Living in accord with nature and the future
Living in accord with nature also means
human nature as was developed in the Hunter-Gatherer age, a nature
which we certainly still possess. This harmoniously tracks, more or
less, with traditional conservative values. To our inborn nature, or what
we inherit, is added the second nature, our upbringing, our education
(ie. nature/nurture), and the second acquired nature must not be a
perversion of our inborn nature, as it has largely been in modern
culture. More deeply and religiously this means living within an ordered conservative evolution activated by the Spirit-Will which internally
activates material life to evolve toward Godhood, shaped by outside
evolution. This is fully living in accord with nature.
As to the future, as Nietzsche
suggested, the development of great people and not merely cultured
people, is the supreme goal of education and culture, this is the
political, artistic, and religious goal. In today's language this means the development
of great people sociobiologically. And not just one people
but many people, grouped in small states and regions of distinct
variety, and within the groups great individuals, the Republic of
Genius, as Schopenhauer called them, calling to one another across
time. If we can survive the present, this is our future, this is
fully living in accord with nature and
the future...Given who we are, is there a better way?
