    Western civilization allows for the clearing of moral preferences through exchange in markets. All other civilizations fail because they don’t.

    —“I’ve not spent much of my life in “nerdland” so it’s interesting to observe the language and the operational detail/ complexity in your replies to me. It’s both fascinating and bewildering at the same time. … I am trying to reserve judgment on this form of communication as Curt obviously thinks it’s important for matters of P law and warrantied speech moving forward. It’s not that it’s not decipherable, I simply automatically find myself translating it into plain speech that is much more compact and universally understandable.”—by Stephen Wells

    That’s a good thing. 😉 a) you can tell others in plain language, but; b) if someone comes along with a sophism or deceit you know that there is more behind it than simple language. Think of it this way:

    P is math. Carpenters work by rules of thumb. We falsify false rules of thumb with math. My job and P’s job is to prevent false rules of thumb. Your job is to spread true rules of thumb. Together we win. hugs

    —“Plain language that we can all agree on.”—Stephen Wells

    I’ve been consistent in my position. (a) I don’t practice equality even among my kinfolk – I practice loyalty and noblesse oblige. (b) researchers in the sciences produce research. activists gain status followers and influence by distributing it. I manufacture intellectual weaponry. it’s “your” (collective) job to figure out how to use it. 😉 (c) this ensures you are leaders and we distribute leadership rather than making me the center of anything at all. I manufacture goods that leaders will use. It’s a natural selection process. And if you can use P you pass. 😉 Now go out and lead. === OR By Noah J Revoy === You don’t have to agree. – Lead if you can understand, agree and can create. – Follow if you can understand and agree. – Or else get out of the way.

  • See? Christianity Will Play a Vital Role

    May 23, 2020, 7:56 AM by Lloyd Grainger (hey everyone I’m reposting this…) Listen people. My brother and I are strong Evangelical Christians. Unbeknownst to myself and my brother we are also Aryan, due to Curt Doolittle’s definition. Also as soon as the reset button is pushed by someone we are ready to start the fight. We will extinguish any and all liberals/leftist, including those who claim to be Christian, until there are no more or we are killed in action. Petty bickering is fruitless. Anybody that is a true Christian revels in the possibility of reciprocity. And natural law. To exterminate all parasitism and rent-seeking even in the church. I was very concerned about how Christians and the natural law of reciprocity can coexist. So I searched for religion and any and all documents on the properterian institute website. And studied all the videos about Christianity that CD posted. And have came to the conclusion that Christianity and the church will play a vital part and the new reconstructed natural law Constitution 2.0. Curt admits that there is no way possible to legislate what someone thinks and believes. We can only legislate the negatives for what somebody cannot do through word deed or display. All this is very possible, but the problem will be in many cases from our dogmatic legalistic leaders. That want to force our society to be a Christian only society. And have all our laws based on Christianity. This is not possible under reciprocity. But seriously, after all the parasites, rent seekers, liars, cheats, and any other term you want to use are eliminated. The matter of conforming our Christianity and to the natural law of reciprocity in word deed and display will not be a problem. I don’t fully understand how it will all play out; but I have no doubt but it will work out. After all if we truly believe that God is in charge, then what would we be scared of. Thanks everybody. Due to me being a Navy chief petty officer I tend to not be very touchy-feely. So I hope you catch the spirit of my message, and not necessarily how I say it.

  • The Golden Rule Explained

    Oct 2, 2019, 3:41 PM by Luke Weinhagen Those of us living in high trust societies recognize the importance of The Golden Rule. We understand its value and the benefits we derive from it. It is one of the first formal lessons in social interaction we teach our children. But when you stop there at the Golden Rule alone, we too easily take it for granted. What we seem to miss is that rather than the Golden Rule being the First Rule of a high trust society – it is the last. THE FOUNDATIONS And so we often take for granted the other foundational rules:

    1. Via Positiva: ……. The Golden Rule.
    2. Via Negativa: ….. The Silver Rule.
    3. Via Logica: ……….The Natural Law of Reciprocity.
    4. Via Existentia: …. Rule of Law,
      ………………………….. … The Jury, and
      ………………………….. … Markets in everything.
    5. The Iron Rule: …. Might Makes Right.

    These are Foundational rules – rules that form the foundations of interaction upon which we build the functions of our society – the closer you get to the Golden Rule the more trust you can support. But High Trust, absent vigilance, allows one to make the mistake of standing on that foundation seeing nothing but the immaculate Gold and stop looking – ignoring the layers below that must be there to support each ascending layer. But these other rules can not be ignored. They are active. Starting from the Iron Rule each rule supports the next, making each possible in turn. The next rule in sequence can not exist without the previous rule being applied and maintained. Today someone is out there applying the fifth rule so that you have access to the fourth. Today someone is out there applying the fourth rule so that you have access to the third. Today someone is out there applying the third rule so that you have access to the second. Today someone is out there applying the second rule so that you have access to the first. “BE THAT SOMEONE” Be willing and able to be that someone. All they way down. If you can not be that someone, be grateful that someone is there. If you can not be grateful, at least do not try to knock that someone down – Trust is valuable and we really want to keep the Golden Rule. These are the rules. They are not complicated, but they are demanding. They are not hard to understand, but they so often seem easy to forget. -Luke Weinhagen
