  • The Market Competition Between Meaning and Truth

    October 18th, 2018 10:53 AM THE MARKET COMPETITION BETWEEN MEANING AND TRUTH

    Education: the market competition between: …. POSITIVA: MEANING: Literature, Myth, Parable – The act of Generating constant relations, and The Promise of Reward. …. -vs- …. NEGATIVA: TRUTH: History, Law, Science, Mathematics – Falsify (test) constant relations: The act of Performing Due Diligence against ignorance, error, bias, and deceit and The Warranty (Promise) of Truth (non-falsehood).

  • The Semitic Supernatural vs The European Supernormal

    October 18th, 2018 10:01 AM THE SEMITIC SUPERNATURAL VS THE EUROPEAN SUPERNORMAL [I] remember reading “The Screwtape Letters” and Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings” about the same time and I understood immediately the difference between authoritarian submissiveness (supernatural) and voluntary heroism (supernormal). We can achieve the supernormal, we are forbidden and submit to the supernatural. Our myths are SUPERNORMAL. Even our ancestors (ghosts) are supernormal, rather than supernatural. The european cultural metaphysics sees nothing as unattainable by man (competition). The semitic cultural metaphysics sees most as unattainable (submission). THE WEST: MARKETS IN EVERYTHING

  • Religion was the “Hard Problem of Social Science”

    [I]’ve said this before but religion was the “Hard Problem of Social Science”. I understood the problem of calculation early because of my work in software and AI. It took me only about year to solve the problem of government. It took me about a year to solve the problem of truth. It took about two years (cumulatively) to solve the problem of law and grammars, but cumulatively it took me almost three years to solve the problem of Fitness + Religion + Education + Training.
