    If you want a Church that works, you need a church that is state funded, otherwise they sell false promise to the bottom.

    Our founders were only interested in prohibiting the choice of one christian sect over the others. they were presuming that christianity was the religion of the state, and only didn’t include it in the bill of rights because they didn’t want the state choosing the sect.

    Now that we know only Christianity is compatible with natural law that’s not a problem.

    WHY IS P A SHIFT IN YOUR THOUGHT?

    (from mythology to theology, theology to philosophy, philosophy to science, science to propertarianism.)

    Like most people you are used to moral, philosophical (rational and frankly sophomoric) argument from those thinkers. These methods merely confirm what you intuit. They don’t do anything to falsify what others intuit differently. P is falsificationary, and so far, impossible to refute (just as is bounded rationality and rational choice).

    In other words, I don’t do work that makes you feel good or sells you, I explain why the left lies and how they lie and how to write the law so that they can’t engage in lying, fraud, and misrepresentation.

    Unfortunately, one of the casualties of that effort is the sophomoric nonsense from the Tribe’s second attempt at conquering western civlization: marx-communism-socialism, Trotsky-neoconservatism, rand/rothbard-libertarianism, Friedman-feminism, and derrida-postmodernism. And the other casualty (unfortunately) is judaism, christianity, and islam, all of which make use of the same technique of deception – of which you are a rather obvious victim.

    Now, if you’re used to literary moralizing (sophism) then transitioning to a formal operational via-negativa logic isn’t going to be easy for you. And it’s to be expected that it’s hard.

    If you have studied physics or economics or law it’s easier. If you know the philosophy of science it’s easier. If you know mathematics reasonably well it’s easier. But you need at least one of those things as an anchor for me (or others) to start from, otherwise we have to start in kindergarten so to speak and that’s not fair because it’s too much work.

    Once you know the grammars we can teach you testimony. Once you know testimony we can teach you property in toto. then we can teach you eprime, complete sentences, in operational language using all of the above. Then we can move on to acquisitinoism, compatibilism, class structure by the three means of coercion.

    Somewhere along that series you will get it.

    And you will never be the same again.

    Because everything in the world of psychology, sociology, politics and war becomes trivially clear.

  • THE ANTAGONISTS IN THE ILIAD AND THE BIBLE: WHAT ALL REVOLUTIONARIES CLAIM TO BE

    THE ANTAGONISTS IN THE ILIAD AND THE BIBLE: WHAT ALL REVOLUTIONARIES CLAIM TO BE

    by Don Miguel

    All I am pointing out is that there is a big difference in the relations between the protagonists and antogonists of the Illiad and that Bible.

    The antagonists in the Odyssey, are seen in a rather Satanic light and people utterly without excuse. For many reasons:

    1) They are in another’s kingdom and yet do not respect the interests of the King.

    2) They have been given many chances to repent to the regents or deputies of the true ruler and yet fail to do so.

    3) They treat the kingdom as if it belonged to them who are only guests.

    Therefore and a day and hour of which only the gods know, there shall be justice severe and eternal when the true rulers return.

    It’s like LOTR, Robin Hood, the Mahabharata, and the New Testament.

    The good guys who are the representatives/descendants of the proper rulers are marginalized and vilified by the current usurpers.

    The current world order of peace and prosperity was created in accordance with natural law, and the signs of this agency are found in the order that we enjoy. But the people who currently rule are not the servants of Natural Law but usurpers.

    This is what Christians are claimed to be in the Bible as well as what just revolutionaries claim to be.

    By Don Miguel (Must read)

    You are correct about how fundamental Homer’s work was to the classical worldview. If you read the Platonic dialogue “Ion”, it is clear that the Greeks say Homer as a conduit of divine scripture.

    My only criticism is that in my view the parallels between the Biblical and Homeric metanarratives are many, strong, adn far more important than the differences. Some of these similarities are discussed in my below-linked blog post.

    The main difference is that in the Bible, God promises to give the protagonists possession over the land of the antagonists 500 years earlier for no apparent reason and the antagonists are not characters in the drama other than as “the bad guys”.

    In the Illiad, both sides are seen as good and heroic in their own way and the war is just a by-product of an ultimately meaningless conflict among the gods.

    In my view, this is the main difference between them. Which of these two are more relevant to our current situation? I think it’s the former, since our enemies have no real claim to equality with us; our conflict with them is not just a misunderstanding or bad luck as it is in the Illiad. Most the Norse myths also lack a villian who is wholly “other”- for example Loki cannot even tell a lie when he is trapped by Thyrm. The giants are just the impersonal forces of nature or chaos. In the Mahabharata, the Pandavas and the Kauravas are both relatives and both end up meeting in heaven.

    The Canaanites, Philistines, Judas and the Synagogue of Satan are not noble like Priam and Hector. That is the main difference between them in my view. Our struggle at this late point in history is for higher stakes. We are no longer at the level of “may the best man win”.

    CHRISTIAN COMPATIBILITY

    Yeah, well you know, the faithful need to believe the mythos is true because men said so. We, the rational, only need to understand that Christian love, natural law of reciprocity and the physical laws are written in the structure of the universe regardless of what men said. The difference is between a personal god that they desire, and the impersonal god or nature that we observe. What we can say is that whether you are a supernatural and theological Christian first and Aristotelian second, or an Aristotelian first and scientific Christian second, that the only difference is their need to preserve the social construction of a personal deity and a life after death. Like the empathic female (christians-first), and the analytic male (aristotelians-first), women and men are also compatible – we are just not identical. I don’t know why that’s intolerable other than it leaves them on the defense in creating the social construction of a mythical reality in which they have a greater sense of control than they in fact do. But it is simply true that people who lack agency need more rigid less dynamic rules to live by. Whereas we have greater agency and are comfortable with scientific christian love, scientific natural law, and scientific physical law, because we have ourselves and others of equal agency to trust – and they don’t. So it’s understandable that they want their faith to produce the outcomes. It’s understandable that we don’t need faith in order to produce the same outcome. And it’s rather obvious that these two positions are as compatible as are the male and female.
