Owing to Wrongness
The Biosphere is what it is, what it can only be-- and we must accept its sacred primacy, its inviolability. It is Reality over and beyond what we may prefer. It is God-- leave it be. It is good and right and Man is wrong-- because of the god-like self-reflectiveness and physical and mental powers we have been given in our evolution in the biospheric matrix. Our wrongness is the cost we thus incur, that we must bear; a tax, then, we must pay as organisms gone way beyond the corrective natural selection that heretofore has prevailed that keeps species tightly interlinked to their environmental matrix. And so we owe for our evil, and must strive to be and to do good and right, a responsibility we have to the sacred wholeness of the Great Organism, biospheric God, to one with it as well as we can.
