[New State] is like a tree; it grows slowly. So if you check back every so often, you might find something new.

Values and principles can be found in the links at the top of every page.

Principles are more important than values, for values are derived from principles, so I naturally assumed people would focus on that. To my surprise, they didn’t. Out of every 100 people, 85 will click on values, and 15 will click on principles. I suspect this is because most people are more subjective than objective, or that the average person already has enough to learn in their chosen professions and this is not their area of expertise, just as understanding tax law is not my area of expertise.

See: Objective and Subjective.

The essay "Self-control lost and a never-ending cycle” has received the most views as of June 2015. I suspect some people understand its importance (to help solve social problems) and have been sharing it.

Just like in the movie "The Matrix,"  evolution [has] the vast majority of people in a socially correct bubble and keeps them there by way of self-deception. This is so because the types of brains that are better at understanding usually don’t lead to the production of offspring, compared to the types of brains that are better at persuading. If it did, girls would be swooning over scientists instead of musicians.

I have tried to keep the essays under two pages. That's hard to do when the subject matter is about us. Plus, writing is not my profession, as you have probably noticed.

For anyone interested in the subject of evolutionary psychology, this book is a good place to start. The Moral Animal, by Robert Wright.

I have spent my life thinking (and analyzing) with the objective principle in mind while hunting for those people who are in-the-know. Recently I found one: Do we see reality as it is?
