Why anyone should care that Marxism is being introduced. When people say Marxist, the images of the Orwell novel 1984 come to mind. But how does the marxist ideology affect us today? The reality is that Marxism today isn't about the have versus the have not's. It's now all about us versus them. It has co-oped and molded itself into our social sciences. It has infultrated all that we stand to learn about ourselves. It has changed the very nature of academia with a messed up version of self-destructive power dynamics. In this episode I discuss the very nature of marxism. I introduce the concepts as it was written by Marx and the Frankfurt schools. I address how these concepts have decided to take over our sociology and psychology departments. They've even created their own departments with funded "research" which is disturbing on its own. 00:58:00The Axiom PrinciplenoMarxism,Marxist,Feminism,Sociology,PsychologyThe history of Marxism and the infiltration it has exercised on the soft sciences has polluted the very discovery of the human experience.

We've had a rough couple of years and kicking things off with comedy seems the right way to start 2018. For those that don't have a clue, we'll be discussing meme's, how they work, what they achieve or acomplish, how those that don't like being made fun of label a meme in a darker light, and more.

Psychology plus personal experience. In this podcast I'll probably offend a few people and irritate others. I'm going to be discussing the effects of depression. Depression is a mental affliction that is caused by a weakness of will. It's considered as a mental disorder in psychology for very good reason. Depression can end your life by your own hand. However, I don't considering in the same category as schizophrenia, bi-polar, or any number of mental issues that people seem to not be able to recover from. Depression has a trigger.    In this episode I'll be going over some of what we know about depression and go over my personal experience as well.

The modern world has no more room for ignorant thoughts, ignorant ideals, or ignorant people. We have at our disposal the means to wipe out our entire planet in a flash of light or in a slow decrepid death. It seems a daunting task but how does one fight against ignorance?

What it means and how people act with itSocial justice can be defined as a state or doctrine of egalitarianism. Another definition is the distribution of advantages and disadvantages within a society. Oxford dictionary defines social justice as Justice in terms of the distribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges within a society. But with these definitions, what does that mean? What approach to social justice actually is beneficial to societies as a whole and humanity as a species? In this podcast I analyse the terms and attempt correlate them with the actions of those who champion social justice. The term itself has a stigma from the actions of the champions. To know a thing we must know it's attributes. We walk through the actions of those that champion social justice and why they see it as an ultimate good. 00:59:00The Axiom PrinciplenoSocial Justice,Social,Justice,SJW,ChampionsSocial Justice can be a term that focuses on egalitarian ideals.

How some ideas may be personal and sacred.How can you assault an idea? I think there might be a way where people percieve that an idea that they find valuable is attacked thus is attacking them. However, since when are ideas able to have feelings? The very concept is similar to the way every religion has controlled society for thousands of years. The religion is above cricitism because the value people put into the religion. If their values are challenged the individual translates this into a personal attack which makes it seem as though you can attack the idea. In this episode I join forces with The Free Thought Prophet ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-PMh5W4ET93mftGyx0F8Zw ) to discuss the idea that some thoughts or ideas might be sacred and thus difficult to question.  01:18:00The Axiom PrinciplenoIdeas,violence,values,core values,psychologyIs assaulting an idea the equivalent to violence?

Why has western philosophy adopted the defense of religion?From Ben Affleck to college professors and students, you see a defence of Islam in the frame of fear. Islamaphobia is the term used to describe anyone who dares criticize the Ideology which has been adopted by those seeking to defend their religion. It's interesting that this term even exists. Is there a Christianaphobia, Hindiphobia, or a Buddhistophobia? If there are no phobias of other religions then why is Islam adopting such a position? Perhaps it's because the religious texts are used in modern day political discourse to threaten and intimidate people into submission. The very definition of Islam is to surrender. They mean to surrender to Allah (God) but by which means must one surrender? And if people refuse to surrender, what then?

