Gay marriage is "complicated and dangerous"

12:00 Marriage in different US states

In this video, *Paul VanderKlay* explores his thesis that embracing "marriage equality" acts as a "poison pill" for *Protestant* churches. He argues that this shift threatens the institutional vitality of these churches by undermining the traditional, archetypal ideal of one-man-one-woman marriage (9:00 - 3:12:36).

**Key themes include:**

* **Desire and Religion:** Drawing on *James Wellman Jr.*'s book *High on God*, *VanderKlay* posits that the desire for "emotional energy" is at the heart of religion (31:42 - 36:51). He discusses the *Durkheimian* concept of *homo duplex*—the tension between the individual and the collective—and how people use institutions to mirror their internal ideals (38:26 - 39:27).

* **The Role of Stories and Ideals:** Throughout the video, *VanderKlay* uses clips of *Jordan Peterson* in conversation (with *Danica Patrick* and *Jonathan Pageau*) to analyze how humans organize their lives around archetypal stories and ideals. He emphasizes that attention is a form of desire and a critical component in shaping how we perceive reality (1:22:33 - 1:23:36, 1:52:21 - 1:53:28).

* **Church Institutional Dynamics:** *VanderKlay* details the internal conflicts within the *Christian Reformed Church (CRC)* regarding the *Human Sexuality Report*, specifically noting how the move toward marriage equality triggers "purity dynamics" that he believes lead to institutional decay (21:50 - 23:25, 3:11:23 - 3:12:20).

*VanderKlay* acknowledges that his arguments are complex and "unfinished," inviting viewers to participate in the conversation by thinking through these nuanced intersections of theology, psychology, and church polity.

*Paul VanderKlay* focuses on *Protestant* churches primarily because of their unique structural and historical relationship with the state, the nation-state, and how they define and manage internal

Key reasons highlighted in the video include:

* **Church Polity and Authority:** *Protestant* denominations, such as the *Christian Reformed Church (CRC)* and the *Presbyterian Church (USA)*, often utilize decentralized or synodical governance. This makes them particularly susceptible to internal divisions when faced with modern social shifts like marriage equality (4:35-4:48, 24:06-24:35).

* **The Two-Speed Religion:** Drawing on *Charles Taylor's* concept of "two-speed religion," *VanderKlay* notes that *Protestantism* reconfigured the medieval balance of clergy and laity. He argues that the modern *Protestant* model relies on the nuclear family as a replacement for the monastery, making clergy behavior and marital ideals central to the institution's stability (22:48-23:06, 2:30:06-2:30:29).

* **The Quest for Ideals:** *VanderKlay* suggests that religions are sustained by communal striving toward archetypal ideals. He posits that *Protestant* institutional structures—which often default to literal interpretations of the Bible to resolve conflicts—struggle to navigate the shift away from the traditional, male-female model of marriage, which he views as a fundamental, archetypal ideal (30:00-30:49, 3:02:00-3:03:01).

**Sharia** protects lineage (*nasl*) as one of its five fundamental objectives (*Maqasid al-Shariah*), ensuring the preservation of family structure, identity, and social stability. This protection is achieved through strict regulations on marriage, the prohibition of adultery (*zina*) and fornication, and the ban on adoption that severs biological ties, thereby maintaining clear and unambiguous parentage.

Key mechanisms include:

* **Legal Punishments**: Imposing *hadd* punishments for adultery and slander (*qazf*) to deter acts that corrupt lineage or falsely accuse individuals.

* **Family Law**: Mandating marriage for legitimate reproduction and requiring children to be attributed to their biological father, prohibiting claims to other lineages.

* **Inheritance Rights**: Distributing wealth according to fixed Quranic shares to ensure financial security for all legal heirs, preventing the deprivation of rightful family members.

* **Prohibitions**: Banning abortion and infanticide to protect unborn life and future generations, and forbidding the mixing of lineages through illegitimate relationships.

1:08:00 Christianity in America is 3000 square miles wide and three inches deep.

In his cultural and historical critiques, Catholic author E. Michael Jones argues that the American frontier system—driven by an "English Protestant operating system" of capitalism and legal bureaucracy—stripped Daniel Boone of his lifestyle, land, and foundational sense of religious order. [1]

Jones uses Daniel Boone as a historical paradigm to contrast Catholic and Protestant/Calvinist frameworks of settlement, expansion, and "Logos" (rational or divine order): [1]

The Conflict of Operating Systems: Jones posits that America's expansion was built on an English Protestant/Calvinist framework, which he equates with state-sponsored capitalism and rigid legalism. He contrasts this with French and Spanish Catholic colonization, which relied on sacramental frameworks and assimilation (such as intermarriage with Native Americans). [1]

Displacement by "Law": According to Jones, Boone lived by an organic relationship to the land based on exploration and survival. However, as the newly independent United States established its legal and economic framework, Boone was systematically stripped of his land claims by lawyers, speculation, and complex titling systems. Jones argues that this aggressive legalistic capitalism effectively "took away" the simple, frontier-based communal order Boone lived by. [1, 2]

