Phil Beaver seeks to collaborate on the-objective-truth, which can only be discovered. The comment box below invites readers to write.
"Civic"
refers to citizens who collaborate for individual
happiness with civic integrity more than for the city, state, nation, or
society.
Consider writing a personal
paraphrase of the preamble, which offers fellow citizens mutual appreciation: For discussion, I convert the preamble’s predicate phrases to nouns and
paraphrase it for my interpretation of its proposal as follows We the People of the United States proffer &
practice 5 public disciplines —- integrity, justice, safety, strength, and
prosperity, “in order to” encourage & facilitate
responsible-human-independence “to ourselves and our Posterity”. I want to improve my interpretation by listening to
other citizens and their interpretations yet would preserve the original, 1787,
text, unless it is amended by the people.
It seems the
Supreme Court occasionally refers to it, and no one has challenged whether or
not the preamble is a legal statement. The fact that it changed this
independent country from a confederation of states to a union of states
deliberately managed by disciplined fellow citizens convinces me the preamble is
legal. Equity in opportunity and outcome is shared by the people who
collaborate for human justice.
Every citizen
has equal opportunity to either trust-in and collaborate-on the goals stated in
the preamble or be dissident to the agreement. I think 2/3 of citizens try
somewhat to use the preamble but many do not articulate commitment to the
goals. However, it seems less than 2/3 understand that “posterity” implies
grandchildren. “Freedom of religion,” which fellow citizens have no means to
discipline, oppresses freedom to develop integrity.
Selected theme from this month
3 Democrat-Party subjects in Tennessee rebuke U.S. civil
order: the republic
Social democracy: Most
European citizens, especially the British, neither comprehend nor advocate the
United States republic. Since the Bloody Revolution in France, Europe has been
influenced by human progressivism: the theory that each newborn has the power,
the energy, and the authority to develop the way of living they prefer, at each
stage of their lifetime.
To accommodate this principle, government must provide social democracy: impose
kindness, tolerance, and largess to everybody. However, a physics’ progeny, economics,
constrains governments from delivering social democracy. A human-being can&
may work to make possible each breath they take or pursue dependency. Many citizens choose dependency. Consequently, governments seek assistance, usually from the false source:
religion or ideology. Social democracy is also a false ideology.
Gone is the Anglo-American common good (2000 years old,
according to 1 Corinthians 12:7), which is frequently credited to John Locke. Locke
opposed Sir Robert Filmer’s Gensis-1 argument for the divine right of kings, advocating
individual rights to life, liberty, and property. The Americans, in 1774
promoted life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. To this day, elite
politicians overlook the Genesis-1 suggestion of the obvious: as the most
powerful species on earth, only humankind can& may pursue comprehensive
safety and security to life (CSSL). No government can warrant liberty, property, or
happiness, let alone life.
The 1787 U.S. Constitution proffers a public culture to
pursue CSSL. The civic-citizens among “We the People of the Unites States”, in
self-interest, pursue the public integrity that is required to develop
statutory justice. “Civic” refers to reliability in connections and transactions.
When injustice is discovered, civic-citizens amend the constitution to pursue
justice. Fellow-citizens who are derelict to justice invite subjugation to civil& criminal law and are encouraged to reform. The United States republic is distinct in the
world, because of the constitutional provision to pursue statutory justice
rather than settle for judicial opinion (legal precedent). The key phrase in the
intentions-sentence in the U.S. Constitution is “to ourselves and our Posterity”
– a continuum of civic-citizens among We the People of the United States. Citizens who do not commit to U.S. intentions ought not be licensed to vote.
Since the late 1960s, for 55 years, the U.S. has been influenced
by a dark force I call “Alinsky-Marxist organization”, AMO. The principle is
that a minority interest may dominate public-life by convincing recruits to
cause critical disturbances to which the
public will yield. Both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are students of Saul
Alinsky. Their influence affects most of the Democrat Party and injures AMO soldiers.
For the AMO recruit, an ancient Roman public-proverb applies: Don’t upset the apple
cart.
Legislators who do not comprehend the-United-States-republic
and are duped by European social-democracy or by AMO can& may resign or
reform. The civic-citizens of the U.S. are establishing, at last, the 1787 U.S.
intentions: responsible human independence (RHI) as suggested in Genesis
1:26-28 (NIV). Ancient scholars interpreted Mesopotamian political philosophy
more than 5,500 years old. The rest of the Bible opines about the consequences of not choosing to pursue RHI.
The civic-citizens of the U.S. have developed RHI since
1789, when operations began with 11 states. What’s new is articulation of the
importance of the United States republic to each citizen. Aliens to the U.S.
citizen want to impose the chaos of social-democracy. Members of the U.S. republic
will not allow it. The 3 legislators in Tennessee are experiencing the consequences of AMO soldiering, a role they were not elected to perform.
News
Congress is effective when the majority voters are
civic-citizens. (Valid each in public and in Congress.) “Civic” means reliable
in human connections& transactions. Reliability is in the citizen’s
self-interest, because fellow-citizens, including derelicts, resist
dubiousness. Civic-citizens practice, facilitate& encourage
responsible-human-independence “to ourselves& our Posterity”. So far,
Education Departments and care-providers do not inculcate these principles in
United-States’ youth& adults. European images -- license to “liberty”,
eroded American independence no alien can perceive. Consequently, less than 50%
of American voters are civic-citizens. Most voters neglect the self-interest of
RHI and yield to higher power – the-God, or government, or a construct. Consequently,
congress cannot uphold the civic-culture that is proffered in the United States
Constitution. Yellen can defy the Congress that approves her budget, because
the alien Democrat Party would prevent impeachment. Only an awakening-to and
reform-by the civic-citizens who vote against their own self-interest can
reverse the chaos the Biden administration is imposing on the United States.
Acceptance of majority RHI, as proposed in the 1787 U.S. Constitution (and in
Genesis 1:26-28, a non-Judeo-Christian political philosophy) can& may
effect reform in a very short time – perhaps about 2 years. Senator Cassidy
expresses RHI, and Yellen could, too, by resigning from a corrupt
administration. #Preambler
I am disappointed that, so far, the public defense is not
drawing attention to the perception The Epoch Times presented in their
documentary months ago:
The Capital Police voluntarily opened the Capitol doors and let the public in.
Because of the mob actions going on outside, the coincident entry seems like
entrapment by the government. #Preambler
Columns
This
is my first chance to learn beyond the flash announcement of the Tennessee happening.
It
seems a matter of constitutional ignorance more than comprehension.
Europeans
and many Americans do not accept that the U.S. Constitution guarantees a
republican form of government: the U.S. civic-citizen commits to pursue order
under statutory justice. In other words, each generation of the faction, We the
People of the United States, can& may improve the written law. Europeans,
the NYT, and non-civic citizens want to impose on America democracy:
civil-chaos according to the temporal majority. Thereby, neither kindness nor
justice to fellow-citizens is possible. In this paragraph neither
"republican" nor "democracy" refers to a political party:
Republican or Democrat.
Turning
now, to the opinion column, "Activists waved signs in the statehouse
gallery, and Representatives Justin Jones, Gloria Johnson and Justin J.
Pearson, all Democrats, led them in chants from the House floor during breaks.
Between bills, the lawmakers also approached the podium to speak. They did not
wait to be formally recognized."
The
3 Democrats behaved like anarchists and deserve to suffer the rules of order.
The NYT would like to benefit from chaos.

