Zwei Versionen der Darwinschen Evolutionstheorie – David Loye

Zwei Auslegungen der Evolutionstheorie von Charles Darwin
Reduzierter Darwinismus – Dominanz / Unterwerfung (1859) ⇔
Wiederentdeckter Darwinismus – Partnerschaft (2007)¹

Darwins Evolutionstheorie weist aus, dass Entwicklung wesentlich beflusst wird durch
moralisches Empfinden, ethische Einfühlung und (Herzens)Bildung,
NICHT durch Konkurrenzverhalten.
Diese Erkenntnis blieb fast 150 Jahre lang verborgen.

Lebensbereich	Breite Straße	Schmaler Weg – Enge Pforte
Theorie	Reduzierter Darwinismus (1859) "Überleben des Stärkeren" Syndrom des egoistischen Gens	Wiederentdeckter Darwinismus (2007) Liebende Evolutionstheorie Gegenseitige Fürsorge
Verhaltensmodus	Dominierend KONKURRENZDENKEN	Partnerschaftlich ZUSAMMENARBEIT
Antrieb	Motivation	Inspiration
Alter	Pubertät Jugendliche Selbstbezogenheit	Erwachsenenreife Gereifte Gegenseitigkeit
Gemeinschaft	Mindermenschliche, menschenverachtende und menschenunwürdige Evolution	Entfaltete menschliche Evolution
Politik	Bearbeitung (Unterwerfung) und Anpassung	Durchsetzung und Streben
Wirtschaft	Egoismus und Gier, die wenigen Privilegierten Wohlstand ermöglicht verbunden mit einem menschenfreundlichen Trickle-down-Effekt zugunsten der Vielen	Fürsorglichkeit und miteinander Teilen, um die Schätze der Erde an viele weiterzureichen

Hinweis: Der Paläontologe Stephen J. Gould (1941-2002) war zeitlebens ein Vertreter der herkömmlichen Auslegung von Darwins Evolutionstheorie. Dennoch wies er wiederholt darauf hin, dass die Weltanschauung des Faschismus (Totalitarismus) mit dem
darwinistischen Denkmodell des Überleben des Stärkeren einhergeht.

Pasteurs Eingeständnis auf dem Sterbebett:

Entgegen seinen eigenen wiederholten Forschungsergebnissem, welche die spontane Lebensentstehung unter sterilen mikrobiologischen Laborbedingungen bestätigten, hatte Pasteur zeitlebens die sozialdarwinistische reduktionistische Auslegung der Evolutionstheorie Darwins vertreten. In den Jahren 1860-1880 ging die wissenschaftliche Debatte darum, ob 'Selbstentstehung' [spontane Lebensemergenz] möglich sei oder nicht. Pasteur hatte Bernards Feldthese des Nährbodens erfolgreich unterdrückt.² Auf seinem Sterbebett anerkannte Pasteur die Gültigkeit der Arbeit seines von ihm zu Lebzeiten verfolgten Kollegen Bernard.

Ein lebendiger Organismus zieht eine Grenze und hat eine Gestalt, die sich aber nie absolut abschottet gegen das chaotisch Offene, also insofern immer offen bleibt und beweglich bleibt und auf der anderen Seite bildet sie natürlich eine Form aus, die aber nie ins Extrem der absoluten Erstarrung (Kristallisation) abdriftet.

Die Evolution der Menschheit wird durch Gewalt charakterisiert, etwas das Erich Fromm "bösartige Aggression" nannte. Es ist grundsätzlich anders als die Art von Aggression, die man in der Natur sieht: Überleben, Beschaffung
von Nahrung oder sexueller Wettbewerb. […] Diese bösartige Aggression bedeutet nach Fromms Verständnis auch
eine Art unstillbare Gier, die Tendenz, immer mehr haben zu wollen, mehr Macht, mehr Geld, mehr Besitz, mehr
Territorium. Das ist charakteristisch für die menschliche Geschichte.

