Comments on THE Interview

Wonderful to have your interest Kathrina and THE Interview is our ideal summary presentation which explains the clash between our instinct and intellect is the source of all the madness that is occurring everywhere we look so watching or reading this interview is the place to start. To clarify: this conflict between our instinct and intellect lead to an undeserved sense of guilt and insecurity that caused us to become psychologically defensive, angry, alienated and egocentric, the upset state we refer to as the human condition — a state we sought to alleviate through a competitive, selfish and aggressive bid for the reinforcement we could gain from winning power, fame, fortune and glory. But now that we can explain and understand this conflict and the guilt it produced, all those insecure, defensive behaviours are obsoleted, brought to an end, and we free ourselves from the human condition. We suggest these two FAQs will help as you digest this further.  FAQ 1.6 ‘Why does understanding of the human condition solve everything?’ and FAQ 1.40 ‘Aren’t the problems of the world too overwhelming to ever be fixed? / Isn’t it too late to save the world? / How can you hope to transform the world? — In particular, how are you going to change the behaviour of the rich and powerful? / How are you going to reach the bastions of power? / Won’t the greedy and power-hungry simply ignore this?’.

Thank you for your comment Dr Cardoso. As with any new scientific breakthrough in history, it may take time for people to realise this is the universal solution we have all sought to all the problems we face, but once it catches on—through people recognising the importance of it — the infectious enthusiasm and selfless love it liberates will spread like wildfire, and people won’t be the least bit interested in anything except the human condition free world, and this is starting to happen! You can see this growing appreciation and support for the WTM with outstanding Commendations from thought leaders and WTM Centres popping up all over the world here on our homepage. Also see FAQs 1.4–1.6 for more on the speed in which this healing knowledge can turn humanity in the right direction and transform it.

Yes, many men have said something similar! Jeremy Griffith’s biological treatise explains that men in particular have had to carry the burden of searching for knowledge and becoming corrupted and egocentric as a result, but that ALL HUMANS ARE EQUALLY GOOD and equally heroic! We no longer have to just believe men and women are equal we can understand they are! To quote molecular biologist Dr Anna Fitzgerald from her commendation of Jeremy’s work: “because Griffith’s work establishes the equal worth or goodness of all humans we can now understand the different roles that men and women have traditionally played in the human journey and this is actually the unlocking point, this is what brings about deep empathy for each other, it heals the divide”, see Freedom Essay 9. And, as Jeremy says in concluding chapter 8:11B of his book FREEDOM, “With understanding of the human condition now found, men and women can at last stand side by side—the ‘war of the sexes’ can finally be resolved. Yes, the human journey can have the happy ending we always hoped it would.”

Thanks for your thoughts Robert, but we suggest that the question screaming to be answered is WHY when the universal ideals are to be loving and selfless, are we so competitive and selfish — such that we seek to dominate others and are unable to love ourselves, others and our world? It is this eternal question of the human condition that Jeremy Griffith has answered and why his work is heralded as the great breakthrough that can save the world — see FAQ 1.6 ‘Why does understanding of the human condition solve everything?’

Thank you Margaret. What is so different about this, and what sets it apart from all other attempts to ‘help humanity’, is that it does so by defending our ‘dark side’. We can now understand the battle between our intellect and our cooperative instincts caused us to become psychologically angry, alienated and egocentric, the upset state we refer to as the human condition. Now that we can understand this conflict all those insecure behaviours, such as selfishness, aggression, greed etc are obsoleted, brought to an end, and we free ourselves from that state and can legitimately return to a cooperative way of living.

While initial scepticism is warranted about the astonishing claims being made about this work the amazing fact is that they all withstand scrutiny. A person can begin reading the book and the more they read into it the more they will realise the claims being made are actually true as is evidenced by the ecstatic responses at the top of our homepage and the outstanding commendations this work has received from eminent scientists and thought leaders, here on our homepage. Also see FAQ 1.7 ‘What scientific support does this work have?’

I love this

Great idea 💯🔥

We all deserve to live in a free society.

Thank you for what you do.