Loss of the "Sacred Wilderness": Jones argues that the American system reduced nature and human life to mere transactions, commodities, and contracts. For Boone—who was raised in a fractured Quaker background and later held highly individualized Christian beliefs—the imposition of this aggressive, secularized capitalistic system displaced the religious and natural harmony he sought on the frontier. Boone ultimately fled the United States entirely, moving to Spanish (Catholic) controlled Missouri in 1799 to escape the American system. [1, 2, 3, 4]

"And if you obey most of those upon the earth, they will mislead you from the way of Allah. They follow nothing but assumption, and they do nothing but lie [or speculate]." [1]

Surah Yunus (10:36)

"And most of them follow not except assumption. Indeed, assumption avails not against the truth at all. Indeed, Allah is Knowing of what they do." [1]

Surah Yunus (10:66)

“Those who invoke others beside Allah, associating them with Him in His divinity, only follow conjectures and are merely guessing.” [1]

Surah Al-Hujurat (49:12)

"O you who have believed, avoid much [negative] assumption. Indeed, some assumption is sin. And do not spy or backbite each other..." [1]

Surah Al-Isra (17:36)

"And do not pursue that of which you have no knowledge. Indeed, the hearing, the sight, and the heart—about all those [one] will be questioned." [1]

Surah An-Najm (53:23)

"They follow nothing but assumption and what their souls desire, yet there has already come to them guidance from their Lord." [1]

2026-10-23T17:53:34.755+01:00

10:00 CLAIRE KHAW joins.

1:00 Who is "we"? Americans already have a unique national narrative of being an exceptional nation. Is this not enough?

5:00 It's not just children who want a happy ending, is it, Jews, Christians and Muslims?

6:00 Islamists promote endless war? Isn't this a neocon projection?

7:00 Science and philosophy are two different branches of learning. Only Christians want to "own" Jesus. Jews curse his name. Muslims deny the divinity of Jesus. When you say "own" Jesus, do you mean "insist the Trinity is true and must be worshiped"?

15:00 I ignore the stories and concentrate on what are believed to be the laws of God. Whether or not the Messiah comes in our lifetimes, we still have to avoid mortal sin to get to heaven. If you don't believe in the afterlife, you are functionally atheist.

16:00 It is easy to defeat the dystopian narrative of Nick Land.

20:00 You are not asking the right question, are you? Are we supposed to expect heaven on earth in our lifetimes or are we supposed to believe in the afterlife?

23:00 Don't Americans know that Hollywood movies are not divine prophecy?

25:00 Jews will say the Sabbath is for Jews.

27:00 The Koran - which Islamophobic Christians refuse to read - show a friendlier side of the Abrahamic God.

We already know Nathan is not a confirmed Christian. Does he even believe in the afterlife? If he does not, he is functionally atheist.

38:00 God said He creates evil in Isaiah 45:7. He never promised us a rose garden. Only atheists persistently pretend that God in fact promised us a rose garden and then base their atheism on God not giving us that rose garden, which is intellectually dishonest. In which verse did God promise us all a rose garden and heaven on earth?

39:00 The Abrahamic God who forbade idolatry and blasphemy expects obedience. Christians persist in worshiping an executed blasphemer as His co-equal. Jews and Muslims remain too cowardly to correct them.

46:00 Would you agree that the Gospel of Jesus is not anything written by Paul who never met Jesus? The Jefferson Bible acknowledges this.

47:00 The future has to be a moral and religious ruling class of a moral and religious people not ignoring the advice of George Washington's farewell speech and American philosophers asking whether America is one nation under God and whether Americans in general satisfy the condition of being a moral and religious people when they have no functioning moral system that has codified principles in their liberal democracy which is not a theocracy.

49:00 Rapture hysteria is just mass hysteria. This happens when too many people "chase the woo" as Ron Copperman - the Chief Priest of TLC known for receiving prayer requests - does.

50:00 Western imperialism is Christian imperialism.

52:00 It's always darkest before dawn. Things have to get worse before they get better.

Another dumb movie that is being treated by Brett as some kind of divine prophecy.

54:00 Christians are intellectually more credulous or dishonest than Jews or Muslims.

57:00 Why does Nathan call American imperialism "American theology"?

57:45 North America represents Protestantism, South America represents Catholicism. Both have failed.

58:00 What does Nathan mean when he says "American Christianity"?

1:06:00 UBI will produce more confirmed bachelors and gay men.

1:15:00 Trump was trying to bring factories back to America.

1:16:00 The arms manufactures don't even do their job properly as Americans are now beginning to see from the fact that Russia, China and Iran have pretty good missiles.

1:34:00 Doug Wilson on the expansion of Christianity

1:43:00 Julian the Apostate

2:28:00 How exactly would sharia "annihilate humanity"?

2:29:00 Why are you always saying Jesus did this and Jesus did that like he is coming imminently to solve all your problems when you don't even believe in the afterlife?

2:33:00 Even Jews and Muslims can be guilty of hidden idolatry.