Darwins Evolutionstheorie – ein Schocker

Als Darwin seine Theorie der Evolution durch natürliche Auslese 1859 zum ersten Mal veröffentlichte, war das, was viele Fachleute am meisten störte, weder die Vorstellung der Artveränderung noch die mögliche Abstammung des Menschen vom Affen. Das auf die Evolution, auch auf die Evolution des Menschen hindeutende Beweismaterial hatte sich durch Jahrzehnte hin angesammelt, und die Idee der Evolution war vorher schon vorgelegt und weit verbreitet worden. […] Das Hauptärgernis war eine Idee, die in weit höherem Maß von Darwin selbst stammte. Alle die wohlbekannten evo-
lutionären Theorien vor Darwin – von Lamarck, Chambers, Spencer und den deutschen Naturphilosophen – hatten
die Evolution als einen zielgerichteten Vorgang angesehen. […] Für viele Menschen war die Verabschiedung dieser
teleologischen Form der Evolution das bedeutungsvollste und am wenigsten Angenehme an Darwins Anregungen.
Sein Buch The Origin of Species erkannte weder einen Gott noch ein von der Natur gestecktes Ziel an. Dafür war die natürliche Auslese [… ein Prozess], der sich zwar stetig von primitiven Anfängen fort, aber nicht auf ein Ziel
hin bewegte. Thomas Kuhn (1922-1996) US-amerikanischer Wissenschaftstheoretiker, Wissenschaftshistoriker, Die Struktur wissenschaftlicher Revolutionen, International Encyclopedia of Unified Science, 1962, 4. Auflage 2012, S. 183-184, Frankfurt,

Epigenetics and evolution

Inspired by Jahnel's meeting with Michael Skinner, Ph.D., US American professor, School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University

I always thought we evolve upwards, that evolution is something upwards that takes generations, if not eons. […] Epigenetics tells us that evolution can happen within three generations. Evolution is not upwards but in direct relation to our environment. […] We humans who are the most profound changers of the environment on this planet are not just changing environment, we are changing us. As we change the environment we force our own evolution in a certain direction. [...] We impact on the epigenetic level of every species on the planet.

New study confirms a comet impact triggered massive wildfires and a temporary cooling 12,800 years ago.

Scientific research result

According to modern theories of geological evolution, the last major ice age (known as the Pliocene-Quaternary glaciation) began about 2.58 million years ago during the late Pliocene Epoch. Since then, the world has experienced several glacial and interglacial periods, and has been in an interglacial period (where the ice sheets have been retreating) ever since the last glacial period ended about 10,000 years ago.
According to new research, this trend experienced a bit of a hiccup during the late Paleolithic era. It was at this time – roughly 12,800 years ago, according to a new study from the University of Kansas – that a comet struck our planet and triggered massive wildfires. This impact also triggered a short glacial period that temporarily reversed the previous period of warming, which had a drastic affect on wildlife and human development. […]
Roughly 12,800 years ago, a global disaster was triggered when a stream of fragments from a comet measuring about 100 km (62 mi) in diameter exploded in Earth’s atmosphere and rained down on the surface. […]
This impact could have been responsible for the so-called Younger Dryas cool episode. This period occurred roughly 12,000 years ago, where gradual climatic warming was temporarily reversed.

Newtonian and Darwian false beliefs

Four fundamental beliefs that have shaped the culture in what we call the civilization of scientific materialism, four fundamental beliefs that have shaped this culture are found to be flawed or outright wrong and as a result civilization
is expressing a lack of power by adhering to incorrect stories.
I refer to these four basic principles that are flawed as the four myth perceptions of the apocalypse. When we use the term "myth" what we mean is actually a belief that we bought to be true whether it's true or not we own it as truth and as a result we create a world based on that myth.
This is a list of the four myth perceptions that has misdirected civilization:
Myth number 1 is the belief in Newtonian universe which is a separation of matter from energy and then emphasizing matter is primary.
Myth number 2 is the belief that genes control our biology which is a belief that makes us victims of the heredity of the genes that we've received from our parents.
Myth number 3 and Myth number four are predicated on the Darwinian theory of evolution.
Myth number 3 being the fact that evolution is driven by random mutations, accidents, and as a result is there any purpose for our being on this planet? No.
Myth number 4 is another extension of Darwinian theory that says evolution is driven by a competition for fitness and the struggle for life which then means that we are now competing with each other to survive rather than recognizing unity and wholeness.

Insights

We did not evolve up from matter; instead we devolved, or came down, from the realm of pure consciousness, spirit. Michael A. Cremo (*1948) US American Hindu creationist, archeologist, author, Human Devolution. A Vedic Alternative to Darwin's Theory, Torchlight Publishing, 1. January 2003

Karma specifically means mental, verbal and physical actions that lead to life-affecting and life-constituting consequences. The modern materialistic worldview considers the structures of our present lifetimes to have been caused by the genetic reembodiment of the subtly encoded experiences of millions of previous representatives of our species, through the process of biological evolution.The Buddhist worldview considers the structures of our present lifetimes to be caused by the spiritually genetic reembodiment of our experiences from millions of previous lifetimes, subtly encoded in a spiritual gene we bring with us, combined with the physical genes we receive from our parents,
in a complex process of spiritual and biological evolution.

