Actualized.org is much more intelligently structured than religions. From my understanding, Actualized.org's purpose isn't about making you believe things or providing a moral system to conform to. Religions have a baked-in epistemology, which is faith- and belief-based. That epistemology, ironically, is taken for granted and assumed to be absolute, which makes them less intelligent.

WTF!

@Leo Gura, so, do you love everything about your culture(s)? Certainly, there are things that you don't love. I might help cultivate and develop my culture to make it more open-minded (assuming I can do that), but not necessarily accept biased stuff and conformities. It's like you are saying that to love your friends, you should love their toxic behaviors, and if you don't, then you don't really love them. Well, I can accept them as they are and help them develop themselves, but I won't tolerate or encourage their toxic behavior; otherwise, I would be an idiot. Also, why would I limit myself to loving one culture? It makes no sense. I can love whichever I want. And, yeah, loving a culture is hard when there is too much nonsense in it. Those people will never understand that.

Well, people will fight for their culture because their values align with their culture's values. So, as long as mine aligns mostly with some culture's values, I can imagine a scenario where I get shot in the head for defending it against an actual threat. But I haven't found such a culture yet.

Yeah, I can imagine that. I would helplessly love my hypnosis. My culture would be greater than other cultures for me. I can also imagine myself fighting for other cultures against my culture as well. In reality, I'm drawn toward a culture that is more developed; that's my bias, you could say. I was brought up in different cultures. And honestly, I'm not willing to be shot in the head for any culture on identitarian grounds.

Isn't their love biased? I'm not judging.

Gossiping.

@Xonas Pitfall, their love of their culture comes before their love of the truth. Thus, their culture automatically seems infallible to them.

Fireworks.

Gosh 😣
