LOGICAL MINDS ONLY

The world is market orientated which is another way of saying it operates as a competitive system or, a war of all against all. Markets are nothing more than a manifestation of the law of the jungle. Nature is red in tooth and claw and functions as a war of all against all. Ministry is the only other option.

The market is a system promoting competition. In every system of competition there are a very large number of losers. The more competition the more losers there are. Ministries focus peoples attention on a common purpose, rather than in beating the competition.

There are two possible ways to develop Africa, the first is through the market. Needless to say this method has been tried. We won't go into all of the reasons why the market method failed, we leave it up to the readers observational skills to observe the depth and extent of the market's failure. What is done here is introduce ministry as an option for Africa. Perhaps one of the reasons for the failure of the market in Africa is because God wishes to demonstrate His power through ministry, by demonstrating to the world, the power of ministry to create prosperity in Africa.

Markets are predicated on competition and will not work without competition, thus it is in the best interests of those who support markets to create as much conflict and division as possible, because complicity or cooperation kills the market. In this essay the author demonstrates how Christians can use ministry to defeat the conflictural nature of markets and make it beneficial to cooperate

After 6000 years of reforms, revolutions, elections, regime change and millions upon millions of studies and books and conferences, one might start to wonder if perhaps we were not engaged in a fools errand. The possibility is enhanced if we understand the market is not the greatest thing ever stumbled upon by our ancestors. Supply and Demand cannot be reconciled but to assume individuals making individual choices will even begin to approximate a good balance is to prove one does not understand people or the situation most find themselves in. People cannot even make good choices for themselves. We take jobs with companies involved in criminal conspiracies; we buy major products and stocks from companies about to go bankrupt. Perhaps in some imaginary world the choices of governments and individuals will result in a reasonable response of supply to demand, but it is not going to happen with the people we have or the system we are in.

There are five major questions in metaphysics, all related, that when not solved blinds us to the nature of reality and truth. These are the questions: “Why is there something rather than nothing; “What is the relationship between mind and body”; “What is free will”; “How do things maintain their identity through time.”; “What are universals”? Until and unless these question are answered all other answers will remain conditional.

The fundamental lessons you were never taught, which is why so many seek blindly for solutions where they will never be found.

A church ought to have five different ministries in operation, these are pastoral, evangelism, teaching, worship and a social justice ministry or charitable ministry.

People remain in a marriage without armed guards present. People even remain in jobs and towns for many years or even their entire life, without punishment threatening them if they leave. Why do people remain in place without coercion? Why can't we apply this same kind of thinking to the incarcerated?

It has always been argued that to have prosperity the population must be growing. As is usual in this system the argument is a total fabrication and at best, a half-truth. The truth is if we maintain a system in which there must be a growing population to have prosperity, then we will need a large influx of new persons to keep the economy growing. This is a relative truth, not an absolute truth. The absolute truth is prosperity has little to do with the growth or decline of a population. It has more to do with the absolute size of the population.

Trump failed because Trump became a politician and politicians always fail. There is no path to success for a politician, the successful ones merely do not fail as bad as the rest but if you look at their career and the aftermath it will gradually become more obvious, especially with the passage of time, just how little they accomplished and how much negative results flowed from the policies they enacted. To write a positive history of a politician requires a lot of empathy and imaginative writing.

There is no truth and no certainty other than that which we can acquire through logical coherence. But there is no logical coherence possible in a relativistic or causal system.

God gave to the church the worlds most powerful admirative system. Nothing man made can compete. However the church, in its wisdom, followed the blind leaders of this world and took up the teachings of this worlds experts, thereby permitting the world to defeat it and marginalize it. Yet all the church needs to do is to do what God told them to do at the beginning.

Man has endeavored to be the measure of all things, up to and including his own salvation. But the one thing he cannot serve as the standard of is logic. Logic measures itself by its own internal coherence. One can play games with this and posit logically incoherent arguments but coherence does not just apply to a three sentence statement, it applies to reality as well, and if what you say does not cohere with observation, the logical coherence is just an illusion and a contrivance and no logical at all.