Good response Winnie, but we suggest it won’t take that long. As is explained in Part 4 of THE Interview, this understanding of the human condition liberates us from an underlying insecurity and resulting psychosis that all humans have suffered from since we became a fully conscious species some 2 million years ago, which allows the immediate transformation of everyone’s life. As Jeremy Griffith explains, “while it will take a number of generations to heal all the upset in us humans, everyone can immediately live free of their upset. The reason we can live free of it is that while we lacked the real defence and reinforcement of understanding of our corrupted condition, we absolutely needed the artificial defences and reinforcements of attacking any criticism of our corrupted condition, of denying and blocking it out, and of finding any positive reinforcement we could—anger, alienation and egocentricity are what sustained us—but now that we have the real defence and reinforcement of our fundamental goodness, all these artificial defences and reinforcements are obsoleted, they are no longer needed.” You can read more about the immediate transformation this understanding makes possible in FAQ 4.1.

    As Jeremy explains in chapters 2:4 and 2:12 of FREEDOM, human-condition-avoiding, mechanistic, reductionist, deductive science is an extremely limited and compromised form of science. As Templeton Prize-winning biologist Charles Birch, who was Jeremy’s professor of biology at Sydney University, said, “[mechanistic] science can’t deal with subjectivity [the issue of our psychologically distressed condition]…what we were all taught in universities is pretty much a dead end” and “Biology has not made any real advance since Darwin”. Indeed, mechanistic science is now so farcically dishonest and discredited in the public’s mind that many people have lost interest in it to the point of dismissing it as of no real use to us in terms of being able to understand and manage our behaviour! Freedom Essay/Video 14 makes this discreditation very clear.     Thankfully mechanistic science can now be replaced by human-condition-confronting-and-solving, truthful, holistic, inductive science—but of course the established, entrenched, traditional mechanistic scientific paradigm resists this massive paradigm shift. It does this by ignoring the new synthesis, as well as using such outrageously dishonest and irresponsible claims as ‘the new synthesis presents no new data’, is an ‘untestable’ and ‘non-falsifiable’ hypothesis, and is therefore not even science! As is explained in FAQ 1.10, these accusations are transparently false and nothing more than the dying tremors of an old, extremely flawed form of dishonest science that has lived way past its used by date and is rapidly taking humanity to extinction!     It really is at the 11th hour that the often highly intellectualised, sophisticated-in-the-art-of-denial, pretentious, makes-it-seem-like-unreachable-knowledge-for-the-average-person, scientific presentations from the ivory towers of human-condition-avoiding academia are at last replaced by truthful, sensible, fully accountable, relatively simple and straightforward, soul-ualised not intellect-ualised scientific presentations, which is what FREEDOM provides for the human race.     For example, in chapter 5 of FREEDOM, Jeremy Griffith evidences that the cooperative and gentle bonobo represent a far better model of our human ancestors than the common chimpanzee. Both share approximately 99% of their DNA with humans, however bonobo physiology, bipedality, environment, intelligence and reduced canine size, better match our human ancestors. Reduced canine size is particularly relevant as it is arguably the outstanding features of the hominin clade, and universally accepted as an indication of reduced aggression. Fossil evidence of our cooperative past, including reduced canines, has lead the prominent anthropologist C. Owen Lovejoy to write that “our species-defining cooperative mutualism can now be seen to extend well beyond the deepest Pliocene [well beyond 5.3 mya]”. No, our selfishness and aggression is not instinctive in origin; all the evidence shows that our instinctive heritage is cooperative.     Our website contains many endorsements from eminent scientists, which you can read here.

‘Felix Culpa’ is Latin for ‘happy fault’, which in Christian thinking is sometimes applied to humanity’s ‘fall’, in that it was a happy or fortunate event because it allowed for the forgiveness and salvation of the world by Christ. It is true that we can now understand that humans had to suffer corruption of our original instinctive self in order to find the understanding that we needed to fulfil the potential of having a conscious mind, so yes, we can now understand that ‘eating the apple’ to again use a Christian metaphor, was a ‘fortunate’ event, even though the cost has been terrible suffering. And in the end, it is science that has allowed the forgiveness and salvation of the world, because it has provided the explanation of our behaviour that redeems us. The ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition allows us to understand that there has been a good reason for our apparently non-ideal behaviour. Ultimately, it establishes our self-worth; we can now understand that we are ‘good’!

Thank you for your comment, Roberta. Yes, as THE Interview explains, to legitimately return to our all-loving soulful state and build a peaceful world we desperately need to explain why we behave in the completely opposite way. This is the point or question of the human condition and to answer it we needed to find the scientific explanation for why when our instincts are to be cooperative and selfless are we so angry, competitive and selfish. This required finding the clarifying difference between the way the intellect and instincts work and that is the great biological breakthrough biologist Jeremy Griffith presents here. It couldn’t be more significant because at last we can explain away the guilt and shame we’ve carried for for living at odds with our selfless moral conscience.

