We’re not here to dispute those blessings. Our bedrock point has more to do with genes, evolution, and time.
Human evolution occurred under wild conditions, and this made us who we are. The modern human still operates on those same genes, almost wholly unchanged. We are designed to be wild, and by living tamely we make ourselves and the world around us rather sick and
unhappy.
OUR POINT OF VIEW
Think of wild versus tame, wolf versus dog, and bison versus cow. We now have the same distinction in mind when we ask you to expand this with the somewhat revolutionary notion of applying the idea to humans. Wild humans.
It’s not as odd as it sounds. In fact, through deep history, through tens of thousands of years, everyone was a wild human. The very same forces that tamed wolves and made them dogs, tamed humans. Call these forces civilisation, and yes, obvious and abundant benefits came with the deal.
