PDF Version Part 1 The Biology Of The Human Condition

Section 1. Introductory summary

What is to be presented must surely be the greatest, most heroic story ever told. It is the story of the human race, our species’ story. From a pre-conscious state of untroubled ignorance, to conscious awakening and with it the emergence of the horror and darkness of the ‘good’ and ‘evil’, human-condition-afflicted state, to finally finding the redeeming understanding of that condition, what is to be documented is a truly horrendous saga. The suffering however has not been in vain because humanity now begins an absolutely fabulous existence.

This will be no superficial account of humanity’s journey, or of our lives as part of it, but rather a deeply profound presentation of the biological origins, effects and, most importantly, resolution of the underlying issue in all human affairs of our so-called ‘human condition’, our species’ extraordinary capacity for both ‘good’ and ‘evil’.

What has enabled this, the real story about humanity, to at last, for the first time, be told is that after centuries of inquiry science has accumulated sufficient knowledge for the human condition to finally be able to be explained and by so doing understood. It is science that enables humanity to be liberated from eons of living in doubt and uncertainty about our species’ fundamental worthiness and relevance.

Most significantly, by explaining the biological origins of ‘good’ and ‘evil’ in our species’ make-up the real reconciling, peace-bringing amelioration that we have always sought for that condition is at last made possible. This is the breakthrough we have yearned for as a species since we first became fully conscious some 2 million years ago and began our search for knowledge, ultimately self-knowledge. And it has arrived only just in time because without the greater dignifying, reconciling biological insight into our species’ divided nature, and our own personal split selves as part of that condition, humanity would remain, as it has been, besieged and stalled by the distress of that condition, rapidly festering—in fact dying. Now, instead, with the finding of this all-important liberating insight, the great exodus from the horror and darkness of that untenable divided state can and will begin. The real dawn for the human race has at last arrived.

Importantly, for current generations, this reconciling knowledge makes immediately possible a whole new, utterly fulfilling, world-saving and almost unbearably exciting way for us to live. With the finding of understanding of the human condition everything we have ever dreamed of suddenly becomes possible. Our deepest hope and faith that sometime, some day, somewhere, on the shoulders of all the efforts of all the humans who have ever lived, ameliorating insight into our condition would emerge has finally been realised. Humanity has finally broken free from the chains of ignorance about our species’ true worth and dignity.
