SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM
OF CONFLICTING HUMAN EXPERIENCES? Of Rooting itself
in the firm ground of Darwinian evolutionary theory, it insists
that conflict is something to applaud rather than lament! Conflict is
the raw material of natural selection, which pushes evolution forward.
Some humans are simply 'superior' to others, and when human experiences
collide, the fittest humans should steamroll everyone else? The same logic that
drives humankind to exterminate wild wolves & to ruthlessly exploit domesticated
sheep also mandates the oppression of inferior humans by their superiors! It's a good thing
that Europeans conquer Africans and that shrewd businessmen drive the dim-witted to a bankruptcy!
If we follow this kind of evolutionary logic, humankind will thus gradually becomes stronger & fitter, &
eventually give rise to 'superhumans'! Evolution didn't stop with Homo sapiens - there still is a very
long way to go? However, if in the name of human rights or human equality we emasculate those fittest
humans, this will prevent the rise of the 'superman', and may even cause the degeneration & extinction of
Homo sapiens?! Who exactly are these 'superior humans' who herald the coming of the superman?
They might be entire races, particular tribes or exceptional individual geniuses!? Whoever they are and/or
may be(come), what makes them superior is that they háve Bètter Abilities, manifested in the creation of
new knowledge, more advanced technology, more prosperous societies or more beautiful art. The experience
of an Einstein or a Beethoven is far more valuable than that of a drunken good-for-nothing, & it is ludicrous
to treat them as if they still dó háve equal merit!? Similarly, if a particular nation has consistently
spearheaded Human Progress, we should rightly consider it superior to other nations
"that contributed little or nothing at all" to the evolution of mankind?!
Consequently, in contrast to liberal artists like Otto Dix,
evolutionary humanism maintains that the
human experience of war
ìs valuable ànd
even essential
