The Supreme Court Destroyed the Structure of Marriage

 When Chief Justice Roberts weighed in to destroy the structure of marriage he joined with the pervading social zeitgeist of unreality of the era that was redefining names to mean flavors of evolution rather than Platonic realist things-in-themselves. Marriage had a structure that was written in common law and tradition that referred to the institution protecting women and children’s rights’ family rights in the process of creating humans. Creating or birthing humans was always accomplished exclusively with two people heterosexually sharing the task. Chief Justice Roberts and court secularists decided it was convenient to destroy the meaning of the structure of marriage and change it to something else that would thereby permit homosexuals to redistribute the rights given by law to marriage unto themselves as well.

 Redefining structure as a method for redistributing the properties of legal rights is an interesting way to render laws and meanings malleable to corrupt interests seeking to expropriate established properties of rights. If structure is explicitly redefined it should be acknowledged publicly rather than in passing fate accompli. In the case of marriage it would have been a better choice to leave the integrity of the meaning of the word in its historical and sane context and create a new establishment for homosexuals to legally entangle themselves together in instead of corrupting plain and simple truth.

 The criterion's conundrum was the rise of nominalism over neo-realism in linguistics. Kripke's version failed to a nominalism so extreme that falsehood became as good as truth.  Courts regarded morphing structures as fair dinkum in reconstructing political correctness for the New World Order favoring billionaires and scientist-atheists.

One of the problems with erasing truth from law and legal structures that are well established and replacing them with operative fiction is in the new methods of defense of hostile takeovers that attack defenders as bigots. In the case of abortion women in support of abortion did not generally accuse men and women that opposed abortion as bigots as did homosexuals to those defending the real structure of marriage. There is a great difference between taking sides in a legitimate political dispute in a democratic society and bigotry or persecution of individuals personally for having an antipathetic political opinion publicly expressed. In the modern social media environment many subtle ways exist to harm conservatives defending traditional values- and here I refer to moral values rather than interests of the rich and wealth classes seeking to concentrate wealth that paradoxically is quite predominant amidst homosexuals and Wall Street equally with moral conservatives.

 Truth is a useful item to adhere to even when it requires philosophical thought instead of simple unthinking acceptance of a given social inertia. Evolution theory seems to eliminate the requirement for truth in politics as the end and methods are deemed for-themselves neither good nor bad except as they are desired by the powerful. Evolution theory is just a phenomenon in a deeper Universe or Multiverse that may exist as math ideas in the mind of God. The entire Universe may be pre-determined structurally inclusive of evolution in a mysterious eternally existing process sustained by the will of God. Modern cosmology offers a field of deep ideas that aren’t antipathetic to the concept that Jesus Christ is the Word of God who created the Universe. The shallow leap to the conclusion that if evolution exists then Bible cosmology is wrong and that idea is itself wrong. Legal issue need also seek to keep the truth of structures intact in respect of laws promulgated by a Democratic, representative government. Instead of corrupting the meaning of structures it should allow legislatures to put new vinegar into new wine skins.

 Consider the idea of the structure of what makes a church for tax exempt status purposes. In theory there isn’t much reason why the Supreme Court couldn’t hear a case and decide that the Dow Jones establishment is a church where people worship money and should therefore be given tax exempt status for all the members. If the court did that it would be recognizable that the meaning of the structure of a church had changed or been corrupted to benefit a special interest as it was in the case of homosexuals and marriage.

 There was no compelling reason to corrupt one working structure by redefining and thereby destroying it to protect a minority or to assure equal rights or protection of the law; all men and women in the U.S.A. had equal opportunity to participate in marriage. Now that the structure of marriage has been destroyed, none have the opportunity. What supplanted marriage and took its name is something else that is likely to have long-range deleterious effects upon society equal to that of the corruption by the Supreme Courts choice.

 Conflation of a host of issues pertaining to discrimination against homosexuals led to the wrong decision to annihilate the structure of marriage, although a secondary reason was that certain influential, effete intellectuals felt that global demographics and the limits of population growth deemed the need to end marriage as a normal practice. Truth and information were better ways to address the problems of population growth and decreasing ecosystem extent and health with finite natural resources. All citizens including homosexuals should have security in work and culture; that wasn’t ever much of an issue. If people wish to sin that is their right so far as it isn’t a crime in this world. Homosexuals, Wall Street, social media and the left have tried to ban opposition to homosexual marriage and have employed subtle and some ham-fisted methods to proscribe expression of opposition. So much the worse for democracy and empowerment of Plutocrats and their minions.

