Comments on THE Interview

Thank you for your comment Peji. We thought it important to make it clear that the study of humans’ capacity for so-called ‘good and evil’ is the realm of inquiry where science and religion overlap, so in explaining the human condition religion is demystified and explained. As the Nobel prize-winning physicist Charles H. Townes recognised, science and religion “both represent man’s efforts to understand his universe and must ultimately be dealing with the same substance. As we understand more in each realm, the two must grow together…converge they must.” And this is what Jeremy Griffith’s work does. It reconciles science and religion by bringing biological understanding to religion’s pre-scientific descriptions of our condition (see our FAQs about religion).

   There is no suggestion that we should dismiss the problems of the world. On the contrary, the whole purpose of this movement is to ‘FIX THE WORLD’. And there is only one way we can do that, and that is by first fixing the human condition because all the problems the world faces are a result of our angry, egocentric and alienated behaviour.

   What is so significant about the explanation of the human conditon, and which takes a bit of time to absorb, is that this understanding defends our so-called ‘dark side’ and explains that despite all appearances to the contrary, all humans are ‘good’. However – paradoxically – by explaining the very good reason why our intellect had to defy our instincts, it makes redundant our defensive behaviours of anger, egocentricity and alienation, allowing us to end the perpetuation of our destructive behaviour!

Just follow your interest Donna, and you won’t be disappointed! The more you digest Jeremy Griffith’s ‘instinct vs intellect’ explanation, the more you will realise how accountable it is in getting to the source of all humanity’s psychological upset. Our FIX THE WORLD homepage — HumanCondition.com — provides an initial guide to learn more (and it is all FREE, and no registration required). At the top of the homepage it states ‘WHAT NEXT after watching THE Interview?’ and leads you through the steps to pursue your interest!

It’s great you enjoyed THE Interview Noel! You can immediately access free copies of THE Interview, Jeremy Griffith’s latest book The Human Condition and his main book FREEDOM (to read, listen to, download and even print) on the FIX THE WORLD homepage under the ‘WHAT NEXT’ section.

    We greatly appreciate your interest Thomas and agree this human-condition-solving understanding needs to reach thought leaders, including politicians, especially given the extreme conflict in the world. As you suggest people with great influence in the world can make a huge impact and that also encourages others to seriously consider this explanation. This has been confirmed by the impressive commendations we already have, including from psychiatrist Professor Harry Prosen, a former president of the Canadian Psychiatric Association, who said: “I have no doubt this biological explanation of the human condition is the holy grail of insight we have sought for the psychological rehabilitation of the human race.”. You can see all these commendations on the Commendations page of our website. So continuing to gain the support of thought leaders is very important especially given the challenge of the initial resistance discussion of the human condition can cause. Jeremy explains this ‘deaf effect’ in his companion presentation to THE Interview titled The Great Guilt that causes the Deaf Effect which comprehensively deals with our understandably defensive and cynical mindset when it comes to the subject of the human condition. It includes examples of people overcoming the deaf effect and it is an incredibly revealing and fascinating presentation which can be watched or read here on FIX THE WORLD homepage.

    Also, you’ll see in our FAQ 3.4 ‘How can I help FIX THE WORLD’ that we encourage everyone to get on board and help us disseminate these world-saving understandings, because even though a thought leader may have been contacted in the past, if people want to send copies of Jeremy’s books to anyone (THE Interview being the ideal introduction) by all means please do. As it says there, “Only by doing this will this all-important information finally gain the attention of some of these high profile thought leaders. We at FIX THE WORLD never stop trying and if everyone that has recognised the importance of this information never stops trying, we will eventually break into their consciousness”. The FAQ also includes an email template for approaching thought leaders which people find helpful. 