The coming of a spiritual age must be preceded by the appearance of an increasing number of individuals who are no longer satisfied with the normal intellectual, vital and physical existence of man, but perceive that a greater evolution is the real goal of humanity and attempt to effect it in themselves, to lead others to it, and to make it the recognized goal of the human race. In proportion as they succeed and to the degree to which they carry this evolution, the yet unrealized potentiality which they represent will become an actual possibility of the future.

Darwinism is not synonymous with evolution. Darwin's [continuous] theory [on 1000s and 1000s of gene mutations] does not explain all the data concerning evolution. [...] Darwin's theory cannot even begin to give an understanding on how an eye (organ) can develop. [...] There don't have to be actual mutations. In fact quantum physics insists that
all mutations are [...] quantum possibilities for consciousness to choose from. Only when consciousness is ready to choose, when there is a whole Gestalt of consciousness giving us the organ then only the organ becomes manifest.

Self organization develops without predetermination. There is free will, a chance to choose. But the self organization is structured and shaped by the four scales or dimensions.
Self organization can be understood as the capacity to create information based on the Mandelbrot vector 0 : z z¾ + c considered as a continuous creative process. The key is spontaneous improvisation in the moment – acting in the Tao – returning to Zero. This whole field has been thoroughly explored for millennia by Chinese thinkers […].
The underlying principle of self organization, the factor creating a larger identity, is called CHI in Chinese philosophy (KI in Japanese). (Strangely enough, this Chinese word is the same as the Greek word for the Pythagorean symbol.) CHI appears in two aspects, WU CHI, emptiness, symbolized by the empty circle, and TAI CHI, plenitude, symbolized by the ancient Chinese fractal.

Newton and Descartes offered the first scientific mechanical creation story.

British scholar and chief political economy and demography Thomas Malthus (1766-1834) coined the idea 'We are doomed to an endless struggle in scarcity', a rationale for the East India Company to steal from the world.
The original theory of evolution goes back to Darwin's grandfather. Darwin who had adopted the Malthusian model of scarcity had observed competition and cooperation in nature. In his evolutionary theory he had to subvert the cooperation part as it didn't fit the scarcity theory.

The universal struggle for life must be thoroughly ingrained in the mind or the whole economy of nature with every fact in it will be dimly seen or misunderstood. It is the doctrine of Malthus applied with manifold force to the whole animal and vegetable kingdom.

Paradigm-shifting work:

Microbiologist Carl Woese and physicist Nigel Goldenfeld at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign suggest that the evolutionary history may owe its development to the more creative dynamics of self-organizing systems.

Just suppose that Darwin's ideas were only a part of the story of evolution. Suppose that a process he never wrote about, and never even imagined, has been controlling the evolution of life throughout most of the Earth's history. It may sound preposterous, but this is exactly what microbiologist Carl Woese and physicist Nigel Goldenfeld, both at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, believe. Darwin's explanation of evolution, they argue, even
in its sophisticated modern form, applies only to a recent phase of life on Earth.

Evolution in the universes

Many different reality frames or dimensions containing sentinent (conscious) entities exist and are interacting according to their own rule sets.
(I know because I have been there (via OBE as taught by Robert Monroe) and seen how it works. It is logical and the results fit the data.)
All entities in our larger reality system have the purpose of lowering their entropy by growing up, by becoming more spiritual, by becoming love – i.e. by eliminating fear and ego.
They still have the same job [growing up] than we do. The system exists. It has to lower its entropy. That's how it evolves. There are only three states you can be in. You can be evolving, you can be static [standing still], or you can be de-evolving [dying]. […] You're either evolving or dying, because being in the middle is unstable. [...] Change hap-
pens. Everything changes. You're either evolving or you're dying.

Why does a consciousness system evolve? The second choice dying is a bad choice. So it evolves.
How does it evolve? By lowering its entropy. It evolves by creating a lot of smaller units of consciousness that inter-
act with their free will so that they can lower their entropy. Without free will you can't lower your entropy, because you cannot learn anything. It's all just a script you're following.

