Episode 1: Belief Belief is one half of our information. The other half is knowledge. Belief is what we each accept without proof. Knowledge is what we can prove to each other with independent facts. Because no one knows everything, we depend on our belief systems to fill in the gaps of information. Science is the best belief system for better information because it requires the simplest belief - that the universe exists with constant properties, and the scientific method is the best way

What would we like to have in our civilization? I think more recreation would be a good thing. That's how I can pursue happiness. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness can be achieved if we just change the world. Easy-peezy.

You gotta have souls?

Abortion is a major social issue in the US, because some people believe that a single cell is a human. I disagree. I think the categorization of an organism classified as Homo sapiens does not achieve 'human' status until they develop consciousness. Think about that. If you were only considered human based on your ability to think, imagine how many politicians would be unemployed? Humans build civilizations based on ideas. We think and generate new combinations of information. We share

The Big Question

Mostly Hairless Apes ·

2024/02/22

This is just one answer to the question: Are you civilized? Civilization is a higher order function than society. We need to decide as a species what we want as our global civilization. We have a global economy. We have (sort of) a global government. We definitely do no have a global belief system. But what if we did? What if we all belonged to the Church of Science?

We are at the end of an era - The Colonial Era. We had monarchs and plutocrats guiding us through the last 500 years as western European nations expanded over the globe. We established two amazing social adaptations to regulate our societies: Democracy and Capitalism. Now we have to decide which one is more important. Do we want democratic Capitalism (DC), or capitalist Democracy (CD)? DC gives us the ability to vote on things, up to the point where we intrude on peoples right to own

Be a Professional

Mostly Hairless Apes ·

2024/02/08

'Being professional' captures an idea about different things to different people. Maybe we could use those ideas as a new standard for civilized, social behavior. Professionals are rewarded economically, are granted certain social status, and have a say in running their segment of society. Isn't that what citizenship is about? How would society change if we started requiring 'professional behavior' out of all adult citizens?

Could professional sports be a model for social organization? They combine the ideas of biological fitness, intellectual planning, and economic viability to social systems that use regulated combinations of cooperation and competition. Hmmm.

Episode 3: You say you want a revolution?

Mostly Hairless Apes ·

2023/10/19

Revolutions occur because beliefs change. Things are stable in groups when everyone believes basically the same things. IF those things actually represent reality, then they can be stable for a long time. This episode covers centuries of revolutions, all in 30 minutes!
