[H]:
The MoQ does not even define "man" as a creature with proprietary
consciousness. It is concerned with mankind in the collectivist sense -- as
a social species, as a product of biological and intellectual evolution.
The very faculties that make man unique among living organisms --
self-awareness, intellection, value sensibility, moral judgment, and
creativity -- are relegated to an obscure, unsubstantiated esthetic realm
that is self-sufficient in its own right and denies the individual of any
contribution or role in the universe. If evolution proceeds automatically
to "betterness", what purpose does man serve? He is a complex but captive
biological organism swept up in this cosmic movement without free choice or
any hope of transcending differentiated existence.

I can see you've gotten nowhere with the MoQ, Ham.
Cheers,
Laramie
