    Hence why we need a “bible” of Truth (Natural Law) as a sacred scripture which no man-made act may contradict without license for his death.

    Truth is enough. It has always been enough.

    WE TRIED A CENTURY OF THINKING WE WERE SMARTER THAN OUR ANCESTORS – AND WE WERE WRONG. THEY JUST DIDN”T WRITE THEIR ‘BIBLE’ DOWN.

    Western man created the commons as a sacred place. Other civilizations didn’t. That’s why we have beautiful commons. And the rest of the world treats the commons like either their living room or a dumpster.

    Do not assume you possess the knowledge of wisdom to counter traditions developed over thousands of years – and are the very cause of which you are able to live better than a dirt scratching peasant farmer picking fleas out of your hair.

    Western man evolved to worship nature as sacred, and he preserved this in the commons at very high cost, put through imitation of the effete classes who demanded it.

    We just tried a century of thinking we were smarter than our ancestors, and it turns out we weren’t.

    I should point out that as far as I know only the Japanese and the christian west have managed to create nature and commons as sacred places.

    MIND > TOILET > BEDROOM > HOME > COMMONS > COURT > SACRED-PLACES > SACRED CEREMONIES.

    (trigger warning – some comments may be offensive)

    Some people cant manage separating what’s acceptable in their living rooms from that which is acceptable in the commons. And conversely, what is unacceptable in the commons is non of our business in the bedroom.

    We must always be cautious, and understand that we are not terribly wise. And that over thousands of years we have developed a set of norms and taboos needed to ensure that the bedroom, home, and commons operate by different principles

    We all have different disgust and purity responses. Those disgust and purity responses are genetic in origin. And the vary for a very good reason, just like most of our moral instincts vary for a good reason.

    As far as I know, when nursing, the public is fine with blankets over your shoulder and tucked in a corner. Otherwise the public forum is not your home. We worked very hard for thousands of years to create higher demand for behavior in the commons than in the home and bedroom.

    I realize it we all like to think we are ‘normal’ but we are not. That’s a cognitive bias we evolved in order to give us confidence in the face of our distributed instincts.

    Demand for ‘pure’ commons behavior is an advanced technology we created just like high trust.

    Those cultures that did not do so, did not develop high trust – and in most if not all cases, no commons. And certainly no civic societies.

    Primitivism is primitivism and should not be considered tolerance. It’s just primitivism.

    To preserve the difference between home and commons we show purity (deference) for doing so.

    This is why some societies have foul commons (most of the world outside of the high-trust west) and a few societies (the protestant west) have high trust societies, and beautiful commons.

    Covering yourself is signaling respect for the high trust society and the commons, and the distinction between the home and commons.

    It means you’re a good person, and not covering up means you’re a bad person. It’s pretty simple.

    Your opinion isn’t meaningful in the matter.

    MOST PHILOSOPHERS ARE SMART – BUT VICTIMS OF NEW MYSTICISM

    —“Are you sure Hoppe is this intelligent? It doesn’t seem like he is above any random sampling of legitimate philosophers. Argumentation ethics are outrageous.”—-

    That’s an interesting question. He’s intelligent, disciplined, articulate, and well read. He came very, very close to figuring out the fundamental problem of criticism. But you know if you go through the list of living philosophers, it’s… almost entirely a wasteland of nonsense.

    I think I understand what is wrong with western man’s intelligence (Hilary Putnam aside), and it’s that this set of lies I am fighting to overthrow – a sort of new mysticism – has infected everyone like a virus, and it is getting worse.

    There is no more some special hidden knowledge than there is a heaven. We have converted teh christian fantasy world into a post-mystical logical equivalent.

    Instead, the entire universe of man’s thought is quite simple – trivial even.

    This is why truth is so important.

    I didn’t think I could develop a way of articulating this new mysticism, like the ‘divine realm’ or ‘platonic realm’ or ‘world of the gods’ that came before it. I think I might be able to. Just as I have with truth and the evolution of weasel-words.

    But when we say “I search for the truth” vs “I wish to state this as truthfully as is possible” then we are creating a fantasy world. There is no truth to find. There is only error and ignorance to remove from the human mind.

    ARE THE RUSSIANS RIGHT? ARE THE CHINESE RIGHT? ARE WE WRONG? (YES) …. ISLAM IS THE CAUSE OF THE DESCENT OF MAN.

    I love Russian people. I love them perhaps most of all. In some ways they are the only non-ideological europeans remaining. The only people who do not let idealism interfere with their perception of reality.

