Since the beginning of time free thinking can be define as anyone who did not conform to status qua-wherever was social, political or any kind though outside, like Jews refusing to accept Christianity or Islam prescription of the Messiah or political moments from the right or left in19 century. The Blog follows the spirit of Spinoza which challenge not only his own Hebrew roots, but also Christianity with the tolerance of Montaigne. We dedicate this blog to all them were burn for dare to ask.

God, Evolution and the Polis
One big
misconception and used today, by many when they are speaking about evolution,
if was a theory, which need some verification. To convey ideas is very
important to make simple, clear, transparent and précises. When we are speaking of the scientific method,
it’s not just about the falsification, but control, we have a reference, while
Darwin in the Origin of Species spoke the mechanism was natural selection, and
while itself become complicated idea, natural selection is not just a
biological process, but the environment, internal and social behaviors (Kropotkin’s
Mutual Aid, and recent time De Waal) . The fundamental verification: DNA, in
Humans around 30,000 and Mosquito 50,000, one of the factor of Human mortality
being complicated, the cells continuous mutation (due to external or continues
error) make difficult to handle, while stripes are made from individual immunology
(the cells hide from our natural self-defense mechanism), to DNA repair or
modification, one underline factor the capacity of this cells for Mutation, one
of the fundamental factors driven Natural Selection. We can say with full
certain the Evolution is a fact, as life is bound by the physical experience,
like gravity being one of the fundamental forces, evolution is one of the fundamental
fact science can explain a phenomenon, while science is not just the only
source of knowledge (epistemology), and science may explain everything or not, science
advantage verification and reproducible.
While as danger
to make this fact as an ideology, example and consequences, the Indus valley
civilization, with all their gods, there was not hierarchy and the collapse,
like Egypt, Mesopotamia, a drought, the Maya Civilization abandon their cities
because could not be sustain—they destroy the environment, where in case Indus
Valley climate change, not just them, but extend to Egypt, like of water brought
the civilization down.
In the Athenian constitution,
the reason of the creation of the constitution by Solon and extended Peraclies,
was to deal with poverty, the fact the wealthy bound the poor by big percent
above the original amount interest (a fundamental flaw of the Polis was the citizenship
was male—women excluded and slaves where the drive the economics of the cities),
they created a city bureaucracy, and by paying from Jurors to positions given
poor access to power.
To be consider
as a Polis need to have the angora (public space—the center of the live, where
general assembly, the market was the political center, despise of the demagogues
use the same space to create an opinion), intuitions the Athenians ships stock
with the poor, but pay, the temples, library where become this institutions,
the houses where equal distribution given sense of equality, and in this
assemblies they send themselves to wars, democracy need assemblies, public
spaces and public building, and participation—not political parties, while
factions where created, the randomness and limiting the occupants of office by
time, never to be in the position, again, more important, the salary given the
poor access to participated.

Race and Identity
The neo-liberal economic model implemented in US by Regan and Thatcher in
U.K (specifically trickle-down economics, where cutting taxes on the they will
decided where the monies will be utilized, the fallacy, the wealthy will invest
when cost is too high and because whether is a single or family consumption goes
so far, on the other hand because their objective is to maximizes their wealth,
hence trying to minimize the cost, of course the issue, society based on consumption
if the product does not move created crises by 1930´s or chain reaction of
2008), while their implementation was based on believe, economics is not a
sciences, economics is values believe, dress by mathematical descriptions.
The end result, the shift into a consumer economics, created such unstable,
unequal society, and the system does not have mechanism, retrain or shift
individuals, but a constant is to blame failure to the other, in Common Cause
the glue in US was races in Europe was Antisemitic.
In Europe, the reality of mass scale industrial murder carries by state
and individuals, become a permanent reality, while the have moments the extreme
right and the right to deny, where in the left try to minimize, still can no be ignore.
In the US, the 500 years of slaves, from colony where slaves had been
institutions through history (Iliad, slaves are mainly women taken as booty of
war: Chryseis (1:12–3, 29–30, 111–5), Briseis (2:688–9), Diomede (6:654–5),
Iphis (6:666–8) and Hecamede (11:624–7)), while anyone in this position, the
slave in Greek cities used in Agriculture (Finley (1997), p.149), in many case
mean a death sentences working in mines (Poroi (On Revenues), 4; Garlan, p.147).
As bounty was customs under Christians and Islam, but introduction in
British Colonies in Americas based on race, when in the original declaration,
the weight of the political power of the white man was 11/2 of the average vote,
just because the slave ownership, the rotunda of the US congress was built with
slave labour, including the wealth of many Educational Institutions were based
on slave ownership.
After 1864, the question about slave become a question of race, the US
never have come to terms about this actions, while legal manner did not existence,
the prejudices were transfer in to the colour of the skin.
After the 1963 of Civil Rights, today in sense has not alter, from while
policy have power trips, in many case, they used with mix of race to basically
to gun down, African Americans or anyone wo do fit their prejudices of race.

Customize Economy
Hannah Arendt in
Origen Totalitarianism suggested, because abnormal situation the Jews were,
situated, by identified with adulteress (Origin of Antisemitism, Israelowitz
2016) in Canonical law in 420 CE. The hierarchy of the Feudal Society base in
Agriculture, when mass production enter, with press for book production, the Artesian—Customize
economy of the cities, since the many of the cities state of the Greek and
Roman was based on Slaves, the Medieval city based on Guilds and Artesian
become left behind in many case obsolete.
While, the mass
production taken two or fourth Generations to be affected, in because still the
need of unskilled workers, the moving of the peasant to crown the cities,
producing social tensions, the work in Glass in the middle 19th and
20th Century Organic chemistry rise of pharma, bring the specialize
economy, begin to reproduce the customize economy, the only group able to
adapted to specialize and mobile society, were the Jews, because the law had
put situation of creating their own networks in general the cities, while in
Eastern Europe, the Pale created by Russian Czarina Catherine, limited to small
villages, where the economy—forces them to be closes to peasants—limiting to
small middle men, peddlers and some cases work the land in limited capacity.
Technology in
this stage have revived this customize economy, only few with specialize skills
are able to function. The Arab Spring, especially in Syria, because the climate
changes due to Human activity, creating
a draw forcing peasant to move into the cities, lack of skill and educations
created the social pressure, and the outside force created US invasion of Iraq
created the perfect storm.
While the
solution as Social approach, where free access to Education or training Models for
solution exist like Open Polytechnic in New Zealand, Open Research Institutes
like Plank Institute in Germany, technical training using Community College or
using Medical Hospital to training MD, Nurses, Biotechnology, Biology and
Chemistry or Veterinarian clinics, the infrastructure already exist, investment in Libraries and using the facility
for educational centers, and community gathering, community gardens not only for food
production, but as learning institutions. While just a beginning, since this customize
economy began to affect a national salary, so anyone can explore and pursue
his/her talent, everyone have, the issue to making a living stop, but with the limited
jobs due to automation of the mass production economy and shift to the customize
economy, as producing an inequality, which will be the seeds for the next
revolution.
Society needs to
invest in Renewal energy, Sun, wind, hydro, Bio-gas, public investment to
Hyperloop and Rail, from street cards to metros, the used of vertical farming—a
society which see the environment from recycle to everyday life, nature is our
allied and we are care takers, we need to leave our surrenders and environment in better shape the we inherent, for us and
the next generations, if we are to terraform new worlds we need to understand,
our actions have consequences and two we are not alone, economy base on self-management
and cooperatives.
