    PARSIMONY BUT INCOMPLETENESS

    Agency = Action | Truth = Knowledge

    We never have complete knowledge(omniscience) or complete agency (omnipotence).

  • Lack of Due Diligence = Lying

    LACK OF DUE DILIGENCE = LYING Aug 06, 2017 1:51pm by Bill Joslin —“Curt equates a lack of due diligence to vet ones ideas against error, bias, self deception, overloading etc as lying. Any primacy of consciousness or theism stands as arguing for a preference opposed to arguing a point in the commons. Theism and primacy of-conciousness are not verifiable in the commons – to proceed with them you must accept these premises. ***When we verify via our best empirical methods, our arguments gain credibility from reality. When we assert based on a priorisms which can not be found in reality we use logic to “steal credibility from reality” – we assert it as reality without consulting reality- a transfer of credibility from existence in reality, to the interpretive framework.*** If an argument holds arbitrary assertions we can dismiss it off-hand. (If asserted without evidence it can be dismissed without evidence)”—

    MYTHOLOGY MAKES NO PRETENSE

    Mythology makes no pretense, nor law, nor requests no compensation. I’m a fan of fairy tales, myths, legends, histories.

    They are necessary due to the intertemporal content of their information, and the increasing precision and depth we need as we accumulate knowledge. In the end we should find science and law. But not all of us can complete the journey.

    My problem is the pretense of truth.