    Jeremy’s ‘instinct vs intellect explanation allows us to fully understand the thinking of people like Ayn Rand. We can now see that Rand was right to champion reason or the intellect over our all loving, cooperative instincts; just as she was right to champion selfishness and egocentricity over ‘collectivism’ (a term Rand used frequently) in all its forms, because ‘collectivism’ or the insistence on ideal behaviour, inhibited the all-important, but corrupting, search for knowledge. However, we can also see that the science Rand used to justify her position was poor biology. For example, in his book Death by Dogma, Jeremy focuses on politics and in particular the danger presented by the left wing which provides the synthesis you are after. The danger is that the left wing’s insistence on ideal ‘collectivist’ behaviour oppresses the corrupting, but critically important search for knowledge, whereas the right wing, through its support of selfish individualism, supported that all-critical search. As Jeremy explains in Death by Dogma, “So although the ideology of the Right was correct, unable to confront the truth of our corrupted human condition and thus find the true instinct vs intellect explanation for why we have had to be competitive, selfish and aggressive, they were left having to contrive a way to justify our seemingly ‘reactionary’, non-ideal, competitive, selfish and aggressive behaviour, which they did (as indicated in the quote above) by using the biologically dishonest ‘must reproduce your genes’, Social Darwinist, ‘survival of the fittest’, ‘savage instincts’ excuse that said we humans are innately, naturally competitive, selfish and aggressive, ‘war-like, greedy and oppressive’. Which meant the colossal philosophical heroes of the Right who bravely defended our competitive and aggressive state like the author Ayn Rand, and more recently the psychologist Jordan Peterson, were ultimately doomed to fail because their arguments were based on false biology.” We also recommend our FAQs about Politics. 

Yes Aniko finally having the truth about humans is immensely relieving. What is so significant about Jeremy Griffith’s explanation of the human condition is we no longer have to be burdened by the fundamental question of whether we are good or bad because our core goodness as individuals and as a species has been biologically established. We can understand humans’ psychological upset was the price humans had to pay for searching for knowledge and that the human story presents the greatest, most heroic story ever told, and in that sense we are in fact ‘divine’. As Jeremy says in Part 4 of THE Interview, we “were actually the complete opposite of evil, namely truly wonderful, good and meaningful—in fact not just good but the hero of the story of life on Earth!” Although this is science, it is based on a ‘Godly’ nature in the sense of recognising, like all the great religions do, that we humans once lived in a pre-human-condition-afflicted state of original innocence where we were perfectly instinctively orientated to the cooperative, selfless, loving, ‘Godly’ ideals of life; ‘God’ being explained as being the personification of integrative meaning of life. We also think you might these FAQs of interest: FAQ 6.2 ‘What is God’ and FAQ 6.3 ‘Does this understanding undermine religion’.

   We appreciate your interest and feedback Tiana. We did want to clarify that there is a huge difference between Jeremy Griffith’s biological treatise and ‘A Course in Miracles’, which is articulated in this comment on our Video/Freedom Essay 9 by subscriber Lesley Davies. Lesley said: “I can now see why A Course in Miracles didn’t work for me. I completed the 365 day course three years running to try and heal myself from deep depression and anxiety. After reading [Freedom] essay 15 and studying Freedom [the book] it becomes clear that without the explanation of WHY we are so upset ACIM can only act as a sticky plaster with the ‘scream’ still going on underneath.” FAQ 6.5 explains this huge difference between Jeremy’s work and the new age movement.

   Yes forgiveness is the key but it had to be forgiveness at the most profound, deepest level of our psychosis; forgiveness found through understanding of the dilemma of our human condition—understanding that would allow all humans to know that while we are all variously upset we are all fundamentally good and not bad or “sinful”. It is this understanding that Jeremy presents in THE Interview and it truly allows us to forgive others and ourselves for their/our “injured” angry, egocentric and alienated behaviour. It is this knowledge that lifts the burden of guilt from our shoulders and why it is so liberating and freeing. As THE Interview’s host, Craig Conway, exclaims after Jeremy explains the story of Adam and Eve is a pre-scientific metaphor for the emergence of consciousness and its clash with our pre-established loving instincts “Yeah, I hadn’t realised that, but it is true, I mean Adam and Eve taking the fruit from the tree of knowledge is a metaphor for becoming conscious, and then they were thrown out of the Garden of Eden of original innocence because it appeared that they were bad for doing so, but now thankfully we can explain that they, we humans, weren’t bad at all; in fact, we are the heroes of the story of life on Earth!”

