People get all snippy when you even suggest that we're all biologically programmed. That our little strands of DNA are a computer, our brain, the CPU; the Central Procreation Unit. This set of instructions sets us into motion, and despite all our proclamations of freewill we should all just acknowledge that there is a higher purpose driving us forward. Its not G-O-D its D-N-A. We are carefully designed transport mechanisms to get our genes from point A (us) to point B (baby). Is it so hard to imagine that all we've accomplished as a species could all be boiled down to a irresistible desire to make new homes for our genes? Art, culture and civilization... by products? Move the genes on down the line. Its such a romantic let down. You gaze into her eyes, pupils dilate, and a wave of pleasure slides across your skin and pools in your knees. But its nothing more than a trick to move things along to "the act". In that moment the two sets of genes recognize in each other a mutual purpose. "If we go halfsies we both get what we want." A new copy of each gene gets another ride forward. The most successful genes are the ones that grab hold of its host and drives it with the force of demonic possession to fulfill its ultimate goal. Thus the proliferation of horny men and women and a civilization whose success is based on the harnessed power of that drive for sex. But the fledgling genes are not ready for prime time for at least another 15-16 years so our DNA enlists us in yet another task, caretaking those genes and making sure they make it to the point where they can once again be passed along. So we work and nest and make pledges to defend. It all feels so.. right, and proper, and fulfilling. |