Tricked by perception to keep the species alive

Evolution is a mathematically precise theory. We can use the equations of evolu-
tion to check this out. We can have various organisms in artificial worlds compete and see which survive and which thrive, which sensory systems are more fit.
A key notion in those equations is fitness. […] Fitness is not the same thing as reality as it is, and it's fitness, and not reality as it is, that figures centrally in the equations of evolution. […]
Perceptions of reality goes extinct. In almost every simulation, organisms that see none of reality but are just tuned to fitness drive to extinction all the organisms that perceive reality as it is. So the bottom line is, evolution does not fa-
vor veridical, or accurate perceptions. Those perceptions of reality go extinct. […]
What the equations of evolution are telling us is that all organisms, including us, are in the same boat as the jewel beetle. We do not see reality as it is. We're shaped with tricks and hacks that keep us alive. […]
Evolution has shaped us with perceptual symbols that are designed to keep us alive. We'd better take them seriously.
If you see a snake, don't pick it up. If you see a cliff, don't jump off. They're designed to keep us safe, and we should take them seriously. That does not mean that we should take them literally. That's a logical error. […]
The theory of evolution presents us with the ultimate dare: Dare to recognize that perception is not about seeing truth, it's about having kids. Video presentation by Donald D. Hoffman, Ph.D. (*1955) US American cognitive psychologist, University

Four myths about evolution and purpose
Myth # 1: To say that there's in some sense a "higher purpose" means there are "spooky forces" at work.
Myth # 2: To say that evolution has a purpose is to say that it is driven by something other than natural selection.
Myth # 3: Evolution couldn't have a purpose, because it doesn't have a direction.
Myth # 4: If evolution has a purpose, the purpose must have been imbued by an intelligent being.

clinical psychologist, stress expert, spiritual teacher, author, Facebook comment, 23. August 2015

The most fascinating thing for me is how so much of what we take for granted becomes questionable as a result of
the breakdown we're seeing. When we begin questioning the exponential growth model then we begin questioning
the value system driving our material production/consumption. It's not that it hasn't produced amazing knowledge of
our environment and our place in the universe. It's not that there haven't been a huge amount of amazing technolo-
gical developments [...]. It's not that everything about this paradigm is bad. It's just that it has very clearly outlasted
its usefulness and is now fundamentally responsible for escalating the biophysical rupture that we see happening
and manifesting in so many different ways. What that tells me is that we have to grow up as a species. It's an evo-
lutionary moment.

Evolution may have less to do with rising above one's peers than learning to get along with more of them. The most direct benefit of more neurons and connections in our brains is an increase in the size of the social networks we can form.

Quotes by Charles Darwin

It must not be forgotten that although a high standard of morality gives but a slight or no advantage to each individual man and his children over the other men of the same tribe, yet that an increase in the number of well-endowed men and an advancement in the standard of morality will certainly give an immense advantage to one tribe over another. A tribe including many members who, from possessing in a high degree the spirit of patriotism, fidelity, obedi-
ence, courage, and sympathy, were always ready to aid one an-
other, and to sacrifice themselves for the common good, would be victorious over most other tribes; and this would be natural selec-
tion. At all times throughout the world tribes have supplanted other tribes; and as morality is one important element in their success, the number of well-endowed men will thus everywhere tend
to rise and increase. Charles Darwin (1809-1882) English naturalist, author of the biological theory of evolution, author, The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex, S. 89, 1871

Important as the struggle for existence has been and even still is, yet as far as the highest part of our nature is concerned there are other agencies more important. For the moral qualities are ad-
vanced either directly or indirectly much more through the efforts of habit, by our reasoning powers, by instruction, by religion, etc., than through natural selection. Charles Darwin (1809-1882) English naturalist, author of the biological
theory of evolution, author, The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex, next to last page, 1871

Cooperation superseding competition:

Men are a profoundly social and caring species.

Altruism research:

"This new science of altruism and the physiological underpinnings of compassion is finally catching up with Darwin’s observations nearly 130 years ago, that sympathy is [humanity's] strongest instinct." Dacher Keltner, Ph.D., US American professor of psychology, University of California, Berkeley, director of the Greater Good Science Center, author, cited in: article 'Survival of the Kindest' – Sympathy is Strongest Human Instinct, presented by the publication impactlab.com, 9. December 2009

For firstly, the social instincts lead an animal to take pleasure in the society of his fellows, to feel a certain amount of sympathy with them, and to perform va-
rious services for them. […] Such actions as the above appear to be the simple result of the greater strength of the social or maternal instincts than that of any other instinct or motive; for they are performed too instantaneously for reflection, or for pleasure or even misery might be felt. In a timid man, on the other hand, the instinct of self-preser-
vation might be so strong, that he would be unable to force himself to run any such risk, perhaps not even for his own child. Charles Darwin (1809-1882) English naturalist, author of the biological theory of evolution, author,The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex, 1871

Survival of the kindest – Darwin's long overlooked insight

Sympathy is the strongest human instinct, sometimes stronger than self-interest.

