Religion and the call for a new evolutionary therapy


The "id" of Freud not only limits the definition of the "unconscious" it distorts it and shrinks it down to the flow of the libido or sexuality. Sex is a subsidiary or secondary drive beholden to a hierarchy of the drives to survival and reproductive success, the will to power, the will to pleasure or happiness, and finally the real source of all those subsidiary drives: the will to Godhood, or Tirips, which is the sacred goal of all those drives of the unconscious, and the zenith of survival and reproductive success.

So when psychoanalytic treatment seeks to help the patient gain access to the unconscious by unblocking or understanding the "repression" of sexuality, that limits and distorts the unconscious, and leaves the patient de-centered from the deeper and more vital drives of the unconscious mentioned above; it severs or uncouples people and cultures from the deeper needs of real human nature.

The unconscious is grounded in every cell and perception of body by the will to Godhood which drives and gives purpose to survival and reproductive success, the will to power, and the will to pleasure or happiness. It is all a material process and ultimately a supermaterial process working within the ups and downs and strictures of outside or environmental natural selection and evolution.

This is how the deeper and more vital drives of the unconscious are re-centered after being severed or uncoupled, and brought in harmony with being kin-centered, gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual, marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and religious-making, among other things, with group-selection as the primary unit of successful selection, followed by individual selection. This brings us to the religious philosophy of theological materialism, and to the call for a new evolutionary therapy.
