Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto, in Chapter I:4 of his famous book “Derech Hashem”, identifies the species of mankind as being the primary and central being of the Creation, upon which God seeks to bestow his goodness. All the other components of the Creation were only created for Man’s sake.
God bestowed upon Man an intellect that Man can utilize to perfect himself and to perfect civilization. This intellect was only bestowed upon Man and was not bestowed upon any other animal or creature. There also exists within Man a soul that does not exist in any the other creatures.
We must not allow Man to be devolved into just another animal by the Woke Leftist media and academia. There is far too much propaganda in secular media and secular academia intended to erase the profound differences between Man and animals. Many secular movies may try to falsely imbue animals with human characteristics such as depicting animals as having emotions or depicting animals as being capable of rational mental processes
The elements of Man that constitute Man as a unique creation of God have often been totally erased and denied by the false modern ideologies such as “progressivism” and “scientism”. Without Man’s unique elements, Man would only constitute an advanced form of animal. This is essentially the goal of the modern secularist movements, that is to devolve Man into an advanced form of animal.
How can Neo-Darwinism explain the profound metaphysical differences between Man and the animal kingdom, such as Man’s rational intellect capable of abstract thought, Man’s ability for speech, Man’s recognition of good vs. evil?
Why would Darwinian “survival of the fittest” principles require a gorilla or chimpanzee to develop a rational intellect capable of abstract thought and develop the ability for speech?
A gorilla’s “survival of the fittest” in the jungle requires strong arms to pull bananas off a tree and fight off lions, a gorilla has no need for a rational intellect capable of abstract thought or the ability for speech.
Why would a gorilla require an intellect capable of creating an advanced civilization?
