Archive:links on Nietzsche, evolution, and the Kantian limits of knowledge
Archive: goes with ‘Nietzsche, prophet of Nazism’, some links on Nietzsche and Darwinism (eugenics)
Here are the links to the four Nietzsche posts from yesterday. Looking at Nietzsche on evolution/eugenics shows the danger of current views of evolution, especially when the ‘paradigm’ falls into the hands of a closed elite whose ethics are suspect, and ideological manipulations part of their Machiavellian social power (please note: Machiavellians are NOT able to do science, they can only lie in public). Such views of evolution are hype, potentially violent, and armed with a closed ideological propaganda system that noone can penetrate. DANGEROUS! Dangerous once, with Hilter, to a high probability dangerous again in the future. But this time the critics can move in to expose the Darwinian pseudo-science.
If you examine the situation it becomes obvious that the attraction of Darwinism to many lies in that very potential to legitimate violence.
Again, studying the eonic effect will show that ‘evoluton’ in man is far more complex than anyone had suspected, and that noone can mimic that process, leastwise by Social Darwinist capers of the political psychopaths.
The eonic effect, it should be noted, is buffered with a Kantian-style discourse on the phenomenal/noumenal: the dynamic of evolution can be observed, described, but its essential action is beyond observation, and beyond the limits of knowledge.
Anyone who claims to have a theory of evolution is probably an ideologist with an agenda. So watch out. Nature doesn’t grant man the power to imitate evolution (beyond the potential of microevolution), and a look at the Nietzsche abortion suggests a funny wisdom in that.
Let me repeat that: beware of anyone who claims to have a theory of evolution.
Note that the eonic effect is not a theory! But a descriptive map.