hope this helps calm what seems alarming.

quora.com/unanswered/How-important-are-the-principles-of-human-flourishing-to-each-person-to-society-and-Science-and-Technology?
by Almarez,
Justin Paul B
The Question: How important are the principles of human
flourishing to each person to society and Science and Technology?
Answer: it is critical for each infant to-be-reared-to-choose
civic-integrity to their person, to society, to research, and to technology.
I changed “science” to “research” to express personal reliability. “Science”
means whatever the writer asserts -- often statistical analysis of interviews
designed to support an opinion: “research” examines the-ineluctable-evidence
and reports reliable conclusions, often, “We still don’t know”.
These principles are not new. Sumer civilization, about 5,500 years ago,
suggested that the gods left to humankind the responsibility for comprehensive
safety& security to life on earth. This human opportunity I call
“responsible-human-independence” or RHI. Research since then has humankind
preparing to colonize Mars in 10 years, while economic tribalism invites
darkness to Earth.
Ancient polytheisms gave way to tribal monotheism, and 3,000 years ago, scribes
of Genesis 1:26-28, suggested a God that willed
RHI to humankind. Quoting the Bible, NIV, “Let us make mankind in our
image, in our likeness, so that they may rule [life on earth]”. In my
view, “may”, expressed by the-God,
implies “can”. That is, since person has ultimate psychology, they can& may
choose to rule their behavior during their life. I accept the message: I
can& may constrain chaos in my daily choices.
It is important for society to accept that, without education to these
principles, each person may choose dependency rather than pursue RHI.
Dependencies include, for examples, passivism, arrogant-religiosity,
indolence, crime, tyranny, evil, and worse. Persons who pursue civic-integrity
practice, facilitate& encourage RHI. They aid government pursuit of
statutory-justice based on ineluctable-evidence. Ineluctable means not to be
avoided, changed, escaped, neglected, rationalized, or resisted.
Statutory-justice reaches/attains the-ineluctable-truth. Civic-citizens hope
dependent-fellow-citizens reform to RHI.
Many people interpret Genesis 1:26-28 as free will. However,
if we view the-God as
experiences& observations-of-consequences-of-human-choices, can& may
seems an invitation to self-interested RHI rather than freedom to negative
choices. For example, by puberty, a male who is reared to pursue RHI serenely
chooses intimacy with lifetime monogamy. He prevents sex, unless he& she
share civil appreciation for life to any offspring.
It takes a quarter century for a human-being to acquire the
comprehension& intention to pursue the civic-integrity that facilitates
RHI. Acceptance& acceleration of these principles to every Education
Department can& may initiate human flourishing at the leading edge of
300,000 years of homo sapiens development, including the recent 10,000 years
with the grammar needed to develop RHI.