   Yes. What is so exciting about the explanation is that it is redeeming. It explains 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’!

    In terms of religion it brings biological understanding to religion’s pre-scientific descriptions of our condition. With the human condition now solved, humans will become, as Jeremy explains in chapter 9 of FREEDOM, ‘universal beings’, pure expressions of love, and with full understanding of who we are and what we are doing. For instance at the end of Part 3 of THE Interview Jeremy briefly explains that ‘God’ is the personification of the Negative-Entropy-driven integrative meaning of existence. This explanation — which is summarised in FAQ 6.2 ‘What is ‘God’?’ and fully presented in chapter 4 of FREEDOM — forms a key part of Jeremy’s thesis, because it shows that love is the theme of existence; it is the meaning of life. Now we can understand that in order to search for this understanding we had to defy our loving instincts and become angry, egocentric and alienated we can legitimately return to the cooperative and loving state we once lived in.

    You have come to the right place Daniel. Every day more and more people are waking up to the astonishing fact that biologist Jeremy Griffith has actually SOLVED the human condition!     The best place to begin is with THE Interview, in which biologist Jeremy Griffith presents his breakthrough ‘Instinct vs Intellect’ explanation of the human condition — it’s the ideal introduction to his work.     From there, ideally you would read the two expansions: Jeremy’s mid-length 2025 book The Human Condition, and his definitive book, FREEDOM. All our videos and books are freely available to watch, read or download at FIX THE WORLD at HumanCondition.com.

Yes! Jonathan Livingston Seagull is the famous New Age book by Richard Bach about a seagull who leaves the flock in order to search for perfection. It is a recognition that there must be something better than our current human condition afflicted state and that someone had to be prepared to stand outside of the current paradigm of thinking in order to find it. In the end, unlike New Age doctrines that encourage transcendence of our upset condition, this could only be achieved by confronting, truthfully thinking about, and finally explaining and thus solving the human condition at its source, which is what Jeremy Griffith has done. All humans can now “play” in celebration.

    What Jeremy Griffith presents in THE Interview most certainly meets humanity’s psychological needs! In fact, by explaining the human condition, not only does he get to the source of, and heal, humanity’s profound psychological insecurity, but by doing so, addresses why we have needed material goods beyond our immediate needs, as well as social reinforcement to compensate.     And most wonderfully, by explaining the very good reason why our intellect had to defy our instincts (which is that genes can orientate but nerves need to understand) our defensive behaviours of anger, egocentricity and alienation are made redundant, which means we are finally in a position to fix the world. In Part 4 of THE Interview, Jeremy explains how the psychological rehabilitation of the human race that the arrival of understanding of the human condition finally makes possible, actually occurs.

It’s wonderful to have your interest; and yes, Jeremy Griffith’s treatise does resonate deeply with those familiar with religious scripture because it actually reconciles science and religion by bringing biological understanding to pre-scientific concepts such as innocence, sin and ‘Judgment Day’, etc. In fact, what people discover is it is the fulfilment of a time that all religions looked forward to when we could actually explain ourselves. We think you will also find very interesting our FAQs on religion.

It is certainly the 11th hour, but as Jeremy Griffith explains, once this takes off, this information will turn things around almost overnight, see FAQ 1.4. We recommend Jeremy’s Freedom Essays about ‘Do we fail or do we make it?’ (see F. Essays 55—58). These present a fearlessly honest analysis of the state of the world followed by how the extraordinary transforming power of this information can save the world. So come and help us do exactly that and join our FIX THE WORLD Facebook Group to share in this transforming knowledge.

