    Judaism isn’t so much a religion as a way of life, just as hinduism isn’t so much a religion as a way of life. We are WEIRD in the world. We separate religion-submission, cooperation-law, and state-military. Christianity created a disconnect even if it satisfied a need.

    It’s worth noting that there is no substitute for trifunctionalism and a universal military, universal religion, universal law, such that we demonstrate loyalty to eachother in various rituals even if we hold the opposite cognitive bias. This was the solution for the ancients. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1363631877169504268

    Given the distribution of Predator(male) and Prey(female) cognitive biases both in individuals and collectively in the population it is illogical to demand universal religion or atheism, and instead we must either separate or produce a narrative of mindfluness that is not false. https://twitter.com/curtdoolittle/status/1363631060458823685

    RELIGIOSITY is a by product of the necessity of both predator and prey, whether solitary or social, to overestimate agency in phenemenon so as to not be victim of it when it exists. Ergo prey response should (and does) increase religiosity, and religion does produce mindfulness.

    Well you know, it’s not like I disagree that religion satisfies a common human want. That’s different from arguing that it’s true. Some of us can handle that duality. Some of us can’t and so can’t balance faith and truth and choose one or the other.

    It wasn’t Christianity that made warrior saints. It was the search for booty w/ the permission of the Church to violate its ban on dominance expression. So whenever you say warrior saints you’re appealing to the lie of ‘stolen valor’.

    We are still dealing with the semitic (jewish and muslim) counter revolutions, and we have not completed our own exit from semitic christianity (superstition). Much of my work explains ‘what went wrong’ after 1830.

    Every civ produces a counter-revolutionary system of thought when the group is forced to address classical empirical thought. Most of history is a counter-revolution against the IE expansion and its cognitive revolution.

    EXPLAINING THE CONFUSION OF THE CONSERVATIVE MIND

    1. Conservative males mistake their intertemporal predictive modeling as a need for woo-woo. If you need woo-woo it means that which you are contemplating is beyond your present knowledge. It’s the instinct to patrol the borders of your territory to gain the info to model it.

    2. The problem you face is that the territory isn’t physically accessible, and the model requires knowledge of the population, economics, politics, and abstract information.

    3. So the Left’s Feminine mind can’t do intertemporal prediction and they just manufacture falsehoods. But the Right Mascluine mind manufactures demand for falsehoods too.

    4. The difference is that the left’s short term falsehood is continuously actionable using gossip and information distortion but yours requires you act on information but that the available information that is being distorted by the left – and you lack a means of defeating that.

    5. I try to provide you with P-law which is will allow you to model the world by seeing through or past the distortion, allowing to to correct the distortion, and allowing you together to organize because you see past that distortion.

    6. Because you are all searching for woo woo to organize against and it’s all failing. Becaues you’re just as bad as the left at searching for falsehoods. For the simple reason that developing a model of the world at this scale is very difficult. And P-Logic solves that problem.

    7. Unfortunately while P-law exists, you want feels not realz just like the left wants feelz not realz. So you double down on your various woo woos that you can feel, instead of learning the ‘science’ that would provide you with a model of the world free of woo woo: P-law.

    So just as we need heroic ethics(empathy), rule ethics (reason), and outcome ethics(knowledge), we need Mythology(empathy), Philosophy(reason), and Science(Evidence), because we are children, adults, and aged. And all three must be coherent and scale up and down gracefully w/ us.

  • Christian Pretense and Stolen Valor

    In the past, not today, there was enough endemic violence, and enough continuous warfare, and enough necessity of self-defense, familial defense, and local defense, that the Christian exhaustion of suppression of dominance expression mediated the presence of and incentive for violence. Yet today, what we see among Christians is not a conviction but convenience: escapism, cowardice, victimization, and eradication by a superior ancient religion (islam) and a superior modern religion (woke). It was not Christianity that made warrior saints. It was the search for booty under the permission of the church to violate the church’s ban on dominance expression. Until relatively recently war was pursued for booty because the returns on farming were barely sustainable. So whenever you say ‘warrior saints’ you’re appealing to the lie of ‘stolen valor’. You’re pretending you’re the same as those men. You aren’t. You’re just escapist little cowards like women creating a gossip circle to ameliorate your anxiety, powerlessness, and defeat. Because that’s what Abrahamic religions consist of: social construction of falsehoods that attempt to ameliorate the stress of being subject to gods logical, physical, cooperative, and evolutionary laws, which have determined, by your failure, that you’re unfit for God’s universe. Jesus taught us how to survive god’s laws – gods laws that only the Europeans and Persians had discovered, and used to conquer and rule the inferior peoples – including the Semites that had not. So Jesus told those who were ‘left behind by god’ how to tolerate gods leaving them behind – exhausting love for one another. Thus serving god by not doing harm against his laws. The jews (paulians, Christians) instead turned jesus’ teaching into another semitic system of lies. The abrahamic method of deceit is advanced a method of lying as european science is an advanced a method of speaking the truth: by aherence to the logical, physical, cooperative, and evolutionary laws of the universe. Becuase why would god need to lie or teach men to lie? Why would god teach you to avoid his laws? Laws he had built the universe from by his own will?
