THE GREATEST TRAGEDY IN HUMAN HISTORY ?

RE: Lawrence Krauss says Religion Could Be Gone In a Generation.

WHICH RELIGION?

That presupposes that Democratic Secular Pseudoscientific Humanism isn’t also a religion. Which is what he presupposes. And what all of the members of the Cathedral presuppose.

But, all things considered, there is no comparison between Christianity’s unification of Europe, or even the Stoic Schools, and:

1) The death and destruction of Marxism led by the Academy, and the battle against it – resisted by the Academy,

2) Keynesianism (reformed marxism) – led by the academy, and fought by religious groups;

3) The cognitive, social, and normative damage done by postmodernism – led by the academy, fought by traditionalist groups;

4) Anthropological, biological, and social pseudoscience and psychologism – led by the academy and fought by religious and traditional groups;

5) The destruction of the law of property and the common law – led by the academy and fought by religious and traditional groups.

6) The current pseudoscientific justification of democracy – led by the academy, and fought by traditional groups.

7) The destruction of the family – led by the academy and resisted by religious groups.

So if we critically, empirically, rationally, and scientifically analyze the comparative differences, then all that we would find, is that eliminating mysticism and replacing it with general rules, has made more effective workers. But in every other respect, religion and tradition have been superior to rational and pseudoscientific and immoral advocacy by the academy.

THE ACADEMY AS IMMORAL PRIESTHOOD

The academy functions as a religion because its central propositions – other than the nearly accidental success at disassembling the physical universe into general rules – are ALL FALSE.

In fact, physical science used to justify all the other falsehoods of the Pseudoscientific democratic secular socialist humanitarian religion, despite the contrary evidence.

THE ACADEMY PROFITS FROM SELLING IMMORALITY BECAUSE THE FILTERING OF A COLLEGE EDUCATION PROVIDES ACCESS TO JOBS.

We don’t learn much in the university, other than how to cooperate with one another, and to work hard on complex tasks in the service of professors. This turns out to be fairly good training for white collar jobs, since these behavioral disciplines are what are necessary for survival in white collar work forces. However, that does not mean that subject matter we are taught is valuable – just the opposite. IN the work force, students use almost nothing that they learn from the subjects that they study in college, and they remember nothing of college afterwards.

What they are taught does not serve society or industry – and arguable is in the disservice of the students. Because what they are taught does little but preserve the mythos of the Cathedral, the Academy and the State. It is an exceptional racket: to filter people by natural ability and teach them to work together, but teach them how to work together on immoral objectives.

If instead of paying upfront for this defective product – a product consisting of a behavioral half truth, and a mythological suite of pseudoscientific lies – we instead paid for our educations from a percentage of our lifetime earned incomes. You would see the subject matter in the Academy change rapidly to suit the needs of the customer, rather than the fraud of the Academy and State.

We have perhaps created the most perverse incentives in the world by sacrificing our parent’s retirements for an education that is harmful to our society, in every possible way, and has rendered our people incompetent to compete on the world stage, by the myth that a college education is the secret to wealth and prosperity, when in fact, your capability is the secret to your prosperity, the academy teaches you nothing, and is little more than a behavioral boot camp that tests your social, physical, and mental endurance at a very high price.

How this state of affairs, where the academy sells parchments claiming you have knowledge, to pay for new buildings and more administrative personnel, is materially any different from the priesthood selling Indulgences claiming you are forgiven of sins, to pay for the construction of St Peters and an increase in the number of members of the priesthood hard to determine – primary because there is precisely no difference whatsoever. All that has happened by the rapid expansion of the costs of university education, is that teaching professors are both paid less, are less secure in their jobs, are deprived of tenure, and they have nearly disappeared from the academy, while bureaucrats have multiplied, endowments have multiplied, and the physical plant – the buildings – owned by the academy has expanded dramatically.

Humans follow incentives no matter how perverse, and the academy, particularly once it could educate women, has done nothing but follow its perverse incentives. And it is impossible (I know) to argue otherwise.

So the Cathedral: the academy and state religion, funded by the sale of modern indulgences in the form of a parchment – and constituting an organizational which persists by profiting both materially and in social status, from the sale of dysgenic reproduction, via the generation of hyper-consumption, and the consequential destruction of the family, is a religion.

A religion wherein millions of horrid crimes against not only humanity, but western civilization, are justified by but one success – the success of physical science – over which the academy’s fallacies have no jurisdiction.

The irony is suffocating.

So. Yes. It would be wonderful if we could stamp out religion in one generation. Especially the religion of pseudoscientific democratic secular, socialist humanism. Which has finally succeeded in overcoming the christianization of Europe as the greatest tragedy in human history.

ALTERNATIVES

I have a wonderful suggestion. Why don’t we return to worshiping, as in, holding celebrations of remembrance for, our heroes in:

1) Our Military generals and our statesmen.

2) Our Philosophers, scientists and engineers.

3) Our Saints, Caretakers, Healers, nurses, and mothers.

4) Our Entrepreneurs, Capitalists, businessmen and laborers who struggle to raise us from poverty to prosperity.

5) Our tribes and families which as kingdoms bear each other no offense, and every possible opportunity to learn.

6) The planet that birthed, raised, loves and nurturers us, and upon which we depend.

BUT WAIT!!!!

Oh. Wait!!! That would mean returning us to our original european religion before the state imposed Christianity upon us by forcing closed the stoic schools and imposing the church upon us, in the same way that the academy and state have incrementally destroyed our churches, and imposed pseudoscientific, democratic secular socialist humanism upon us!!!!

HISTORY

History is the only thing worth celebrating. Our heroes the gods to speak to – meaning pray to. Because if we understand the lives of those heroes well enough, we will find that the answers to our prayers to them are already within us waiting to be heard.

SCIENCE IS THE PRESTIGE – A DISTRACTING GESTURE BY WHICH THE LIARS JUSTIFY THEIR LIES

Science is a ruse to distract us from history. The false dichotomy the liars have created is between the church and science, when it is between history, pseudoscience, and mysticism.
