MM: I know that by saying "within nature" you meant ideas that our present science can somewhat verify according the rules of its parochial system - scientific theories of nature. But, I think it's good to remember that that distinction makes a huge difference when judging whether an idea is "harmful in the long run" or not.

Yes, I suppose we can understand how it is that MM “feels compelled by her emotions,†to believe that the “rules†of “our present science†are a “parochial system.†But does it ever occur to MM that whatever she herself happens to believe, based on her so-called “emotion theory of behavior choice,†her so-called “axiom,†can never be any less “parochial†than whatever she happens to believe that others “believe,†since she herself, as she explains in her so-called “axiom,†can believe only whatever it is she believes b/c that is what makes MM herself “feel good,†and that she “uses her brains to justify it�?? Hello?
Nope, it never occurs to MM herself; ergo it seems that her so-called “axiom†is somewhat true for MM herself . . . and that she’s unable to grasp the catch-22 implications of her circular notion. Fascinating.
