  • Religion: Accountability

    The Third Principle of Freedom of Religion is accountability. That is, that all members of any faith are responsible for the heresies within that faith. Ergo, if your faith has members that violate natural law, reciprocity, or accountability then, this religion is by definition not a right, and does not protect fundamental rights.

  • Religion: The Principle of Reciprocity

    The Second Principle of Freedom of Religion is Reciprocity. So if a religion violates the principle of reciprocity, then it cannot be claimed as a fundamental right, since reciprocity is a necessary fundamental right.

  • The rise of the west was caused by greek thought – we forget that hellenic philo

    The rise of the west was caused by greek thought – we forget that hellenic philosophy began as an evolution of their pagan religion from a political to personal system of thought. Rome’s empiricism came from greek thought. The ‘golden age’ of islam was caused by the translation of greek works in bagdad during the Abbasid empire, and ended as soon as that translation effort failed, and, weakened by internal divisiveness (despite their book) the Mongols defeated them.

    In addition, the religion spread to a majority. In order to prevent further ‘westernization’ and further factionalism, they denied science and demanded that the prophet’s work was complete. A fifth to a quarter of the population was of slaves, and the arabs bred and legitimized children with the slave women.

    Now compare this with roman, post roman, common and continental law, as a basis for society, while at the same time, possessing a political semi-pagan religion, and a division of powers.

    The west’s philosophy is the common law and natural law. It’s rational and evolves due to empirical observation of the resolution of disputes. Science is likewise empirical.

    christianity is just a mask – a set of stories over the top of arianism. It gave the warriors an excuse. Just as islam gave her warriors an excuse.

  • I understand the importance of sacredness in the commons, and why the sacred gro

    I understand the importance of sacredness in the commons, and why the sacred grove was so influential for us. The painful discipline of respecting the sacred in Churches every week, teaches you a behavior to demonstrate in the commons. Those who cannot control their impulses sufficiently in sacred places have many other nasty habits. Men who have nasty habits but can control their impulses in sacred places can still expect to be respected in matters of the sacred.

    i can respect teh sacredness of ritual in japan, I do not like the sacredness of buddhism’s internal life, I certainly do not like the sacredness of muslim obeyance, or its pervasive dominance of society. Certainly don’t like the jewish verbal separatism. I can criticize our churches for their attempt to preserve their absurd babylonian/jewish mysticism. But it is quite hard to argue with the rituals of stoicism, and the sacredness of the grove. The problem I see is that these are not political orders, so much as tribal, and that our people (the west) did not develop a political religion after paganism. And maybe that was the right answer.

    How do we create sacredness in nature, man, and the relationship between nature and man once again? How do we return to the transform of the earth in a garden? Into paradise?
