LOGICAL MINDS ONLY

Society EN ↓ 1022 episodes

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 Logic cannot be rescinded, reconfigured or reformed.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.

The Two Questions Christians Never Ask 18.06.2023

There are two questions Christians do not ask and it is likely they are not asked because they do not wish to know the answer. Interestingly one cannot ask one without the other nor ask them together without having answered the questions. One question originates in Genesis and the other in Revelations.

How To Start A Business If All You have Is Ambition 14.06.2023

Progress is the result of specialization and specialization cannot exist without businesses that both permit people to focus single mindedly on one facet of the supply chain and gives them the ability to exchange the fruits of their labor with the products and services produce by other, similarly single-minded producers. So, any barrier to creating a business hurts us all. This podcast explains ho...

Apriorian Empiricism And The Natural Order 13.06.2023

There is a natural order to things that man desires to overcome by means of legal strictures and regulatory structures. But we cannot thrive going against what is natural, defined by what is empirically demonstrable. Life is ultimately an experiment, the Test Group are those willing to live empirically in a way that can be demonstrably validated, versus those who continue to live under the law.

The Apriorian Ten-Point Program To Empirically Justify Faith 12.06.2023

Is it possible to believe in God and follow Jesus and not have it impact our lives? If God Created the entire universe would denying this not have an impact also? If faith and doubt both have their own impacts are these only subjective? Does it not make any difference if you are an atheist or Christian to how you live and the kind of life you will have? If the impacts are not subjective, cannot th...

Perfectibility 12.06.2023

There is only one question Christian need answering. Are Christians perfectible, or not. If not, we are forever in our sin. If we are, it is through grace that we are saved but it is works that bring our perfection to fruition. But as reasonable as this sounds, it misleads us into a wrong kind of thinking that can easily lead to a loss of faith, and the erosion of whatever gains we had made.

Designing An Experiment To Prove The Existence Of God 11.06.2023

There is no need to prove the existence of God, which we need to question is our faith. The proof of God is not a test of God it is an investigation into our own integrity. Have we picked up our cross and are following Jesus, because without this step having been taken, God may as well not exist.

Metaphysical Secularism 07.06.2023

Secularists are considered adherents of naturalism. But this position is untenable when dealing with their own nature. No one thinks of himself as a meat machine. He cannot because machines do not think or identify themselves. We cannot even understand time and space as physical elements. What is physical somehow creates that which has no physicality.

The Logical Paradox Of The Logical Paradox 06.06.2023

If the world is logical and if truth exists, “logical paradox” as a term is an oxymoron. No statement ought to be both logical and paradoxical. So why do logical paradoxes exist? Or, do they?

Romans 12 Deciphered 03.06.2023

Romans is a summary of what it takes to build the church.

What Britain Did Right 03.06.2023

Britain’s success cannot be attributed to genetics or its geography. To put it another way, if Britain did not invent the tools of greatness, then the roots of Britain’s greatness were established from the beginning; 6000 years ago, in Eden, to be precise. If what Britain was and is, can be attributed to a one-off unique event never to be duplicated, this essay would be an exercise in jingoism, of...

Understanding The Difference Between Charity And Freeloading 01.06.2023

We are expected to help the needy but what do we do if the need is self-inflicted or even manufactured for the sole purpose of manipulating our help and our compassion? Is it still charity when we are being subjected to emotional blackmail by free loaders and parasites? At what point do we get to pass by on the other side? Apriorian is an experiment to demonstrate the superiority of the charitable...

Do You Hate Politics 30.05.2023

Politics is a process of transferring power and property to a central authority. The ballot box, divine rights, and martial prowess are all political processes that lead to the same result. Meritocracy is the alternative to democracy and these other forms of politics.

The Promise To Eliminate Taxation 29.05.2023

Taxation is made necessary by capitalism and capitalism cannot exist were it not for the regulatory power of the state. One cannot get rid of one without getting rid of the other. But getting rid of one is made to look impossible given the existence of the other. It is time to stop justifying the need for public spending because of private ownership and justifying private ownership because of the...

