| Okay, right. | |
| So it's in reference to a goal. | |
| Or the goal would be the imitation of Christ. | |
| Someone's goal, right? | |
| No, the goal is not the imitation of Christ. | |
| The goal is the heaven or the virtue that results from that. | |
| All right, we'll just finish up this, young lady. | |
| Can be something that doesn't encompass being in congruence with God or being with God. | |
| No, the thing that they want to be in congruence. | |
| That's right. | |
| That's right. | |
| That's good. | |
| Something that doesn't encompass being in congruence with Christ. | |
| Someone's goal, right, can be something that doesn't encompass being in congruence with God or being with God. | |
| No, the thing that they want to be in congruence with is fundamentally equivalent to their God. | |
| So, what makes someone a Christian and what makes someone not a Christian? | |
| That's what I'm trying to figure out. | |
| That's a good question. | |
| Yes. | |
| Yeah, well, okay, I mean, I don't know that I know anything more about morality in an objective sense. | |
| Morality is universally preferable behavior. | |
| That's what it is, right? | |
| And it needs to be universalizable and consistent and logical and achievable and pass the coma test. | |
| I mean, this is all stuff that's in UPB as a whole. | |
| So I still don't know what God is in this formulation. | |
| I certainly don't know what morality is other than Stuff which has a good outcome. | |
| I mean, that's the very subjective measure, right? | |
| What is a good outcome? | |
| For who? | |
| Based on what? | |
| For how long? | |
| You know, and so on, right? | |
| So, I mean, an evil man, like a woman, I suppose, an evil man is a rapist. | |
| A rapist, of course, prefers to be a rapist than not be a rapist, which is what he does, right? | |
| And the evil work that he does. | |
| And so, the system of It's an institutionalized rate benefits him. | |
| Less attractive people benefit from forced marriage. | |
| More attractive people benefit from voluntary marriage. | |
| So, yeah, none of this really goes past basic Socratic skepticism. | |
| All right. | |
| Well, I'll stop here. | |
| Maybe we'll continue. | |
| I do find this stuff interesting. | |
| It is like trying to unravel the Gordian knot of generalized confusion, but that's where the world is, and it's great to have these kinds of debates going on. | |
| If you have any other last questions or comments, I'm very happy to get them. | |

| What do we have? | |
| Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum. | |
| I have not, but I am very proverbs. | |
| I'm very proverbs. | |
| Better than nouns. | |
| Nouns are just things. | |
| Verbs are action. | |
| Knowing the best outcomes for everyone is akin to mysticism. | |
| It is a count of it. | |
| Well, it just invites sophistry. | |
| Whoever can convince you of the glories of their system end up ruling the world and usually destroying it. | |
| All right. | |
| Good faith is a contractual legal term. | |
| Contracts are promises of future actions. | |
| Everyone here signed TOS and made and accepted promises of future actions. | |
| contracts are promises of future actions. | |
| Yeah, but I mean, how many people would have been pro-global warming if they were on the hook for $5 million if global warming failed to materialize? | |
| If they lost everything and were put into bankruptcy and all of that and lost everything, all of their property, if... | |
| I mean, the communists, when they failed to produce greater wealth and capitalism, they didn't sit there and say, oh, well, you know, I have a contract and therefore there are penalties if I'm wrong, right? | |
| They already have their power and they just lie to get the power. | |
| All right. | |
| I will look at an analysis of the book of Proverbs. | |
| I think that's very interesting and I appreciate that. | |
| I appreciate that. | |
| All right. | |
| Thank you everyone so much. | |
| Have yourself a glorious evening. | |
| I appreciate your time tonight and I will talk to you Sunday. |
