FAQs

​

How do I learn more?
When you join the Penta movement (10-0% free), the first thing you’ll receive is a training video that goes much deeper into Penta philosophy. That is the best place to start. If you still have questions after that, you’ll find Rick’s contact information in the training video.

Intellectual arguments don’t win elections. Why should I believe in this movement?
This movement is not about winning the next election. It is about winning the deeper argument about how best to govern. People have heard the same political arguments for centuries and learned to tune them out. Penta philosophy gives people something genuinely new to think about. And like any successful movement, it begins by gathering the people who are most ready to see it, then building momentum from there.

 

The political spectrum will never agree on abortion, gun control, or countless other issues. What does Penta philosophy say about that?
Penta philosophy only asks us to agree on the foundational framework underneath those debates -- limited government and freedom in all five ways. If we can agree on Penta philosophy, that is healthy. If we disagree on literally everything else, that is political freedom, so that is healthy too.

 

Does Penta philosophy require me to stop being a conservative, libertarian, moderate, or progressive?
No. Penta philosophy does not ask you to stop being who you are. It offers a more complete, unifying framework underneath the political labels people already use. As you come to believe in Penta philosophy, it may help to think of yourself as a Penta-conservative, Penta-libertarian, Penta-moderate, or Penta-progressive.

 

You talk about “winning the war of ideas,” and yet you also say Penta philosophy is unifying. How does that work?
With elections, it is hard to win and unify at the same time. But the war of ideas is different. In the war of ideas, you win by persuading people intellectually. In that sense, winning the war of ideas is the highest form of unity, so there is no conflict.

​

Are you seeking donations?
Yes. You can donate here: https://Penta.org/donate. The Penta Movement is a project of the Pentanomic Institute for Freedom and Justice, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity, so donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law.

 

If I donate, how will my donation be used?
Your donation helps us grow the movement through better content, broader outreach, marketing, public relations, and fundraising efforts that can multiply the impact of every early dollar. In other words, you are not just funding a message. You are helping build the engine that can spread that message farther and faster.