What is “The African Solution”? It is three believers and a simpler interpretation of the Bible. The Bible is a handbook, not a metaphysical textbook. Scripture is an instruction manual that makes the rest of the worlds books redundant. Africa needs three or more persons and the Holy Spirits guidance and a process can be started that will turn it, or any other place that gives Scripture its proper place in the community, into a perfect community. There is no other place to end up if you follow God, that in a state of perfection. Try and prove me wrong, follow the program set out here and see where you end up.

This essay will discuss the elimination of unemployment, the elimination of the state, taxation and laws, the end of war and crime and it may well include a piece on how to create a jail without walls, it will tell you how to create a classical free market, and how to eliminate debt, risk liabilities and create a sensible Utopia. Perfection is possible, equality is possible, a system of honest persons is possible, if you want it.

There can be only one problem from which all others are derived. If there is only one original problem, there is only one solution. If what we do has not identified the one problem but seeks to ameliorate various problems derived from the central problem there will be no solution.

A radical believes that society requires fundamental, structural change, and that such changes must address the root causes of the issues. While traditionally associated with the far-left, anti-establishment movements, the term spans the political spectrum and favors drastic overhaul over gradual reform. An Apriorian Radical believes this radical change can come from only one source; the Bible.

The perfect mission is defined by the technology of separation. We cannot be perfect within a framework of corruption. The Perfect Mission gives people a perfect destination defined by a way to guide the direction in which we head as a society. The crucial element is to separate from the imperfections of this world as we embrace the perfection of the missions objective.

There is an offer you cannot refuse because you cannot remain in the situation you are in. There is only one way out of it and at some point, you will have to accept this offer or go down with the system you are in. This system you are in cannot be repaired nor made to work because it was made to destroy itself and everyone whom it can take with it.

What is sin in the most basic of senses? Is it akin to the law whereas if one breaks a rule one has sinned, or is there something deeper and more logical about sin that defines it more of a moral problem than an ethical one. In this essay we look at the fundamental of sin so we understand the metaphysics of sin.

There is only one truth and it is logical. Inductive truth is relative and probabilistic and technically speaking, is not truth at all. Induction provides us with observations and educated guesses but these cannot be considered truths in the logical meaning of the word.

Risk is contested ownership. If there is only one owner and there are no other claiments to the thing, there is no risk attached to it, and there are no liabilities. A liability is the recognition of a level of risk attached to an asset, due to someone who has a claim to the asset along with the primary owner. When risk exists opportunity declines, because the increase in risk increase the potential loss.

There are no piecemeal solutions. Every part of the system is dependent on all other parts. The Protestant Reformation tried to correct the worst elements of the Catholic Church but ended up dependent on a state that was in even worse shape than Catholicism. In this essay the author lays out a logically consistent reformation that changes everything.

Problems disappear with only a few people and a program that systematically eliminates unemployment, debt, poverty, inflation, pollution, waste, taxation, homelessness, war, and crime. When these are eliminated the mother of all parasites, the State also disappears. Along with these problems, Apriorian Magic makes the Five Foundational Errors disappear, these foundational errors give the state is power and image of legitimacy, they are democracy, ownership, currency, laws, and power disparities.

Where do you look for the Abomination of Desolation. What form do you think it will take? Will it have a sign on it, or will a notification be issued? Or, perhaps, will you have passed it by and shook hands with it and perhaps danced with it along with your generations and saw it every day of your life. Perhaps when you see it, nothing will have changed, but you will see it because the scales have fallen off of your eyes.

To be rational requires a line of division between reason and unreason. One cannot be rational if it is not also possible to be irrational. Therefore, there is a quality to reason lacking in what we observe to be irrationality. That quality that applies to reason is charity. A reasonable man is a charitable man, whereas the unreasonable are strategic. Yet, strategy plays a major role in politics, business and even religion.

To be radical is to be extreme, at least in the eyes of the world. There is nothing more extremist than opposing the entirety of the system we are in. If one is not radical it is difficult to see how one could be Christian. Jesus was certainly considered a radical. He was radical enough to be crucified essentially for treason.