 A final point for the edification of certain broadcast media wise-guys on what the meaning is of the Christian Church being the bride of Christ. It is nothing about homosexuality that is roundly proscribed in the Bible in New and Old Testaments. It is simply and expression, a kind of literal metaphor about the love that the creator of the Universe has for the souls that are the elect and saved eternally to worship God. Keep in mind that the Christian belief is that God created the Universe and every soul in it, and that the Universe is replete with original sin (that to me is exemplified in the thermodynamic facts of life and energy consumption and pro-creative urges) and therefore people are unfit for eternal life with God. Just through the atoning gift of God in the saving grace and crucifixion and substitution of the Lord Jesus for payment-unto death of sin owed by all can any of humanity be saved, rather than go to eternal hell.

 A human soul is a vaporous thing in a manner of speaking. It is a phenomenal, effervescent self-aware person existing for a moment in temporal being. It was created in a Universe created by God through the Son as the Word of God. God loves those saved souls and that is the meaning of the church as the bride of Christ; he really does care about the elect saved through the grace of the Spirit of God enabling faith in individual souls. The swell broadcast media and others might need a little humility to comprehend that. Too much prosperity and power may dull spiritual sensibility as well as good political sense to understand the value f keeping integrity concerning structure and legal meanings rather than melting down non-legislatively as if they were wax forms to be recast in the zeitgeist-world spirit of political correctness.

Politicians Consider Stimulus Plans to Motivate 1%

 Federal politicians are considering a stimulus plan to help get the economy going through the Covid 19 era that would in some way accelerate the concentration of wealth upwardly. Thus the concept of just providing another $1200 payment to all Americans earning fewer than $40,000 annually was thrown out because those Americans would probably spend the money right away and buy things that would make life easier. Instead large checks to and loans that needn't be repaid will go to small businesses like the L.A. Lakers and others struggling to make it to another NBA final later this month. Personally I hope the Lakers win another championship and a Covid 19 relief check and zero interest loans might help them rehab Boogie Cousins or sign a 9th round draft choice.

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/02/mcconnell-schumer-far-apart-on-unemployment-benefits-stimulus-plans.html

It is important to take another few months to find a way to send a stimulus plan that is just perfect because there won't be any time to fix anything wrong with it the next four years. Especially since Democrats may take the Senate and find a way to send help to government union workers that have the worst jobs in the U.S.A. with terrible retirement benefits, Speaker Pelosi needs to get that right.  

Especially since no one really understands what the Federal Public Debt means since it has no real material basis anymore like gold, and trillions have been given  to the rich banks along with zero interest rates since the 2008 financial crisis taking several more months to craft a splendid bill works. It is possible that some special pens will be designed to sign the bill into law when the final t's are crossed and i's dotted and the public can read about what's in it. People that have become homeless during the crisis or that were denied unemployment compensation for one reason or another might prefer that those that were prosperous before the crisis receive the most and fasted relief money from the U.S. Government being patriotic and all as they are  confident that the rich are looking out for them.

Invisible Martian Collusion with Biden to Steal Trump Votes?

 President Trump may have lost the election because of collusion between the Biden campaign and invisible Martian agents provocateurs and agents reallocating votes from machines that went to trump initially to the Biden buffer. Evidence is plain and abundant in that Joe Biden won by six million votes. Those votes were rightfully votes for Trump.

 Joe Biden fractured an ankle recently in a cage match with his dog providing more evidence of Martian collusion. Martians may have the capacity for taking the form of a dog. No other explanation could exist for the victory of the German Sheppard viciously body slamming the MME enabled Democratic President-elect into submission. That dog may be the foreign affairs liaison election coordinator with leadership of the Martian ministry of Excellent Subversions.

 If President Trump isn’t able to find more evidence of Martian collusion his Presidency may actually end leaving much unfinished and the great task of locating the Trump Presidential Twit library to conserve millions of Donald Trump’s greatest tweets to Twitter.

 Trump populism failed because (besides the fact that billionaire populism is a bit disingenuous) it needed to transition the industrial working core to ecologically beneficial activities rather than dig a deeper hole for atmospheric heating and mass species extinction. Nationalism and populism that lead by good example are fine; international agreements are no good substitute for fixing one’s own nation’s economically maladapted infrastructure- they are just a way of passing the buck. The kingdom of ecospheric health is within a nation rather than the diplosphere of treaties. While Earth is running a current accounts gap as if Mars had a great trade surplus with Earth (because of corporate and individual wealth hidden in offshore accounts), and there is no tax on wealth, there isn’t much chance of actually creating a sustainable ecosphere and economy on Earth that works for all of the people all of the time.

