Ep3, Reason, Rational, and Religious Thought
When we engage in the use of reason, Rational thought and Religious thought, do we measure our reason against our physical world or our human mind?
Paragraph 6. The reason for this break down is due to the different existences the “why” resides in. We can follow the two different paths that hard science and social science takes with the reasoning of ideas. We can create the following flow of action:
· Fact → Event → Cause → Why.
An example of hard science would be:
· Fact (A released ball drops) → Event (A falling ball) → Cause (Gravity) → Why (Because gravity exists in physical existence).
An example of social science would be:
· Fact (A person looks or thinks differently.) → Event (Murder) → Cause (False-reality ideas) → Why (Because false-reality ideas exists in human thought).
Now we have a mismatch of reason between science and social thought. One connects to the physical world while the other does not. Nevertheless, they both gave their “why.” In the cause and effect ideas of science, physical existence is a uniform and unchanging existence. By its own nature, physical existence is a singular source and directly associated with reality. Physical existence cannot attach false-reality to itself. Our human thought does not have uniformity when we allow ourselves to attach reality to non-reality ideas. What is missing? Well, we have one additional movement in the human mind that physical existence does not have. With social ideas, we have Fact → Event → Cause → Why-1 → Why-2. We then have:
· Fact (A person looks or thinks differently.) → Event (Murder) → Cause (False-reality ideas) → Why-1 (Because false-reality ideas exists in human thought) → Why-2 (False reality exists because of an unaccountable system of thought).
I am going to add an addendum to lift the level of the double “why” flow.
Addendum
· Fact (A person looks or thinks differently.) → Event (Murder) → Cause (An idea that people who look or think differently are evil) → Why-1 (Because false-reality ideas can exist in human thought) → Why-2 (The sliver idea of reality was attached emotionally or reactively without any supporting physical connection).
Notice that the why in science is stable as it rests in physical existence. Notice too that the why-2 of social actions is only stable when our thought system rests in maintaining its relationship with physical existence. Once we break from our physical existence and allow the attachment of reality to non-reality ideas, we end with unstable actions as it rests in the chaos of our minds.

Ep4: Human Survival with our Creator, Physical Existence, Seryla Philosophy
Human Survival with our Creator, Physical Existence
1. Our survival is connected to our physical world. Deist Susannah Newcome wrote, “And as there are no innate Ideas of a God, so likewise we can have no Proof of such a Being a priori: and if there is really such a Being, we can only come to a Knowledge of his Existence, from a Consideration of Existence of Things.” We can come to know our creator and creation from our consideration of physical existence. Physical existence is the source to our knowledge of our creator, as physical existence is our creator. Truth and reality does not come to us from within our minds. The reality of our existence comes to us by our senses and in our maintenance of this reality. We must maintain this relationship to our ideas. Nevertheless, we currently ignore our physical existence when we move the idea of reality around in our minds to our ideas of morality and justice. For us to have accountability of thought, we must stay connected to our physical existence and our reality. It is then that we can progress. Volney wrote, “Let man study these laws, let him understand his own nature, and the nature of the beings that surround him, and he will know the springs of his destiny, the causes of his evils, and the remedies to be applied.”

Seryla Philosophy Introduction Ep1, Accountability to Social Ideas
This is the start of a series that pulls from the book titled, "The Coercive Animal."
The Coercive Animal exist because our ical systems of thought throughout history of humankind have been unaccountable. Our use of reason and rational thought allowed us to place the idea of reality anywhere one senses it to be.
We will learn how ideas work, how they move within our minds that may or may not relate to our reality.
Historically, we have defined coercion as the arbitrary will of one person forced onto another. However, what are arbitrary and non-arbitrary wills? This channel on Seryla Philosophy attempts to remove the ambiguity by taking the arbitrary out of arbitrary.
