Man may be considered as having a twofold origin - natural, which is common and the same to all - patronymic, which belongs to the various families of which the whole human race is composed.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Man is an individual. The animals, plants and minerals are divided into species. They are not individualized in the same sense that man is.
We do not discuss the anatomical, physiological, and mental characteristics of man considered as an individual; but we are interested in the diversity of these traits in groups of men found in different geographical areas and in different social classes.
We are people, individuals comprising a variety of sexes, races, shifting sexualities and all the rest of it. Every convention that tries to reinforce this difference is a step back. Notions of gender pointlessly separate men from women, but also mothers from daughters and fathers from sons.
According to the now almost universally accepted theory, all the races of mankind had a common origin.
A man is sometimes as different from himself as he is from others.
Whatever the universal nature assigns to any man at any time is for the good of that man at that time.
A man is a man in every part of the world. It has nothing to do with race. It has to do with the culture and education that each man has received since he was a child, in his home. It has to do with how he was raised.
Is the human race a universal constructor?
I think we are defined as human beings through our families, no matter what kind of family - through our relationships with parents, brothers and sisters.
The proper study of mankind is man in his relation to his deity.