An E-4 Opening Against the Pirc Defense Blitz Game

 I played a game against the Pirc defense recently. I have considered using it against 1 .d4 yet don't really know too much about it. When I played 1. e-4 the Pirc appeared and this is what happened. Hence I may stay away from that defense.

Why Donald Trump Lost the 2020 Election

 The daily death toll of a man a minute in the U.S.A. around election time was predictable several months ago. The President’s clumsy response to Covid 19- I rate him as a C- at best, assured that renewed mass infection would occur after people returned to schools and precautionary spacing measures were reduced in the Mid-west and South leading up to election time.

 I predicted the third wave of Covid for October and November  months ago without any difficulty.

https://garycgibson.blogspot.com/2020/08/on-algorithms-for-moral-decisions-video.html

 The Presidential attitude eschewing a mask and making jokes such as suggesting injecting antiseptic cleaner as a remedy to kill the virus stimulated numerous red communities to abandon caution in restoring their economies to operation from lockdown. What was needed was a very serious, sober Presidential response about Covid 19 along with role model of mask wearing and soliciting of suggestions for ways to prevent mass infection and keep the economy operating at the same time. Presidential leadership could have at least prompted manufacture of a complete head covering mask that was comfortable and that would allow dangerous during a pandemic era activities like riding public transit to resume. Even activities like manufacturing computers, cars and slaughtering farm animals for food required some sort of safety head-covering manufacture leadership from the President that never occurred.

https://wgntv.com/news/coronavirus/illinois-surpasses-700000-covid-19-cases-12000-deaths-as-state-reports-7574-new-cases-66-deaths/

 President Trump appeared to blow off Covid 19 and the death rate as something of secondary importance to profit and the Dow Jones Industrial average increase. There are between 170,000 and 200,000 new infections each day and even with a .5% death rate the number is consequential. That may be a reason why the President lost the election by six million votes; older people at risk of medical complications and death were likely to be somewhat disinclined to vote for president Trump this time where in 2016 they might have been more concerned about tax cuts for their golden years. Boomers might be the largest demographic in the nation and they have experienced far higher than average number of deaths from the virus during the pandemic. President Trump’s attitude seemed like callous indifference to Covid risk compared to economics. That is just a perception that some have and that may have cost Donald Trump the 2020 election although he may be the only fellow in the nation that still doesn’t know he lost the election.

 President Trump has said the election was “100% rigged” against him. He would not be the first American to learn that society has ad hoc networks as well as established ones that can rig the economic game against a single individual. Crank conservatives would dismiss the idea explaining that the President is a lazy loser and no one or organization ever interferes with anyone’s economic self-determination; the President has no one besides himself to blame.

If there is a Kweer Klux Clan subverting free speech throughout social media that worked against President Trump to actualize a plan for global political control for sympathetic sponsoring corporate billionaires who would know? One trouble is that President Trump is himself a member of the global corporate Plutocratic billionaire class despite his claims to populism as evidenced by slaughtering the ecosphere, drilling oil and subverting clean air and water standards in the U.S.A. There are concrete ceilings beneath which the enterprising individual may bump his head in futility to the amusement of the powerful.

 At any rate the election loss demonstrated the strength of the Electoral College in preventing corruption of the general presidential election; with fifty states independently counting votes there is little chance of a system wide failure of integrity. To fool the public on the vote count in fifty states would be very challenging. Fifty state Supreme Courts would need to be persuaded of the dishonesty of election proceedings in their jurisdiction following lawsuits brought locally, and not a single state has found substantive evidence of mass voter frauds or election official counting deceit so far.

Artificial Mountain Range Homes for a Planet (and a poem)

 If the population of the United States were to live within artificial mountain ranges homes for one million people apiece, just 325 structures presently would be needed for all Americans. Space for work and industry may need an equal amount of space so the total number of structures needed to let Americans and the economy of the United States function would be 650. Most of the United States could be restored to a wilderness condition and farmland between the structures that shelter farm space from wildlife.

 Transportation around the nation would be in hyper-tubes buried just partially under the surface of the Earth allowing inter-mountain travel at high speed. How would the  artificial mountain ranges look?

