DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER!!!

Despite anything you may hear to the contrary…

We humans originated on Earth…

We evolved from the great magnitude of fauna the earth has produced over 4 billion years…

We were forged in the fear of predation…

Where any miscalculation of risk might be our last…

And in the cunning adaptations of the hunt…

Learning how to catch our prey in more and more inventive ways…

And we are every bit the animal our ancestors were…

Beasts with brains, but beasts all the same…

And while all manner of modernity over the years has sought to claim itself civilized…

Every modernity of thought has kept the core conclusions of predator and prey…

That it is better to run or hide than it is to be eaten…

That it is better to fight and kill than it is to go hungry…

And that it is better to eat than to be eaten…

And while we struggle to construct modernity after modernity based on anything other than these principles…

One aspect of our modern age does seem to buck the trend of animal instinct…

Because only recently have we as a species, a society and a civilization,

Only now have we earthlings discovered, for no earthly reason at all…
