For who do these activities harm? They are physically the equivalent of massaging. But since they do it in contrast to our cultural norms, we call these behaviors dishonorable. So who is not being honorable, really? That kind of being judgmental about all of Nature, and placing it and all of its millions of species below us and judging them according to our arbitrary cultural standards is what makes humans the ignoble ones. Relative to “dumb animals,” that kind of superior attitude, wrought of neurosis and cultural bias, I would contend also makes us the more moronic of planetmates. As for murder, yes, chimpanzees have been known, quite uncommonly, to murder. What is less passed along is that these are chimps who have lived in proximity to humans. These are not chimps in the wild. Take a look at the movies, Rise of the Planet of the Apes and/or Mighty Joe Young if you want to get an idea of why being around humans might instill murderous rage in an otherwise peaceable primate. While they are fiction, the reality is no less telling in regard to crazy-making humans. Even the early studies on baboons and their “aggression” in… PLANETMATES: THE GREAT REVEAL Page xvi

From birth on — even before birth as the experiences a mother has are constituted by culture and affect therefore what a prenate experiences to at least some degree — culture puts a stamp on us. The cultural impression delimits the profile of our being and constrains our actions while facilitating others of ours. It opens and closes doors at the same time. Within the outlines of that template, however, we are required to operate and make less fundamental choices. Those choices, patterned and restrained by one’s culture, vary from the most trivial ... what to have for breakfast ... to the profound and life-altering. This, for example, would involve decisions about career and spouse. And something has happened in the current historical era ... something integral to these times being labeled postmodern ... that has made those choices more difficult than they ever have been in history. Yet potentially more freeing, more fruitful, more productive of freedom and felicity, more fulfilling and satisfying can those decisions be than ever before. For in these times — immersed in a multicultural soup with near infinite numbers of potentials and choices — we are responsible, more than ever before, and not as much culture-family- society, for choosing and creating our identity, our path in life.

Culture Versus Instinct That supposed “blank slate” we are born with — wrought of a pro- cess of forgetting utilized to fend off the overwhelming trauma of the time — has another important ramification. You might say that most species are born and are either immediately or soon enough able to fend for themselves. How they are able to do that is attributed to what we refer to as instinct. We arrive at this determination of a factor of instinct, not empirically, but conveniently. By that I mean that instinct is not a thing-in- itself that we have discovered in Nature. No. We see that other planetmates are able to do all kinds of things without being taught, and since we do not have that same thing we cannot understand it. Not able to understand it we give it a name — instinct. Problem solved. But what is it? Well, we say it is genetic. It is behavior laid down in the genes. And we have this further rather magical idea that… THE FOURTH DESCENT — FETAL MALNUTRITION Page 41

PRODIGAL HUMAN Page 16 As mentioned, we see in the fossil records some evidence that our pelvic bones became wider for a while, which would have made birth somewhat easier. But what this probably meant, in actuality, is that the baby, needing twenty-one months in the womb, ideally, (we’ll get to that next chapter) was coming out at some point after nine months. It has been said, the bone records show a gestation of twelve months at one point. This would have been assistive to birthing ape- sized heads and with minimal birth trauma. What is more likely is that our skulls were the larger size and some of that extra gestation needed for the bigger brain’s maturation was still happening in the womb, and there was roughly the same amount of pain involved in birth as there is today. Birth Pain Makes Us Humans Birth Pain Caused the Feverish Minds of Humans, Which We Call Intelligence To continue, remember that what is universally acknowledged to distinguish humans from other species is our intelligence and the elaboration of culture that comes from that. However, with the understanding of skull size, birth, and repression described above, we see these much-touted distinctions and claims to superiority to be merely the byproduct of our neocortical attempts to deal with unconscious pain, specifically, that of birth trauma.

PLANETMATES: THE GREAT REVEAL Page xvi Toward Species Relativism and Away from Anthropocentrism I understand all this, but it struck me that this appraisal was not at all even-handed and suffered from some common biases of thought. I believe it is about time we rethink these prejudices, as we go about eliminating half the species on the planet, short term, because of uncontrollable human greed and insensitivity. Further, with the increasing awareness among humans about their own species- centeredness and the most promising rising up of valuing of planetmate consciousness ever in civilization — and the first since Native Americans — it seems that I should say something to address these common misunderstandings. To begin: Cows engage in female/female mounting. So? Why is that not honorable? Similarly, some monkeys have been known to engage in female genital to genital stimulation (g-g rubbing, it has been termed) when celebrating. What is wrong with that? I would say humans are the ones who are culturally narcissistic and judgmental ... not to mention homophobic. For who do these activities harm? They are physically the equivalent of massaging. But since they do it in contrast to our cultural norms, we call these behaviors dishonorable. So who is not being honorable, really?

America is becoming increasingly lonely—and more expensive. May the people of this nation realize that this process can be halted starting in November. For without civilization, there is no future. Just think about that! 🙏

Take Down the Walls of Prejudice ... Between Species I have heard it said that if we want to find nobility, Nature is hardly the place to look. To support that, it was noted that chimps have been known to murder each other and to war with other troops of chimps; that ants, monkeys, and flocks of crows engage in war. It was pointed out that cows engage in female-female mounting during estrus and chickens rape; that new lions murder all the cubs of their vanquished rivals and “elephant seals roar and batter away at each other like inebriated laborers.” So the assertion was made that animals are the wrong place to look for honor.

Warning to the #West, when will they start paying attention?

When will your country finally ban the #Muslim #Brotherhood to protect its children, its future, and the #civilization generations fought to build?

If not now, then when?

And if you won’t defend your civilization, who will?

Fourth Descent — Fetal Malnutrition Another development that came with bipedalism is that in the late stages of gestation, the prenate would be so large that it would press against the blood vessels in the surrounding environment and inhibit the blood flow to the extent that nutrients and oxygen were not supplied sufficiently. A big part of that reduction of blood flow came out of the fact that standing… INTRODUCTION Page 10
