Humanity at the centre of the primates, Homo sapiens, in humanity, is the end-product of a gradual work of creation, the successive sketches for which still surround us on every side.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Humanity is still advancing; and it will probably continue to advance for hundreds of thousands of years more, always on condition that we know how to keep the same line of advance as our ancestors towards ever greater consciousness and complexity.
Humanity was created in the image of God; our love is a reflection of his.
Essentially, all expressions of human nature ever produced, from a caveman's paintings to Mozart's symphonies and Einstein's view of the universe, emerge from the same source: the relentless dynamic toil of large populations of interconnected neurons.
Knowing that we are primates, I think, is a fascinating discovery, and a very interesting and rather cheering one.
From the dust of the earth, from the common elementary fund, the Creator has made Homo sapiens. From the same material he has made every other creature, however noxious and insignificant to us. They are earth-born companions and our fellow mortals.
I see humanity now as one vast plant, needing for its highest fulfillment only love, the natural blessings of the great outdoors, and intelligent crossing and selection.
The human's place in the universe will be set in the scheme of evolution, the product of our biological inheritance.
By virtue of being born to humanity, every human being has a right to the development and fulfillment of his potentialities as a human being.
All of us are guinea pigs in the laboratory of God. Humanity is just a work in progress.
The chief obstacle to the progress of the human race is the human race.