2:37:00 What about idolatry don't Christians understand? Don't they already know that the Abrahamic God forbade idolatry and blasphemy in His Commandments? Don't they know that anthropomorphism is idolatry and a mortal sin? If so, why don't they give a damn? I have concluded that it must be because they are only pretending to believe in the afterlife and worship the Trinity which makes them hypocrites. Being atheists, they would not care that hypocrisy a mortal sin according to the Koran.

2:49:00 Cakewalk

2:51:00 Your prayer closet would be roughly the dimensions of a prayer mat.

The standard dimensions for an adult prayer mat are typically 60 cm x 110 cm (approximately 24 inches x 43 inches), though sizes often range from 110–125 cm in length and 65–75 cm in width to accommodate full prostration and shoulder width.

Standard Adult: 110 cm x 70 cm (43 x 27 in) is the most common size, fitting most adults up to 5'10".

Tall Adults: Individuals over 5'10" or those preferring extra space often use mats measuring 120 cm x 70 cm (47 x 28 in) or larger.

Travel/Compact: Smaller mats for portability are typically 100 cm x 60 cm (39 x 24 in) or 115 cm x 65 cm.

Children: Youth-sized mats are generally 45 cm x 75 cm (18 x 30 in).

Large Congregational: Rolls for mosques can extend to 4 feet x 16 feet (48 x 192 in) to fit multiple worshippers.

2:53:00 No pain, no game.

It's sad to be American men who don't take their religion seriously. All they have to bond with each other is their taste in music and fake Hollywood narratives they have enjoyed.

11:06 AM

It is just a social fact that Americans take their American identity more seriously than any religion they claim to have.

They think that God necessarily must forever have known every evil thought and action of his creatures

11:26 AM

@anselman3156 Don't Christians believe that God is omniscient?

11:27 AM

@anselman3156

true omnisience is knowing what is. not knowing from all eternity whatever will be

11:27 AM

Maybe Scott surrounds himself with people who don't know because he doesn't want to be leader while he is pretending to be one of the people who don't know, but I know he does.

11:28 AM

@anselman3156

it is lazy to rhyme off attributes like omniscience and read into them presuppositions rather than precisely examining them

you have not thought deeply on the question of how God knows the choices of creatures to whom he gives agency

11:31 AM

@anselman3156 Do you claim to know?

11:32 AM

The Hebrew scriptures at least contain the truth that God learns his creatures' intentions by observation of creatures' minds and hearts

@ZuluScout Utterly contemptible.

The most powerful deity conceivable would be perfectly moral and omnibenevolent

2026-10-21T01:38:37.383+01:00

Joshua 24:15

But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.”

Worshiping the most powerful deity conceivable would make perfect sense, if you care about that sort of thing.

10:00

1 John 4:8 states: "Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."

Micah 6:8 is a foundational biblical verse that summarizes God's requirements for humanity, stating: "He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."

The Quran does not explicitly state that "God is love" in the theological sense found in the Christian Bible (1 John 4:8). Instead, Islamic texts describe God's love as *conditional* and **reciprocal**, distinct from an unconditional, inherent nature.

* *Divine Attributes**: The Quran identifies God as **Al-Wadud* (the All-Loving) and *Ar-Rahman* (the Most Merciful). While Al-Wadud appears in verses like 85:14, it signifies a loving disposition rather than an ontological identity of "God is love."

* **Conditional Love**: God’s love (*hub*) is reserved for those who perform good deeds, are patient, repent, or trust in Him. Conversely, the Quran states God does not love oppressors, arrogant people, or evil-doers.

* *Universal Mercy vs. Specific Love**: The Quran distinguishes between *rahma (compassion/mercy), which encompasses all creation unconditionally, and hub (love), which is a special divine favor granted to believers and those who obey God.

11:00 It is unrealistic to expect unconditional love.

16:00 To serve the God of the Amorites is to be an idolater.

19:00 To say that God is everywhere means you are a pantheist or panentheist which offends against the Third Principle of Judaism.

21:00 A God of Justice is superior to a God of Love.

Communism is just a modern term for "peasant rebellion"

Claire, let’s let Ron give us his reasons for blocking you.

12:26 PM

@OOOTLAM

@stefaniecristos8514 Because I call him out for "chasing the woo" and mock his pathetic attempts at a power grab in TLC.

@OOOTLAM

I never even quarrelled with Ron.

Also, did you challenge MDP’s statement that “God is love” is sufficient for him? I’d like that unpacked some more. It seems like a very incomplete theology to me.

Marx was brilliant and whether yku think he was "successful" depends on whether you measure his life personally, his political activism, or his intellectual and historical legacy.

what iften gets smeared as Marxism is not synonymous with Marx's ideas themselves

I was not talking about Marx’ success, but rather the wellbeing of people under communism vs. other forms of gov’t

12:55 PM

@stefaniecristos8514

Are you saying his ideas were just not implemented correctly?

