You should not treat any opinion expressed by pomp or his guests as a specific inducement to make a particular investment, or
Follow particular strategy, but only as an expression of his personal opinion. This podcast is for informational purposes only. Hey, everyone this week. I'll be attending heretic on a conference that promise is thought, crimes and encourages the discussion of various topics, deemed off-limits by the general public, the organizers, Founders fund, describe the importance of this conference, with the following passage. They said, quote, We Believe descent is essential to the progress of March of human civilization. We believe there's more in science technology and business to discover that it
Must be discovered and that in order to make such Discovery. We must learn to engage with new, if even sometimes unpopular ideas. So, let's have a conversation and quote. It seems like a fairly straightforward idea. Right? Well, not so fast, the team at Founders, fund did a great job explaining that history is created by Heretics, but the modern Heretics are lambasted for their views. In the initial heretic on announcement. The team wrote quote, from Galileo to Jesus Christ or radical thinkers have been met with hostility.
Then death and Vindicated by posterity that ideological Outcast have shaped. The world is an observation. So often made, it would be bereft of Interest where the actions of our society, not so entirely at odds. With the wisdom of the point troublemakers are essential to Mankind's progress. And so we must protect them. But while our culture is fascinated by the righteousness of our historical Heretics, it is obsessed with the destruction of the Heretics among us today since I read
That phrase, quote obsessed with the destruction of the Heretics among us today. And quote. I can't stop
thinking about it. You
see this playing out in economics, Public Health, politics, legal, and various other aspects of our society. There is a mainstream narrative that is accepted by the majority. If you dare straight from that narrative, cancel culture will come after you with a Vengeance. We officially live in a society where there are certain topics that are not permitted to be discussed without the threat of losing your job, your reputation, and
Your relationships even worse. The pursuit of alternative ideas is heavily discouraged by the media, the school system and your peers. Thankfully the modern-day Heretics are willing to risk their reputations and livelihood, to pursue new ideas, better Solutions, and a different way of thinking and doing, they aren't always right. In fact, sometimes they are incredibly wrong and stupid, but sometimes and it seems to be happening at an accelerating Pace. The Heretics are the Catalyst that pushes our society forward in a meaningful way.
A challenge. For each of you, The Listener is to focus on seeking out more alternative viewpoints during 2022. It doesn't have to be the crazy conspiracy theory that your drunk uncle spews, each holiday season, but can instead be a different way of looking at economics space, longevity Public, Health, politics, or many other topics. These alternative views may be off-putting at first, especially if they violate a previous framework you had for the world, but maybe those off-putting views or just the ones that you should be paying attention to.
Take the story of ignacio's, Samoas a Hungarian Doctor Who worked at the Vienna General Hospital between 1844 in 1848. As an example. He was one of the first proponents of having people washed their hands to prevent the transmission of germs, but he was largely ridiculed and ignored when he first conceived of the idea, the simple alternative view that dr. Semmelweis had on was 200 years ago is now ingrained in every humans mind since childhood the heretic created the standard.
Whether we wash our hands or not is probably one of the least controversial ideas, that could be debated then and now, so what would be more controversial? Maybe whether humans should edit the DNA of unborn children in order to increase intelligence of the population or if it is a net positive for society to have thousands of guns, 3D printed by Anonymous, people throughout the country. How about legalizing, psychedelics, or creating a pathway for every human to live forever? These are just a few of the topics that will be discussed this week, but there are many
More even more heretical ones as well. The fact that a conference that promises to present alternative viewpoints is so controversial. Probably tells us everything. We need to know about the current state of discourse in society. I'm excited to hang with the Heretics this week. I hope that you enjoyed this episode and I can't wait to do more of them.