    Yes, the nurturing based love-indoctrination process is incredibly fascinating. Millions of years ago, the mother’s maternal behaviour, which was a genetically selfish instinct, appeared to the infant to be selfless behaviour, which caused the infant to be ‘indoctrinated’ in selfless behaviour so that it behaved selflessly when it grew up, and eventually led to genuine cooperation or selflessness being developed. You can read more about the love-indoctrination process in chapter 5 of FREEDOM.     People such as Lipton put forward human-condition-denying theories for human cooperation, and there are also many ‘new age’ technique ssuch as yoga and ‘biodanza’ designed to allow us to transcend our upset condition. However, ultimately it was our destructively behaved, so-called human condition that really had to be dealt with if we were to solve the world’s problems and heal the human race. To do this we had to answer the age-old question of ‘why, when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless, are we so angry, competitive and selfish?’, and this required finding the clarifying difference between the way the intellect and instincts work, and that is the great biological breakthrough Jeremy presents. We recommend Jeremy’s book Therapy for the human condition, which explains how this instinct vs intellect explanation of the human condition differs from human-condition-avoiding theories.

Finding the answer to the human condition is the key to changing our society from a competitive one to a loving and cooperative one, and this ultimately depended on being able to explain our biology. There have been thousands of years of different techniques for calming, restraining, repressing, and even transcending our psychologically upset human condition and deferring to the soundness of our soul in one form or another, like in Buddhism, but none of them have brought an end to the upset state of the human condition—it’s still rampant everywhere. The reason is because they don’t solve the human condition. They don’t deal with the source of our species’ corrupted condition and bring relieving understanding to it. This is what Jeremy Griffith’s treatise does and why it is heralded as the biological breakthrough that can save the world. We recommend reading FAQ 1.13 ‘Is this idea original or new? / How does biologist Jeremy Griffith’s ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition differ from other theories that recognise these elements?’

I’m interested thanks

    At base, it doesn’t matter what instincts an animal has because when it became conscious and started to defy those naturally selected orientations, the instincts would in effect criticise any deviations from their dictates – see the Adam Stork analogy in Part 1 of THE Interview.     However, in the human situation, this criticism is amplified because we have altruistic, unconditionally selfless instincts which, as Jeremy Griffith explains in chapter 3:5 of his definitive book FREEDOM, leads to a second (and third) wave of criticism: “So in our case, when we began experimenting in understanding and were criticised by our instincts and unavoidably responded in an angry, egocentric and alienated way, we had to endure a further round of criticism, a second hit, a ‘double whammy’, from our instinctive orientation.”     With regard to your question about whether “rational thought suppressing natural instincts, in fact, cause cognitive dissonance?”, we suggest this is clearly the case. As Jeremy explains in chapter 3:4 of FREEDOM, “I should clarify that while instincts are hard-wired, genetic programming and as such cannot literally criticise our conscious mind, they can in effect do so. Our instincts let our conscious mind know when our body needs food, or, as our instinctive conscience clearly does, want us to behave in a cooperative, loving way, and certainly our conscious mind can defy those instinctive orientations if it chooses to. Our conscious mind can feel criticised by our instinctive conscience; it happens all the time.”For further reading on instincts and intellect and how they came into conflict, see FAQ 1.41 ‘What are instincts and what is consciousness, and how do they differ?’, FAQ 1.42 ‘If our instincts are loving and cooperative why would they criticise the conscious mind when it began experimenting with different behaviour?’ and FAQ 1.20 ‘Can you tell us exactly how the instinct vs intellect clash would have started? / What are some examples of early experiments in self-management that would have led to criticism from our instincts?’. Our FAQ 1.10 includes answers for what scientific evidence is there for the instinct vs intellect explanation, and you can see the excellent commendations Jeremy’s work has received here.

Interesting in waking up to a brand new concept on how we should live in human format....... The Interview was most impressive, and piques my interest 👌.....

The real issue here is the difference between a more literal fundamentalist interpretation of scripture and our more biological, science-based interpretation. If you prefer the more literal interpretation then we respect your right to do that, but you should respect our right to a science-based interpretation. For those interested, we recommend our FAQs on Religion.