    I consistently criticize the government. And I criticize the government almost entirely for using propaganda and deception. The rest I attribute to paranoia of a low trust society accumulating and concentrating in political office.

    My argument is quite simple: If you’re right, just tell the truth about it. The truth is enough.

    China Subjugates the muslims to the west – and are wise to.

    Russia Subjugates the muslims to the south – and are wise to.

    Africa resists the muslims to the north – and are wise to.

    Europa attempts to ‘civilize’ them through commercial exchange and incorporation.

    There is only one fool here: The West.

    And one set of advocates: the cosmopolitans, feminists, and postmodernists.

    The Muslim groups have an IQ below the threshold of employability.

    They cannot be integrated.

    They cannot be converted.

    Their reproduction causes genetic damage.

    And Muslims are easily antagonized because islam requires the grant of respect (reinforcement) of the ignorant and dim. Ours requires that you earn it, or know your place as an inferior who is tolerated. THis provides an incentive to imiate one’s betters if one cannot comprehend them. And to learn if it is possible. Our civilizations attempt to coral the underclasses so that they cannot damage us. And we sought to eliminate them by hard and soft eugenics for almost all of our history – until women got the vote.

    The muslims do not do this. They spread through reproduction and demand for respect for the dim and ignorant, and the reinforcement of the dim and ignorant if they can follow the scripture of the dim and ignorant.

    We spent a thousand years of darkness trying to overcome the first great lie – supernatural monotheism.

    We have spent the last 150 trying to overcome the second great lie (the jewish pseudosciences).

    We are importing a third great lie – islam.

    We cannot cure islam with science.

    We could cure pseudoscience and christianity with science because both were predicated on reason and intelligent carriers in the upper classes.

    But islam does not advance because of intelligence and reason, but by aggression, ignorance, genetic inferiority, and rapid reproduction.

    There is no forward direction to evolution. Our brains are not getting bigger.

    We distributed calculation through voluntary cooperation as a means of computation. A vast division of perception, cognition, knowledge, advocacy and negotiation.

    But there is no reason that a human that is more aggressive, less intelligent, with faster reproduction will not defeat intelligence.

    As Stephen J Gould argued – intelligence is a costly and not necessarily useful advantage. For the simple reason that it is far more expensive that just reproducing faster and consuming fewer resources.

    We may have already reached peak human, and islam is the end of the ascent man.

    Perhaps the Russians are right: you fight mysticism with reason, reason with rationalism, rationalism and pseudoscience with science.

    But if you must defeat the dim, the ignorant, who employ nothing but reproduction and aggression, then you must fight them on their terms: with deception and violence. In other words: war.

    Islam is an invasive species.

    Violence is the only cure.

    Time to cure the world of this disease.

    Why are we fighing for status between the west, the russians, and the chinese, when our common interest is to resist the people of the steppe and desert?

    —“Director of the Russian Institute for Strategic Research Leonid Reshetnikov believes there is an attempt to eliminate Orthodoxy in Ukraine.”Ukrainism from the very start was an anti-Orthodox concept: it was directed not only against Russians, against Moskals (Moscovites – IF), it was directed against Orthodoxy.”—

    Not quite true.

    Ukrainian people will not forgive Russians for their present or past crimes against them.

    Nor will Russians apologize for their crimes against the people of eastern Europe and lessen Ukrainian anger over their impoverishment, deception, starvation, and murder. It is not in the Russian character to apologize for Russian crimes against humanity.

    Ukrainian people understand that the orthodox church has intentionally evolved into a propaganda and intelligence service for Moscow.

    Ukrainian people are increasingly skeptical of their church – partly because many orthodox priests act like little more than beggars in robes – and partly because they know that the priests can be bought by Moscow.

    My adopted ‘family’ here was raised Orthodox and goes to the catholic church. For the simple reason that the mass is full of love and personal encouragement rather than authority and promise.

    I am a christian and a catholic, a cultural american and an ethnic Englishman.

    Unlike some (lesser) peoples, I am not conflicted whatsoever by the separation between my faith and science. I don’t need to apply reason to my faith, i need to intuit it. And I am not sure that I can do more than that. (and I can understand a lot of things). I need to understand my universe, so that can act in it. I cannot intuit it. So I must not rely upon my intuition. Instead I must rely upon my reason.

    For simple minds this may be a contradiction.

    But Faith is faith. Science is Science. If they contradict, then my understanding of my faith is incorrect.

    I have no problem banning people who cannot do the same.