Although there are numerous possible optimal designs a simple one for illustrative purpose would be that of a 15-story double-hulled Quonset hut-like structure (inverted u shape) 100 miles in length. Residents would live in condominia between the double hull and the central space would be open. Exteriors would have solar panels and variegated natural surfaces for wildlife to utilize. Everyone would have an excellent view of the outdoors. The interior space might have a stream and fast transport modes. Optimizing geographic location placement of the structures would be valuable for exterior farming. Some areas of interior farming might be set aside in work structure areas for 15 stories of multi-level gardening with efficient hydroponics, trellises and dirt/watering from overhead. The topology of structure exteriors might be optimized with numerous temporal configurations possible with motile surface adaptation mechanisms. Housing is a fundamental human right. Even primitive tribes afforded every citizen a place to live. It would have been unthinkable for a tribesman of the upper Amazon to have existed in a homeless state. Each citizen of the renewed Earth would have equal space of 10,000 sq feet to exist in, and his or her intellect would determine how and what the space was used for. No citizen would own more than 300 times the wealth of the most poor citizen, although his business entity could have private capital of great scale and the total private capital of the state could be equal too yet not greater than public capital.  

 A century and a half of designed construction evolution probably would  be required to complete the fulfilment of a planetary housing plan. Business ideas would be accentuated that supported the construction project, and Wall Street would have a century and a half to adapt to the change. Eventually much new construction would exist off-world on Mars and elsewhere.

 Government forms need to adapt to the demographics and environment in which they will be used. Democracy offers numerous possibilities for adaptation that are not utilized and are generally unknown to most people.

 Interestingly 8 billion people on Earth would require just 8,000 artificial mountain ranges of 100 miles in length and 15 stories of height (soundproof and very solid structures) with another 8,000 units for work and industrial space to let the planetary ecosphere have a chance to recover with older structures except for a few historically important sites being removed to let wilderness return. Future developments on the Moon and Mars could exploit some features of space-Q-hut technology experimentally developed on Earth.

Three Steps for New American Exceptionalism

American can take three steps toward exceptionalism if it has sense. It can be a leader by example to other nations of right national policy. Here are three things that need be done to change the nation for the better.

 1)    Secure the borders against illegal immigration and limit lawful immigration to 300,000 annually with half being the poor drawn by lottery. Everyone in the nation need be on a legal sheet of music and a level field.

2)    Develop economic class consciousness and eliminate poverty entirely and have some solid safety net against being broke. Most wealth and income in the United States is held by a tiny minority of the people. Originally Americans revolted against European royalty, global powers and aristocratic superiors generally. Today Americans venerate the rich and many welcome globalism. Those global powers will reassert control over the U.S.A. and over time make it disappear along various fault lines convenient for planetary plutocrats. Restoration of solidly progressive taxation, free public education through graduate school, cap on patent exclusivity to 5 years with 10% royalties to patent holder subsequently etc would help defrappe that. Presently the nation has splintered to form eight or ten social classes based on individual characteristics like race, gender, perversion and so forth that are entirely stupid and benefit the rich primarily. Race rights are encouraged to eclipse equal rights, and that is bad.

 3)    Restore the environment. Ecosphere decay and mass species extinction occur with too many people with too many machines driving about like  environmentally non-reasoning apes killing things. The environment should be integrated into the economy in a positive way for people and ecosphere. This is why I am for radically slowing population growth on Earth and in the United States in particular.

 Yes it is possible to change toward being an exceptionally good example although improbable; the broadcast media and film is largely owned by wealthy networks that socially program the people to follow the real interests of the richest. I am for free enterprise rather than socialism. Democracy or a Republic hybrid can provide all of the benefits of socialism better with good leadership. Socialism and too little individualism degrades the quality of life and of the mind and runs the risk of elevating uncreative and ecospherically harmful people and classes to leadership positions with leadership going the wrong way that can be hard to replace.

 President Trump lost the election yet had some support from white people because he expressed concern for their class interest that has been thought to have suffered from non-white political advances and the left coalition with non-males, homosexuals and anti-Christians and atheists. White culture and politics and wars such as the civil and second world war wherein fascism was defeated allowed minorities in to dully participate in U.S. life and politics. It is unreasonable to expect them to be happy about having their interests attacked. The civil effort of civil rights is equal protection of the law rather than ascendance of one special class over others, or of the blue over reds. I must say I don’t like the terms because it reminds me of the corrupting and shallow political classes of the Byzantine Empire that initially formed around garment colors of chariot racing fans.

 What is fascism then? Fascist attitudes do exist in the red voters for Trump although it is a minority that are so disposed to hate Winston Churchill, venerate Robert E. Lee and regard General Hood as a kind of one-armed saint of war. Fascism is simply ruthless social behavior by an individual, collective, network or anyone to advance political interests. That is, fascism is a basic social behavior rather than a hard political form. Originally in Republican Rome it was a logical enough thing. When Rome was threatened by war they brought out the facies or sticks that were taken to the lead of a war parade to symbolize the time for fighting. Rome appointed a dictator for a year during times of war and he was given the facies that later became eponymous for the retrograde leadership of Mussolini and Hitler. Hitler incidentally was a shill for the aristocrats that were deposed during a civil rebellion at the end of the First World War. One should not forget the perennial advice to follow the money- there are always people that want money and power exclusively and will do anything to get it.

