-title: Harari’s Sapiens on Religion
-description: >-
-    In which I discuss why I think Harari’s characterisation of religion
-    is inadequate because it’s too materialistic.
-pubDate:
-    year: 2024
-    month: 01
-    day: 14
----
-
-I’ve been slowly re-reading Yuval Noah Harari’s 2014 classic,
-<a href="https://www.ynharari.com/book/sapiens-2">Sapiens</a>,
-which apart from being ridiculously over-scoped and hilariously
-under-evidenced, is proving delightfully entertaining.
-
-I’ve just finished chapter 12, covering the world history of all
-religion in thirty pages. Of course, at that level of brevity,
-there will be many deficiencies. But here’s some thoughts - not
-terribly well organised - which stand out to me.
-
-Hurari generally assumes a materialist metaphysic (a problem which
-blights the book more generally). Nothing exists except physical stuff.
-This gives him severe tunnel vision. As a consequence of this
-restricting metaphysic, he is forced to adopt limiting accounts of what
-the role of religion is in world history, and therefore what religion is.
-
-> The crucial historical role of religion has been to give superhuman
-> legitimacy to [all social orders and hierarchies].
-> Religion can thus be defined as <em>a system of human norms and
-> values that is founded on a belief in a superhuman order</em>.
-> <footer>p. 234</footer>
-
-It might seem a little unfair to criticise Harari for giving a
-materialist account of religion. <i>Sapiens</i> is, after all, a
-materialist world history.
-
-But this account is just one extreme example of how that project, to
-give a materialist account of world history, will inevitably lack the
-metaphysical resources to really understand the human story.
-
-On Harari’s view, any human enterprise which attempts to understand
-that which transcends direct human experience is at best an effort in
-imaginative story-telling. All scientific theory, theology, ethics and
-metaphysics either contorted out of all recognition into a pragmatic
-fiction or is cast to the flames.
-
-In particular, it’s a view which is incapable of taking seriously some
-of the most important questions human beings have grappled with in the
-course of their history. Those who know me won’t be surprised at which
-ones I’m going to pick out: who was the being which made their covenant
-with Abraham? How is that promise being fulfilled? And who the heck was
-Jesus of Nazareth?
-
-If Harari’s characterisation of religion is adequate - and the Abrahamic
-faiths come under that banner - then those questions are reduced to
-nothing more profound than Doctor Who fans arguing over ‘canon’. The
-question of who God is becomes a mere tool for the organisation of
-society, rather than a substantial and important question on a matter
-of fact.
-
-This is a shortcoming for its own sake: a materialist account of
-religion cannot adequately account for the phenomenon of religion
-itself.
-
-But it is also a shortcoming even by its own lights. Without giving
-serious consideration to the substantial matter of what Harari calls
-‘religion’ (which, to his mind, includes the Abrahamic faiths,
-Hinduism, paganism, animism, Buddhism, Shintoism, Confucianism,
-capitalism, communism and Nazism), even the material facts are
-inexplicable. Why would, as Harari is keen to point out, out, people
-fight and die over and over again for a fiction?
-
-The material facts themselves prove that ‘religion’ as he construes it
-is not window dressing to the real story of history. It cannot merely
-serve as a mechanism in the churning of material history. It is itself
-the centre of the story.

-title: EUHWC Toast to the Lassies 2024
-description: >-
-    At the <a href="https://www.euhwc.co.uk">EUHWC</a> Burns meet in
-    Ullapool last weekend, I had the last privilege of giving the Toast to
-    the Lassies. Particularly for the benefit of those who weren’t there,
-    here it is in full!

