The Perennial Problems of Religio

We need to start discussing the perennial problems and developing this thesis more extensively that the very machinery that makes us adaptable to self deceptive patterns of behavior. So we talked about looking at some of the core features of religio right so we've got functional features. And here we have of course self organization and I tried to develop that very explicitly. It's not just vague self organization it's opponent processing, opponent processing that's making use of self organizing criticality relationship between compression particularization and other such trade off relationships etc. We've got self identification that process by which you're creating an identity and you've got self reflection your ability to step back and reflect on your own cognition.
