"Man will make it his purpose to master his own feelings, to raise his instincts to the heights of consciousness, to make them transparent, to extend the wires of his will into hidden recesses, and thereby to raise himself to a new plane, to create a higher social biologic type, or, if you please, a superman."
Leon Trotsky, Literature and Revolution

Hughes on Saving Humanity in Spain

El Pais



Posted: Nov 20, 2007

Friend of IEET Alfredo Colunga writes to alert us that IEET E.D. J. Hughes was quoted in Spain leading newspaper “El País” in an article titled “Ways to avoid our destruction (as humans)”

“Pero el estadounidense James Hughes es más tajante: “La evolución biológica ha terminado o es mucho menos importante que hace 20.000 años. No existe ya una selección biológica real, lo que les pase a mis hijos dependerá de en qué condiciones vivan, no de sus características biólógicas”.

“But James Hughes, from USA, is more categorical: “biological evolution is finished or is far less important than it was 20.000 years ago. It does not exists further a real biological selection; what happens to my children will depend on the conditions they live, not on their biological characteristics.”