[T]hose communities, which included the greatest number of the most sympathetic [compassionate] members, would flourish best, and rear the greatest number of offspring.
Charles Darwin (1809-1882) English naturalist, author of the biological theory of evolution, The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex, S. 72, 1871

The more enduring social instincts conquer the less persistent instincts.

Quotes by David Hawkins

⚠ Caveat See Power vs. Truth, January 2013

(↓)

Hitting bottom – an evolutionary tool

Everyone has chosen his own level of consciousness, yet nobody could have done otherwise at any given point in time. We can only get "there" from "here." Every leap has to have a platform to originate from. Pain exists to promote evolution; its cumulative effect finally forces us in a new direction, although the mechanism may be very slow. How many times is it necessary to hit bottom before a lesson is learned? Perhaps thousands, which may account for the sheer quantity of human suffering, so vast as to be incomprehensible. Slowly, by inches, does civilization advance.
Dr. David R. Hawkins, Power vs. Force. The Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior, S. 127, Hay House, February 2002

Spiritual evolution is almost like a space ship taking off from Earth’s gravity; it is difficult at first but it finally leaves the gravitational field. Energy consuming intentionality eventually dissolves into effortless surrender and one becomes the recipient of unfolding awareness. Revelation replaces discovery. Understanding presents itself and becomes self-revealing by grace without effort. Dr. David R. Hawkins, The Eye of the I From Which Nothing is Hidden, chapter 8 "Beyond Causality. The Will: Understanding And Comprehension", S. 126, revised edition 2002

A significant observation is that the exact locus of the process of evolution, including form and function, is specifically within the field of consciousness itself, where the anlage of form is a pattern potentiality that was termed a Morpho-
genetic field by Rupert Sheldrake. (Calibrates as true.)
Dr. David R. Hawkins, Truth vs. Falsehood. How to Tell the Difference, chapter 5 "The Evolution of Consciousness", S. 30, 2005

Life itself is the ultimate context and power whereby evolution unfolds "unfairly", for like a cork in the sea, excellence automatically rises to the top. […] The smartest octopus gets to be the biggest, and the fastest runner wins the
race. Political ranting about the real laws of life is emotional, childish and hardly constitutes justification for attempts
to overthrow reality (which is immune anyway).
Dr. David R. Hawkins, Truth vs. Falsehood. How to Tell the Difference, chapter 12 "Problematic Issues", S. 216, 2005

(↓)

Evolution: intention plus attention

The progression of the evolution of consciousness is accelerated by the combination of intention plus attention. In worldly terms, the process is explicable as the Heisenberg principle, whereby the potentiality is activated to actuality by the introduction of consciousness and intention. This explanation applies to the mechanics of the phe-
nomenon and is termed the ‘collapse of the wave function,’ the consequence of which then appears as emergence.
While the scientific model is very interesting, informative, and confirmative of the effect of consciousness, it does
not take into account the relative power of the observer’s level of consciousness or intention. Scientific objecti-
vity calibrates in the 400s, whereas spiritual intention is far more powerful and calibrates from 500 on up.
Dr. David R. Hawkins, Transcending Levels of Consciousness. The Stairway to Enlightenment, Section V "Spiritual Transformation",
S. 309 [311], 2006

Spiritual evolution is a process of unfoldment, emergence, and purification as a consequence of what one has become […]
Temptations occur along the pathway and […] the various levels. […]

LoC	Level	Temptation
200	Courage	Bravado, machismo
250	Neutrality	Indifference, withdrawal
310	Willingness	Overcommitment, overinvolvement
350	Acceptance	Failure to take appropriate action
400	Reason	Stuck in cause and effect, intellectualism
500	Love	Seduction, exploitation, misidentified as personal
540	Joy/Ecstasy	Poor judgement

Dr. David R. Hawkins, Transcending the Levels of Consciousness. The Stairway to Enlightenment, S. 314-315, 2006