    Hi Rob, thanks for your question and it is wonderful to have your interest. Regarding bonobos, while there are remnants of selfish reciprocity, sexual opportunism and aggression in bonobo behaviour, as indicated in THE Interview they are extraordinarily nurturing, and extraordinarily gentle and cooperative. When comparing them with the far more violent chimpanzees for example, the leading anthropologist and bonobo researcher Brian Hare observed that, “There has never been a recorded case in captivity or in the wild of a bonobo killing another bonobo”. Jeremy Griffith further evidences how cooperative and loving bonobos are in chapter 5 of his book FREEDOM and explains bonobos demonstrate the nurturing based love-indoctrination process that created our cooperative instincts, the ‘voice’ or expression of which is our conscience. This is summarised in FAQ 5.2 ‘How did we humans acquire our all-loving, unconditionally selfless moral conscience?/ What do the nurtured and cooperative bonobos tell us about our own evolutionary heritage? / How do you account for reports that bonobos hunt and kill, and even that male bonobos are more aggressive than chimpanzee males?’.     Understandably without explanation of the human condition, humans have found the cooperative and gentle nature of bonobos and our cooperative heritage highly confronting of our own psychologically upset state (dealt with at length in FREEDOM chs. 5 & 6) and instead want to use chimpanzee’s aggressive nature as a model for human behaviour (which supports the false ‘savage instincts’ excuse addressed in this interview). This quote from primatologist Frans de Waal, who refers to the bonobos as ‘the forgotten ape’, supports this (see ch. 6:6): “Two strategies have emerged to keep bonobos at a distance so as to preserve chimpanzee-based scenarios of human evolution, which traditionally emphasize warfare, hunting, tool use, and male dominance. The first strategy is to describe the bonobo as an interesting but specialized anomaly that can be safely ignored as a possible model of the last common ancestor… The second strategy, adopted by [Craig] Stanford, is to minimize the differences between the two Pan species: if bonobos behave, by and large, like chimpanzees, there is no reason to question the latter species’ prominence as a model”. Significantly, as Part 4 of THE Interview explains, having finally found the explanation for why we had to challenge our innocent, all-loving, cooperative instincts, all the retaliatory, defensive and insecure psychological upset in humans can now subside so yes it is beautiful as you rightly say “love is where we come from and where we go back to”!

Hi TimothyX, biologist Jeremy Griffith explains in this interview that all humans are born with all-loving, moral or “rigtheous” instincts but we now suffer from a universal psychosis caused by the clash between our instinct and intellect. We became psychologically upset (what historically we called “evil”) and alienated from our original selfless state because of our conscious mind’s necessary, and indeed heroic, search for knowledge. Significantly however we can “reverse” this psychological upset, as Jeremy explains in Part 1 of THE Interview, “it is actually really good news that our behaviour is due to a conscious-mind-based psychologically troubled condition because psychoses can be healed with understanding. If our competitive and aggressive behaviour was due to us having savage instincts then we would be stuck with that born-with, hard-wired, innate behaviour.” So even though time is running out as Jeremy explains in Part 4, once this takes off, this understanding will turn things around, and quickly, see FAQ 1.4 ‘How does being able to understand the human condition end the upset anger, egocentricity and alienation of the human condition? / How can everyone’s lives be immediately transformed?’ and FAQ 1.40 ‘Isn’t it too late to save the world? / How can you hope to transform the world?’

Thank you for your comment Renu. With regard to Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism, while religions contain all manner of truths about human life, it is all from a pre-scientific view. What has been missing from our consciousness is the scientific explanation for why when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless are we so angry, competitive and selfish. Answering this question required finding the clarifying difference between the way the intellect and instincts work, and that is the great biological breakthrough Jeremy presents in THE Interview and his book FREEDOM. Also, there has been thousands of years of different techniques like meditation for calming, restraining, repressing, and even transcending our psychologically upset human condition and deferring to the soundness of our soul in one form or another but none of them have brought an end to the upset state of the human condition—it’s still rampant everywhere. The reason is because they don’t solve the human condition. They don’t deal with the source of our species’ corrupted condition and bring relieving understanding to it. This is what Jeremy Griffith’s treatise does and why it is heralded as the biological breakthrough that can save the world — this critical difference is explained in FAQ 6.5 ‘Is this just another self-help, New Age, pseudo idealistic, superficial-treatment-of-psychosis type movement?’. Also FAQ 1.13 ‘Is this idea original or new? / How does biologist Jeremy Griffith’s ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition differ from other theories that recognise these elements?’.

English is not my first language but the way Jeremy Griffith presented his views on human condition hits me with the biggest “ Aha ” in my life.Everyone needs to listen to this Man.

