What is man that man is human and can there be a new race of man?

The larger the population the more difficult it is to reduce the total amount of resources consumed per unit of time. So, why do so many nations that have a stable or declining birth rate promote immigration and green energy policies at the same time? Most nations believe the more people, the more prosperous the nation will be. The fear is that a decline in population will mean lowered standards o...

Modern peoples treat evil with a disdain that is interesting. We claim to be alarmed at mass shootings and those who begin wars, but the reactions have taken the form of a pantomime, politicians especially parody horror as they have always played out the actions of someone who is grief stricken. But how is a society ignorant of what evil is supposed to understand what good is? If we cannot recogni...

If human rights were a valid concept your neighbour would have a greater claim to something you own, than you do. What do you have to which others have the pre-eminent claim? If your answer is nothing; your neighbor has no rights and neither do you.

There are two classes of consciousness and these types of consciousness correspond to two races each with their own contrasting reality or world view. These consciousnesses cannot be reconciled. One wins victory over the other. There is no negotiated settlement. If you wonder what has led to the division in society it is the underlying reality of there being two different races with two divergent...

There are only two possible states for mankind to exist in. The common state is one of primitivism. The other is the state of civilization. Civilization is not defined by technology. Technological expertise is a symptom but not the cause of civilized living. Correlation does not indicate causation. To be civilized is to be civil. The community that permits incivility to happen without it having a...

What is hate and why do liberals obsess with what can never be more than a claim leveled against someone they hate? What is more hateful than to accuse someone of being a hater? Why do liberals do it and do it with such vehemence?

The problem is not that difficult to solve, if we stop lying to ourselves. The problem is not hate. Hate is an explanation from the perspective of the victim. It simply begs the question and yet in such a way that it prevents an answer. If we cannot blame the victim for the hate of the criminal, then we have no answer to the problem of mass shootings, at all. Hate only demonizes the criminal. It i...

The postulate of racism is a key component in the modern narrative, meant to help us understand historic and current events. As an explanatory concept it is fundamentally flawed and indeed condemned to worsen what it purports to study. But without a more sophisticated analytical tool, the destructive impact of the racism narrative is sure to increase.

Democracy is the goto concept whenever problems in the West get bad, there is a call for more democracy (whatever that means). What if the problems in the West were created by too much democracy? There is nothing dumber than a mob and yet the West has come to the conclusion that if the mob is given the right to vote, an unknown reserve of pure intellect will be tapped. What the majority decides is...

Apriorian is a theoretically perfect organization, it might be called a utopia, unlike utopias however, Apriorian does not deal in an abstract form of humanity. Given perfect human beings reform is unnecessary. Capitalism and Communism both would work perfectly given perfect human beings. It is sin that destroys frail systems. Given that humans will destroy anything they can exploit how does one c...

There is no victim without an oppressor. The general tendency is to blame oppressors for the existence of the victim, but what if the oppressor is the creation of the victim? Naturally, victims tell us we are not to blame the victim. Being the victim means we are blameless and 100% of the fault must lie elsewhere, if not with the oppressor himself then with society. Some might find the argument se...

How easy it is to have faith when one believes one’s faith cannot be judged? If faith is such a personal thing that it is between us and God, who can call us to account regarding our claim? What is easier than claiming to believe in God and claiming to repent and desire to serve God? If this is the price of admission, no wonder many join or have joined. What is a work in faith; something we do on...

How powerful are we as humans, what power do we really wield? Are we sufficient unto ourselves and so powerful in fact we change reality by the power of positive thinking and a determination to be what we will regardless of what objective reality tells us?

What is the difference between works of the flesh and the works of faith? There are two systems in this world, one we understand well, this is the system of laws and regulations, and things we must do to stay right with the powers that be. There are things we must do and things we must not do. There are authorities who observe and regulate us and ensure that the things we must do, are done, and th...

Men have been the authors of this world. The institutions and systems and practices were all the products of men. The influence of women, though immeasurable in some areas and meaningful on the individual level, were insufficient to change the character of our civilizations.

The ambivalence concerning the Alpha personality is best understood by dividing Alphas into two groups, one positive and the other negative. The true Alpha is a model of self-control, confidence and leadership, but there is a darker version that manipulates, exploits and is highly narcissistic.

A mission is a vision with a standardized measure of validation. Missions work must have a quantified measure of validation so that credits and debits are properly recorded. Missions build up the church by adding value to assets, without a clear accounting the process cannot proceed in a logical way. The church cannot be built without work and work cannot exist unless it adds value to the assets i...

There is a right and a wrong and the right is predictable and quantifiable. Those who choose right, choose what can be quantified and validated. The wrong way is chaotic and destructive and ultimately parasitic. Those who choose wrong do not create the means by which they can pay the costs they create; they must be subsidized. Therein lays the division we see in the world and the reason why left a...

Conservatives have a world view that cannot be adopted by liberals. This ought to be obvious but when conservatives opine about the division in society, the only way that this division can be eliminated is for conservatives to cease being conservatives. There is no path for liberals to adopt conservative values but there is also no way for conservatives to align with liberals without losing their...

Most people imagine a pharaoh when thinking of a theocracy, or the Vatican or perhaps Louis XIV. These are one form of theocracy but really, they are nothing more than leaders justifying their power by claims to Divine Intervention. But what does a church look like when formed as a body directly under the authority of God, without human intermediaries?

It may not be politically correct to identify a woman on the basis of her body, but the inability to define a woman by her physique, or job, or physiology may not mean there is no definition. The failure of biologists to define us using the taxonomic procedures used to define other taxa and species, may mean taxonomy is inadequate.

The state has a lot of good answers regarding the gun violence perpetuated by its subjects, including incarceration, capital punishment, and depriving us of our right to ownership and self-defence, it has no answers to its own violence perpetuated on its citizens. Society needs a solution that addresses the concerns of law-abiding citizens, not those of criminals or autocrats. The reader is asked...

The Apriorian Way is a scientific model for transitioning primitive places to civilized ones. The Apriorian algorithm establishes a clear and quantifiable way of defining a civilization and determining why civilizations are an advanced and preferable way of living. The only thing that might cause the reader to pause a moment, is finding out what civilization is.

Diversity is a key component of intersectional thinking. Democracies and eager to claim they are unreserved supporters of diversity. But it is one thing to claim this and incorporate highly diverse ideas and values into a policy platform. To be fully diverse is to be fully apathetic. Those who support everything support nothing. It is difficult to be diverse and democratic, when the majority voice...