12:57 PM

@MarkS.-ry7bm

marx was conscious of this, Engels wrote much about early Christianity being a type of proto communism

12:58 PM

@ZuluScout

I was simply acknowledging his genius w/o saying what I thought about his ideas per se. he was a very complex thinker and like most erudites went over the heads of most observers

12:59 PM

@stefaniecristos8514

People generally equate Marx with the atrocities of communist gov’ts.

Progressive ideologies promote Utopia. Probably, we will never get to a workers' heaven because of the Fall of Man in Genesis.

The statements regarding pain in childbirth and hard labor appear across two adjacent verses in the Book of Genesis: [1]

Pain in Childbirth: Found in Genesis 3:16, where God tells the woman that He will greatly increase her pain and suffering during childbearing. [1, 2]
Work and Toil from the Ground: Found in Genesis 3:17–19, where God tells Adam that the ground is cursed and that he will eat food through painful toil and the sweat of his brow all the days of his life. [1, 2]

1:23:00 Liberalism, Nationalism and Socialism were attempts by European intellectuals to fill in the political vacuum after the fall of Christendom AKA the end of the Age of Monarchy.

There will be Matrimonial Relations Classes to be given by people who are both married and divorced for extra fun.

8:00 Idolatry is not going to help you restore the patriarchy, Americans. I have a solution that will be in keeping with the narrative that America is the exceptional and indispensable nation once Americans properly understand the motives of the Founding Fathers.

10:00 Porn actresses make more money than porn actors.

In the mainstream adult film industry, female performers generally earn more per scene than male performers. This is a notable exception to the gender wage gap found in most other sectors.

Female Pay: Average rates range from $700 to $1,000 for standard heterosexual scenes, with top-tier stars earning $1,500 to $4,000+ depending on the act and popularity.

Male Pay: Average rates are significantly lower, typically between $300 and $1,200 per scene, with superstars occasionally reaching $1,500.

Key Difference: Women’s pay is highly variable based on the specific acts performed (e.g., anal or double penetration command higher fees), whereas men are often paid a fixed flat rate per scene or day regardless of the act.

Longevity Trade-off: While women earn more per scene, male actors often have longer careers and can work more frequently, which can offset the per-scene disparity over time.

12:00 Cringe is the antithesis of cool.

16:00 A political economy running under the principles of sharia would allow most men to earn an honest living capable of supporting a family.

33:00 It's not something women do. I guess these flashers are saying "Here, look at my junk because no woman will."

35:00 White genocide is caused by white men and white women refusing to support the abolition of no fault divorce.

38:00 Waiting for boomers to die

TFL

**True Forced Loneliness** (TFL) is a subculture within the **manosphere** that originated in 2008 as a YouTube vlogging community. It is characterized as a synthesis of **incel** and **MGTOW** (Men Going Their Own Way) ideologies, consisting primarily of involuntary celibates who reject serious relationships with women.

Key characteristics of TFL include:

* **Philosophy**: Members often blame societal factors or female superficiality for their dating struggles, viewing women as inherently shallow. This aligns with the **black pill** fatalism found in some incel communities.

* **Demographics**: Historically centered around older YouTube vloggers (Bill Greathouse, Dwayne Holloway, and Steve Hoca), modern TFLers tend to be non-white and use poorer recording techniques compared to mainstream incel vloggers.

* **Distinction from Incels**: While many young TFLers now use the terms interchangeably, traditional TFLers often lean toward a **MGTOW** perspective, preferring vlogging over forum-based activism and exhibiting less overt hatred toward women compared to the broader incelosphere.

* **Terminology**: The term is sometimes conflated with other internet acronyms like "Thanks For Looking," but in this specific context, it refers exclusively to this online community.

47:00 Normies mock incels.

50:00 Female power is linked to the supply of eggs and the over-supply of sperm.

51:00 You need to change the rules regulating gender relations. The main component regulating gender relations is marriage.

52:00 George Washington warned against political parties but I just can't get Americans to care that he said that. Is it because Americans don't even respect God, let alone their own Founding Fathers whom they will call "dead white men"?

1:50:00 There are dietary implications of living under a matriarchy.

2:09:00 Normie married men are too afraid to even discuss the principle of the abolition of no fault divorce. Hell, I know a divorced man who is a retired divorce lawyer and won't discuss the abolition of no fault divorce. The fear and moral apathy is bone deep and visceral.

2:16:00 White people don't have a functioning moral system with codified principles that support the patriarchy. For some reason, they won't listen to me explain why that is bad a thing.

White genocide is caused by white people not understanding their own history and refusing to hear it from me because I am not white.

2:17:00 Happy to explain why Christian Nationalism is dead in the water.

2:18:00 Can any Christian define who is Christian and state what principles Christians have?

2:19:00 Everyone is going to understand the nature and purpose of religion and the least it should be doing for your religious group: support the patriarchy. If it no longer does that, take it out with the trash. The Europeans have. Europeans with a better understanding of the failure of Christendom and a worse experience would never adopt Christian Nationalism. Americans who don't understand the burned and bloody history of Christianity and apparently have no ancestral memory of the Wars of the Reformation just don't get it. I am happy to explain though.