quora.com/What-is-the-relevance-of-ethics-in-research?
by Sinovuyo Mbonana
Humankind has known for about 5,500 years that practicing,
facilitating& encouraging civic-integrity can& may
establish comprehensive safety& security on earth, so that most
individuals can responsibly-pursue the happiness they perceive rather than
submit to someone else’s image for their life. Humankind’s purpose is to
establish& maintain each person’s opportunity to discover and pursue
responsible-human-independence (RHI). “Civic” expresses reliability in living
connections& transactions.
Each newborn person has 2 conditions: total dependency and original
ignorance. They can& may live to discover their unique path to the
civic-integrity that is required for RHI. However, that lifetime-achievement is
almost impossible, for three social reasons: ethics, education&
gullibility.
First, scholars
ethically serve their profession
rather than aid humankind. Thus, in
each field, scholars compete to originate new ideas/technology rather than to
discover& share the-ineluctable-truth. “Ineluctable” means: not to be
avoided, changed, escaped, neglected, rationalized, or resisted. In competitive
endeavors, scholars invent rules broadly received as “ethics”. Ethics distracts
scholars from integrity. The consequence is systematic oppression.
Fellow-scholars stonewall creators who are not accepted by the profession.
For example, philosophy seems to obfuscate "ineluctable+truth":
“Ineluctable” usage, yes, but the
combination with “truth”, no. However, “ineluctable truth” was published in
1906. So far, scholars protect the public from ineluctable truth. Why do
philosophy-scholars reject thinkers who express “ineluctable truth”? I suggest
that the philosopher who would dare address truth -- not to be avoided,
changed, escaped, neglected, rationalized, or resisted, would be resisting the
ethics of philosophy, perhaps in order to favor civic-integrity, but at great
professional cost. That is, to aid humankind in its quest for the RHI needed to
avoid slavery, no matter what it cost the ineluctable-truth-advocate.
Second, Education
Departments and most parents do not facilitate& encourage their youth to
acquire the comprehension& intention to develop before dying their person
unto their responsible unique-happiness. Ethical systems inculcate egocentric-competitiveness
rather than civic-integrity for RHI; adult-satisfaction rather than
comprehensive safety& security to self& descendants; relief for dying rather than perfection for living.
Third, humankind’s
responsibility to comprehensive safety& security on earth was discovered
5,500 years ago and developed in codes-of-law featuring acceptance that not all citizens will pursue RHI and commitment that civic-citizens ought-to
practice, facilitate, and encourage civic-integrity. However, unhappily, most
civic-citizens are gullible to higher power: they hope that sooner or later,
either government or the-God will usurp their responsibility to the
civic-integrity that will empower their unique, personal happiness before
death. Thus, so, far, civic-citizens have not effected RHI. And I know of only
one proposal in history to commit to the civic-integrity that is required for
RHI. The 1787 United States Constitution proposes public-integrity in order to
establish and maintain RHI “to ourselves and our Posterity”, where posterity
includes descendants and legal immigrants.
When most fellow-citizens accept that civic-integrity is a
self-interest that empowers responsible pursuit of personal happiness rather
than subjugation to civil rules, the ineluctable-evidence that discloses the
truth will overcome ethics. Restoration of the United States 1787 intentions
can happen rapidly, once a majority of citizens discover and embrace civic-integrity.
This reform, from ethics to integrity, can happen, on an accelerated schedule,
anywhere on earth.
Share: The civic-people in any country can& may establish
responsible-human-independence (RHI), by effecting the intentions stated in the
1787 United States Constitution, improved to ineluctable-evidence that has been
discovered in these 236 years.

