Why sociobiological adjustments of sex, aggression and compassion is the sacred path
To seriously consider genetic as well
as cultural adjustments requires a more austere discipline, made more
difficult by not being considered politically correct at this time, as
cultural Marxism continues to lead modern culture, in spite of its
failures. In addition to advocating positive genetic and cultural
improvements in intelligence and health, the three adjustments of
emotions which Raymond Cattell centered on in his science-religion of Beyondism were sex, aggression and
compassion. Cattell believed these things could be changed through
genes and culture. That is, changing such things as the kind of psychopathic
aggression that is simply incapable of learning, or adjusting the
short term types of compassion which seemingly help people in the short
term but does much damage in the long term.
Cattell divided the ethical system of
any group into two parts: “universal” ethical rules necessary for
any group to survive, and the “particular” ethical values
of a particular group. Cattell wanted to have international research
centers to support sociobiology research in these important areas.
I think the Church also needs to be involved in this research since
the sacred goal of long term evolution is Godhood. We believe that the Godhood of evolution is the God
first glimpsed only inwardly by the great religions. Godhood is now seen as attained
through material and supermaterial evolution. Furthermore, the
material world is activated by the Spirit-Will with the goal of
attaining Godhood, and then the material world is shaped by
evolution.
This is the religious-scientific
sacred narrative of the future. In order to attain Godhood in evolution we
will need to sociobiologically adjust sex, aggression and compassion
through genes and culture, similar to what Cattell suggested, but
with the sacred goal of evolving to Godhood. Godhood is the
supermaterial absolute of intelligence, beauty and merit, attained through evolution. But this
needs to be a voluntary mission, without coercion, applied to all
humanity, living in their natural, bonded groups. Real compassion
can help adjust downward trending groups before their extinction or
cultural death.
Although some people will want to avoid such sociobiological ethical
demands, it is the groups with the higher demands who survive in the
long run. Sparta is not my ideal state but Cattell reminds us that austere Sparta defeated
the more permissive Athens after 20 years. We have many thousands of years to go, if we can survive.