    In relation to writers such as Napoleon Hill, Neville Goddard, Joel S. Goldsmith and Edgar Cayce, their work generally focuses on consciousness, belief, and ways of managing or elevating the human experience. However, they don’t attempt to provide a biological explanation for why humans became psychologically conflicted in the first place, which is what Jeremy Griffith does in THE Interview.     Certainly there is a lot to digest here Peter, but we can now understand that when we humans developed a conscious mind some two million years ago, a battle unavoidably developed between it and our already established instincts. The result of this conflict between our instinct and intellect was an undeserved sense of guilt and insecurity that caused us to become psychologically upset — angry, egocentric and alienated. But now that we can explain and understand this conflict and the guilt it produced, all those insecure, defensive, egocentric behaviours are obsoleted, brought to an end, and we free ourselves from the human condition.     To quote our Transformation page: “We can understand ourselves now. We can make sense of all the chaos, suffering and seeming madness in human life. Science has finally made it possible for the whole jigsaw of confusion and mystery about us humans to be fitted together so that it all makes sense. In particular, we can understand why we fully conscious humans corrupted our original all-loving and all-sensitive instinctive self or soul. Yes, the great burden of guilt from having destroyed the magic world of our soul has at last been lifted! We have found the key understanding that ends the underlying pain in our brains and allows the human race to become sound and sane again!”

It’s wonderful you’ve found this explanation Danny as yes biologist Jeremy Griffith explains in THE Interview, humans’ divisive behaviour is not a product of unchangeable savage animal instincts within us, but the result of a universal psychosis caused by a clash between our instincts and intellect. And significantly since a psychosis can be healed with understanding, human behaviour is not unchangeable or immutable — a revelation that transforms the human race! In terms of your question certainly, being born into a world that is already drenched with psychological upset (expressed as anger, egocentricity and alienation) has a terrible effect on young people growing up, resulting in even higher levels of upset – so it is a compounding situation. Jeremy explains this in Part 2 with the graph titled ‘The race between self-destruction and self-understanding’. To quote Jeremy “While we’ve had to live in denial of our corrupted, psychologically upset condition while we couldn’t explain it, the truth is that on a graph showing the ever-increasing levels of upset in humans, those levels, especially of psychosis and alienation, have been increasing so rapidly lately that the line tracking their rise is near vertical with the amount of upset virtually doubling now in each new generation!” (You may be interested in Jeremy’s Freedom Essay 55: ‘Endgame for the human race’, for more on this rapidly deteriorating situation.) However, as Jeremy reveals the clash between ‘instinct vs intellect’ is the ultimate source of all that upset. (You can also watch/read more in Video/Freedom Essay 2 ‘Debunking the false savage instincts excuse for human behaviour’.)

We love your enthusiasm Richard and thank you for sharing it!! For other readers we wanted to clarify people can immediately access free copies of THE Interview and Jeremy Griffith’s definitive book FREEDOM (to read, listen to, download and even print) on the FIX THE WORLD homepage under the ‘WHAT NEXT after watching THE Interview’ section.

Thank you for your thoughts M. What is so significant about biologist Jeremy Griffith treatise is it resolves our psychosis at its source which brings healing understanding to it. In THE Interview Jeremy explains that all humans are born with loving instincts, not competitive animal instincts, but now variously suffer from a psychosis due to the human condition caused by the conscious mind’s necessary search for knowledge. So we are born innocent of this psychosis, or corruption of our instinctive self or soul, and our individual encounter with the human condition dictated how psychologically upset or corrupted in self we became. So society could continue to function and our species could keep progressing toward finding an answer to our corrupted condition we learnt to civilise or restrain our upset destructive behaviour, in effect choose positivity and kindness over anger and frustration. Jeremy talks about this in THE Interview Part 4: “While we have learnt to significantly restrain and conceal—‘civilise’ as we refer to it—the phenomenal amount of upset within us, under the surface we all must be boiling with rage, and sometimes, when our restraint can no longer find a way to contain it, that anger must express itself—hence our capacity for shocking acts of cruelty, sadism, hate, murder and war.” However to stop our ever-increasing levels of upset we needed to find the scientific explanation for the age-old question of why when the universal ideals are to be loving, cooperative and selfless are we so angry, competitive and selfish. Answering this required finding the clarifying difference between the way the intellect and instincts work and that is the great biological breakthrough Jeremy presents here. So thankfully with that redeeming answer to the human condition now found, rather than having to control our behaviour through discipline or living by a moral code, our psychological upset can actually subside, and we can truly be liberated from the human condition. This is why Jeremy’s treatise is heralded as being able to fix the world. For instance as Professor Harry Prosen, a former president of the Canadian Psychiatric Association, has said: “I have no doubt Jeremy Griffith’s work is the holy grail of insight we have sought for the psychological rehabilitation of the human race.” Most importantly this explanation does not condone or sanction such upset, rather, through bringing understanding to humans’ upset behaviour, it gives us the power to ameliorate and thus subside and ultimately eliminate it, see our FAQ 1.38 ‘Aren’t some people just born psychopathic, or even ‘evil’? / How does this explanation rehabilitate people capable of ‘evil’ behaviour? / Does this condone ‘evil’ behaviour?’