quora.com/What-is-the-concept-of-good-governance?
by Bernandita Orag
About 5,500 years ago, a Mesopotamian civilization accepted
that only humankind can pursue comprehensive safety& security to life on
earth. There are 2 threats to security: the-laws-of-physics and negative human
choice.
During a couple millennia, a series of law codes to address
the-laws-of-physics progressed to the Code of Hammurabi, famously eye-for-eye
harshness that renders able citizens disabled. In other words, they accepted
both individual responsible-human-independence (RHI) and that some fellow-citizens
would insist on dependencies, such as crime.
A subsequent civilization accepted that a civic-citizen
neither initiates nor accommodates harm to or from any person or organization.
In modernity, legislators accept that dependencies can&
may be discouraged but prefer offender-reform rather than harsh punishment.
However, RHI is neglected if not avoided in practice, facilitation, and
encouragement. Elites encourage fellow-citizens to rely on higher power for
safety& security – depend on their government or their-God to usurp RHI.
RHI cannot be usurped.
The government that practices, facilitates, and encourages
RHI, without suppressing responsible pursuit of the happiness the civic-citizen
perceives is good. “Civic” expresses reliability in human connections&
transactions.
Sharing: Good governance assures the civic-citizen can

dictates. “Civic” expresses responsibility in connections& transactions.

quora.com/What-is-freedom-and-can-we-really-be-free?
by Emir
Merriam-Webster online informs us freedom is “the absence of
necessity, coercion, or constraint in choice or action”. No such way of living
exists. Each person may choose civic-living; “civic” means reliability in human
connections& transactions.
A person is not free to reject oxygen, food, and waste
disposal. The comprehensive cost of these provisions is prohibitive if left to
the individual. However, humankind has developed systems wherein responsibly
breathing, eating, and toilet – basic necessities – are mostly taken for
granted.
The laws-of-physics& progeny (physics) ground
necessities. Physics does not respond to reason. Thus, a person can neither
decide they no longer need food nor speculate that they are the opposite gender
and choose to change. People must conform to physics. Fortunately most
people can do so, especially in the United States.
The ancients knew that every human being can& may be a
civic-citizen, by neither initiating nor accommodating harm to or from any
fellow citizen. The first requirement is to responsibly earn the way of living
the citizen wants, accepting any limitations physics has imposed on the person.
Not all citizens participate. Some choose a dependency, such
as crime. Therefore, there must be law codes and enforcement. Civic-citizens
must pay the tax required to fund statutory-justice.
The civic-citizen accepts the power, the energy, and the
authority to comprehend and commit-to the duties necessary to responsibly
pursue the happiness they prefer, rather than accept what some bureaucrat might
offer. Thus, they practice civic-independence
rather than freedom.
Fortunate is the child whose care-givers impart
comprehension& intention to responsible-human-independence (RHI). A few
RHI-citizens perfect their person before dying.
“Freedom” is just another word tyrants use to control people. Civic-independence
is a way of living that care-givers, especially educators, can& may
inculcate in youth and adults.
Consider United States tyranny, accommodated in 1788. By
1763, citizens realized they were being enslaved by England to oversee English enterprise
including the African slave trade. By 1774, the 13 English colonies organized
and claimed statehood. In 1784, the 13 states ratified independence from
England. By 1787, 12 states realized they needed a central government that
could usurp neither powers of-the-states nor of the-people-in their states and
in the united country. However, British loyalists who did not return to England
used popular Protestant tradition to persuade the states to mimic the 1689
English bill of rights. The consequence was 1789 restoration of legislative freedom of religion. Instead
of reserving religious-choice to adult privacy, Congress elected divinity unlike
Parliament’s constitutional provision (26 seats to bishops to the Church of
England). This tyranny can be corrected by amending the U.S. religious practice
clause from “preventing” to “promoting”, re-establishing personal religious independence
in America.
Elites tout freedom while civic-citizens practice
independence. So far, in the United States, otherwise civic-citizens
egregiously accommodate tyranny: Congressional freedom of religion.

religion.

