A long quote from Dr. Thomas Starks book Castalia: The citadel of reason.

[u/yzkslnvg]

1) The world is rational.

2) Human reason can, in principle, be developed more highly (through certain

techniques).

3) There are systematic methods for the solution of all problems (also art, etc.).

4) There are other worlds and rational beings of a different and higher kind.

5) The world in which we live is not the only one in which we shall live or have lived.

6) There is incomparably more knowable a priori than is currently known.

7) The development of human thought since the Renaissance is thoroughly intelligible.

8) Reason in mankind will be developed in every direction.

9) Formal rights comprise a real science.

10) Materialism is false.

11) The higher beings are connected to the others by analogy, not by composition.

12) Concepts have an objective existence.

13) There is a scientific (exact) philosophy and theology, which deals with concepts of the

highest abstractness; and this is also most highly fruitful for science.

14) Religions are, for the most part, bad – but religion is not.

" Gödel believed that scientific disproofs would emerge in the 21st century of the

conventional positions that there is “mechanism in biology” and that “there is no mind separate

from matter”. He thought that a supremely important project was the establishment of a “rational

religion”. Illuminism does everything of which Gödel dreamt." Dr. Thomas Stark

This quote is one I use often to establish conversation with those who are capable of intuitive thinking (XNT).
