness by the stoic method, so we pay the price for a half educated people. And still we do better than all others despite the vulnerability to conquest Christianity teaches as universalism – and in particular it’s appeal to women for whom responsibility for scarcity is frightening and always evaded.
