Assumptions

Implicit in everything we do is a set of assumptions. To better understand why we make decisions, we need to state the assumptions in effect at the time the decision is made. Therefore, we need to keep track of the currently active assumptions.

Active assumptions:

1. The universe is real
2. The system is rational
3. The system includes the known universe
4. Most people we work with are truthful
5. Each individual and group has one or more active goals at any point in time
6. That each individual is responsible for the decisions they make
7. That the rights of any given individual end when that right begins to cause harm to any other given individual
8. That hard work should be rewarded
9. That good moral character should be rewarded
10. That the only thing owed to anyone is the opportunity to succeed
11. That society should not reward laziness or criminal behavior
12. That there exists free will for each individual
13. Systems must have constrains to prevent their self destruction
14. Society should not reward irresponsible behavior
15. If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem
16. There is a higher intelligence than the human mind
17. There is a purpose to human life and the universe which we observe
18. There may be an opportunity for each individual to resume consciousness in an after life
19. That each individual is equal (in potential) in the eyes of the creator of existence
20. That the good of human kind is more important than any given individual
21. That there exist a life after death where we are held accountable for our actions in life
22. That life does have a purpose.

Note: Most people should agree with the first fifteen assumptions.
