I like Math.
Unlike Math, life is confusing. So many things are suspicious. Moreover, unlike Math, people don’t seem to see the difficulty.
When I have problems with Math, people tend to understand that this stuff is tough and explain it to me kindly.
Yet, so many things in life are suspicious. When I question it, people would say that I was the most stupid people on earth that don’t even know stuffs.
Why people fight over differences of religious doctrines?
I mean there are so many evil people in the earth. There are thieves. There are robbers. There are burglars. There are fraudsters. But why we fight those with different beliefs?
To me, why people fight heresy is not obvious. Most apologetic explanation raises even more confusions and suspicions.
However, we have the Math of life. We have something like math that can consistently explain life’s phenomena in ways that make sense.
It’s called science. The math of inanimate object is Physics, which you’re all familiar with.
The math of life is evolution theory. That one is heavily censored.
It’ll be too long to explain, how it works. You can check it in my website at http://GenePoolSurvivalGuide.com
I’ll give a brief explanation to the question I was asking.
And why people fight over difference of religious doctrines
The way we evolve is when we’re not at war, we’re in a race. People want to knock down those who run the fastest. When envy bigots can do so effectively, how to be successful then
Before free market, the most successful people in the earth are not businessmen.
At that time, we didn’t have Bill Gates streamlining operating system to the whole world.
We didn’t have Warren Buffet buying stocks and commodity when everyone wants to sell and supplying commodities when everyone wants to buy.
Nor did we have Thomas Edison that invents so many useful goods for society.
Why? That’s because in countries with plenty of envy bigots, you can’t be successful honestly. No matter how honest, fair, and productive the way you make your money, you’re still hated. When the bigots are the one influential, which means you’re still death.
So how do successful kings, emperors, and dictators maintain their success They do so by showing people that they’re not competitors. How? By ensuring that we’re not in competition. So what’s the alternative War…
So that people don’t fight their king, a wise king will come up with some common enemies the people should kill and fight to unite the people.
When Frederick from Holy Roman Empire attack the Pope, the Pope wisely told all those excess hot heads to attack the Muslims in another crusade.
When a Sultan have full harem, how can he prevent those who don’t get any women from rebelling By encouraging the non alpha males to commit Jihad. So that they die. Gee, and all this time we are taught that prostitution is inhuman.
That’s why Saladin didn’t destroy all Christian cities. He left some. Saladin knew that once common enemies are gone, the Muslims will fight against each other.
He could also be quite compassionate. However, any preferences must have some selfish motive too right. That’s the fundamental assumptions behind selfish genes theory. And that’s an assumption that has correctly predict plenty of phenomena.
Of course, it won’t be fair to pick only Christians and Muslims as samples. The truth is all societies have their fair share of war that’s unworthy to fight.
Some wars are necessary. When US don’t have nukes aimed at China, they’re dust, literally. The same way when China don’t have nukes aimed at US, we’re dust literally too.
When we’re not at war, we’re in a race. Some people are not competitive, so they want war. The underlying structure of life is a virtual latent gun fight.
If we do not want to die, we either have to kill or make a credible threat that we are able and willing to kill when things go too far against our interests.
The way to make that credible threat is by actually killing on some small scales. So some war is necessary.
That’s why I support Death Penalty. I also suggest that we should do it once in a while to those who really ask for it. That’s how we create a credible threat against murders, and robbers. In doing so, we protect the innocents.
However, most of the time, the other side do not attack us. We can make money honestly and productively. Many times, there is simply no good reason for war.
So why war? What’s the justification for that war? Guess what Fairy tales like religions of course.
Religions can justify anything. Faith does not require evidences. Hence, it’s a perfect justification for those who want to pit people against each other.
We see that countries that fail to embrace freedom and meritocracy are countries plagued with religious prosecution and war over differences of faith. That’s simply how to be successful in such countries. Pit people against each other.
It’s so easy to downplay and exaggerate an aspect of life. Punishing thieves will put power in the hand of weak but productive individuals. Punishing the innocents will put power in the hand of politicians. Of course, politicians prefer the latter.
