1984?

Does our different language mean we don't have to answer things?

I found the following Irrationalist Modoxism post very interesting:

Reheating the Bath

The author is 100% right - the words have a different context - or mashmoyos. Hashem and God are two different things. Olam Haelyonos and Upper Worlds. Hisachdus Hashem and Unification. One is a church, and one is supreme avoda (not worship.)

But I wonder if in the long run it matters. If one is not answering difficult questions because he is “in a different world” (or out of this oylam), then the other world one is one of a cult.

One of the hallmarks of cults is using language that provokes an emotional response.

“[The way] how you know that language is cultish, when it causes strong emotional response, but you yourself have trouble translating what it is that you're saying.”

This is precisely the phenomonon that this Irrationalist Modoxism post is describing.

Having a different language so one has a different worldview is good, but not when it reaches 1984 Newspeak levels that one does not have to answer science because he is using a different shprach.

This is the first post in a series, so we’ll see where it goes. But I hope that it doesn’t fall back on different worldviews have different facts - because no, no they don’t (unless one wants to fully abandon science and embrace postmodernism).