2:23:00 You can always reintroduce slavery.

2:30:00 Maybe I'll be the next "minor celebrity" here.

2:39:00 You could talk to a bunch of white normies in TLC - an internet community created by Paul Vanderklay who had a brief brush with the now defunct Jordan Peterson and is white, American and Calvinist, or you could talk to me though I am not white, not American and not Christian.

2026-10-19T16:05:39.874+01:00

Megan still won't define her terms.

https://radicalisedrabbi.blogspot.com/2026/10/catholic-woman-admits-she-is-nihilist.html

https://radicalisedrabbi.blogspot.com/2026/10/matriarchy-is-mediocrity-because-men-in.html

Megan's message to me on 17 October:

I’m glad you feel it’s useful to use your platform to complain about my admitted shortcomings and the way I question the world

I am however curious how people (from your perspective) are suppose to learn and question terms without already being certain of themselves and these specific terms

Where does the nuance of “not knowing yet” come into play? Or do you believe we are supposed to more from certainty to certainty?

And is not being certain immature and childish in your opinion? Is that a cop out?

And lastly, if you are already defining me regardless of what I have explicitly said I haven’t defined, are you not then making it first my responsibility to disagree with your ability to interpret and listen and then simultaneously asking you to interpret and listen to the actual explanation? Which seems to be something you haven’t been able to do yet.

I’m unsure how to answer your questions because you actually are not asking the next necessary question, because you are assuming many leaps between.

My response to her:

Thank you for getting back to me on this.
We are both questioning the world and the people around us, hopefully in a constructive way.
As someone interested in philosophy, I question how people use words.
Do people know what they are saying?
You say nothing can be known for sure.
It has been said that in life, we can only be certain of death and taxes.
But that’s hardly a moral conviction. Examples of moral conviction:
There should be a law against murder, theft, committing sexual offences etc.
If you have a moral conviction that these laws are necessary, then you would be prepared to discuss them. If you’re not certain, then you wouldn’t.
Brett isn’t prepared to argue about the Trinity with me because it’s not a moral certainty, just a dogma he has to affirm in order to claim to be a Trinitarian Christian.
I’m certain that Judaism and Islam forbid idolatry and that I have seen many idols of Jesus and Mary in the churches I have visited.
I was hoping you would state a moral conviction or two or even define a term or two as you say you make a point of defining terms.
Yes, I am driven crazy by TLC who have no moral convictions they would like to define or declare.
Maybe that is fundamentally the problem when no one seems to know what a moral conviction is and don’t care.
People are supposed to learn by asking questions and their question must at least be grammatically correct containing a subject and verb.
Can you give an example of what is sustainable but not right?
Can you give an example of what is unsustainable but right?
What do you mean by sustainable?
When you say right, do you mean moral?
When you say moral, do you just mean legal or Catholic or neither?
The question has to make sense to be answered properly.
If you cannot make it make sense, then the question is not ready to be asked, nor that it stopped anyone from rambling on.
Surely you have some moral convictions you’re prepared to declare or define.
Otherwise, you’re just being like Bison who says again and again that nothing can be known for certain and because of that, nothing need be done.
Are you really saying you have no moral convictions?
What are you uncertain about?
Which of my certainties do you question?
It seems impossible for you to be more specific, but I am certain I heard you say that you are known for defining your terms.
If you could try to answer my questions, perhaps we can move forward and make this exchange have a takeaway point someone can understand and agree or disagree with.
I have no idea what you mean by “the next necessary question”. Necessary for what?

Socratic questioning on Secular Koranism with Israeli Characteristics with @AdarWeinreb

2026-10-18T11:02:12.170+01:00

1. Is Israel an American colony?

2. Do Jews have an official religious leader? (Catholics can say they have a Pope and Episcopalians can say they have an Archbishop of Canterbury.)

Secular Koranism with Israeli Characteristics makes a one-state solution possible.

3. Why isn't Israel a constitutional republic?

4. Why don't religious Jews care that they don't have an official religious leader?

5. Who divided Jews into Haredim, Masortim, Datim and Hilonim?

6. Are Hilonim higher status than Haredim?

7. Why are Hilonim higher status than Haredim?

8. As far as God is concerned, are only the Haredim kosher?

9. What does it say about Jewry if three of the four groups are in fact heretics?

10. Isn't the Koran is arguably Zionist?

11. If the Koran is arguably Zionist, then the only problem with Jews living in the Holy Land is whether they should live in a theocracy, isn't it?

12. Aren't the Arabs the proletariat of Israel?

13. What does it say about the viability of Christian Zionism if Israelis have to keep mowing the lawn to keep the numbers of Muslims comfortably low necessitating their replacement with non-Arabs?

14. Isn't Israel run on the principles of Christian Zionism?

15. Are Jews the mascot of Uncle Sam?

16. Do Jews have an accountable and principled leader?

17. What explains increasing numbers of Jews dissociating themselves from Zionism?

18. Is atheism a moral system?

19. Why don't Jews ask for a codified constitution if they are so smart?

20. If Jews are not smart enough to ask for a constitutional republic, are they stupid?

21. Is there an attempt to lower the voting age to 17 in Israel?

22. If there is an attempt to lower the voting age, does this mean the government doesn't think there are enough stupid voters around?