Hate speech and free speech combinedThe war on free speech is happening across the globe but why? Why would someone attack a fundamental right which has created the great societies that we have today? People have been bullied over the subject of free speech because they profess deep outrage and hurt feelings while demanding silence of their detractors. New laws have been introduced that strip people of the right of speaking any way they choose. But the right to speak comes with it the right to listen. Just like the angry street preacher on the corner proselytizing to anyone that will listen, we can ignore the worst offender while criticizing them in the same breath.

Is it ancient tradition? perhaps from your parents and their religious beliefs? Or was your family atheist to begin with and you've had to develop morality on your own? The theist would have you believe that morality is a gift from their almighty god. However, morality has it's roots in science. Contrary to what theists might tell you, morality is a part of our very nature. We've been able to demonstrate this by analyzing other species and see the moral behaviors in their social groups as well. Building a scientific based morality is the only way to make sure we root our morals in reality. 01:00:00The Axiom Principlenomorality,ethics,science,world views,theismOne of the things that atheists get asked is where we get our morality from.

Moral Relativism vs. ScienceThe feminist argument can be summed up in one phrase. My body, my choice. In the context of abortion, this isn't entirely true. To come to the conclusion of whether abortion is a moral choice or not we must start with something we could consider objectively true from a moral stance. The problem with that is, morality is entirely subjective. So how could there be any middle ground when facing a socially moral conundrum?

Whenever we bring up inequality of the sexes, womens sufferage is the counter argument. When we attempt to discuss opinions others don't share, people are labeled Nazi's, Fascists, or worse. These often ammount to name calling and dismission of the argument. But they aren't really an agrument against what is being said. So why bring it up? Tonight, I discuss why someone would want to leverage the worst of our past to describe our present. 01:06:00The Axiom Principlenoracism,sexism,mysoginy,misandry,naziWhenever we attempt to discuss a current issue the counter seems to be a flashback to what happened in the past to justify the vitriol of today.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/theaxiomprinciple/2017/02/25/a-list-of-attributes-the-qualifiers-of-religious-ideologyEducationhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/theaxiomprinciple/2017/02/25/a-list-of-attributes-the-qualifiers-of-religious-ideology/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/theaxiomprinciple/2017/02/25/a-list-of-attributes-the-qualifiers-of-religious-ideologySat, 25 Feb 2017 00:00:00 GMTA list of attributes. The qualifiers of Religious ideology.Every ideology has dogma that they use to perpetuate the beliefs the group holds. It typically starts out as a word of mouth share between a social group but then manifests into holy writings which capture the essence of the ideology. The religions of old have multiple works which seem to always go back to a source doctrine. The problem is that the new ideologies do not have a source doctrine yet. The christians delayed their bible by 100 years but that was due to a limitation in knowledge of reading and writing. The Muslims had their doctrine created in the lifetime of Muhammed which is largely a result of dictation where word of mouth became written knowledge.  Today, we have an ideology emerging from the rhetoric of PC culture. It seems to have all the same attributes as our older religions. However, they have no central doctrine written down and codified. What they do have is a collection of works which has a central theme. 01:04:00The Axiom PrinciplenoFeminism,feminist,SJW,PC Culture,IslamEach ideology have certain attributes in common.

The core of the new ideology.Many a feminist has argued that the movement stands for equality. It may surprise you but they're right. The movement itself does stand for equality of the sexes. The problem is the vision of equality differs from the feminist to the non-feminist or anti-feminist if you prefer. This podcast will focus on the core of feminism. I'll touch the arguments but the arguments aren't the problem. They are symptoms of the root of feminism. In this episode I will address the arguments, I will address the core, and I'll attempt to view things in a feminist lens. It always helps to understand a thing if you can view it from their perspective. 01:03:00The Axiom Principlenofeminism,anti-feminism,SJW,religion,skepticismFeminism is the core of the current social justice movement.