    Hi Hans, yes finally we have the science to explain the “madness we have created” and how we can fix it! We suggest the more you digest how the ‘instinct vs intellect’ battle resulted in humans’ psychologically upset state, the clearer it becomes that, in the extreme, that upset produces very dysfunctional and destructive behaviour, including narcissism. However, what is so utterly exonerating and psychologically healing about our ability to now understand this is that we can finally appreciate that there was a very good — indeed heroic — reason for our selfish, destructive, egocentric behaviour. Importantly, this understanding of why we became upset as a species does not condone or sanction such extremes of selfishness, rather, through bringing understanding to humans’ upset behaviour, it gives us the power to ameliorate and thus subside and ultimately eliminate it, see our FAQ 1.38 ‘How does this rehabilitate evil?’. We also recommend FAQ 1.40 ‘How can you hope to transform the world? In particular, how are you going to change the behaviour of the rich and powerful? / Won’t the greedy and power-hungry simply ignore this?’. This FAQ explains how everyone, even those most craving a life of pursuing power, fame, fortune and glory can be transformed.     The absolutely astonishing claims being made about Jeremy’s work warrant initial extreme scepticism and further the realm of the human condition is the most ‘muddied of pools’ with deluded charlatans everywhere. However what Jeremy is presenting is all first principle-based, rational, testable, biological understanding of the human condition which has attracted the support of eminent scientists and thinkers which you can see on our Commendations page. There is no hidden agenda, dogma, faith or belief involved. It’s all about knowledge that either stacks up or it doesn’t — and if it doesn’t you should throw it over your shoulder and reject it, see FAQ 1.9 ‘Why people can have confidence in these claims’. Also Jeremy clarifies in Part 4 of THE Interview, and is explained in FAQ 6.5, his work is not another deluded new age-type, false start to a new world for humans that can’t and doesn’t last. To quote “there’s one more thing I should explain, which is that socialism, the new age movement, the politically correct movement, and all the other idealistic movements, were actually all false starts to a human-condition-free world because the upsetting battle to find knowledge, ultimately self-knowledge, the psychologically relieving understanding of why we are good and not bad, still had to be completed. In fact, while dogmatically insisting that everyone should be cooperative and loving could make you feel that you were doing good and be superficially psychologically very relieving, such insistence on ideal behaviour denied people the freedom they needed to be able to continue the all-important upsetting search for knowledge. These movements were pseudo idealistic movements that stifled and oppressed the search for the understanding of our corrupted condition that was needed to actually free us from that state. They were regressive, not progressive as they deluded themselves they were.”

Great to have your interest Lala. We suggest the only way we can “focus on our own ancestral instincts” is to explain why we left that natural way of existing. Ultimately we needed to find 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 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. This understanding brings profound peace to everyone’s situation because it finally explains the real reason for why humans’ angry, egocentric and alienated behaviour became an unavoidable, indeed necessary, part of human life. And with our goodness biologically established, we no longer need to be preoccupied with proving our worth. Solving the human condition solves all the confusion, frustration and suffering in human life at its source so we can actually stop the angry destruction of ourselves and the planet and fix the world, see our FAQ 1.4 ‘How does this understanding transform the world?’ and FAQ 1.5 ‘Why is this explanation important to my life?’

