Key Notes
definition
Worldview is Jiang's functional name for the soul: it tells a person who they are, where they come from, where they stand in the universe, and therefore enables planning, empathy, relationships, and judgment.
normative
Even in a world of evil, Jiang says the individual must choose good and tell the truth because Ahura Mazda will know and judge the choice.
diagnosis
Jiang answers a Holocaust/Hitler objection by insisting that Asha requires relinquishing hatred and judgment because Ahura Mazda is complete forgiveness, compassion, and love.
diagnosis
Eve is the hero of the Eden story because she independently judges the fruit and chooses knowledge before Adam follows.
diagnosis
Jiang answers that wealthy Satan worship is a refuge from divine judgment: if wealth came through theft, harm, cheating, lying, or stealing, God’s judgment becomes intolerable.
model
Jiang presents Arendt's totalitarianism thesis as the destruction of individual judgment until people can no longer distinguish fact from fiction or true from false.
diagnosis
Writing forces Jiang to shorten, moralize, and sanitize the same story because written words leave the intimate relationship and expose the author to outside judgment.