It is of little benefit to be personally self-critical or think that one 'should' be farther along the road than they are. Spiritual evolution is irregular and at times often seems sporadic and at other times stationary. Realize that
guilt is a narcissistic indulgence. There may be long, dry periods where seemingly nothing is progressing. This is a deception; a 'long, dry period' is what is happening as though it were a test of resolve. These periods can be tra-
versed by transcending the spiritual ego's wish to seek gain via 'progress.' Frustration itself is therefore a sign
of trying to control that which is not really controllable.
Dr. David R. Hawkins, Reality, Spirituality and Modern Man, chapter 19 "Practicum", S. 351-352, 2008

It's pleasing to discover that it isn’t necessary to drive oneself forward; instead, one can simply allow oneself to move forward as blocks are removed. Thus, one becomes attracted by the future rather than propelled by the past. Dr. David R. Hawkins, Along the Path to Enlightenment. 365 Reflections from David R. Hawkins, edited by Scott Jeffrey, Hay House, January 2011

Anytime there's a shift of consciousness from one level to another, there's a disruption. Interview with David R. Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D., presented by the US American magazine Holistic Networker, Gina Mazza Hillier, 17. June 2009

What we are witnessing is creation unfolding. Evolution is creation unfolding. What we view as mistakes,

Rediscovery of Charles Darwin's distorted evolutionary theory

The US American social psychologist and evolutionary systems scientist David Loye, Ph.D. (1925-2022) authored Darwin's Lost Theory.
Who We Really Are and Where We're Going, Benjamin Franklin Press, 1. September 2007.

In a scrutinous manner Loye has researched four major works of Charles Darwin:

Origen of the Species
Descent of Man
The Emotional Life
Notebooks (unpublished for 136 years)

Via the Word search function Loye did a simple screening of several terms of 475 fine print pages
in the e-version of Descent of Man, published in 1871. He discovered following highlights:

༺༻	Key word/s	Number of citations	Mentioned in official book index
1.	Mind / brain	200 times
2.	Love	95 times Still preserved in newest version	Once
3.	Moral sensitivity	92 times	6 times
4.	Mutuality or Mutual aid i.e. Cooperation	27 times
5.	Competition	12 times
6.	Selfishness	12 times
7.	*Survival of the fittest* Over exposed and ill applied	Twice

Darwin: Selfishness is a base principle, which accounts for the low morality of savages.

Loye concludes:

Darwin's evolutionary postulate:
The prime motivator for human evolution is neither competition, nor natural
selection, nor "survival of the fittest," as popularized but the human capacity
for moral sense, ethical sensitivity, and education.
Darwin was pre-anticipating Abraham Maslow's humanistic psychology.
Darwin gave scientific grounding for Jesus' teaching and for modern brain research.
Darwin puts the evolutionary emphasis on sex and the flowering of love.
Prior to Sigmund Freud Darwin listed following evolutionary drives (see his Notebooks writings at age 28):

༺༻	Instinct	Human unit	Remark
1.	Sexual instincts	Myotic sex	Two different sex organs in two beings – 1st billion years ago
2.	Parental instinct	Family unit
3.	Social instinct	Group / community unit	Development of reason and emotion
In modern times brain scientists Paul D. MacLean (1913-2007) and Karl Pribram (1919-2015) as well as cell biologist Lynn Margulis, Ph.D. (1938-2011) have arrived at the same findings.

Loye commenting the ongoing Darwin wars since the break of the new millenium:

Darwin was in favor of "progressive religion" and hated "regressive religion".
The arrogance of "science" and the stupidity of "regressive religion" are a hindrance to evolution.
Neodarwinists stand both for "wrong" religion and "wrong" science.
Sociobiologists Richard Dawkins, Daniel Bennett and Stephen Jay Gould did not carefully study
what Darwin really wrote.

Richard] Dawkins has totally misled us, apart from being uselessly infuriatingly insulting to those he disagrees with. Paul Ekman, Ph.D. paulekman.com (*1934) US American professor of psychology, anthropologist, pioneer in the study of emotions

In a wide range of studies, social scientists are amassing a growing body of evidence to show we are evolving to become more compassionate and collaborative in our quest to survive and thrive. In contrast with "every man for himself" inter-
pretations of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, Dacher Keltner³, and his fellow social scientists
are building the case that humans are successful as a species precisely because of our nurturing, altruistic and com-
passionate traits. Article Social scientists build case for 'survival of the kindest', presented by the US American news website for topical science articles Science Daily and Media Relations University of California, Yasmin Anwar, 9. December 2009

In the Descent of Man Charles Darwin wrote only twice of "survival of the fittest" – but 95 times about love! 92 times
about moral sensitivity. And 200 times about brain and mind. Suppression over 100 years of the real Darwin has led
to the social, political, economic, scientific, educational, moral and spiritual mess we are in today.

