Religion, explained:
(evolution as religion)
.
It’s not the afterlife, it’s the next life, the next generation
.
it’s not your soul, it’s your genes you need to be protecting, and not the way the warriors think, the way you would protect your soul is the way you protect your genes, by getting right with the world.
.
This is what the prophets have been trying to tell you, when you abuse, you harm your GENES and so we are punished in the next life, meaning the next generation.
.
“Soul,” in this sense, is a better definition for genes than the popular version. This is life as religion here, in theory, how things may have been understood in the deeper past, before we became the warriors and lost the sense of things.

Next May 13-15, 2026, Prof. Aminah Hasan-Birdwell and I will be hosting a workshop on Slavery and Abolition in 18th-Century Philosophy at Emory U. in Atlanta, Georgia. https://forms.gle/wTC7DqNgHQE3dpT58 We expect to have about 15-20 participants, and we are seeking funding for travel support for participants who need it. There will be a remote option for those who need it as well (the US being what it is). Please share this with colleagues who may be interested! #Philosophy
