    (FB 1550461054 Timestamp) THE SCIENCE OF RELIGIOSITY IN THREE POINTS Negative correlation between intelligence and religion. Greater negative correlation for dogma than behavior. In other words people demonstrate ethical behavior under the advice of the religion’s wisdom literature but ignore the dogma.

    1. First, intelligent people are less likely to (need to) conform and, thus, are more likely to resist religious dogma.
    2. Second, intelligent people tend to adopt an analytic (as opposed to intuitive) thinking style, which has been shown to undermine religious beliefs.

    3. Third, several functions of religiosity, including compensatory control, self-regulation, self-enhancement, and secure attachment, are also conferred by intelligence. Intelligent people may therefore have less need for religious beliefs and practices.

    In other words, we cannot NOT have some sort of intuitionistic training of some form. Women are biased toward greater demand for mindfulness out of genetics. The lower classes are biased toward greater demand for mindfulness out of ability. “RELIGION” SOLVES THE NEURAL ECONOMY PROBLEM BY SOLVING THE MINDFULNESS PROBLEM.

    (FB 1550437292 Timestamp) TALKING TO THE GODS THAT EXIST I talk to my god every day. Fairly often. The difference is that i have a scientific understanding of this god as a sort of low level ‘software’ I consult, and response as intuition or feeling rather than high level software like speech. This knowledge poses no problem for me. It is simply true. And it works. We all share similar versions of this software in every faith that depends upon fictional characters. This software does its job. For some reason the fact that this software is in our physical brains rather than in some imaginary alternate plane or universe seems to be difficult for others. And they would rather believe in magic men with superpowers, than a bit of low level software that we all run at all times and consciously and unconsciously update with new tweaks from one another. I mean… this is how gods, heroes, the dead, actually exist – as information. And once you understand that the universe consist entirely of what we have no better word for than ‘information’, this makes a lot more sense. Over time my ‘god’ has ‘revealed himself’ (meaning transformed into) something between An ancient oak grove, the bodies of my ancestors, Odin, Aristotle, and Aurelius. Because it shares those … similarities. He is a god of my experience and making. And he rarely if ever fails me. So I talk to him all the time whenever I think “what should I do?” about anything meaningful. Then I write down what I think after that and I’m done. Because writing words – making them real – tames the intuition (subconsious).

    (FB 1550433323 Timestamp) RELEVANCE OF ALL OUR RELIGIOUS TEACHINGS AND TRADITIONS —“Curt Doolittle , I would submit to you this fact, even if many Christians are nominal and not walking out all the prescribed teachings of their faith, the teachings are still sound and available for reference in order to keep some semblance of functionality for the greater society as a whole..”— Bab Sorgente Um. I would say that they (christians) would rather we institutionalize christianity in the constitution as the practice of the five rules of christianity, the natural law of reciprocity, and that no other religions counter to such may be tolerated, would give them sufficient license to show that their religion is in fact ‘True’ when taught as a mythology of wisdom literature, and only ‘false’ if they teach it as history. (because that is what most smart folk in the world think.) I am a christian in that it means property rights (ten commandments), the sacred (limits to my rights of expression action and thought), natural law (reciprocity), and jesus teaching (exhaustion of all possible opportunity for forgiveness for ingroup members). THIS IS THE STRATEGY BEHIND CHRISTIANITY. But the magic man nonsense for illiterates and morons so that they believe an omniscient and omnipotent yet never evident someone worth worshipping as a slavemaster loves them despite their low status low agency and low ability – is just that and nothing but fairy stories for slaves to tolerate their enslavement until death. So we are really in a question whether we continue the evolution of our religions of heathen, aryan, greco-roman, christian, philosophical and scientific into something we all can COMPROMISE UPON, or we can keep those individual religions and agree only on the scientific substance behind all our natural religions – the ~22 Laws.