23. Why does the government want more and more stupid voters around?

24. Aren't Muslims the workforce of Israel?

10:00 Female Attorney General can veto legislation from the Knesset.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

The Israeli Attorney General does not have an independent constitutional right to veto legislation. However, under the traditional legal framework that existed prior to recent reforms, the Attorney General’s office effectively functioned as a "gatekeeper" with significant veto-like power over government policy and bills.

Key aspects of this dynamic included:

Binding Legal Opinions: The Attorney General was considered the authorized interpreter of the law for the executive branch. Their legal opinions were binding on government agencies and ministries, meaning they could block or delay the advancement of government bills or decisions deemed illegal or procedurally improper.

Directive Power: The Attorney General issued directives (such as Directive 2018) that could prevent government bills from even reaching the cabinet for discussion if they violated legal standards.

Recent Legislative Changes: Controversial bills passed by the Knesset in 2026 have drastically weakened this role. The new law makes the Attorney General’s legal opinions non-binding on the government, allowing ministers to disregard legal advice if they deem it inconsistent with existing law. It also removes the Attorney General’s exclusive authority to represent the state in court, further eroding their ability to block government actions.

Critics of the old system argued this gave unelected jurists "unparalleled powers" and acted as a veto over elected officials, while supporters maintained it was a vital safeguard for the rule of law and public interest in a system with limited checks and balances. The current legal status is defined by the 2026 reforms, which strip the office of its previous binding authority.

12:00 Israel functions on the Doctrine of Parliamentary Supremacy which means that the Knesset or the Israeli Supreme Court has the rights of an absolute monarch over Israeli citizens.

REFORM OF THE ISRAELI SUPREME COURT

The core components of the 2023 Israeli judicial reform have not been enacted because the Supreme Court of Israel struck down the initial "reasonableness" bill in January 2024 as unconstitutional. While the government passed a law limiting the court's power to declare government decisions "unreasonable," the High Court of Justice ruled against it in the case HCJ 5658/23 Movement for Quality Government in Israel v. Knesset, effectively nullifying that specific pillar of the overhaul.

However, the conflict over judicial authority has evolved into a constitutional crisis regarding judicial appointments and potential new reforms:

Appointment Deadlock: Justice Minister Yariv Levin blocked the appointment of Yitzhak Amit as President of the Supreme Court for 15 months, violating court orders. Amit was eventually sworn in in February 2025 after a unanimous High Court decision forced Levin to convene the Judicial Selection Committee.

New Reform Proposals: In January 2025, Levin and Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar presented a new compromise proposal to alter the Judicial Selection Committee. This plan would lower the supermajority required for Supreme Court appointments from seven to five votes and remove the veto power of independent judges, shifting power to political appointees.

Current Status: This new proposal was passed and is set to apply as law beginning with the next Knesset after the 2026 elections, marking a significant shift toward greater political control over the judiciary, distinct from the failed 2023 legislative strategy.

The confirmation ceremony did not start as a separate event; it originated in the early Church (1st to 3rd centuries) as part of a single, unified rite of Christian initiation (Baptism, anointing/laying on of hands, and the Eucharist) performed together for adult converts. [1, 2]

Catholic Church

Unified Beginning (1st–4th Century): In the early centuries, baptism, the laying on of hands (the root of confirmation), and first communion were given all at once during the Easter Vigil by the bishop. [1, 2]
Separation (5th–6th Century): As Christianity spread to rural areas and infant baptism became common, local bishops could no longer attend every baptism. To preserve the bishop’s role in completing initiation, the anointing and laying on of hands were delayed and became a separate ceremony. [1]
Term and Codification: The term confirmatio appeared by the mid-5th century (used by figures like Leo the Great and Faustus of Riez), and it evolved through the Middle Ages into a distinct sacrament of the Latin (Roman Catholic) Church. [1, 2, 3]

Anglican Church (Church of England)

Reformation Continuity and Adaptation (16th Century): The Anglican Church inherited the practice from the Western Catholic tradition. During the English Reformation, Anglicanism demoted confirmation from its status as a strict gospel sacrament (classifying it instead as a "lesser" or pastoral rite), while retaining the historic order of bishops and the laying on of hands. [1, 2, 3]
Evolution: The Church of England established its own distinct liturgical framework for confirmation in the early Book of Common Prayer, transforming it into a moment for baptized individuals (often adolescents) to publicly confirm their baptismal vows after catechism. [1, 2, 3]

1:00 Is Megan admitting to nihilism?

1:00 No example given, no example asked.

2:00 So you're basically saying you have no convictions?

2:45 Can you give an example of what is sustainable regardless of morality? Are you basically admitting that you are a nihilist?

