We devise logic ourselves and then use it to define the truth, which seems to mean that the truth is biased, based on what we are, and by our senses. This seems to be how we have defined our world. It seems to have been done to help us in our various purposes, survival and reproduction, and more deeply our evolution toward Godhood. In this way we arrived at defining God as something not affected by Becoming or evolution. But everything is affected by Becoming or evolution---they didn't know this when they first began to define God. Even knowledge is changed by evolution---we know more than a frog knows and we will know more than we know now if we evolve.
To expand Nietzsche's epistemology my way, we assume that there is a first cause because the logic we create seems to need a first cause, which is saying there should be a first cause, and that is not necessarily the “truth.” Why can't things go on endlessly without a first cause? And why can't evolution go on endlessly to higher and higher levels of Godhood? I think that is the way it is.
We are our biological instinct, or the Super-Id, or the Spirit-Will-To-Godhood, which sees things as useful to Its needs and goals, and even directs things this way in our minds. We are biased this way, but it is not really a bias because this is what we are. But deeper than the biological instinct toward survival and reproductive success is the essential cause of this drive, and that is the activation of the super-biological instinct, which is the Spirit-Will activating life to evolve to Godhood, toward the zenith of success in survival and reproduction, shaped by outside evolution and selection. We forget these deeper drives, or never know them, because it seems that it was not essential that we know them. This means we often create social and cultural forms that don't relate well to what we really are or where we are going.
This is necessarily a course or reductionist way to see many different forces as one---that's what logic tends to do---but refinement seems to develop in the social and cultural forms we create to relate more closely to what we really are, and where we are going, it seems, endlessly. The one constant seems to be the Spirit-Will-To-Godhood.