-Had Burns, instead of his sweet bonnie Jean,<br>
-his skills poetical for to mature<br>
-had any one of our club’s lassies seen<br>
-he would forever have remained obscure.<br>
-If he had nothing but this box of worms<br>
-Scotia would have been poorer, that I’m sure.<br>
-Now none of us can claim to be a Burns,<br>
-I’m no poetic master, still, I’ll have a punt,<br>
-though let’s be clear, I’ll do it on my terms.<br>
-I’ve everywhere avoided being blunt -<br>
-politeness matters more than any schema -<br>
-but it is hard when Isla’s such a cunt.<br>
-It was a challenge to produce a terza rima<br>
-I could recite withouten snoring;<br>
-you’ve been so stiff I thought youse had oedema.<br>
-The bother is this year is you’ll all been boring:<br>
-no drugs, no sex, no gossiping or lies,<br>
-no rock and roll, and hardly any whoring.<br>
-But hey well, rules is rules, I’ve had to try!<br>
-At least it can’t be worse than the reply.<br>
-
-I’ll start with Audrey, the club’s senior member,<br>
-for if there’s something that I say which disconcerts her,<br>
-it’s fine: the poor old girl, she won’t remember.<br>
-She likes to let us think she’s a hard worker<br>
-but we’re electing a third social sec…<br>
-it’s pretty clear she’s just another shirker.<br>
-This lady, half American, half Czech,<br>
-for study, moved to Scotland for to do<br>
-American history – really, what the heck?<br>
-The club is so much louder thanks to you:<br>
-impressive vocals for just five foot two.<br>
-
-That woman, Willow, reggles is bespeckled<br>
-with her sickle and her fishing tackle<br>
-shackled by the shins while she is heckled;<br>
-the way that Willow waddles maks me cackle<br>
-like a speckled jackal getting tickles,<br>
-worth a shekel in the tabernacle;<br>
-I chuckle muckle at her love of pickles<br>
-which she wiggles when she has the heart<br>
-while work for the Committee’s fickle trickles.<br>
-Her modus operandi: <em>you can’t rush art.</em><br>
-Her reimbursements programme’s going great;<br>
-any day now, she’ll maybe even start.<br>
-She cannot walk without Audrey, her mate:<br>
-I wonder when they’re going to consummate.<br>
-
-Although they make them pretty tough in Peebles,<br>
-the thought of actually going up a peak<br>
-fills Shona Lewis with the heeble-jeebles.<br>
-New car? We miss your beautiful antique!<br>
-How long before this one’s also up a creek?<br>
-
-Once there was a lass called Hannah Collier<br>
-whom even hell below regarded nasty,<br>
-deeply despised by all that dwells there.<br>
-Dating’s proceeding slowly for our lassie;<br>
-not far from giving up til she beguiles<br>
-a hot Italian in Southsider: classy!<br>
-At first, Michaelo seems to be all smiles<br>
-till it transpires he’s one of Dante’s demons…<br>
-I guess it’s back to posters of Harry Styles.<br>
-One day you’ll get a decent boy, keep dreamin;<br>
-somewhere there waits a handsome Mr Collier.<br>
-Hopefully when she meets him she’ll no be steamin.<br>
-Hannah, I’m not sure why you chose to maul your<br>
-poor skeleton at Subway (she’s still tetchy)<br>
-and then abandon what remains of all your<br>
-dignity at Ryvoan with a Frenchie!<br>
-I think he wishes that he never met ye.<br>
-
-And has a quiet Felicia e’er been seen?<br>
-The energy she has is frankly wild.<br>
-I’ve never seen a hillwalker so keen!<br>
-<i lang="de">Ssie ischt raschtlos und nie gelangweilt</i>.<br>
-She eats raw oats with soggy protein powder:<br>
-a camping pot has ne’er been worse defiled.<br>
-She uses what her Maker has endowed her<br>
-with: her recorder skills are off the charts;<br>
-youse think I’m joking, but I wouldn’t doubt her!<br>
-This lass of the land of the Rot-Gold-Schwarz<br>
-will soon depart, though long we might beseech ya<br>
-to stay. Of course, you’ll break all of our hearts,<br>
-but mine most of all. Any time, Felicia,<br>
-Creag Meagaidh calls, I know routes up the rear<br>
-dark and under-explored that I can teach you!<br>
-I won’t deny I think it’s rather queer<br>
-the things you do with chickpeas, but no matter.<br>
-You’re keen, you’re quick, you’re cool, that much is clear.<br>
-In fact, I think you’d make a damn good faffer:<br>
-swoop down on distilleries like the Luftwaffe.<br>
-
-And now we come to our girl Emily Topness!<br>