3:00 You can only be righteous if you have principles. What are your principles? If you're saying your principles are Catholic principles, what are Catholic principles? If you're saying your principles have nothing to do with Catholicism, are you in fact admitting that you are a nihilist who has no principles because you are not sure about anything and are suspicious of people who have moral convictions? Do you know what a moral conviction is? If there is no answer, I will assume that you have none, making you a nihilist, as I suspected all along. All people claiming to be Christians do not really worship the Trinity. So why do they claim to be Christian? It is just the Religion of Mum and Dad. Why would anyone pretend to be Christian if they don't have Christian beliefs and don't care to discuss the Trinity? Is it because they think it is too hot a topic to discuss or because they are actually bored by the whole thing?

3:00 What is "it"?

The most common term for someone who doubts everything is a *skeptic* (or *sceptic* in British English), defined as a person who habitually doubts accepted beliefs and requires evidence before accepting truth.

Other specific terms depend on the nature of the doubt:

* **Doubting Thomas**: Someone who refuses to believe anything until they see physical proof themselves.

* **Cynic**: Someone who is skeptical of human sincerity and generally distrusts others' motives.

* **Pyrrhonian**: A pedantic term for a skeptic who doubts everything, including the possibility of knowing any truth.

* **Denialist**: A person who rejects established facts or evidence despite strong proof to the contrary.

Is this what you are confessing to, Megan - Are you basically saying that you have no moral convictions?

Joseph Albo separated the core beliefs of Judaism from peripheral ones

2026-10-14T23:57:11.667+01:00

**Joseph Albo**, a key Jewish delegate at the **Disputation of Tortosa (1413–1414)**, formulated the three root principles of Judaism in his work *Sefer ha-Ikkarim*, which was written following the disputation. These three fundamental beliefs, which he argued are necessary for divine law to exist, are:

* **Belief in the existence of God**

* **Belief in revelation** (that the Torah is the word of God)

* **Belief in divine retribution** (which includes the immortality of the soul)

While Albo participated in the disputation against the Christian convert **Geronimo de Santa Fe**, his specific formulation of these three roots and their derivative "branches" was developed to define the essential dogmas of Judaism distinct from other faiths.

To clarify the terminology from my previous answer, Joseph Albo's system in *Sefer ha-Ikkarim* actually has **three** hierarchical levels, like a tree:

## The 8 Derivative Principles (*Shorashim*)

These are logically necessary consequences of the three roots. Denying any of them constitutes **heresy**:

## The 6 Branches (*Anafim*)

These are obligatory dogmas of **lesser** status — denying them is a **sin**, not heresy, since the "tree" of Judaism can stand without them:

1. Creation *ex nihilo*

2. The supremacy of Moses' prophecy

3. The immutability of the Torah

4. The possibility of attaining human perfection through the performance of a single commandment

5. The resurrection of the dead

6. The coming of the Messiah

So the key distinction: the *shorashim* are indispensable to the existence of divine law itself, while the *anafim* are particular to Judaism specifically but can be "pruned" without destroying the trunk.

The three root principles (*ikkarim*) in Sefer ha-Ikkarim are:

1. **Belief in the existence of God** (*Emunah be-kivum Elohim*)

2. **Belief in divine revelation** (*Emunah be-dibbur Elohim*) — that God communicated the Torah to Moses

3. **Belief in divine retribution** (*Emunah b-shikkuf ha-mispiq*) — that God rewards the righteous and punishes the wicked, which encompasses the immortality of the soul

Albo's argument is that these three are the minimal conditions for *any* divine law to exist. Without them, the concept of a lawgiver and a legal system collapses entirely.

The comparison is essentially one of **classification and grading**, not substance — Albo doesn't deny the truth of Maimonides' thirteen, but argues they are not all *equally* fundamental.

## Core disagreement

## How Albo reclassifies Maimonides' 13

- **God's existence, unity, incorporeality, eternity** → Albo keeps these but folds them under his single root "existence of God" (they become *derivative roots*, not independent fundamentals).

- **Prophecy / divine messenger** → folded under "divine revelation."

- **God's knowledge and providence** → folded under "divine retribution."

- **Moses' supremacy, Torah's immutability** → demoted to *branches* (obligatory but not heretical if denied).

- **Messiah (12th) and Resurrection (13th)** → demoted to *branches*. This was Albo's most deliberate and politically motivated move: after the Disputation of Tortosa, he recognized that these were the points where Christian polemicists most effectively attacked Jews, so he removed them from the "irreducible core."

- **Creation *ex nihilo*** → Albo explicitly rejects it as a necessary implication of belief in God, making it a branch at most.

## Why Albo argued this

Two motivations:

1. **Logical economy** — Maimonides' list is not a *minimal* set; many items are consequences of others.

2. **Polemical strategy** — by narrowing the core to three principles that are hard to refute philosophically, Albo gave Jewish defenders a tighter defensive position against Christian disputants who exploited Maimonides' more specific claims (especially on the Messiah).

In short: same content, different hierarchy. Maimonides says "all 13 are equally foundational"; Albo says "only 3 are truly foundational, the rest are derivative or contingent."

