Re: <nettime> Religious Sect Announces First Cloned Baby |
The following post was sent to the Genetic Programming list on 28/12/2002: >Date: Sat, 28 Dec 2002 06:51:43 -0000 >Subject: [GP] EUGENICS > >The following is from http://eugenics.home.att.net/ > >Humans are very much like our primate ancestors. Unfortunately, with >our larger intelligent brains, we have acquired the ability to >foresee our deaths as soon as we are able to understand life, at a >very young age. With this horror, we have instead of facing life >with knowledge that we have a brief time to live -- a time to be >made the most of -- we have turned back to our primitive instincts >and succumbed to religion, false beliefs, and submission to >dominance by others. > >The answer to this dilemma during most of this century, has been to >try and change human culture, assuming it is infinitely malleable, >leading to the agony of communism and the short comings of >egalitarian democracies. And in the rest of the world, despotism >reigns under numerous doctrines, with little hope for the people >subjected to the state's propaganda. This web page is dedicated to >putting forth the view that to change the human condition we must >change the innate nature of humans, that is, we must encourage the >breeding of people with a higher intellect, people better able to >understand what motivates them and who can eventually revolt against >the subjugation by the state or the controlling elite. > >It is my contention that this can be done by focusing on innate >human traits we want to promote through a better understanding of >behavior genetics. But to promote eugenics as a secular religion, it >becomes necessary to begin with a political agenda to bring it >about. Much of what I advocate, in keeping with the understanding >that evolution occurs at the genetic, individual and group levels, >has to do with advancing both individual eugenics and group >eugenics. That is, it appears that eugenics can only be advanced in >a world where nations are free to advance their own interests >without interference. > >Anyone who is familiar with the United Nations, NATO, the European >Economic Union, and the New World Order knows that we are on the >brink of giving up national sovereignty for a world totalitarianism, >where a central committee will dictate to the masses how to think >and behave. We see this happening now in Afghanistan, where the >United States has decided that it can attack any nation that harbors >terrorists, of course forgetting that terrorism is how states often >come into existance and/or change. One man's terrorist is another >man's freedom fighter. I advocate only two viable options for >eugenics: a return to nationalism, where competing nations will >experiment with various social and scientific agendas to raise their >peoples to higher levels of intelligence, followed by other traits >the population desires to promote; and/or, to increase group >solidarity and practice eugenics without borders. The second one has >been practiced by Jews for thousands of years, but it can be a >dangerous road to follow for it invariably leads to group conflict >in the nations where Jews dominate. Much of my writing has to do >therefore not with the technology of eugenics but with human nature >and how we react as competing groups. > >Some have asked why I do not consider libertarianism in my scope of >possible means for raising humans to higher levels. I do not >discount it outright, especially since I personally have a very >strong libertarian affinity. However, it appears that >libertarianism is not attractive to most people except a few >intellectuals, and I therefore prefer to focus on political systems >that I feel have a potential for success. I hope libertarianism all >the best, but I just do not see it as intricately bound to human >nature as is the cohesiveness we find in national ethnic identity. > >Eugenics is here to stay, and the only question now is how severely >will political forces try to stamp it out and what group or nation >will be the victor in the end. But a more highly evolved human will >be the result and this process will continue unabated into the >future. Nietzsche's supermen are right around the corner waiting for >their creator to begin the task. We are their creator, they are our >children. > >Finally, you may ask why so many of my articles are intertwined with >the Jewish approach to eugenics and why I use them over and over >again to make numerous points about human behavior AND about the >need for nationalism. First, Jews are one of the few identifiable >groups (actually, the the Ashkenazi Jews specifically) who have >practiced eugenics with tenacious success that has raised their >intelligence to a remarkably high level, along with increasing group >cohesiveness leading to extreme ethnocentrism or xenophobia. >Several issues arise from this achievement.

That is, the >Jewish contribution may not have been very great or even negative, >as their accumulation of far greater wealth than any other ethnic >group has to do with their abilities in manipulation of other people >through the power of words rather than through constructing or >building industry. Skilled craftsmen and technicians are as >important as lawyers, politicians, academics or journalists; but the >rewards have gone to the elite who have the power of the word over >the skill of the craftsmen. > >Second, Jews have been at the forefront of promoting >multiculturalism, diversity, globalism, etc., while trying to block >nationalism, while at the same time embracing Zionism. This faction >of Jews, leftover from the days of Communism have maintained their >presence in academics, the media and politics and are the primary >stumbling block to other ethnic groups trying to form their own >cohesive nationhood based on their genetic similarity, just like the >Jews have done in Israel. My objection to Jewish influence in >America therefore is strictly political and aimed at the Jewish >left, not the empirical Jewish right, and their are many of them who >reject multiculturalism and genetic assimilation of incompatible >peoples. These Jews I embrace, the few that there are on the side >of eugenics and human advancement. > >And from the East, I also see an emerging nationalism. It may be >that the eugenic program I envision will take place in countries >like Japan, Korea, China, Singapore, India, etc. They may be able >to overcome the individualism and lack of solidarity found in the >Christian West. Christianity may only be the expression of a people >who are creative and intelligent, but lack Nietzsche's concept >of "the will to power" necessary to turn against destructive >sentimentality found in the West.