Without intention there is no mind. Mind is intention. If we do not intend to do what we do, we cannot argue that the mind was involved. Things done under compulsion, addition and coercion are not intentional acts and not under the aegis of the mind.

The Apriorian Compact is a settlement between man and God in which we the signatories give up freedom in exchange for guidance and the provision of a path towards perfection.

There is no shortage of nations that refer to themselves as a republic. There is, however, a total absence of nations that fit the profile of a republic, namely a system in which …”supreme authority belongs to the voting public.” But even though many Western nations mock the East where the voter is given only one option to choose, things are not that much better in the West. The selection is still orchestrated, and the voter is akin to a figurehead, with more ceremonial power than actual authority.

Imagine a group of persons, of any size. Imagine if they were scrupulously honest. They never lied and never did anything they would have to lie about or that was dishonest.What crime would exist, what problems would there be? What would the state do in a population of totally honest people. The Radical Theorem is this, that in a group of honest people utopia is the only possible situation. Which beg the question: Why are there so many dishonest people and why are we tolerating them?

It seems easier for men to hate than love. Is this natural? It could be said to be natural in this system of things. If not natural, it can certainly be understood. Everyone, without many exceptions, represents a risk, a threat that if one lets down ones guard and begins to trust someone, you will open yourself up to the hurt and damage of betrayal.

There is no path to intentionality by means of a dishonest mind. If we intend something we need to be honest about it.

The age-old problem has always been how does the regular citizen wrest power from the parasites. This explains the process using the example of an Intentional Community.

The true power of Christianity resides it is power to create intentionality. But let me explain what I mean below.

We all develop physically. We do not all develop spiritually. This is the Apriorian's guild to spiritual development.

What does it mean to be justified and what is the process of achieving it.

Humans are not their body, they are their programming. The person who is raised in one culture may have the same body as someone raised in another culture, but he will be a different kind of person. A new race of man does not require the morphology be different, only the type of programming needs to alter to a significant degree and a fundamental level.

How many opportunities came and went and you did nothing. They are all part of this system. This is an opportunity that is greater than all those others you missed because it makes them redundant. And it is free.

A constitution is a founding document but if it is to be truly basic it needs to iterate the most basic truths, which means, the truths established by God. Anything else is not justifiable.

Abstract: Confused about why crime, war, poverty, unemployment and all of the other failures of this world exist? Do you wonder why we can be at one and the same time, brilliant in a technological sense at one end of the spectrum, and over-grown children socially at the other end? The simple answer most people are technically insane because they gamble on an outcome they know will never come about.

There are five solutions that implemented would restore reality to the condition God designed it to be in.

If you can throw a party, have a bar b q or arrange a wedding, you have everything it takes to start a successful business, without risk.

Every problem we encounter is caused by parasitism. No exceptions.

Apriorian Apologetics is a scientific approach to apologetics. While we need always to be ready to give an answer for the faith we have, too often this is done resorting to generalities and subjective impressions. Apriorian Apologetics is an attempt to express our reasons in a way that can be accepted by a professional audience.

How to be a moral leader is surprisingly simple. All a person has to do is to strip freedom from himself and preferentially give it to others, or at least not do anything to deprive anyone of a freedom to benefit oneself.

The First Order Principle is an arcane problem discussed by philosophers for generations but ignored by the vast majority or persons, but if the First Order Principle tells us where the line between good and evil is and what are priorities ought to be, lacking an understanding of what the First Order Principle is, seriously damages our ability to marshal our resources or determine the nature of justice. A shortfall rectified herein.

Perfection, as an issue, is a non-starter. It is classed as the same type of thing as a utopia, which is interesting because imperfect beings cannot possess a perfect community nor can an imperfect place house morally perfect beings. We cannot have one without the other, and so we have resigned ourselves, prematurely, to having neither. Prematurely is the key word, in the sentence above.

What we need can only be answered when we know what is wrong with the world and why. Only when we have figured out what went wrong can we figure out what it will take to fix it.

The theology of Apriorian is based on our apologetics which is an explanation for the faith we have. Our reason is the life we have been given. Our theology is a way of life that bears fruit and in the sharing of our life and the reason for our faith, our theology becomes a charity.