This breakthrough explanation of the human condition is very simple but it is far from banal as FAQ 1.13 ‘Is this idea original or new? / How does biologist Jeremy Griffith’s ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation of the human condition differ from other theories that recognise these elements?’ explains and all the commendations Jeremy’s work has received from eminent scientists and thinkers here on our homepage attest. Also the very nature of the human condition means explanation of it can be initially difficult to access as it has been the most terrifying of subjects to face because it is the issue of whether we are fundamentally good or bad as a species, and we have necessarily lived in almost total denial of it. This ‘deaf effect’ and how to overcome it is explained in FAQ 1.16.

We presume you are advocating for the theory of ‘group selection’, the idea that altruism can be explained if a group of individuals is the primary unit of natural selection, not the gene. However, we suggest that at base, this is poor biology. We recommend chapter 2:11 of Jeremy Griffith’s definitive book FREEDOM where the difficulties with group selection are discussed. It includes the following quote from Steven Pinker: “Except in the theoretically possible but empirically unlikely circumstance in which groups bud off new groups faster than their members have babies, any genetic tendency to risk life and limb that results in a net decrease in individual inclusive fitness will be relentlessly selected against. A new mutation with this effect would not come to predominate in the population, and even if it did, it would be driven out by any immigrant or mutant that favored itself at the expense of the group.”

I am stunned beyond. This is an eye opener to the reality of life phenomenon.

We hope you continue to investigate Nelson, because you will quickly become convinced that it is true. With regard to be being misled, we assume you are referring to the ‘false savage insincts excuse’ for human behaviour, which is that we are angry, egocentric and alienated because of our genes' need to reproduce. As explained in Part 1 of THE Interview, this is the predominant excuse that humans have had to resort to in the absence of the real defence for our behaviour, which is what is presented here! We can now know that humans suffer from the conscious-mind-based, psychologically troubled human condition, not the genetic-opportunism-based, animal condition. And, most importantly, this psychosis can be healed with understanding — a revelation that transforms the human race — all explained on our Transformation page!

As explained in THE Interview, bonobos demonstrate the nurturing based love-indoctrination process, which it is evidenced, is the same process that we humans went through. Jeremy explains that every species would try to develop as much love-indoctrinated integration as their circumstances permit, which can be seen in animals like dolphins and elephants, but their physical and environmental situations have limited them from becoming fully ‘love-indoctrinated’, meaning they still remain in the genetically selfish ‘animal condition’. Regarding dogs, you might be interested in chapter 6:10 of Jeremy’s definitive book FREEDOM, in which he explains, “Juvenileness [which is what breeding has done to dogs] is a form of more tolerant socialness but it isn’t a selfless state. In fact, as stated, dogs and foxes who have been ‘puppyfied’ still aggressively compete for the resources of food, territory and mating opportunities, behaviour that lies in stark contrast to bonobos’ selfless and loving behaviour. Being prepared to mingle and socialise, even being more playful—like domesticated dogs—is an improvement on the SEM’s reduced aggression theory for bonobo behaviour, but the truth is it still falls well short of being able to account for bonobos’ unconditionally loving behaviour.”

Thank you Mwende. Yes, the instinct vs intellect clash is the source of all the dysfunction in the world today, however that dysfunction is largely passed onto subsequent generations through their encounter with the ‘upset’ already in the world, which to a large extent means through their parents. Which is not the parents fault, because in turn they were exposed to the upset through their parents, and so on. Which is why Jeremy’s work is so important, as it gets to the original source of all the “flawed human condition” and fundamentally lifts the ‘burden of guilt’ from the human race and allows us to forgive ourselves and others and finally end our psychologically troubled human condition. You might be interested in our FAQ 1.37 titled ‘How much of our upset is caused by our own search for knowledge and how much is caused by the accumulated upset already in the world?’

Thanks so much Barry. This information brings so much peace to everyone’s situations that it won’t be long before your ‘ship at sea docks’ and you can enjoy the fellowship that is on offer now. I suspect you are aware, but Jeremy often refers to Goya’s work (readers can use the search function in the top right of the screen to search for ‘Goya’). For example, Jeremy makes a wonderful analysis of two of Goya’s paintings in Freedom Essay 44, explaining that, “Goya was an artist who throughout his career bravely tried to penetrate the facade of denial and its fabrication of an artificially happy state and reach the underlying truth of our tortured, human-condition-afflicted, 2-million-year-soul-destroyed reality.”