What’s now at stake in the battle for 21st century mind [...] On one hand are gathered those of us who, out of 100,000 years of yearning, generation after generation have worked to advance evolution – that is, to build the better world

On the other hand are those of us who – blind captives of an antihuman paradigm and a counter-revolution of lower expectation – automatically, and tragically, have worked to check us in place or drive us backward.

Two versions of Darwin's Evolutionary Theory – David Loye

Two interpretations of Charles Darwin's Evolutionary Theory

Reduced Darwinism (1859)	⇔	Rediscovered Darwinism (2007)⁴
Competitive domination mode	⇔	Cooperative partnership mode

Darwin's theory of evolution outlined that the driving power of evolution is
NOT competition but moral sense, ethical sensitivity, and education.
This recognition remained hidden for nearly 150 years.

Domain	Low ground	High ground – Narrow gate
Social Theory	Reduced Darwinism (1859) "Survival of the fittest" Selfish genes syndrome	Rediscovered Darwinism (2007) Loving Evolutionary Theory Rising of the wisest Mutual caring
Behavioral mode	Domination system COMPETITION	Partnership model COOPERATION
Drive	Motivation	Inspiration
Age	Puberty Adolescent self-interest	Maturity Mature Mutuality
Social Life	Subhuman, inhuman, and inhumane evolution	Evolved human evolution
Politics	Adaptation and accommodation	Assertion and aspiration
Economics	Selfishness and greed as the key to wealth for the privileged including a noble trickle down to the many	Caring and sharing to spread the wealth of Earth to the many
Science	Reductionist theory and story oriented to the very deep past	Expansionist theory and story oriented to today and the future
Ethics	Survival of the fittest and Selfishness über alles as the driver for human evolution	Love and moral sensitivity as the driver of human evolution
Spirituality	Ferocious God of my people versus your people a God that must be obeyed	Merciful God of all people or Good Will from on high and below favoring an abundant life for all

Note: Darwinian paleontologist Stephen J. Gould (1941-2002) repeatedly noted that the mindset of fascism (nazisism)
correlates with the slogan of survival of the fittest, a pillar of Social Darwinism.

The most important decision we make is whether we believe we live in a friendly or a hostile universe.
Albert Einstein (1879-1955) German-born US American theoretical physicist, developer of the theory of general relativity

Important as the struggle for existence has been and even still is, yet as far as the highest part of man's is concerned there are other agencies more important. For the moral qualities are advanced either directly or indirectly, much more through the efforts of habit, the reasoning powers, instruction, religion, etc. than through natural selection; though to this latter agency may be safely attributed the
social instincts, which afforded the basis for the development of the moral sense.
Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man, chapter 21 "General Summary and Conclusion", 1871

At present the most usual argument for the existence of an intelligent God is drawn from deep inward conviction and feelings which
are experienced by most persons. [...]
Formerly I was led by feelings such as those just referred to, (although I do not think that the religious sentiment was ever strongly developed in me), to the firm conviction of the existence of God, and of the immortality of the soul. [...] This argument would be a
valid one, if all men of all races had the same inward conviction of the existence of one God; but we know this is
very far from being the case. Therefore I cannot see that such inward convictions and feelings are of any weight as evidence of
what really exists.
Charles Darwin, Autobiography
- Even though he was an agnostic, Darwin spoke of "an ennobling belief in God" as an important criterion in evolution.

Analogous animal and human evolution – Bruce Lipton

Spiking the evolutionary lineage

Evolution repeats itself in self-similar fractal patterns.
Humanity is analogous to an animal or an organism. Each human acts like a cell within this organism.

Stage	Animal evolution	Element	Evolutionary stadium Human reflection	Human evolution	Legend	Age
1.	Fish	Water•cold	Vertebrate level	Fishing	Living near, on and off the water	Maricultural
2.	Amphibians	Earth•cold	Gilled stadium	Farming	Irrigation, watering the land	Agricultural
3.	Reptiles	Earth•cold	Big body mass, small brain, mechanical "killing machines" in an extremely stable environment	Mechanization	Huge mechanized corporations	Industrial
4.	Birds	Air•cold	Wilbur and Orville Wright (1903) Landing on the moon (1969) Earth images (context, overview) ⇒ Change of perspective	Aviation	Instant communication Internet	Communication

5.	Mammals	Fire•warm	Greens, environmentalists, cultural creatives	Nurturing and appreciation of life	The meek shall inherit the earth. Caring dignitarian economics	Community

Ten turning points in cosmic evolution made human life possible

Human evolution – resulting from cosmic hazards

The New Scientist found 10 "turning points" during the cosmic evolution that secure human existence.