-You’re keen for social sec. You’d suit the role<br>
-because… I’m not quite sure, it’s embdy’s guess.<br>
-We met your sister, and she was just as dull.<br>
-No, please drone on about Icelandic soil!<br>
-Poor Joe here down the front’s bored out his skull.<br>
-And since I mentioned Joe – I hate to spoil<br>
-it for you – but you’ve got the inferior Joe,<br>
-by Jove, no joke, it’s Jock here’s got the style!<br>
-Nah, write the boy a sonnet, get in the flow,<br>
-Whatever you produce’ll beat by thrice<br>
-your Masters thesis. What’d you got to show<br>
-for months of hunting for the butterflies?<br>
-‘There weren’t any.’ Oh, and have some sense,<br>
-cos I’ve heard rumours – I assume they’re lies –<br>
-you’ve called yourself the ‘poet in residence.’<br>
-You know you can’t compete, drop the pretence.<br>
-
-Tereza was our gear sec for last year.<br>
-She helped herself to stuff: that’s factual.<br>
-Now when she asks to loan a bit club gear<br>
-we have to ask her to provide collateral.<br>
-She picked up tin whistle pretty sharp!<br>
-Which is to say, she’s not a natural.<br>
-She’s nowhere happier than under tarp<br>
-gazing up at the moon and stars alone<br>
-somewhere distant and remote like Glen Tarff.<br>
-Now what to say about Lucy Ma-the-soooon....<br>
-she likes… to faff… mm hmmm… well, moving on!<br>
-
-And now we come to Emilie the French.<br>
-She seems to be nice on the trips we see her<br>
-but my distrust of frogs will ne’er be quenched.<br>
-Claims she’s a ‘pharmacist’? So she’s a dealer.<br>
-Need some pills in a pinch? You call, she’s there<br>
-at your door in her rally-approved four-wheeler.<br>
-One question we have is, why are you here?<br>
-Most folk are in uni, you’ve no refutin<br>
-you were kicked out after second year!<br>
-Now the Engineering grad, Sophia Newton.<br>
-Your namesake, Isaac, was a man convicted,<br>
-constructed calculus; but no computin,<br>
-not even Isaac’s, could’ve e’er predicted<br>
-you’d drop the Eng for creative writing!<br>
-now that’s what I would call a self-inflicted<br>
-inflection point! It must be quite enlightening,<br>
-but that doesn’t excuse when you give us an earful.<br>
-The blood boils in our veins, the rage heightening,<br>
-and you’re an American, that makes me fearful.<br>
-What’s your secret? You have us knackered!<br>
-What are you on to always be so cheerful?<br>
-Now we approach the topic of Merzbacher.<br>
-Wait, she’s not here? Abandoned ship?<br>
-She says she’s informatics: so she’s a hacker?<br>
-She has strong views, she lets her anger rip.<br>
-Poor George got an earful, full of future advice,<br>
-but why hasn’t she been on another club trip?<br>
-We’re cruel to focus on this list of vice;<br>
-the fact remains: she’s headstrong and nice.<br>
-
-On Skye, a lady gave her poles to Sasha,<br>
-which was really nice - I mean just the best -<br>
-but Sasha really didn’t have to flash her.<br>
-Quick history lesson: way back, RBS<br>
-led the banking system to self-destruct<br>
-and left taxpayers to pick up the mess.<br>
-Since then, the name’s so irredeemably fucked<br>
-they’ve had to ditch the brand once and for all.<br>
-There’s one lassie who I need not instruct<br>
-What, these days, the Royal Bank is called<br>
-cos NatWest’s nasty history of scandal<br>
-didn’t stop Booth from working there at all.<br>
-Nothing motivates her more than to trample<br>
-upon the working class. They set her free.<br>
-She sank the pound quicker than the Belgrano,<br>
-because ‘there is no such thing as society,’<br>
-that’s how it is, is it? All right, I see.<br>
-
-Now, coming all the way from Glenmore Lodge,<br>
-it’s Ellie’s turn! We have done what we can,<br>
-although I’m scared what she’ll put in my squash.<br>
-She wasn’t into Benji, but listen man,<br>
-you’re lucky that you dodged her drunken benders.<br>
-You’ll wake up in a tent in Kyrgystan,<br>
-as for how you got there, no-one remembers,<br>
-and if you’d known you’d be sleeping next to Ellie,<br>
-you would’ve brought some fucking ear defenders.<br>
-She’ll wrap you in bubblewrap, from your ears to your belly,<br>
-cotton clothes for none, and no complaining,<br>
-applying safety to the max, spare socks in your wellies.<br>
-She’s always at her Mountain Leader training,<br>
