Should You Forgive?

Tanjore Glass painting of Raja Sarabhoji ( शरभोजी राजे भोसले, दुसरे ) Should You Forgive? Friday – March 27, 2026 F orgiveness is often a somewhat contested subject among the believers, especially among the followers of Christ. Of course, in the purview of metaphysics there is no one path, so to speak, but I would suggest that whatever tradition you belong to, that you allow this to guide you. The matter of how to interpret the Bible will not be considered in this post, as I would be wholly unqualified for such a task. I will however, mention the theological circumstance of the old testament, specifically Exodus 21:24, and the new testament, specifically Matthew 5:39, appearing to advise two different modalities, the old testament emphasizing as it typically does action, and the new testament emphasizing as it typically dies contemplation. It would, I am sure, be relevant to put both of these verses into their proper theological and historical context: the fact is that there is much e...

Observations About the World, Part Twenty-Six

Photograph of the Atlas globe Observations about Obesity | Thursday – March 26, 2026 O besity is perhaps the most indicative tragedy of the modern world, a true monstrosity. But why is this the case, why obesity? Well try to read some of my earlier texts about this subject before you go on with this post, as they provide crucial information. Here is a link to all my posts containing the word "fat".     Of course, it would be all too easy perhaps, to assume that there is some kind of addiction , really some kind of demon , behind the ever growing rate of obesity, particularly in the so-called "developed" world , and yes this would surely be a part of the problem, but you see it would be just as well to suggest that ideological indoctrination plays an even greater part, because after all the issue is not one of mere individualism; obesity is at this point a global and systemic, as certain particularly and conspicuously hip persons would refer to it , problem and rea...

Ideological Indoctrination

Hindu-Tamil ( ॐ ) depiction of Mariamman ( மாரியம்மன் ) Political Indoctrination | Wednesday – March 25, 2026 P olitical Indoctrination is a prerequisite in everything that requires the active engagement of the masses, and while this applies in particular to democracy , you would surely be hard pressed to find any other kind of engagement outside the officially established democracies, and this is perhaps best understood by the fact that most regimes around the world that clearly do not qualify as democracies still rely on that label or pretense, and whatever the case it is clearer still that such regimes while not being democratic in the formal sense still relies heavily upon the movement in on or the other direction of the masses . Indeed, it is even more clear that this kind of "zero sum" mentality is an inherent feature of democracy: either you are with me or you are against men, and surely most people cannot be against democracy? But political indoctrination requires muc...

Notes on Self-Defense – freestyle

King Shō Shin ( 尚真 ) Notes on Self-Defense | Tuesday – March 24, 2026 H ave I caused offense with all of my previous posts about the fragility of so-called men? Buh-huh-huh... Cry me a river. Cry me a river. The fact is that there can be no such thing as a man that is unable to defend himself; a man without lethality is an impossibility, there can be no such creature. Of course, lethality cannot be separated from self-defense, but this does not mean that the primary goal of self-defense should be a lethal outcome, but it does mean that self-defense contains within it, as a principle, the possibility of lethality, and indeed I do not believe that lethality in and of itself is a bad thing, because it would serve the cosmological order right to eliminate disturbances , and this is of course the other side of the metaphysics of crime . All of this should be obvious, but I gather that there are some persons that still fail to understand this, especially if they insist upon being "offen...
