03-23-21
Premise:
how can change, reformation of traditional values occur?
what methods of reformation are possible?
what are the mechanisms; (past, present and future) that can effect change on our religious, cultural, intellectual, technological systems?
Section 1: direction of change
change comes from within an agency
OR
change comes from the outside an agency
Section 2: speed of change:
gradual, deliberate, regulated, incremental, long term, can be peaceful
OR
sudden, spontaneous, chaotic, immediate, short term, can be violent
Section 3: participation of change:
inclusive actions
or
exclusive actions
Section 4: method of change:
covert tactics
or
overt tactics
Section 5: range of change
local, isolated , incomplete, (limited)
OR
global, entire, near-complete (unlimited)
Examples:
change from within:
the leader of Islam, the Em can be petitioned to make changes to their system
or
be deposed and replaced with a moderate, progressive reformer.
the pope can issue edicts, and the cardinals debate how to implement the change.
or
the pope can be voted out, or replaced when they die. a progressive reformist pope can work towards changing their system.
Change from without:
Civil societies can impose regulations of expression
Inside:
the leaders of each tradition, can be a causal agent to move towards a secular or orthodox view and practice.
outside:
secular societies can create laws that regulate
the freedom of expression of offensive traditions in protected public spaces.
Historical reference:
the church of England was a historical response to reform the christian faith
create a second progressive branch that served the people of the period
summery:
any tradition can be followed or discarded by every generation or individual.
The main point is that laws and policies can be drafted to regulate the public expression of offensive traditions.
obstacles:
fear, bias, cultural rejection, ms-information, mass psychosis, political will
Further research:
there should be examples of existing bills, policies and federal acts that prohibit hate speech, regardless of tradition.
