Ok but natural selection doesn't explains the real caracteristics of an human being, the human being also has a mind wich surpases the simple will of the flesh and the animal instinct.
You don't know what's happening inside your body, you're only aware of your consciousness. Your consciousness is not central to you. You only think because that's part of the illusion.
That's where I differ. The conciousness is for me the central part of every human being, it's essence.
But in the end, you'll still eat Real "food" , drink water, breathe, go to sleep, and go the bathroom.
Ok but I can take the decision wheter to do it or not.
Everything is simply about Survival and Reproduction. That's the ultimate system in life.
Again sadomasiquism doesn't has to do with survival. Buying a Rolex either, playing with the computer or driving a Ferrari are not about survival. The human life is much more complex than the simple animal.
If is tell you, you're free to write whatever you want, just use these 5 letters: ABCDE, that's freedom? The illusion is that you "think" picking from ABCDE is actually a choice.
I can choose between A,B,C,D or E.
What your cells can't do is done by your tissues (primarily)
What your cells can't do is done by your organs (primarily)
What your cells can't do is done by your organ systems (primarily)
What your organ systems can't do is done by you (primarily)
What you can't do is done by society (primarily).
That's your way to see it. For me the human created society for protection, but also for finding pleasure and abundance, relate with others, organize, write songs. Most of the things we do in society are more oriented to the simple pleasure and enjoying of the abundance that to mere survival.
