HAND, MOUTH, CROTCH -- KILL, THAT YOU MAY EAT -- THE EROTIC TRICK

*****************************************************************************************************

HAND, MOUTH, PROGENY

Our life comes from death by killing other life, eating what we kill, and reproduction by heterosexual copulation.
This seexual reproduction cannot be achieved with natural means, unless it is stimulated by the erotic emticement of sexual pleasure culminating in the orgasmic and self extinguishing blind pleasure of physical unmitigated conjunction.

We may euphemize: assertion,

survival and reproduction.

The three are one sequel.

As far as we understand about humans, mammals and other animals, "from seed or birth", life starts with an instinctive groping for something to enjoy, grab and eat.

St. Augustine (354-430 a. d.), in his "Confessions", and many others, considered little children sinful for their ruthless cravings...

Does little else but that craving matter at life’s beginning and later?

I remember holding Dominic, a friend's naked 9-hour-old babyson, lying back naked on my two hands.
I felt honored with the privilege of being so close to the very beginning of just-out-of-the- womb life...
The baby was in a eery silence with wide open eyes, seeking with his llittle arms and half open fists in a slow forward and backward circular motion for something he waas tryig to touch...
like a combination of static swimming bwrween vanishing wonb walls...

I needed no further clues that he was still in the dreamy pale between joy and discomfort. truth and dream, light and darkness... where both good and evil are meaningless...
Was Dominic going to learn the pleasure from breast milk that started the life-long pleasure/pain cycles?.
He was starting a life of

alternating pleasures and needs for the rest of his life...

Life wil give him free will so thtat he can deserve success and failure...

At some point in some tender childhod age, the parents and educators can no longer keep up with the children's growing symbiotic requirements... and both yougsters and elders are derailed into the social distorsions most of us are afflicted by. .
.
We keep believing in our delusions by sophisticating our rationalizarions, and join the huge crowds of hopeless mediocrity...
Until a genius tries again, but ends up being suffocated (often executed) by the entropic decay...

And crotches keep re[rpducing to perpetuate the close cyrcles.

This cycle, however, bniological.
Morality, reason and all the other parameters needed for adaptation and development in the man-made society are brought to the child by the parents, family and social structure that starts with the family.
Where the family fails, society , government, nation and culture perish, as it happened to ancient Greece, when man and family where marfinalized in the second century B.C. We don't believe it is happening to us. Nor did the Greeks believe it was happening to them.

=====================

Meanwhile, billions of people behave as if the above described were not happening a all.
And we go on killing, eating and copulating...
Boring subject?

Suppose I say:
"We go on killing, eating and f...ing..."
There comes the inebriating occasion to wallow in an orgy of cheap and hollow offended virtue..., to escape a serious moral involvement.

Even if we know that our involvement against a nibstruous evil may destroy us... But we still prefer to deny reality...

We have lived in this horrendous moral hell for thousands of years...

since we discovered about 9,000 years ago that f...ing creates new human life......

we are only able of developing a logic that simultaneously conducts selfconscious confrontation with the natural kill-eat-copulate cycle of life, without qualifications; beyond right and wrong, yet bowing to it.

Again:
life is death of other life it kills, animal or vegetable.

The Commandment: "Thou shalt not kill" is our God’s word according to the Bible man wrote.

Killing is what we do every day: from cattle to plants.

And eating what we kill.

Those who don’t personally kill what they eat still nurture, eat and killed -or will be killed- flesh of harvested (dead) vegetables, raw or processed.

In the Catholic "Eucharist" (spiritual communion with God), the faithful eat the body of Jesus Christ (who was killed by man).

For millennia, men have killed and eaten their victims.

Often, they made their victims kings or gods before killing and/or eating them.

That is very similar to what many primitive people do as a social ritual; with or without a sense of guilt.

The guilt is absorbed in a taboo.

They kill and eat their victim (in human, food, or other form, including sacrificing their king at a time divined by their priests) in a ritual ceremony, on a real or imaginary altar.
That victim -as a life supporting death- is also their savior, and therefore worshipped as such.

In old legends from India, a big monster wants to kill and eat a smaller one.

The prospective victim asks Shiva ("the god whose dance is the universe") to save him.

The monster throws himself to Shiva’s mercy.
In their "world of realities", imploring for mercy is bound to obtain mercy.

Shiva tells the predatory monster "don’t eat him".

"But I am desperately hungry" answers the predator.

"Eat yourself" is Shiva’s answer.

The big monster obeys, eats his own body up… until only his face remains.

Shiva is so impressed by the self sacrifice, that he names him "Kirtimukha", or "Face of glory" and adds, "Whosoever does not honor you is rejected by me".

Is that rejection Hell? This question is irrelevant in the myth.

Mystery?

What is or is not mystery?

Yin/Yang (Chinese myth’s unceasing, symbiotic coexistence of evil and good, female and male, suffering and pleasure) is there even for those who never heard of it.

God made the whole world, then everything is good.

