Ecclesiastes 1:2

הבל הבלים אמר קהלת, הבל הבלים, הכל הבל: מה יתרון לאדם בכל עמלו שיעמל תחת השמש Vanity of vanities, says Koheleth, transistory vapor.[3] What profit hath man with all his labour, wherein he laboureth, under the sun[4]

Sun and the Moon: Signs of the Times and Seasons

וזרח השמש, ובא השמש, ואל מקומו שואף זורח הוא שם The sun dawns, and the also sun sets, and to its place glides, and there it will dawn.

— 
Koheleth, Ecclesiastes 1:3–4
, transl. mine

The sun sets, therefore it is obviously not a god; it is clearly a subsidiary and dependent power whose (apparent) motion is determined by a higher and more universal law given by a more supreme lawgiver. If you need further proof, Isaac Newton will, at some point in the distant future, demonstrate this by irrefutable mathematical principles of natural philosophy.

We need a second great light to mark the times and to rule the night, and hence the Lunisolar calendars are more natural and powerful than mere solar calendars.

Therefore we will learn the Metonic cycle from those that do dwell by the rivers of Babylon, and adapt it for the Ancient Macedonian Calendar, instead of using the Egyptian solar calendar now in vogue among the Romans.

Nor will we make any graven image, for god is not a man and the poets are liars. Sculptors are poets of stone, and even if they could sculpt or paint a likeness of the sun in all its radiance (they cannot), we would be inclined to disbelieve that it is an accurate representation. These mythologies are not reliable sources. Why watch the flickering shadows cast against the wall by the idolatrous fetishes in your cave, when you could step out into the light of the sun instead? Elevate your intellect to the contemplation of that which is universal and unchanging.

Plato's Laws

Thesis: his renunciation is probably in response to Aristotle, after "the foal" kicked his mother, rendered his criticism and left the Academy. Am I the first to claim this? It seems so obvious upon reading the primary sources: how could this be "original research"? And yet, its not found on wikipedia, and I've not encountered this from the professors of platonic philosophy. Why is that? Because they are

neoplatonists fascinated by "the Republic" and don´t want to let it go, because its "noble lie
s" in support of proto-fascistic elitism and anti-family polyamoristic communism, form the organizational basis for their academies, monasteries, and colleges. These institutions are partial realizations of Plato's earlier ideal, and many of the professors and students don't even know this.

Some background: Rhadamanthus was the legendary lawgiver of Knossos and the Cretan thalassocracy, who instituted gymnasiums and the syssitia (common meals) as a strategy of keeping his men in a state of perpetual war-readiness. This political history of ancient greece is explained by Draft:Cleinias of Crete to Megillos of Sparta and to the Athenian stranger, who is Plato's spokesperson in the dialogue. The interlocutors blame this system for the tradition of greek pederasty, at the end of book III, which they claim "corrupts natural desire" and is responsible for "civil unrest" among the youth.

Basic Errors Modern

The so-called Rennaissance todo of ancient pornographic idolatry in the Italian art schools and plutocratic courts,[citation needed] during the 14th century, This was contemporaneous with the translation of Plato and other greek authors into Latin, and it ought to be called the "zombification" (of graeco-roman imperial mythology) instead of "the renaissance". The pornographic mythologizing was an ancient error that was refuted and rejected by christianity, for good reason. Reviving and zombifying the Roman empire is a modern error. This movement did not give us science, it gave merely gave us Modernity todo, which is to say, style and fashion, art and literary fiction, make believe. Despite claims of the modernists, this movement did not greatly influence the church reformation or the discoveries at the heart of the scientific revolution, which were already underway due to the rediscovery of Aristotle two centuries earlier, the rise of the aristotelian scholastic university and the study of nature and of natural law.

Scientism or "modern science" was an institutional theory formulated by Francis Bacon (who discovered nothing) and developed by Hobbes, Darwin, and the evolutionary biologists and is based on a metaphysical assumption: that there are no specific essences, no knowledge of metaphysics, and no final causes, purposes, or teleology in nature, against all common sense and evidence. Mechanistic philosophy as a replacement for dogmatic church metaphysics.

The scientific revolution on the other hand, resulted from the labors of natural philosophers such as Isaac Newton who practiced science as a virtue. It has been misappropriated by so-called "scientists" who practice it as assumption.

The negative evaluation of Kantian rationalism - especially in its formulation by Fichte - as a "science of hating Judaism", by Saul Ascher has been credited by historian David Nirenberg as foresight into the development of a pseudo-science of Antisemitism that translated the christian dialectic of supercession into the discourse of "critical reason".[11]

    • Alot of other articles in the content field of Judaism are given titles in the "Yinglish" / transliterated hebrew. See below for some examples. No wonder that the Jewish editors seem to have resorted to "Yinglish" and made separate parallel articles, and avoid translating. And an editor like myself who is fluent in hebrew, and trying translate for the benefit of the uneducated and the gentile readership, is typically driven away by the minimalists and eventually will probably give up and start writing in Yinglish or on Hebrew wikipedia instead. While the ignoramuses who enforce the status quo will probably congratulate each other on removing my undue POV so that they can persevere in their ignorance. The readers deserve better.

I added a section /* Jewish laws on the conduct of capital trials */ that should also be included in the Sanhedrin article. Including excerpt from Sanhedrin (tractate) 32a demonstrating that this was an illegal trial according to Jewish law. Moreover, it was an unlawful assembly in its very presence, it being the eve of the Sabbath / Festival. These facts had been mentioned on the talk page, back in 2006. Appalling that it has taken until 2021 to correct this error. Wikipedia ought to stop driving away productive editors writing from a Jewish POV Someone made a quite convenient "harmony of the gospels" table, #Narrative Comparison from the NIV translation. I think this should replace the "Trial" prose section, which I deprecated and split into two sections needing expansion - /* Midnight inquest at Caiaphas' house */, /* Morning arraignment by the "sanhedrin" */
  • After the spring holidays of 2021, I moved on to other subject matter. Starting for the year 5782 which began after rosh hashana 2021, I began the editing on the yearly torah cycle on the hebrew wikipedia. I don't intend to waste much more time here on the english wikipedia on the subject of Hebrew bible until the bias issue is dealt with; I think the rest of you should learn from this case and increase your threshold of tolerance for the minority but notable POV that God exists and that God is one. When I return to editing in the common tongue, it will probably be in the spanish or french wikipedia.

I Will Sing of the Contributor and His Content Disputes

Moral of the story: Disputation and dialectic are a necessary part of this project, but in a successful "content dispute", both and all parties are focused on seeking knowledge, not on winning or losing. Putting our own pride and privelege aside, we seek knowledge in humility, and the winner is the encyclopedia and everyone who edits and reads it. The "contributor" is justified or corrected, the "editor" withdraws or better imroves on the first draft, but no one "wins or loses". The managing "editor" also benefits from having been taught a lesson. I will not humiliate any of my dialectical partners in a scholarly content dispute, I value them. I list these disputes in order to demonstrate how the encyclopedia can be changed for the better, because some of these patterns repeat.