Consider Code of Ur-Nammu -
Wikipedia. I think the polytheistic Sumerians must have accept that
their gods managed the heavens and would not impose governance on earth. Thus,
they wrote codes of law that expressed civic-integrity to citizens, recognizing
that not all citizens would aid justice. The civic-citizens pursued statutory
justice in order to constrain dependent& harmful neighbors. Successive king
improved the law codes, which after Babylonian conquest became the Code of
Hammurabi. Punishments for harm were harsh, often rendering the offender unable
to work.
The ancient principle, individual
responsible-human-independence (RHI), which neither the-God nor government can
usurp, can& may be adopted today. In fact, the 1787 United States
Constitution profess an RHI culture. It has been repressed by the
unconstitutional religion clauses imposed in the 1791 Bill of Rights. This
tyranny can be reversed by amending “preventing” to “promoting” in the
religious-practice clause.

quora.com/How-can-we-define-relativism?
by Mitia Razafindrakoto
Thank you for a great question.
We can start with merriam-webster online, which informs us:
1) a: a theory that knowledge is relative to the limited
nature of the mind and the conditions of knowing; b: a view that ethical truths depend on the individuals and groups
holding them; 2) relativity. Let me illustrate these 3 points as I perceive
them.
First, consider the authentic Jesus. It seems to me, he was a man who,
on debating Moses’ law, perceived that a human-being is as perfectible as
whatever controls the consequences of human choice. Therefore, a person
can& may develop the practice of acting only for the-good. When the-good
cannot be discerned, he or she risks action only to preserve life. Thus, a
homeowner does not kill a burglar who would never harm anyone’s body. The
person who believes Jesus’s purpose was to redeem his or her soul may not take
seriously Jesus’ influence to the-good. A more direct example of Jesus’
civic-influence is in Matthew 19:3-8. “Civic” means reliability in human being
(verb) more than conformity to rules or civility.
Second, a Christian church (group of like-minded people) might be expected
to value Jesus for salvation of souls and neglect the-civic-Jesus’ guidance. On
the other hand, a church can be both spiritual and civic and thus do the work
to comprehend and apply Jesus’ guidance to the-good for all generations.
Third, Albert Einstein discovered that speed or momentum is measurable
only relative to an object and the speed of light is a constant that is
measurable from all objects. This principle holds for the-good. That is,
the-good is ineluctable and not subject to psychological processes, such as
reason, belief, revelation, consensus, and other human evaluations.
These considerations suggest that only
ineluctable-evidence justifies choice. Ineluctable means: not to be avoided,
changed, escaped, neglected, rationalized, or resisted. The-ineluctable-truth
exists, and humankind’s duty is to discover its positive applications. For
example, nuclear reactions can be used to produce electricity.

Don't believe: Consider a couple observations. First,
traffic has never been more cooperatively jammed. Second, churches have never
seemed as declining. Third, government has never seemed more ruthless. Fourth,
global government seeks to destroy the United States Constitution.
If true, what do these observations mean? First, civic-citizens are
resilient& reliable. Second, most civic-citizens at last accept that
churches work to grow themselves on humankind's 10%. Third, civic-citizens
resist governments that seek to control their other 90% of income. Fourth, U.S.
civic-citizens are woke to globalist government dominating the Democratic
Party.
Use your own awareness to improve my cryptic analysis and realize that the
United States is not like other nations& worlds. The U.S. is a federation
of 50 independent states. Since globalism, rather than Constitutionalism,
dominates California, civic-citizens there are exiting. Since small-government
has been Florida's policy for decades, civic-citizens are moving there. Even
though Ron Desantis is one of a Christian family, he also practices,
facilitates& encourages responsible-human-independence (RHI). He accepts
the "may" that seems willed in Genesis 1:26-28, NIV.
Economics matter. Mark Perry analyzed domestic migration in 2021 and reported
not religion but economic opportunity as a motive;

I speculate that is because civic-citizens regard religion a private pursuit.
Civic-citizens relocate for better economic opportunities, and Perry's study
shows that Democratic-Party-dominated-states ruin civic-family opportunities:
So they leave.
There are a couple other factors that occurred to me as I approach age 80 (June
20). Christianity has been a serious problem in my life. As an adolescent
reading the Bible, I felt the-God would not fear self so much as to threaten
me. At age 79, I perceive (don't know) that all these years the-civic-Jesus and
the-metaphysical-Jesus (perhaps the-God) have influenced Phil Beaver to
the-good, while "Christ" flummoxes me with civic-contradictions.
"Civic" expresses reliability in human connections& transactions.
Christ is the church's construct, while Jesus is made clear in the faces&
expressions of the continuum of civic-fellow citizens: Agathon in 430 B.C., Ralph
Waldo Emerson in his age, and neighbors like you and yours, Cleve, in my age. I
could never have perceived& articulated these ideas if this previously
