Based Camp with Simone & Malcolm Collins | Why People Leave Their Religion & How We Will (Try To) Guard Against It @SimoneandMalcolm | Uploaded January 2024 | Updated October 2024, 20 minutes ago.
Malcolm and Simone discuss the key elements they designed into their constructed religion to make it "leakproof" against losing members over generations. This includes logical consistency, future-proofing for science advances, democratized prophets, and encouraging respectful dissent within the faith. They also explain how framing it in the Judeo-Christian tradition reduces conflict while allowing more conservative strains to potentially emerge again someday.
Some key topics covered:
Why old religions lose scientists and logical thinkers
Solving the "good God" problem
Localized miracles issue with universalist faiths
Mutiple valid revelations concept
Future God and simulation theory
Value systems built into hierarchy
Encouraging rebellion tied to fidelity
Reducing conflict with conservative faiths
End goal of spreading the western tradition to the stars