Thus, even bad is good.
Let’s say: acceptable, with our cultural hairsplitting.

Nonsense?

Why should reality make sense to us?
There is no obligation to do it, for reality and nature are completely indifferent to our life, death, opinions and wishes.

Human progress has only been technologic and has not influenced our primordial traits.

We remain not only with the realization that very little changed in term of fundamental life and instinctive values, but that we have always submerged some fundamental realities under a thick patina of self congratulation.

The commandment "Thou shalt not kill" is valid only if it means prohibition of killing human beings of our own family, tribe, kind and/or or clan.

As the community extended from the original nucleus to the constantly growing ones of region, nation, etc., the killing "taboo" extended to as far as mankind.

Only theoretically, of course. In our narrow arrogance, we think we measure up to an ideal if we only think about it.
We don't endeavor to rise up to earning it.

As this extends to any form of life, some Hindu sects consider even the life of the smallest insects sacred.

Therefore their holy man accurately sweeps the ground in front of him while walking, in order to avoid the unforgivable crime of stepping on forms of life too small for him to see.

We are also too small or insignificant for who cannot perceive us, physically, metaphysically, in temporal or other dimensions.

Vice versa is also true.

The primitive man could see, far better than we today, that life was a continuous process of killing, eating it and then yielding to the irresistible attraction of copulating with the complementary ("opposite") sex.

Centuries or millennia later (about 9,000 b. c.), he found out that copulating was the act that caused reproduction.

Like all other animals, primitive man considered killing as a normal fact of life, without qualifications of good or evil, like eating and copulating.

It was reason that complicated everything.

Eve’s apple, from the tree of knowledge, offered to Adam, was like the other myth of opening Pandora’s vase: it revealed and unleashed the unending conflicting diatribes of good and evil, right and wrong.

Right with reward; wrong with punishment: reason and rationalization, dialectics, philosophy, oratory, advocacy, argumentation and inescapable mazes of irresolvable conflicts.

Whether we want or don't want to resolve them.

The interpretation of our life as a process of killing/eating/copulation is of almost immediate acceptance for a primitive man and an unsettling surprise for a highly civilized man, stuck in the quicksand of politics, philosophy and religion.

KILL, THAT YOU MAY EAT

In our conception of mankind and culture, we are not accustomed to connecting our personal involvement with killing, and killing with nutrition.

Yet, there is no food intake which is not inextricably connected with the death of whatever form of animal or vegetable life before we eat.

We can only eat what was alive and then killed.

We cover the fact with complicated evasive logic.

The realistic image is kept alive in rituals and myths associated with the events started before the beginning of civilized history.

The most obvious connection between killing and nutrition for survival was the amazing number of human sacrifices to propitiate harvests.

They are so many that their detailed descriptions would fill volumes.
Yet they are recorded in dark backstages.

Apparently, the most worldwide consistent occurrences were human sacrifices or killing symbolism connected with agricultural harvests.

The easy connection with the gift of life coming from the victims of our hunt and/or harvest (both no less than killing the animal or vegetable life) easily unfolded into gratefully elevating our appreciation to worshipping as gods the victims we ate.

Sacrificing them in our worship represented a consecration of the killing and eating we could not do without and deification of our victims (janimal and

vegetable) who gave us the gift of survival with their own life...

The sacrifice of the Mass in the Christian ritual of Crucifixion (killing) and Communion (eating our victim) happens to be (consciously or subconsciously) a virtually perfect depiction of the great mystery of life by killing, eating and survival.

The initial symbolism in history and pre-history is clear, albeit often "rude".

The best known and scholarly records of those myths and legends, as well as historical facts, are described in Sir James George Frazer’s (1854-1941) monumental work "The Golden Bough", in 14 volumes.

The evidence from antiquity is that killing was elevated to the most sacred ceremonials which symbolized man’s aspirations, fears, hopes and worship.

Some shocking recorded examples at random:

=== The Pawnee Indians (orig. of Kansas and Nebraska) made annual human sacrifices when they sowed their fields. They tied the chosen man or woman to a cross, split his cranium with a tomahawk and finished him with arrows.

=== There is a record of a Sioux (Dakota?)"14 or 15 year old girl" captured by Pawnees and sacrificed "in April or May 1837 or 1838". "She was attached to a sort of gibbet and roasted for some time over a slow fire, then shot to death with arrows.

The chief sacrificer next tore out her heart and devoured it.

While her flesh was still warm, it was cut in small pieces from the bones, put in little baskets, and taken to a neighboring corn field."

=== Cannibalism was practiced not only by Sioux but also by several tribes in West Coast areas of North America.

=== "The Indians of Guanaquil, in Ecuador, used to sacrifice human blood and the hearts of men when they sowed their fields"

=== "The people of Caňar (now Cuenca in Ecuador) used to sacrifice a hundred children annually at harvest".

=== "At Lagos in Guinea (West Africa) it was the custom annually to impale a young girl alive soon after the spring equinox in order to secure good crops".

