The Evolution Paradox: Darwin Made Me Say It!
Discussion with Darwin. As you will see, moral relativism endorsed to justify any means and man regarded as a dumb animal is a very popular belief. Considering that thoughts shape reality, it is indeed kind of scary to imagine that a majority actually entertains such a thinking mode and cannot fathom the meaning of freedom.
ps: several people are anonymously quoted in this blog.
Who's claiming to own the Earth? And anything can be sold, meaning a value can be applied to anything. Human's could sell the Earth to aliens if we wanted. Perhaps for spaceships. The value of Earth would be however many spaceships humans got.
Actually this quote above really shows how people's minds are caught into the materialistic framework, money really twists the thinking mode and people say dumb things as a result.
I don't think competition is regarded as inimical, in fact, it's probably regarded by most people as necessary.
This answer highlights the justification of moral relativism. Killing is okay if necessary. So the system is not inimical. Nature gives unconditionally, predators in the wilderness do not have a monopoly on life/death. Humans do when they behave like animals. Animals cannot blow up the planet nor destroy humanity... man can, when he thinks he can behave like an animal. He has the duty is to elevate himself above this conditioning that only sustains deep levels of coercion
If Darwinism doesn't work for humans, how come we so often operate according to those principles? Isn't that basically what conservative policies are about, that they believe in the natural order of hierarchies, winners and losers? At present conservatives are doing better politically (if not morally) than liberals/progressives.
Obviously the conditioning runs deep. Very deep. Natural order of hierarchies? Coercion is not a natural state for a human society. And the evidence is that history repeats itself in/by cycles. The only coercion that is acceptable is which coming from within for individual betterment, all external coercion is utterly destructive.
The world is in many ways going from Good to better. Mainstream news in its search for eyeballs shows catastrophes but doesn't tell you war is down, violence is down, even global poverty is down.
Such an ignorance is truly appalling... global poverty down when only in America, 78% of people already live paycheck to paycheck.
Coercion is the default dynamic in human societies!
People are addicted to coercion, that is. They cannot imagine a life with much less external pressure and rules. They do not realize that coercion is the best tool to herd crowds. The problem is that societies have been trained to think "linear or circular", then a sudden upheaval happens because the paradigm can no longer expand. But this time, it is going to be very profound because masses have not been prepared for what is coming. They already knew in the early 80s that the labor market would vanish and nothing was done. Follow the money. Profits must be extracted till the end???
You are presupposing that darwinism is somehow a social construct. While some politicians and even business people think it is...... it isn't. It's a biological one.
Man is not an animal... animals cannot fathom the cosmos nor project themselves into the future, nor have a concept of self. There is no debate if we do not agree on this. There also are Natural Laws, immutable laws embedded in the fabric of Universe that we must go by to avoid the pitfalls of the animal kingdom. The only free will that exists is to notice or not....
Starting January 2017, this blog will only post once weekly to focus on its movie channel, Earth Custodians are on a mission and looking forward to donations as opposed to earnings deriving from a rating system that is too time consuming. EC is however very grateful to all its followers.

Man is an animal, learn some science.
There are laws of nature, go learn them.
