I did not do that! Religion is neither useless nor just dangerous. It is simply the way most of our civilization was organized for most of the time, and provided the structure in which most people still think today. I don't claim that everyone should adopt my feeble ways instead!

Alright, thanks for clarifying. You also said: >You cannot find truth while using a gnostic interface. Can you elaborate?

The universe does not expose an interface that contains a manual to its API, comments to the source code or tutorial instructions for novice or expert players. There is no source that could give revelations. There is only what one can figure out using reason and observation.

Agreed, but are there tools that exist other than reason and observation?

Can you observe or infer any?

I can barely keep my own life organized, let alone take over the world. Though I am Jewish, so I'm particularly qualified to do so.

As
@jordanbpeterson says, "To take over the world, one must start by cleaning one's own room. Conquer the world one room at a time. Be the order you wish to see in the world."