Hi Mike, Jeremy Griffith explains in THE Interview that our destructive and “nasty” behaviour is not an expression of animal “killer” instincts within us. Our selfish behaviour is the result of the human condition — a psychosis caused by humanity’s heroic, but corrupting, search for knowledge. In biological terms, our instincts were in effect intolerant of our emerging intellect’s need to find understanding, which resulted in us becoming psychologically defensive, angry, alienated and egocentric. Most importantly, as is explained in Part 4, this psychosis can be healed with understanding so it couldn’t be more momentous! Also, you might like to read our reply to Pete, directly below, as it explains further that the key biological distinction between humans and other animal species is that humans suffer from the conscious-mind-based, psychologically troubled human condition, not the genetic-opportunism-based, animal condition.

    Thank you for your comment Pete. Jeremy Griffith explains the key biological distinction between humans and other animal species is that humans suffer from the conscious-mind-based, psychologically troubled human condition, not the genetic-opportunism-based, animal condition. This is not “fortifying the idea that we are special” in any way rather it is presenting critical new science which explains the true source of our destructive selfishness (which significantly, because it is driven by our psychology rather than our genes, can be healed with understanding). Jeremy explains that genetic selfishness normally means that animals have to be competitive (in order to ensure that their genes reproduce). However in Part 3 of the interview Jeremy explains that our ancestors overcame this genetic selfishness through the love-indoctrination process and developed love and cooperation, a process the fossil record and the extraordinarily nurturing bonobos, who have developed this love-indoctrination process to a lesser degree, evidence. We suggest our FAQ 5.2 ‘‘How did we humans acquire our all-loving, unconditionally selfless moral conscience?/ What do bonobos tell us about our own evolutionary heritage?’     The astonishing claims being made about Jeremy’s work do warrant initial scepticism, and can be initially off-putting, however the beauty of these ideas is that they are fully accountable, scientific explanations, so everyone can follow the logic and verify for themselves if it makes sense of existence. As our FAQ 1.9 ‘Why people can have confidence in the bold claims’ explains, Professor Harry Prosen, a former president of the Canadian Psychiatric Association, has endorsed the significance of Jeremy’s treatise, saying “I have no doubt Jeremy Griffith’s biological explanation of the human condition is the holy grail of insight we have sought for the psychological rehabilitation of the human race.” So we understand people’s initial scepticism but 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 and become appreciated for their forthright honesty in indicating where the solution to our problems lies. This is evidenced by the ecstatic responses at the top of our homepage HumanCondition.com and the outstanding commendations Jeremy’s work has received from eminent scientists and thought leaders, here on our homepage.

While religions contain all manner of truths about human life they are coming from a pre-scientific view. Ultimately we needed to find 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. This breakthrough at last reconciles science and religion by bringing biological understanding to pre-scientific concepts. What people discover is, rather than threatening religions this explanation is the fulfilment of a time that all the great prophets looked forward to when we could actually explain ourselves. People can read more about the reconciliation of science and religion in FAQ 1.15 and FAQ 6.2.

Hi Brave, the breakthrough explanation of the human condition presents a massive paradigm shift in our thinking so it’s natural to need to take time to digest all it reveals. As Jeremy Griffith describes, the human condition has historically been such a fearful, off-limits topic and the mind simply needs time to ride out the initial shock of having it broached and all manner of mystery unlocked. The more you do absorb this explanation, the more you realise just how all-clarifying, all-redeeming, all-reconciling, all-healing, all-liberating it is!

Yes, ‘the fall’, to use religious terminology, was caused by the emerging conscious mind’s search for knowledge, which was in effect criticised by our pre-established instincts which were ‘intolerant’ of those experiments in self-management. Understanding that the conscious mind is an insightful learning tool, and therefore needs to find understanding to operate, removes the burden of guilt from humanity. Rather than being ‘sinful’ for taking the fruit from the tree of knowledge, we can now understand that we conscious humans are heroes, not villains. Having found the good reason that we had to defy our instincts means all our defensive behaviours (our anger, egocentricity and alienation) are now redundant. This is the essence of the transformation that is now available.

