The perspective is that we are a sick nation. We must take a social-psychiatric perspective on the healing of the nation. - David Elliot Loye

In the 1980s I became involved in advanced evolution research after a secret meeting of concerned scientists behind the Iron Curtain. Fearing that nuclear war would break out between Russia and the U.S., scientists from both sides secretly met in Budapest to see if the destructive fixation on Darwinian “survival of the fittest” could be replaced with a new cooperatively oriented theory of evolution.

You go to church on Sunday, you tithe and go there on the holidays. But in the meantime, the other six days of the week, the orientation is screw your neighbor. Instead of “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” it has become, “Do unto others before they can do it unto you.” That’s the regressive dominator morality.

The academics get paid for teaching whatever limited understanding they have to a fresh crop of little people who are yearning for a larger picture. What they get too often is a succession of tame disciples imprisoned within barriers to the larger vision.
