What are we, really?
We live in a world created by Science. that is everywhere under attack.
Science assumes the world can be understood. And the people in that world can be understood also. And has done a good job of that, much to people's consternation. They are saying "We are not that way!: When they clearly are.
What way are they upset about? The dominance of Greed in their culture.
They will readily acknowledge the importance of this, but also say "We are not really this way!" And expect us to understand what that means.
They are saying they are composed of two parts: the natural and the supernatural. And the supernatural is what they should be judged by. And if we have a hard time seeing this, they will be glad to help us out.
We are talking about a defense of Capitalism. Which certainly needs defending. It has given us huge benefits, but also huge problems. And these need straitening out.
You will probably agree, but be extremely nervous about doing this. Everything is working so well, you hate to touch it, for fear of total collapse.
We now have two dominant emotions: Greed and Fear. Which will a subject for a future posting!
