    THE ECONOMICS OF RELIGION – CATHOLIC FINANCE
    –“The medieval records show, however, that the normal economic incentive of profit drove Church practice. The ban on usury was a way to make sure that public wealth was not siphoned off to lenders but instead was available for paying tithes. What the record shows more concretely, is that the Roman Curia, or head office, loaned money to its own divisions in the field—bishops, monasteries, or religious orders—at high interest rates. This allowed Rome to collect rents downstream, a very normal profit-making practice of the multidimensional firm.”–

    You may not know the difference between aristocracy (natural) and nobility (appointed by the state). Even though these terms are often conflated, they mean different things and they often overlapped.

    Second Doolittle “De Dolietta” is a Norman name from the coast east of Mont St Michele, and my ancestors were literate involved in political decisions and in written records before the norman conquest. My family history takes eight volumes with additional supplements. And on my grandmother’s side they are only three generations removed from scottish nobility (forbush, forbes etc). In early new england literature they’re referred to as lesser aristocracy.

    So there hasn’t been a peasantry in my family that we know of at least since the that time. Although there is some tragedy that occurs in southern england during the plague – which is when many names were affected by the collapse in population and literacy.

    In fact it wasn’t even until the 1950s that we saw outbreeding. My father was disinherited for marrying a catholic.

    Cheers

    –“Do you mean the deep state is powerful and the POTUS is just a puppet?”–
    It’s more true than false. The only power the US president has is in foreign affairs, and that’s not a good thing. Even then the deep state has interests that are self interests in the assumption that it is valueable to continue to maintain the american (and british) policing of world finance and trade, so that the world doesn’t fall into another world war – which is very close to happening without american and british policing of it.

    NLI: ADDING MEDICINE, RELIGION, AND TOWNS?
    We work on solving problems of government and bureaucratic sector, law and the legal sector, economics and the financial sector, education and the education sector. And we work on strong people with basic human competency in defense against the world, and strong family and careers with something we don’t quite have a name for but turns out to be basic adult competency in life.

    But there has been a hole in the middle of that scope: “Medicine, Religion, and Towns” and by next year we want to round out the set of topics by finding speakers that can address these topics.

    Brad is adding insurance, bureaucracy, and the medical sector in next month’s conference.

    We’re going to pursue Strong Towns, though we haven’t got a bite yet. If we have to develop someone we will.

    And while it’s been on the back burner we’re going to at least address religion, at least in the abstract, from the supernatural to the traditional, to the philosophical.

    So while my work is focused on the law, the institute is applying the principles of decidability and european group strategy across the spectrum of institutions we all rely. upon together.

    Cheers

    Actually, if you want to get technical about it, he’s using a feminine jewish abrahamic marxist methodology to oppose the feminine jewish marxist capture of US and european institutions using women voters and populating those institutions with leftists that his people have already defeated, but despite defeating them have adopted their strategy and tactics of lying, sedition, and propaganda and psychological warfare. As always the feminine jewish marxist sedition exists to divide people and cause them to fight one another.

    C’est une question intelligente. Bien que la géographie ait une influence et que la démographie (essentiellement le QI) ait beaucoup plus d’influence, ce sont les institutions qui ont le plus d’influence sur la condition d’un peuple. Ainsi, compte tenu de la géographie, des ressources et de la démographie de la Russie, par exemple, la seule raison pour laquelle ils sont pauvres est la médiocrité des institutions. Alors oui, c’est la faute du gouvernement et la faute du peuple s’il n’exige pas un meilleur gouvernement.

    Je connais la plupart des principales langues européennes. Ainsi, avec l’aide de la traduction, je peux facilement comprendre le sens et répondre.

  • GREAT QUESTION: WHAT IS A RIGHT, POSSESSION, INTEREST? A right consists and can

    GREAT QUESTION: WHAT IS A RIGHT, POSSESSION, INTEREST?
    A right consists and can only consist in a community of insurers of that right, where that right consists of the criteria by which one can appeal to the insurers (jury, court, public, sherrif, militia, military) and make an insurance claim against another person or group.

    A possession is a fact. That’s all it means. It does not convey whether that possession is free of appeal to insurers for restitution and punishment of an imposition of cost on the demonstrated interests of others.

    A demonstrated interest consists of investing in obtaining full or partial or fragmentary control of something whether self, kin, material, common, informal institution or formal institution WITHOUT imposing costs upon the demonstrated interests of others.

    Therefore property is the label we use for legitimately obtained demonstrated interests over which you have some degree of individual to group rights that we can use in appeal to an insurer to prevent the imposition of costs upon that interest by others, or claim restitution and punishment for any imposition upon it.

    Possibly confusing is the original use of the term ‘interest’ meaning ‘ownership’ into ‘interesting’ meaning only a curiosity. In law, ‘interest’ means you have demonstrated some degree of demonstrated investment in the asset without imposing on those of others.

    A.
    He is a very bad man, digging a very deep hole that will cost his people more than the holes he dug before this one. There is no reason russia isn’t wealthy other than the corruption of the ruling class and the low trust among the russian people.

    OK. So I’ll create a ‘serious’ group if you will go find the serious people to invite to it. How about that? 😉
