The metaculture Webinar Series divides the philosophy into a series of presentations and discussions by category.
Introduction
Start with an introduction to the metaculture belief system, explaining the primary goals, expected benefits, and reasons behind the undertaking.
- metaculture
- Belief System
- Enlightenment
- Necessary Prerequisites
- Culturally Neutral
- Universal In-Group
- Why a wiki?
- How to wiki
Metaphysics and Theology
Since one of the primary goals is the resolution of cognitive dissonance caused by science and religion, the theological assumptions are a logical place to start.
The Religion page is basically the table of contents for this section. But we’ll just tackle the first few items without getting into the rest of it.
- Reality and the Laws of Physics
- Logic and Inevitability
- God
- Pantheism
- Universalist
- Universe
- Atheism
- Fractal Geometry of God
- Faith and The Gambler
Empirical Ethics
The goal of our ethics and what humans consider "good" is encoded in our brains by evolution. Therefore, the pursuit of happiness and well-being is the objective goal of our actions.
The way we interpret these instincts becomes the generating equation that creates the pattern of our life choices.
- Utilitarian Ethics
- Happiness and well-being
- Quality of life versus quantity of life
- Abortion, Euthanasia and the Death penalty
Gödel, Feedback Loops and Fractals
When self-reference is introduced into any mathematical system, strange (loop) things start to happen.
- Gödel's Incompleteness Theorems
- Algorithm
- Recursion
- Feedback Loops
- Self-Organization
- Generating Equation
- Self-Similarity
- Self-Correction
Brain Basics
A crash course in how the brain works, with a particular emphasis on the hard problem of consciousness, the mind/brain relationship, and how understanding the activity of neural networks can help us understand our own behavior.
Brain Details
Exploring the other areas related to psychology, with a particular emphasis on the things that determine our life choices and behaviors.