How To Build Houses And Stop Crime 28.05.2023

When the rights of labor are not respected the community becomes distorted, one of the worst systems of societal corruption is homelessness. Another sign that things are not right where you live, is crime. They are very different things but both share the same etiology and can be treated concurrently.

Apocratic Tax Reform 24.05.2023

Do you believe taxes are inevitable? In this short video Apriorian does not argue the point but does provide a path towards the disciplining of the public revenue program. Many municipalities provide options as to where ones property taxes go, this program can be extended with great benefit to the state and other levels of government.

The Line Between Good And Evil 23.05.2023

If there is no line between Good and Evil, there is no good and evil. If good and evil are relative concepts, neither one actually exists. But this world has a problem with absolutes. The best it can manage is better and best or better and worse. To conceive of something that is actually evil is beyond secularists. They know, if evil is proven to exist, there must be good also, and the only good w...

The Apocratic Church 21.05.2023

The Apocratic Church is a spiritual church built by works of faith. It has no physical correlates. It does not own property; it has no pews. It is simply an expression of the believer’s faith in his Creator. We are the stewards of His Creation, not the owners. If you are a mature Christian and ready to leave the Primary School version of a church, not to mention the demonic evils of democratic lib...

The Peculiarly American Problem 18.05.2023

The problems of America are not the problems of the rest of the world. This is an investigation in why the American Problem is peculiar to America.

Apocratics Versus Democratics 17.05.2023

There is only one question that all persons must ultimately answer, regardless of how they may seek to hide or avoid it. Where they stand or moral issues determines how they answer the question. This question is tied to our maturation and is only asked of adults and is the sole factor determining if a person is an adult or not. Incidentally, it is the question that confirms one is a Christian or a...

The War Against Religion 16.05.2023

Religions do not need a god in the Christian sense. Religions are ethical systems based on law. Religions require a law giver and a mechanism for enforcing the law. But the law is always enacted in a way that makes it unlawful to oppose the law. The more authoritarian the system the more draconian the punishment for offending the law. Treason and apostasy is where the lawgivers legitimacy is quest...

Money As An Illusion an introduction to the logistic church 13.05.2023

People want something to hold, when they give up their labor or other forms of property. To hold gold coins in their hands or paper currency, gave them a sense of security that they were not being defrauded. This understandable reticence to give up real property for an IOU seems reasonable. However, the fear and risk that makes the behavior understandable means we lack a formal economy. What we ar...

The Bible Versus Satan 12.05.2023

Evil cannot exist if reality is physical. Evil would need to be a malevolent physical force capable of impacting in a destructive way, physical things, if reality was as atheists claim it is. There fore, there is no evil or reality is not a sufficient explanation for all visible phenomena. The devil did convince man he does not exist, but convincing man physical reality was sufficient as an explan...

An Open Letter To Apathetic Christians 12.05.2023

Christians have given up on this system and seemingly, on the church. Christians appear to have given up on each other. Yet, there is no hope in this system of things or succor from those who are frenziedly attempting to pull down thousands of years of civilization. What hope is there and where can we find it?

The House Church Solution 10.05.2023

Christians are apathetic because they feel threatened by things they do not have an answer to. The government does not permit honest discussion and the problem and so it seems impossible to come to any agreement as what ought to be done. But this is just one more case of God proving how powerful He is. There is a simple solution but it is technical and its specifications are defined by God. His de...

Conceptualizing The War As Faith Versus Fear 08.05.2023

We fight not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers and spiritual wickedness in the highest places is evidence we fight against a conception of things which is intrinsically destructive. But if faith is the spirit of the faithful, what is the spirit of evil? In this essay the argument is put forward that evil is energized by fear. Fear is inherently a top down power used by...
