Existence of Humans and Animals Being Guided by Instinct or Culture
Attempts to govern human conduct, according to David Frum, are likely to be met with resistance and criticism. Humans, like other animals, have instincts, which are genetically hardwired responses that improve our capacity to cope with critical environmental circumstances. Other drives, such as denial, vengeance, tribal allegiance, greed, and the need to reproduce, pose a threat to our basic life. Humanity is on the verge of extinction unless we change our ways, authors writes.
We have created economic and societal structures that reward greed, and we have even institutionalized it. We are completely oblivious to the fact that human numbers are increasing, author’s claims. Earth's scarce resources cannot support 7.6 billion people in the way we want to live. To avoid the impending collapse, Pereira Sartori Falguera says, we can no longer wait and react, but must become proactive.
People have an inherent dread of snakes since they evolved alongside these hazardous creatures. Our ancestors' lives were spared by this dread, which became hard-wired intrinsic behavior, also known as instinct. Our incredible capacity for denial helped primitive people deal with dangerous conditions, but we now employ denial to avoid facing reality, particularly overpopulation. When humans lived in tiny communities, tribal loyalty and retribution made sense, but these tendencies are now threatening our basic existence (Pereira Sartori Falguera et al.).”