==="A West African queen used to sacrifice a man and a woman in the month of March". === "The Natives of Bontoc, in the interior of Luzon, one of the Philippine Islands, are passionate head hunters... every farm must get at least a human head at planting and one at sowing".

=== Many detailed and documented descriptions of horrible human sacrifices with mind-boggling tortures as repeated rituals by the Mayas, Aztecs and other aboriginal Americans are already well known=== Many sacrifices or

carnages are only indirectly connected -or only apparently not connected- with food, but they fit, like burning babies alive by throwing them into the flaming mouth of the gigantic statue of === the god Moloch in North Africa's Carthage, on the Mediterranean coast.

=== There is probably no corner of the entire world where such kinds of practices were unknown in primitive times.

=== Descriptions of the known instances in all continents would fill volumes.

=== With progress and self congratulation, the primordial phase of human evolution was submerged under idealized images projected in myths, legends, symbolism and religious hubris.

=== The killing and human sacrifices continued and then mutated into what sustains our self-esteem.

=== Many are convinced that wars between nations would disappear if the whole world were one nqtion.

Neverheless, it wpuld not stop the periocic massacres -large orr snall- if === killing is a natural impertive in the human species...

==================

THE EROTIC TRICK

Reproduction through copulation is the most distinguishing attribute of life.

=== Rocks don’t reproduce, let alone copulate.

They change or mutate throughout countless millennia, in the universal
=== entropic progress toward chaos.

=== They may even "reproduce" in some form we could not recognize as such.

Judging from its known cosmic occurrence,
===life is a lonely island of negative entropy; most likely an anomaly, according to our pussyfooting values.

=== Nature made copulating visually and instinctively irresistible especially for the human male.

From the available evidence, the visual irresistibility of the female genital organ ("vulva") exposed in her crotch is outside of human comprehension, and against any artistic or other idea of beauty.

Without that irresistible attraction outside of any accepted aesthetic concept, the female vulva would be as sloppy as, or no more attractive than, an open wound.

Nothing more flattering could be said also of the male sex organ.

Again: without the instinctive erotic (=sexually exciting) compulsion, no man or woman would consider that part of the female (or male) body coherent with any human interpretation of beauty.

=== Yet, it is difficult to find a healthy normal man who is not erotically raptured at the first sight of the naked crotch of an even minimally attractive woman (but he would not like to know that we think that of him...).

That is well known, but we avoid looking at that fact with rational realism, as if it were

=== Medusa’s face, which transforms into stone whoever looks at her.

=== An old Italian proverb says that "a female pubic hair pulls more than a hundred pairs of oxen".

From all historical evidence, that metaphor is not only symbolically valid, but it is roughly as credible now as 2,000 or 5,000 and more years ago.

Nature gave that irresistible erotic power to the female sex organ to make sure that reproduction could proceed unhampered or distracted by any human interpretation that would deform or in any way diminish it.

=== Life wants our reproduction, not our interpretation of it. In fact, even our intent to reproduce may interfere with its proper ritual.

Most likely, the first human beings -like any other animal- did not even know that copulating and coitus had anything to do with reproduction. They just copulated to enjoy it.

=== Anthropologic research opines that man first connected copulation with reproduction about 9000 B. C., presumably by noticing that his flocks of domesticated sheep or goats without any males did not reproduce.

So, humans had been reproducing for millions of years without knowing what impregnated the woman.

=== Still in the 1930s A. D., the Bellonese, of the Salomon Islands, thought that "children were sent by their social father's ancestral deities.

=== "In the 1960s, the Tully River Blacks of north Queensland believed that a woman became pregnant because she had been sitting over a fire on which she had roasted a fish given to her by the prospective father".

=== Another Australian tribe believed that women conceived by eating human flesh...

=== Examples of such unawareness about the cause of pregnancy and reproduction could also fill volumes.

Since the overwhelming power of the erotic impulse menaced to obliterate anything else, most religions tried to counter or at least guide it toward goals more fitting the "higher" religious or social ideals.

The Christian religion, like the Jewish, Muslim and other faiths, for many centuries have been frustratingly concerned with channeling the erotic power into whatever they could control.

The most reasonable solution seemed to consist of limiting copulation, coitus, pregnancy and reproduction to and within an
=== indissoluble monogamous man/woman family.

This rule was reinforced by making the marriage a holy sacrament.

Blessing and regulating the marital sex, however, was not enough, because even the priests were victims of fornication and adultery. Then and now.

=== In the eleventh century, the famous reformer pope Gregory VII (1020-1085) decreed clerical celibacy by condemning "nicolaitism" (clerical marriage or concubinage).

The rule became permanent in the Catholic Church.

Even so, however, a bishop in Liege, France, had to be defrocked in the thirteen century (1274 A. D.) because he impregnated countless women, who delivered not less than 65 illegitimate children by him.

Only homosexuality is more incongruous than that, but infinitely less natural than man/woman sex.
