LOGICAL MINDS ONLY
Logic is not opinion nor is it moved by assumptions. Logic follows its own course and rules. Logic cannot be rescinded, reconfigured or reformed. Logic is implacable and absolute. LOGICAL MINDS ONLY follow logic to where it leads. Those who do not follow logic to wherever it leads end up in a place that is demonstrably irrational. LOGICAL MINDS ONLY is a podcast for those whose commitment to logic is absolute. Those whose commitment is to an ideology, or particular worldview, or set of assumptions or who want to find factoids to support an assumption are wasting their time here.

Why Trump Will Ultimately Fail 08.04.2025 8:46

The author suggests an Apriori...
What Is A Theocracy 07.04.2025 11:51
A theocracy is presented as an ideal system where true equality prevails, unlike other forms of government that centralize power and wealth. In a theocracy, individuals do not surrender their voice to a central authority but remain equal, owning only what they create without claims on others' creations. This encourages innovation and specialization, ensuring progress. Everyone has equal rights...
Righteousness in Scripture 06.04.2025 12:18
The essay emphasizes the importance of grace in the Christian faith, highlighting that while salvation is a gift of grace from God, unearned and bestowed through Jesus Christ's sacrifice, believers are called to extend grace and forgiveness to others. This cycle of forgiveness not only aligns with the divine example but also distinguishes the righteous from those who take more than they give....
How To Measure Faith In The Church 04.04.2025 10:43
This document discusses the concept of rebirth in Christianity, emphasizing that believers are reborn as infants and require a process of perfection through reconciliation and faith.

A Question On Morality For Liberals 03.04.2025 14:01
Here we argue that conservatives base their morality on God's absolute standards, which provide a clear, unchanging guide for righteous living, whereas liberals rely on subjective interpretations and personal freedom, leading to a morality that is inconsistent and human-centered. It claims that true morality is divinely ordained and intrinsic to reality, while ethics, created by humans, lack t...
The Apriorian Ministry 28.03.2025 16:15
Paul's epistle to the Romans and other New Testament passages highlight that faith is a gift from God, distributed unevenly among individuals. This distribution is part of God's divine plan, requiring believers to cultivate and strengthen their faith. The text emphasizes the relationship between faith and labor, suggesting that true faith is reflected in the value of one's work. The Ap...
Proposal For A Theocratic Party 25.03.2025 11:21
This production argues that heuristics, or simplified problem-solving methods, inherently support the principles of a free market by reducing operational costs and promoting direct consumer-to-provider transactions. It contrasts the free market's efficiency in job creation with more convoluted state interventions. Thus, the Theocratic Party, which advocates for the elimination of state mechani...
American People American Power 24.03.2025 12:53
The essay, American People American Power, examines the intricate dynamics between state power, property rights, and the relationship between rulers and the governed. It highlights how the state creates and mediates competing claims on resources, defines categories of ownership, and maintains control by regulating access to property. The state's power is rooted in its ability to withhold or gr...
The Church As Experiment 23.03.2025 13:07
The church as an experiment, demonstrates the distinction between the spiritual and material worlds. Trust, essential for personal relationships, professional success, and societal stability, involves reliability and confidence in others. Although science can measure physical reality, it fails when faced with faith. Trust, built through empathy, honesty, and effective communication, forms the foun...
How To Reconfigure Canada And America 22.03.2025 13:38
The concept of a single North American economic zone necessitates a free-market system where goods and services are priced based on labor inputs, devoid of state-imposed premiums, and governed by the labor theory of value. This essay is critical of the state's role in property rights and regulatory licencing, advocating for a theocratic approach where the church holds property for believers to...
Building A Theocratic Canada 20.03.2025 17:10

The Perfected Church 18.03.2025 9:03
This essay explores the balance between faith and works in Christianity, emphasizing that while works alone cannot bring salvation, faith without accompanying works is incomplete.

This community is free from parasitic behaviors, striving for perfection t...
The Trump Program In Broad Strokes 17.03.2025 12:40
Todays essay critiques both the right and left political ideologies, arguing that both sides fail to acknowledge the fundamental principle of divine ownership of the natural world. The right's belief in individual ownership and free markets overlooks God's creation, while the left's disregard for individual property rights does not extend to government regulation. Trump’s approach of d...
The Unforgivable Sin 16.03.2025 10:11
This essay explores the concept of the unforgivable sin, which is characterized as blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, emphasizing that true repentance and fear of having committed this sin are actually signs of the Holy Spirit's work. It underscores the importance of the church as the vehicle of salvation and the necessity of the Holy Spirit's presence for one's spiritual maturation an...
Proving A Theocracy Is A Perfect System 15.03.2025 14:45
A theocracy operates without physical coercion because its laws are intrinsic to the system, as exemplified by Jesus' fulfillment of the law in Matthew 5:17-20. In contrast to human exocratic systems, which are governed externally, God's creation is isocratic, where truth and morality are absolute. Sin, which harms oneself, and evil, which harms others, are detrimental to the success of in...
The End Of Cultural Relativism 14.03.2025 13:40
The author argues that a culture with lower taxes and crime is superior to cultures where social costs are high. He then posits that achieving this lower taxes and crime threshold, requires transitioning to a theocracy.

Proposition Of Universal Duality 13.03.2025 12:37

Stop History 12.03.2025 13:24
The concept of being set apart, or sanctified, is fundamental in Christian theology, emphasizing a distinct lifestyle and higher moral standards for believers. This transformation begins with accepting Jesus Christ, leading to a new, God-aligned nature. Christians' uniqueness is reflected in their adherence to love, compassion, and forgiveness as taught by Jesus, and their strong sense of comm...
No One is Good 02.03.2025 12:52
The church, as described, is the equity produced by good works, binding believers through ministry, much like a free market where precision is key. This binding normalizes relationships with friends and enemies, requiring an objective measure of value, unlike the worlds currencies, which are all asset based. The collective identity in Christ allows believers to transform from sinners to a unified,...
Apriorian The Worlds First Ministerial Church 27.02.2025 12:32
Christians ought to understand the importance of doing our best in all endeavors, avoiding both blatant and subtle forms of causing harm. The Christian principle of ministry is the way the church perfects believers. Ministry involves helping others reach their potential and binding them in spiritual maturity to the church.

Five What Ifs 25.02.2025 9:05

Too Much Missions But Too Little Ministry: A tale of two churches 21.02.2025 13:49
In this essay we argue that Christians have mistakenly focused on missions rather than ministry. Ministry should be used to help believers achieve spiritual maturity, rather suggesting that Christians have overly prioritized missions at the expense of focusing on ministry work that aids in the growth of faith.
Why Democracy Fails 20.02.2025 13:19
Democracy is inherently flawed and detrimental because it leads individuals to place their faith in the political process rather than in God. It claims that both left and right political arguments are weak and fail to convince the opposing side. The essence of democracy, which involves voting for change, inherently rejects divine guidance in favour of human governance. This reliance on politicians...