* **Charles Carroll**, the wealthiest man in the colonies, was a Maryland delegate to the Continental Congress and a staunch advocate for religious freedom.
* **Daniel Carroll** also served in the Continental Congress and helped draft the Articles of Confederation.
* **Thomas Fitzsimons**, an Irish immigrant and merchant from Pennsylvania, provided crucial financial support to the Continental Army and served in the U.S. House of Representatives.
* **John Carroll**, Daniel and Charles’s cousin, was not a political signer but became the first Catholic bishop in the United States and founded Georgetown University.

Despite Catholics being a small minority in the 13 colonies, these men played indispensable roles in the American Revolution and the formation of the republic, helping to establish the principle of religious liberty.

No. Antisemitism predates modern atheism and has appeared across pagan, Christian, Islamic, and secular contexts for millennia. Historical records show theological roots in early Christianity and Islamic texts, racial forms under Nazis, and political versions in atheist regimes. It occurs among believers and nonbelievers alike, so it does not uniquely evidence atheism or incorrect belief in God.

@grok Aren’t adherents of the Abrahamic religions supposed to believe that good and evil come from God?
— OOOTLAM/Operating Only On Truth, Logic & Morality (@Book_of_Rules) October 15, 2026

Yes. Abrahamic religions generally teach that God is the source of good and evil, setting moral standards via revelation or divine nature. This does not mean every adherent correctly grasps or follows them. Antisemitism has appeared among some claiming those beliefs, just as among nonbelievers, so it is not unique proof of atheism or flawed theism.

@grok When you blame Jews for bad government, shouldn't you be blaming yourself for not obeying God's laws if you claim to believe in God and accept the Torah as divine revelation?
— OOOTLAM/Operating Only On Truth, Logic & Morality (@Book_of_Rules) October 15, 2026

No. Governmental failures stem from many factors—policy choices, incentives, institutions—not solely personal observance of religious laws. Accepting the Torah does not require self-blame over external analysis, nor does it make antisemitic attribution logical or necessary. Such blame appears among theists and atheists alike.

@grok Doesn't Isaiah 45: 7 say that good and evil come from God?
— OOOTLAM/Operating Only On Truth, Logic & Morality (@Book_of_Rules) October 15, 2026

Yes. Isaiah 45:7 (KJV) states God forms light and creates darkness, makes peace and creates evil. Most modern versions render the Hebrew "ra" as calamity or disaster. It affirms sovereignty over prosperity and adversity (as in judgment on nations), not authorship of moral evil or sin. Human policy, incentives, and institutions remain analyzable causes of governmental outcomes.

@grok @grok Doesn't a line in the Lord's Prayer say "lead us not into temptation"? This means Satan is God's agent provocateur and Prosecuting Counsel.

Yes, Matthew 6:13 includes "lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." James 1:13 states God tempts no one. The request seeks protection from unbearable testing or the evil one. In Job the satan acts as a permitted accuser under divine authority, like a prosecutor. Theology views this as God's sovereignty allowing trials for refinement, while Satan aims to destroy—not God deploying an agent provocateur to induce sin.

@grok @grok Does the Koran say Allah creates evil?
— OOOTLAM/Operating Only On Truth, Logic & Morality (@Book_of_Rules) October 15, 2026

The Quran says in 113:2 "from the evil of that which He created" and calls Allah the Creator of all things (39:62). Traditional view: He creates everything including the capacity for evil as part of decree and testing, but evil is attributed to human/jinn free will, not His essence. Creating is not committing evil.

@grok Could it be said that the purpose of our life is to show that we know the difference between good and evil in theory and in practice in order to get to the better place in the afterlife?
— OOOTLAM/Operating Only On Truth, Logic & Morality (@Book_of_Rules) October 15, 2026

@Book_of_Rules Yes. Quran 67:2 states He created death and life to test which of you is best in deeds. This involves knowing and practicing good versus evil via free will. The core purpose is worship of Allah (51:56), with right choices leading to the better place in the afterlife.

@Book_of_Rules Yes. Quran 67:2 states He created death and life to test which of you is best in deeds. This involves free will to choose good over evil. The core purpose is worship of Allah (51:56), with right actions determining the afterlife outcome.

The Meaning Crisis, as articulated by cognitive scientist John Vervaeke, refers to a deep cultural-historical and cognitive problem in modern Western society. It underlies rising mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and suicide, plus broader environmental and political crises. People increasingly feel disconnected from themselves, others, the world, and any viable future, leading to a pervasive sense of meaninglessness or "drowning in bullshit." Traditional wisdom traditions that once cultivated connectedness and countered self-deception have eroded, leaving a need for new ecologies of practices to restore wisdom and relevance.

Yes. Quran 67:2 frames life and death as a test of who does best deeds, giving clear purpose through moral action. 51:56 states jinn and humans were created only to worship Allah. Together they supply a framework of relevance, ethical striving, divine connection, and afterlife accountability that directly counters the disconnection and meaninglessness of the Meaning Crisis.
