Your buddy Jordan Peterson gets this. That's why he posits the relevance of the lobster dominance hierarchy to human social organization. How can you understand politics without comprehending our animal nature?

But, Genesis 2:7 is relevant too. It's a metaphoric expression of the paradox of human experience. The self is at once symbolic and embodied.

Your massive denial of this--your own psychological situation-- seems to be the basis for your holier-than-thou-attitude towards most of your species. No wonder you defend it so vociferously.

I'm confused? You're all over the map. My buddy Peterson? I'm in denial?

Genesis 2:7 is not metaphorical. Genesis 2:7 is an historical record. Genesis 2:7 separates man from all of creation. Genesis 2:7 is what you and Darwin and evolutionary science completely missed.
