Celebrating the collapse of ethics and moral discourse in our transitional time is not a sin

Celebrating the collapse of ethics and moral discourse in our transitional time is not a sin Ethics whether derived from philosophy or religion is ill-founded and impotent and that's OK Priestly ethics derived from religious traditions have scant sway now and that's OK Assertions of moral authority based on Christianaity or any other authority have little power now and that's OK The 19th and 20th century were about deconstructing the hypocritical and philosophically-erroneous foundations of past ethics and morality + Ethics and morality are sub-categories of the foundation of goodness which is located in the choice of values Choosing values is what all people do every minute of their lives This has rarely been considered by those who have written of ethics and morality It is the fruit of the thought of thinkers such as Peirce, Neitzsche and Assagioli + The theory which I have arrived over a lifetime is outlined in the following little work\ More can be found by using the search bok on every page of this blog

Whatever Mitt is for means rolling backward down the Sysiphean hill

Mitt Romney Cop Impersonator & Other Observations

You can examine it by clicking the image or the link below
The reality is that virtually all of Mitt Romney's promises involve strategies and positions that echo exactly what we sought to escape when we elected Barack Obama The last four years have represented a struggle to create a new way forward that will not land us in the mess created by George Bush But all indications suggest Romney=Bush That he will be the willing executor of whatever hoary objectives the right-moving GOP decrees Obama has shown that he can govern and keep us safe in the face of GOP disloyalty and criminality Romney promises no such capacities Faced with a nightmare Choose the President and work to see that others do as well

Debate is NOT Over Until The Difference Is Seen - Obama Has THE Plan

These Tweets will take you to The President's Plan

and remind you that Mr. Romney treats truth as whatever he says it is at the time
When you see that the President does have a plan that adds up and that Mr. Romney promises to roll things back (more often than not) and that his pledges if they stick would change our lives for the worse we will not sit this election out
VOTE OBAMA BIDEN NOV 6 (or before)

Note Sent To Folk Planning a 100th Anniversary Charles Sanders Peirce Event

Themes I would like to see

How does Peirce impact Aristotle's ethics? I believe he opens the way to understand values as ontological and tied to human will.

How does Peirce relate to Nietzsche? I believe both pave the way for the death of religion and its evolution into a global spirituality based on values - lived in the immanent frame.

These are well outside the realm of Peirce studies though not of what can be inferred from reading Peirce.

I am not an academic but I believe academic specialization is one of the main barriers to appreciating the revolution that Peirce and Nietzsche launched and which is now in progress.

It is the move from binary to triadic thinking. The ethical element is my inference and my attempt to build past both N and P.

Supposition masquerading as truth is one bad fruiit of the binary age we are exiting Supposition dwells on what cannot be verified What is true is continuity and the reality of verification within the immanent frame