 

Re: Philosophical Idealism and Cosmology

 Bishop Berkeley developed the theory of idealism perhaps following Plato. Berkeley called it ‘ideaism’. His Three Dialogues are quite good. One can skip to the modern world and the deconstruction of empiricism that Quine accomplished in his ‘Two Dogmas of Empiricism’. He demonstrated that logically one need rely on thought at some point in making arguments about the nature of reality. That doesn’t mean that one cannot make statements about the ‘real’ world of common experience/ It is just that everyone perceives it subjectively. A simple illustration is the interpretation of a human mind of photon wavelengths that create the appearance of color in a human brain and mind. There is not color in the photons themselves; not even the color force.

 It is worth remembering that the entire material, physical world is a secondary appearance or quality of energy slowed down into three dimensions when encountering the Higgs Field. Those are the slightly slower than light speed quanta of atoms that makes the material world to exist-for-humans. What that actually is for-itself is difficult to say. Kant’s outlook of the noumenon may in a sense be applicable to the unknown generally. There is perhaps quite a lot of stuff about cosmology that no one knows nor may every know.

Will President Trump Barricade himself in the White House?

 President Trump still believes he won the November election and is pursuing many remedies, yet like  the western land for cattlemen movement it is possible that the President will offer armed resistance to federal eviction and is even now stocking up an arsenal of big guns. He is resolute to go the distance, even if the race seems over to some.

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/526663-trump-campaign-asks-pennsylvania-court-to-declare-trump-winner

The question thus arises of what chance the F.B.I. Hostage Rescue Team or Federal Marshalls would have against the Trump White House, and if it would be as entertaining as the gunfight at the o.k. corral Kevin Costner version (Wyatt Earp).

America likes winners and sometimes graceless losers. Only time can tell which is which, what is what, and if global warming will be an issue or not regardless of the weather and the fate of mankind.

President-Elect Biden- Better off With Controversial Obama Cabinet Leadership?

 Pundits have suggested that President-elect Biden should fill his cabinet with Obama-appointees who are experienced and can help the new President navigate the shoals and rapids of the new job. It is believed that President-elect Biden has little experience or ideas for himself and would need the Obama administration team to back-seat drive his administration, yet that may not be so. It is possible, though maybe difficult for some to believe, that Joe Biden has some ideas of his own to try out in the new job, since he has more than 30 years of experience in trying to be the President of the United States.

Joe Biden's 1988 Presidential campaign didn't work, and that was a different world than now. President Reagan had made great progress toward ending the Cold War with the Soviet Union though few including the G.W.H. Bush people were really aware of it. Almost none supported the draw down of missiles besides President Reagan. It would be good if the Biden administration could return toward peace and prosperity with Russia instead of inflaming the situation as did the Obama administration.

The nation has experienced much divisiveness and turmoil this millennium. President Biden could make his mark redirecting the course of the economic infrastructure if he is bold and names his own poison of controversy. Likely limited to a four-year term he cannot afford to chase after ever controversial choice and topic that swamps him.

The great surprise of the Trump administration was the last year when he engineered full diplomatic relations between Israel and a few Arab state; something that couldn't be achieved by any other President. The great mystery is how that got done. Sect. of State Pompeo may have the answer yet it is, of course, generally not known outside of special insider circles.

Did President Trump promise to give the Arab royals special status on a global plutocrat council to divy up the world if they signed on with Israel? Maybe the Arabs were just compassionate conservatives after all and are even considering practical future-looking events like building on the Moon or Mars are part of a Goldman Sachs or Warren Buffet, Elon Musk ad hoc investment group. It isn't too likely that a Sect of State Susan Rice would get very far in advancing relations with Muslim nations besides photo ops with liberated Muslim women without hijab or face masks like Americans seeking to avoid Covid 19.

There isn't anything wrong with a somewhat moderate Sect. of Sate although more creative, innovative ecological economists with advanced degrees might be people to look for to fill Sect. of the Interior and HUD positions. SOme kind of new thinking economist able to restore progressive taxation and implement social change policies to assure that all Americans have adequate health care and basic income to play in the modern mobile and fluid economic sea of change would need to be found outside of Obama administration personnel whom were not notable for much besides fomenting wars, riots and providing Bush II tax cuts for the richest Americans.

If the new Biden administration takes up controversial personnel and policies right off to the neglect of fundamental economic reform he may not get a chance during his final two years when he could be facing impeachment from a Republican House majority as turnabout is considered by some to be fair political play.
