Intuitive Epistemology Example: Religions

When a Christian is preaching at you, it feels a certain way.

When a Wokist is preaching at you, it feels nearly the exact same way.

This is because they are the same religion. They differ cosmetically, but your gut isn't fooled.


Note that a real body of scholars would have names for the set of properties making up the feeling which identifies a religion like this. "Christianty feels hudlrog and sublang, and likewise Wokism feels sublang and hudlorg." With names you would be able to draw lines through that religion and other phenomena and see what specific features they are tags for.

Since you don't have names, you can only learn by painstakingly re-inventing the wheel. E.g. one isn't religion-specific, but instead the feeling of being preached at.

  1. (modern) Christianity and Wokeism
    both have
    pity of the weak
    as their central tenet


    A Wokeist sees they are born
    into the utmost abundance
    and Christian mores
    makes them feel guilty

    But they cannot make a sacrifice
    to improve the lot of others
    because
    They don't believe in Christ

    So they tell you that *you*
    need to be like Christ
    And nail yourself to a cross
    so they
    feel better

  2. What if women feel bad for holding men back?
    Catholicism in particular gives them a social way to express that and have "closure," at least until next week.

    "some of you had never fell asleep in the middle of the afternoon ad your great grandmas house just to wake up at eight and find all the sáldele y ladies of your family chanting rosaries and pounding their chests sobbingly and saying “mea culpa, mea culpa” in front of a bleeding Christ statue by candlelight and it shows."

    It's not and has never been a suitable ideology for men.

    They probably do
    but they also
    feel bad
    if they hold themselves back

New failcomment system also fails to publish my comments, it's not limited to yours. Keep trying, it will usually work, eventually.
Blogger deliberately trying to kill itself, I expect.
Captchas should be off. If it gives you one anyway, it's against my explicit instructions.