But when you are rejected from the realm of ideas what recourse do you have? There might be good reason you were rejected, then again, maybe not. What has happened today is those that have a flawed hypothesis move forward with creating their own "peer review" in an effort to legitimize the narrative they so desperately want to be true. Today, we have new movement that has all but destroyed the purpose of peer review. They have created their own echo chambers in the area of academic persuits of knowledge. This episode will cover just how pervasive this phenominon has become and perhaps offer ways we can combat the polution of ideological thinking. 01:16:00The Axiom PrinciplenoLBGT Studies,Gender Studies,Feminism,Creationism,Cultural MarxismPeer reviewed research has long been the gold standard of scientific endeavors.

I wonder how accurate given the recent turn of events. Conspiracies sometimes have a grain of truth to them that lead people to believe in them. Similar to superstitions or religions, conspiracies are part belief, part faith, and part truth. Exploring cultural Marxism starts with a look into what Cultural Marxism is and how it has evolved. I dive into some research that confirms my suspicions that Cultural Marxism is the ideology driving us to ruin. 01:12:00The Axiom PrinciplenoCultural Marxism,Feminism,ideologies,sophistry,SJWsIs cultural Marxism a conspiracy theory or a harsh reality?

There are three main reasons one converts to ideologies; Trauma, Loneliness, and Depression. In this podcast I will discuss the research I have read and compare it to our current ideologies. There are distinct parallels that you can derive from ancient religions and the new ones. Conversion from no belief, or other beliefs, is what brings up the numbers in any ideology. How they go about that is all in the approach those that lead the dogma use. 01:00:00The Axiom PrinciplenoFear,loneliness,depression,trauma,religionThere are three distinct reasons people convert from little to no belief, to devout followers.

The Free Thought Prophet podcast joins me as we explore Free Will and how it complicates the claims for the existence of God.

The focus on emotional response over rational thought destroys a person’s ability to reason while simultaneously embracing the bliss of ignorance. One of the constant debasements of the scientific method is when someone attempts to reverse the process.  In this next episode I address the major problems we face with our culture embracing ignorance while ignoring reality.

(Special Guest @SkepticNikki)Most people that contend with believers of the older religions understand why using the books of individual’s faith is absurd. In most cases, it is seen as a circular argument. A self-defeating point where the book tells them something is true and how do they know, because the book tells them so. However, there are things that you can leverage the holy book for. You can use the bible, for example, as evidence of thought during the time of its writing. You can even collect the potential personalities of the writer as their writing style comes through. Also, there are ways to dismantle the arguments presented by using the holy book as evidence for the argument. 01:20:00The Axiom Principlenoreligion,atheism,holy books,anthropology,archeologyMost people that contend with believers of the older religions understand why using the books of individual’s faith is absurd.

In this show I will go over those indicators in detail and focus on aspects that link behaviors to victim thought. In the case of ideologies, this victim mentality is used as a tool to align the group while out-grouping anyone that is perceived as the attacker or oppressor of the group assumed to be victimized. This episode will offer an analysis of the victim mentality and how it functions. There are two expressions of victim mentality which will be covered as well. 01:00:00The Axiom Principlenovictim mentality,victim,theism,atheism,ideologiesVictim mentality is a learned behavior and a psychological association to negative thinking.

Hate speech is a subjective term that is used to call out attacks, threats, or insults a person or group. It can come in many forms but always focuses on several main indicators of speech that could classify what you say as hate speech. In the new religions of the world, this subjective phrase has been used as blasphemy was used in the older religions. Essentially, if your feelings are hurt, it’s hate speech. Therefore, you are wrong because it’s hate speech.

How to determine what qualifies as an ideology.Ideologies have evolved over the course of our human history into religious groups that push forth a very toxic and regressive view of humanity. The evolution of ideologies is what this episode is about. Identifying them helps in understanding them and ultimately finding the flaws that make them regressive. Once you understand where they came from you can understand where they want to go and determine for yourself if they are beneficial or harmful to our human society. It is far more important to understand the ideology and the thought behind it than to dismantle and attack it. As Sun Tzu said “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.” 00:30:00The Axiom Principlenoideologies,religion,atheim,philosophy,cultureSeveral new ideologies have emerged and start from the political and social movements of the civil rights and feminist movements.