Thank you very much Dr Singh. Yes, there have been many significant contributions to the human journey of understanding, ultimately understanding itself, but we suggest that what is unique about Jeremy Griffith’s work is that he has answered the essential question of why, when the universal ideals are to be integrative are we so disintegrative? Our endeavours in philosophy, psychology and biology have failed, until now, to provide a truthful, real, fully accountable, genuinely clarifying explanation. 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 here. And most significantly, this understanding means that that psychologically upset state can be ameliorated, because a psychosis can be healed through understanding. We recommend FAQ 1.13 ‘Is this idea original or new?' which explains the unique significance of Jeremy’s work.

I think it’s a lot of blur blur blur when the answer to the human problem nothing to it🫤. Plus how could a race 🫤who has the skill to kill and a love to spill blood 💯come with a answer to solve the human condition 😏when it’s own race conditions knows not love 🥴personal I would like him to know it’s simple let the children of truth put they narrative out they😇A G MARKS

    What Jeremy Griffith is presenting is understanding of the source insecurity that the whole human race suffers from for having destroyed our species’ innocent soul. It isn’t just politicians; it is a universal self-blame that his understanding at last provides healing insight into. All human behavior is saturated with that universal insecure, depressing state and resulting anger, egocentricity and alienation that has developed from it, but we finally have the compassionate foundation insight needed to dismantle all that ‘upset’/ psychosis. So the real psychotherapy of our collective and individual psychoses can begin” (see FAQ 1.34 ‘How does this help with an individual’s depression and psychosis?’). So one of things Professor Prosen makes clear is that we all suffer from the human condition, not just those with wealth and power. We also suggest FAQ 1.40 which addresses the questions of ‘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?’     At last we can also explain that the more innocent or sheltered ‘races’ (ethnic groups) such as indigenous peoples, have not been as exposed to humanity’s heroic battle to find knowledge as less sheltered races, and so they aren’t as psychologically upset as those less sheltered races. So yes, more sheltered races have more affinity with our instinctive soulful, cooperative way of living and nature. However, again, all humans are now part of the extremely upset stage of humanity, H. sapiens sapiens, and are therefore nowhere near as innocent as humans were some 2 million years ago when the battle of the human condition first emerged. Also, most significantly, despite the differing levels of upset due to everyone’s different encounters with humanity’s heroic battle to find knowledge, we are all equally good.

Great, thank you Lois. Yes, what we “learn and experience” has a profound effect upon us, so someone’s particular encounter with the human condition in their formative years will determine their ‘character’. But at this stage in the human journey virtually everyone is now ‘psychologically upset’. Being born into a world that is already drenched with anger, egocentricity and alienation has a terrible effect on young people growing up. But what Jeremy Griffith has done by identifying the clash between ‘instinct vs intellect’ is identify the ultimate source of all that ‘upset’. And most wonderfully, by explaining the very good reason why our intellect had to defy our instincts, our defensive behaviours of anger, egocentricity and alienation are made redundant, which means we are finally in a position to stop that compounding increase in upset at its source. In Part 4 of THE Interview, Jeremy explains how the psychological rehabilitation of the human race that the arrival of understanding of the human condition finally makes possible, actually occurs.

Hi Joanne, it is explained that the original genetic instinct for maternalism is a naturally selected instinctive orientation that evolved because it promotes the perpetuation of its genes through better protecting its offspring. HOWEVER, in Part 3 of THE Interview it is explained that over time, through the love indoctrination process, maternalism became a case of mothers actively loving their offspring — which was to prove the unlocking point for our species to develop our altruistic, moral instinctive self or soul, and our unique consciousness. You can read more about the nurturing-based love-indoctrination process in chapter 5 of Jeremy’s definitive book FREEDOM. You can also read a summary of this in Freedom Essay 21.