-practicing her night nav in the locale,<br>
-pursuing QMDs - unless it’s raining.<br>
-But some water should not scare our gal!<br>
-She’s had much experience with the wet as of late:<br>
-after all, she got on well with our navy pal.<br>
-What was the age of that particular first mate?<br>
-Older than your ex - always part of the plan?<br>
-Ah, of course! He was a spry twenty-eight!<br>
-Youth’s for the losers, let’s get you a real man,<br>
-mature and rugged, but kind and astute?<br>
-Just make sure he’s not as old as your gran.<br>
-One request we all have is you ditch the uke:<br>
-never have strings been pluckèd quite so shitely;<br>
-we would all much rather be hit by a nuke.<br>
-And please shut up about your nice society.<br>
-We are all glad you had a fun summer,<br>
-but bringing it up throws us right back to sobriety.<br>
-To lose you of course would be a bummer:<br>
-that is, for your carefully groomed newcomers.<br>
-
-Now time for the main woman, El Presidente!<br>
-To here, it’s been like getting stones to bleed,<br>
-but in Isla Burslem’s case we’ve material aplenty!<br>
-As Holy Scripture says, ‘let those who lead<br>
-well be worthy of double honour,’ so<br>
-your bit is double length – it’s quite the screed!<br>
-I’ll start off with her brilliant boyfriend – oh!<br>
-Not boyfriend! Friend? To me this rather smacks<br>
-of low commitment, but what do I know?<br>
-So far, he’s disappointing, but on track.<br>
-What’s he up to Isla: seven minutes? neat!<br>
-Despite that, he is never holding back<br>
-your blossoming romance with Dr Peat.<br>
-Don’t deny it, that launch was pretty hard!<br>
-It’s fifth base next: that’s photos of his feet.<br>
-It’s fair to say her reputation’s marred.<br>
-We all regret that we did once anoint<br>
-her President: her premiership’s ill-starred.<br>
-Hey - you’re meant to be in charge of this joint!<br>
-You’re seldom seen cos of the mountaineering<br>
-meets that you’re always on. You’d made your point<br>
-before you chose to go off disappearing<br>
-to <em>New Zealand</em>… we get the message! Plus<br>
-we’ve had enough of all your domineering:<br>

-title: Why Easter is the best week of the year
-description: >-
-    Based on a talk given to my colleagues at
-    <a href="https://www.scottlogic.co.uk">Scott Logic</a> for Maundy
-    Thursday, 2024.
-pubDate:
-    year: 2024

-
-As you might have noticed, it is Easter this week! So I'd like to take five or
-five minutes of your time to share why I – and about two billion other humans
-going about the place just now – think Easter is the best week of the year. And
-it's got something to do with a special Christian ritual called Communion.
-
-Communion, at its heart, is about as simple a ritual as you can get. You get
-together with a bunch of other people. You share some bread, and you share some
-wine.
-
-And it’s because of this ritual that so many people regard Easter as the best
-week of the year. I want to explain to you why that is, and more than that, I
-want to convince you that Easter is the best week of the year for you, too!
-
-If you’ve passed by _The Hub_ at the top of Johnstone Terrace here in
-Edinburgh recently, you might have notice the banner which is draped over
-the railings just now – reading, ‘RITUALS THAT UNITE US.’
-
-Now, that might seem like an odd idea. But wouldn’t that be great, if we
-actually had a ritual which could unite us? Because the world could surely do
-with a bit more unity right now. The world seems so divided, and sometimes it
-seems like there’s no hope for real unity.
-
-We can see that in our politics. We’re divided about foreign policy, about
-taxation policy, about trade policy, about environmental policy.
-
-And the conflicts that we have in this country seem pretty trivial when we
-remember the conflicts that are playing out in other parts of the world right
-now. In Israel and Gaza. In Sudan. In Russia and Ukraine.
-
-And there’s plenty of conflict happening on the small scale, too. Often it’s the
-smallest-scale conflicts which hurt us the most deeply. Your landlord pushes you
-around. That friend you trusted like no-one else in the world lets you down. The
-partner or spouse you loved like no-one else in the world – you end up fighting.
