Not that I wish by any means to deny, that the mental life of individuals and peoples is also in conformity with law, as is the object of philosophical, philological, historical, moral, and social sciences to establish.

That was the first major social sciences conference at which social scientists from all cultures wanted to reach a consensus on whether we can continue to pursue a national course in the social sciences or whether we need a cosmopolitan path that also connects us in a new way.

Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.

Sitting on my window sill life is so beautiful

No, this customary aim of research by excavators is completely foreign to the historical work with which I am occupied... my sole and only aim is to be able to establish a historical fact, on which I disagree with some eminent historians and geographers.

The social sciences, I thought, needed the same kind of rigor and the same mathematical underpinnings that had made the ""hard"" sciences so brilliantly successful.

The notion that every well educated person would have a mastery of at least the basic elements of the humanities, sciences, and social sciences is a far cry from the specialized education that most students today receive, particularly in the research universities.

Fundamental of Liar Chapter CXIII: Denial
Deny it with smile, deny it with silence
Deny it with elegance, deny it with distraction
Deny it with anger, deny it with challenge
Deny it with promise, deny it with comfort
Deny it with tear, deny it with emotion
Deny it with effort, deny it with cruelty
Deny it with forget, deny it with indifferent
Deny it with joke, deny it with lie

Every great deed of which history tells us, every mighty passion which art can represent, every picture of manners, of civic arrangements, of the culture of peoples of distant lands or of remote times, seizes and interests us, even if there is no exact scientific connection among them. We continually find points of contact and comparison in our own conceptions and feelings; we get to know the hidden capacities and desires of the mind, which in the ordinary peaceful course of civilised life remain unawakened. It is not to be denied that, in the natural sciences, this kind of interest is wanting. Each individual fact, taken by itself, can indeed arouse our curiosity or our astonishment, or be useful to us in its practical applications. But intellectual satisfaction we obtain only from a connection of the whole, just from its conformity with law.

Object
You know you turn me on
Eyes so white and legs so long
But don't try to talk to me
I won't listen to your lies
You're just an object in my eyes
You're just an object in my eyes
Sophisticated smile
You seduce in such fine style
But don't try to fool me
'cause i can see through your disguise
You're just an object in my eyes
You're just an object in my eyes
But i don't mind
I just don't care
I've got no objection
To you touching me there
Object object
Object object
Object object
Object object
You know just what to do
Lick your lips
And i want you
But don't try to hold me
'cause i don't want any ties
You're just an object in my eyes
You're just an object in my eyes
But i don't mind
I just don't care
I've got no objections
To you touching me there
You're just an object object
Object object
You're just an object

Sum Total Residue Life Ripples
lifetimes spent filling empty spaces
lifetimes spent desiring other places
people could spend a lifetime in this
world studying learning doing or not
belonging or not as you choose most
people cannot most need to conform
but you can and will define yourself
herd mentality conformity denies self
conformity imprisons social responsibility
compliance identification internalization
choose then informational social influence
choose also or normative social influence
information cascade knowledge peer pressure
age social rejection social norms youth culture
status public opinion immediacy group numbers
conformity normally leads individuals
to think and act more like social groups
herd mentality often rejects rationality
status individuals are occasionally
able to reverse lower IQ herd tendency
challenge change people peer groups
minority influence is a special case
of adaptive informational influence
minority influence is most influential
when group accepted admired esteemed people
can charismatic make a clear consistent
case for their point of view prime relevant
but when minority view fluctuates
shows uncertainty signs signals
chance of influence is small falls
however beware a racist minority
that makes a strong scapegoat political
convincing case which increases
probability of changing majority beliefs
changing majority beliefs behaviors
minority members perceived as experts
members with appeal high in status
perceived benefited group in the past
are more likely to implement changes
herein enters threat Hitler's disasters
minority influence can sometimes
override previous conformity effects
lead to unhealthy group dynamics
a single 'bad apple' inconsiderate
undesired negligent group members
can substantially increase conflicts
reduce performance in work groups
create negative emotional climates
hate malice racist mentality interferes
with healthy group social functionings
history advocates avoid these courses
does a coward mentality cop out reason
'It's more likely that I'm wrong than
that all those other people are wrong.
Therefore, I will do as they do.'
What does God free will advocate?
Each snow flake falling is different
each set of fingerprints is unique different
each eye retina scan is unique different
each scanned human heart is unique different
small differences are effect important
each individual voice is effect important
tally accounting of souls is important
remember Hitler Nazi extermination policies
people knew it was morally ethnically wrong
pressure conformity condemned victim souls

A modern theory of knowledge which takes account of the relational as distinct from the merely relative character of all historical knowledge must start with the assumption that there are spheres of thought in which it is impossible to conceive of absolute truth existing independently of the values and position of the subject and unrelated to the social context. Even a god could not formulate a proposition on historical subjects like 2 x 2 = 4, for what is intelligible in history can be formulated only with reference to problems and conceptual constructions which themselves arise in the flux of historical experience.

Sometimes It Feels As If I Am Not Really Living
Sometimes it feels
as if I am not really living,
as I am just marking time,
being trapped in a body
where no choices
but destiny determines the way
that my life is going,
while I am not fit
to become part of the social structure
where everyone else is loosing individuality
and by design I am
not made to cringe, to be servile
or obsequious
and to no man I bend my knees.
I do not fit in the social mould
where language, culture, heritage
and religion has to be sacrificed
for what is seen as the common good
and no one will force me into conformity.
