Honor requires a penalty for dishonorable behavior, and that’s where the second tool comes in — the Honor Registry.

I’m setting into motion the creation of an unbiased non-profit company will develop a website called TheHonorRegistry.com based on a technology similar to LinkedIn.com, people can sign up, register themselves, and be linked automatically to other people they know, and all members can anonymously vote on how honorable the behavior is of other members. The programming makes sure they the member voting actually interacted with the person they’re voting on, and when though people vote to create a consensus, that person receives an overall honor score 1 to 10. Users can dig down to see how they scored on the sub-categories, such as “how well does this person communicate”.

The questions are like: Does she listen to you when you talk to her? Is she easy to understand? Does she keep her promises? Is she interested in discovering if her beliefs are true? Is she consistent? Is she loyal? Is she level-headed? Does she treat others well? Is she patient? How does she behave when disaster strikes?

The Honor Registry doesn’t care about her education, social status, monetary worth, religious affiliation, marital status, children, political affiliation, or physical appearance – not one bit. It’s her behavior as determined by those who’ve experienced interacting with her first hand that count.

If the person voting on you is dishonorable, their vote counts very little, and people with high honor votes count more. Old votes eventually fade away as we recognize that people can change over time. The registry indicates when a rating is on a positive trend, or a negative trend.

Magic happens when you check the Honor Registry for the honor level of a company, a county, a city, or a church, or a married couple, the presidential candidates of a particular political party, any other group. All members honor scores in that group are averaged then reported. Suddenly power, money, influence, charisma (used by con men), advertising, lobbying, etc. all lose their power.

Going or on a blind date? Check the Honor Registry first. Buying a car from a dealer? Check the Honor Registry first. Thinking about taking a job at an exciting new company? Check the Honor Registry first. Going to get married? Check the Honor Registry first. Trying to decide where to move your family? Check the Honor Registry first.

Imagine a world filled with honest, trustworthy, ethical, straightforward, virtuous, dependable, sincere, and faithful people. Imagine being able to completely avoid those who aren’t with ease.

Now imagine if this was turned into a curriculum and it would be taught in schools, both private and public. Imagine how this would ripple through society over time.

This is my magnum opus – my final gift to the world. The one and only way to save our civilization and the planet were live on. Won’t you join us in our global effort to become honorable people, and help us build an honorable society together?