-
-It’s possible that you’re going to be reading this right now with a heavy heart
-because of a broken relationship in their life. And doesn’t that hurt more than
-anything else we know?
-
-When the world is groaning so heavily under the weight of conflict, and some
-banner on _The Hub_ tells us a ritual can unite us, that seems so out of
-proportion to the scale of the problem, doesn’t it? What can a ritual do? A bit
-of old superstition? An excuse to divide people, maybe – what can a ritual do
-to unite us?
-
-Well, two thousand years ago, a man had a meal with his friends. Together, they
-shared a meal of bread and wine – which, in that time and place, was the most
-ordinary meal imaginable.
-
-And yet, in that most ordinary event imaginable, something was happening which
-was totally unimaginable. As this man, Jesus, shared the elements of this meal,
-he made some extraordinary statements about what he was doing: ‘take, eat, this
-is my body’ – ‘drink this, all of you; this is my blood of the new covenant.’
-(The word ‘covenant’ means a promise.)
-
-He told them he wasn’t just giving them bread and wine, he was giving his body
-and his blood, and a promise.
-
-Before Jesus ate another meal, he was flogged and nailed to a cross. His blood
-was spilt and his body broken, even to death.
-
-And yet, that wasn’t the end of the Easter story. Because three days later,
-mourners turned up at Jesus’ tomb to pay their respects, and found the tomb
-empty, the stone rolled away. Then they became the first of crowds of
-incredulous eyewitnesses to see Jesus, the same Jesus who was killed on a cross,
-alive.
-
-Some magic trick, right? But this matters a hell of a lot more than just some
-magic trick. Because Jesus became the first person in history to prove that you
-really can both have your cake and eat it. He gave his life, and lived! As a
-result, we can have his life and our own. We can join with Jesus through the
-ritual of Communion which he established, and thereby, through Jesus’ body, join
-together with everyone else who takes part in that ritual, as one body. Then we
-can start living our brand-new, full-fat, original-recipe life overflowing with
-generosity where we too can both give our life to others and enjoy it ourselves.
-Indeed, Jesus taught us and showed us that it’s precisely by giving our lives to
-others that we get to truly live ourselves.
-
-This is why, in spite of all the division which persists in the world today, two
-billion people regard this week as the best week of the year. Two billion
-people, from every nation on Earth, speaking thousands of languages, of every
-age and culture and gender and race, who defy the divisions of this world to
-insist on joining together as one body in Jesus.
-
-Because Jesus’ new covenant, his promise to all of us, is that in an apparently
-hopelessly divided world, there exists real hope for unity. And that’s why
-Easter is the best week of the year.

-title: Tracking pixels
-description: Concerning a notice in the privacy policy of an HR app
-pubDate:
-  year: 2024
-  month: 04
-  day: 10
----
-
-I recently made the mistake of reading the privacy policy of the HR app my
-employer uses. Take this choice excerpt:
-
-> **Tracking Pixels**
->
-> We may place tracking pixels in our Applicant Tracking System (ATS). These
-> pixels are used for analytics purposes, including to track statistical
-> information around when an email sent to you is opened.
-
-Translation:
-
-> We reserve the right to know whether you have read our emails, how long you
-> spent reading them, at what time and in what physical location you read them,
-> and any other information we can get our hands on. We reserve the right to do
-> this as soon as you open an email, without asking for your permission first,
-> and ask for your forgiveness later. That is, if you ever find out: which you
-> won't, because we also reserve the right to hide this information in a Privacy
-> Policy which we know you won't read, and we design our data-harvesting monster
-> to be completely undetectable to anyone except determined experts, on purpose.
-> We reserve the right to leave this data lying unused in a data warehouse where
-> someone might steal it, and we also reserve the right to use it, if we can
-> think of something satisfactorily dastardly to do with it. On the bright side,
-> we probably won't, so having your data leaked to hackers and fraudsters is
-> probably the worst you have to worry about. Unless we sell your data to
-> advertisers, or a ~black hole of stolen data~ Large Language Model. Oh yeah,
-> we probably reserve the right to do that, too. We doubt anyone will ever check.
