Reflections XI - Elitist Malfeasance

A wealth tax is a particular moral evil in that one is further burdening those in the population who are in the best position to create further societal wealth growth.

Most political rhetoric is at most two steps removed from egregious failure for it driven by short terming thinking that stumbles at the earliest roadblock.

It is not difficult to generate bad ideas which, is why they proliferate in the global milieu.

Collectivisms eventual aim is to create an equality of nothings. In this regard it is remarkably effective.

Western Society is in decline as it undervalued its greatest resource – the sanctity of its own population.

The elites need an army of foot soldiers to fight against their greatest enemy – the working and middle class. If the numbers are not there they will build the regiments with imports

My beliefs

I believe ….

1.That there is a God who transcends space and time. (I call it God for want of a name although I personally prefer the Kabbalistic term Ein Sof).

2. That it is impossible to know the nature of God. It cannot be truly defined.

3. That the universe operates according to the Laws of Physics. Life evolved through a combination of natural selection, genetic drift and other selection pressures acting on a genome whose variation arose as a consequence of mutation.

4. That God can intervene but such intervention is undetectable and does not contravene the laws of physics. God is a subtle actor who presents no evidence of understandable design.

5. That an agnostic position on a personal God makes sense.

6. That revealed religion are merely man made attempts at trying to understand God and although some carry the wisdom of earlier thought they are all inherently flawed.

7. That humans need to develop their own moral code based on reason, logic and the collective thinking of what has worked in the past.

8. That some religious customs may serve a purpose with respect to group cohesion but they need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

9. That God is a minimalist in action but not a disinterested party.

10. That the afterlife is unknowable.

11. That skepticism and the scientific method are the best tools we have in understanding the world.
