LOGICAL MINDS ONLY

The Scientific Proof Of God has always been something of an oddity within the fields of science. Atheists do not think it is possible to prove the existence of God anymore than it is to prove the existence of Santa, scientists generally do not think experiments to prove the existence of God are fundable or will lead to tenure and Christians often consider it a redundant exercise. But these reactio...

Mankind is a category that encompasses all human beings but if one group has duties to another group the concept is fractured. It is only when we eliminate duty that man as category of being, emerges. If our humanity is to have priority over incidentals, we cannot permit incidentals to divide us. My rights cannot be permitted to erode your humanity under the burden of a duty. A duty cannot superse...

The following discussion is metaphysical, ontological and epistemological. It discusses what can be known and what can exist. The author begins by claiming there is a class or category of thing that is knowable. If a class of things are not knowable, this class of things cannot fulfill the conditions of existence. God is the only knowable thing and the only thing that fulfills all the conditions o...

What was the original sin and how does it impact us today? What was Eden? Was it a physical place on earth and if it was what was this tree Adam and Eve were not to eat from? What is the meaning of all of this and why would the Bible tell us: Eph. 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against s...

What has the least protection under the law and why?

Inflation and economic development cannot be understood if we do not understand there are two distinct classes of money. Inflation and all our other social ills are attached to only one sort of money. If the money you use is manufactured, if you can hold it, touch it, the money in use is a commodity manufactured and issued for a profit. If you can lose this money, if it can be stolen, eroded in va...

Two things economists got wrong. The market does not have to produce profits and neither the private or the public sector has a legitimate claim to anything that exists on earth. But if economists have ever been so wrong that they would have won a gold medal had being wrong been an Olympic contest it is in the way they talk about money. Money is not a thing. It cannot be created out of assets. The...

It is an absurdity to claim Peter is the head of the church or the rock upon which the body of Christ is built. The author systematically goes through all the Scripture that contradicts the one possible interpretation that supports the Catholics position. 

There can only be one or two realities, there cannot be less or more. The contest then is between these two possible scenarios, only one of which can be right. The one-reality scenario is a claim there is only one reality and it contains all possible qualifications other than the belief truths are absolutes and metaphysical statements are valid. The one-reality hypothesis contradicts itself. If tr...

It is easy to assume there is but one reality, we see it all around us, yet it has small significance for humankind. Our reality plays in our heads and in the things we devise and build. There is little in nature that has value for us without extensive modification. Think of a house and the raw materials compared to the home we live in. But even houses with no people is a different reality to a su...

It is easy to spend money. Economic development that relies on spending large sums of money create new businesses, but not necessarily the right business and certainly not sustainable businesses. As hard as it may be to finance a start up this is the easy part. Trailer Park Economics is the economics of poverty, it does not rely on the exceptional or the fortunate few. It is a model for the masses...

Does going Green mean eliminating humanity, technology or the tools of civilized living. Is human life incompatible with going Green? It is the opinion of this author that going Green has little or nothing to do with nature. Primitive cultures are not Greener than us, they are just less technically advanced than we are. To be Green has value for human civilization, but it does not preclude it. The...

The epidemic of violence in the US is an epidemic of hate. All crime is a desperate attempt to combat fear. The more horrendous the crime the deeper the fear. Without faith in the future there is no future, there is only fear. The less faith in the future, the greater the fear of the future. At some point fear of the future turns to a hatred of the future. Hate begets violence against what caused...

The community church is not a church in a community, the community church is the community believers occupy. The community church exists as an alternative community model to the conventional community of non-believers. They stand in opposition to one another; the one is not an institution or product of the other. They vie for the same space and the same ecological niche.

If the criminal is not reconciled, he remains a criminal. The justice system is unconcerned about reconciliation though they pay lip service to the idea of rehabilitation. But if the criminal was never reconciled, rehabilitation is an oxymoron and the process a waste of tax dollars.

There are two races and two realities, one is reconciled the other is in arrears. Civility is a process that leads to civilization through the means of reconciliation. Only when our accounts are balanced can civilization reach its apogee. All human issues can be traced back to an unreconciled account.

Children are dependents some people, even rich and powerful ones, remain that way. It is not just the vagabond that depends on the benevolence of others to provide his food and clothes, bankers, politicians, portfolio managers and their ilk are in the same boat. They produce nothing of value and certainly nothing that compensates the rest of us for what their existence costs the planet. The world...

Faith is not a feeling that pops up out of nowhere, for no reason and persists despite there being no justification for its persistence. Faith only exists where there is no risk. Faith is extremely fragile and easily destroyed, ask any jilted lover. In this video we look at the essential element that must exist for faith to arise and persist.

What is a citizen and in what way does being a citizen differ from being a subject?

Politics is the mob selecting a leader to give their will legitimacy. Thus, the popular leader will speak in terms of what his constituency deserves and has a right to. Politicians merely due what is right in the eyes of the mob without having to inconvenience the mob. The Mob gets its way without having to bother with riots. We need a better way.

The most normal thing anyone can do is believe the reality they see is real. It is not that we think what we see is always a perfect representation of what exists independent of our observation; we think that what we see is part of everything that exists. What is more, we think that all of the people we see are all part of one race of human beings. We have coined the term, The One-Reality Hypothes...

The Invisible Civil War is a war between church and state that no one sees, but it exists, and is visible in the conflicts that attract the attention of the daily news channels. Few understand the root of the visible wars in the spiritual war that continues between church and state.

There are two sources of authority in this world, one is the control of property the other is the control of information. Authoritarians and dictators control property. Civil Authorities control information. Authoritarians work from the assumption that might makes right and the end justifies the means. Civil Authorities are predicated on the idea that right makes might and the end will be defined...

Is a machine part of the animal kingdom? Can a machine be classified as an animal? Are humans’ part of the animal kingdom? If a machine thought and acted in the same way humans do and was aware of itself and was in everyway identical to a human being, other than being manufactured, would it be human? If so, then why would it not be part of the animal kingdom as you say humans are?

There is either one reality or two, no more and no less. The Two Reality Hypothesis may appear to make no sense to most people, but The One Reality Hypothesis disproves its own claims and is logically incoherent, which is why The Two Reality Hypothesis appears flawed to people who think reality is but one.