	Time line	Emerging·event	Legend
༺༻	At any time⁸	Certainty of chance [emergence]	Tiny changes at the beginning make big differences in the end. That's why human existence is perilously perched on a great pyramid of trivia.
1.	13.75·billion·years·ago	Avoiding the void	Human life wouldn't exist if Earth's cosmic neighborhood had been just a bit less dense than average during the tumultuous moments after the supposed big bang.⁹
2.	13.75 billion years ago	Tipping the antimatter balance	The cosmos is not a sea of bland radiation. The triumph of matter suggests that the laws of physics are biased.
3.	4.6 billion years ago	Sparking up planet Earth	What does it take to make a solar system? Hydrogen, helium, interstellar dust – and a spark to set it on fire.
4.	4.5 billion years ago	Mars attacks	Without the colossal interplanetary collision human evolution might have turned out very differently.
5.	3.9 billion years ago	Blasting the Earth into life	The solar system's "late heavy bombardment" blasted planet Earth. It might also have delivered a water supply, and created nurseries for life.
6.	2 billion years ago	One giant leap for a single cell	A freak event created the ancestor of all multicellular life on Earth. Without this unconventional genesis, potential humans might never have become more than bacteria.
7.	635 million years ago	The age of heroic lichen	Early life had to ride an oxygen roller coaster – until humble symbioses of algae and fungus put an end to boom and bust.
8.	65 million years ago	Killer·asteroid·with·a·silver·lining	A 10-kilometer-wide rock ended the era of dinosaurs, and opened a window of opportunity for little animals called mammals.
9.	6 million years ago	Brains or brawn?	When the going got tough in prehistoric East Africa, some of humanity's closest relatives went for bigger jaws, rather than bigger brains. Big mistake.
10.	70,000 years ago	Inventing·language,·the·easy·way	Fresh pastures meant a cosier life for early humans – they granted to learn to speak.

Die einzigartige Fähigkeit zu prosozialem Verhalten und Kooperation bei Menschen beruht auf einen kulturellen Verstärkungsmechanismus. Menschen durchliefen eine Art Selbstzähmungsprozess, bei dem habgierige oder aggressive Individuen aus den Gruppen, die ihr Überleben
auf der Kooperationsbereitschaft gründeten, eliminiert wurden.

Content: Between 1860 and 1880 scientists debated whether 'spontaneous generation’ was possible or not. Louis Pasteur, the father of microbiology, had repeatable results of spontaneous generation appearing under sterile laboratory conditions. However, he suppressed his
own research in favor of the current Darwinian evolutionary model. On his death bed he confirmed: "Claude Bernard was right. ...

12. February 2018

Darwin's higher-order understanding of sex, the fundamental drive of love and the global bond of community remained long-ignored. Darwin
capped his theory with the drive of the moral sense as primary in evolution. Darwin had a case for spirituality and the positive teachings of
religion in evolution. Writing about "the morality of women," Darwin became a cautious forerunner of male support for the women's movement.

Review by Frank Visser (*1958) Dutch psychologist of religion, former theosophist, Internet advertiser, author, Saving
the World Through Darwin 2.0. Review of David Loye's "Rediscovering Darwin", presented by the online publication integralworld.net, 5. February 2020

A Theory of Ontogeny, Harvard University Press, 25. January 2019

Tomasello postulates that collective consciousness is unique to humans. It has genetic roots and is not just a by-product of culture. He follows
the groundwork laid out by the Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky in the 1930s. Children are not the monsters of unsocialized Id seen by Sigmund Freud. Three-year-olds understand "we" in a way apes do not. They are responsive to group norms, rules, language, and culture. They share fairly, help each other censure a third party who is acting unfairly, or tell a third party that someone is in trouble. By seven, they are fully enculturated into their culture's morals and principles, playing complicated games, following complicated rules, and constructing complicated sentences.
Eight "pathways" to human uniqueness: 1. social cognition, 2. communication, 3. cultural learning, 4. cooperative thinking, 5. collaboration,
6. prosociality, 7. social norms, 8. moral identity.
