FAQ
Welcome to the Noēsis FAQ. Our subject matters are diverse. Here you will find encapsulated answers to the most frequently asked questions.
The human race is capable of greatness, but we don’t recognize ourselves anymore. Lets unwind it. Start right here.
Noēsis is a 501(c)(3) non-profit humanitarian organization, based in King of Prussia, Pa., USA, dedicated to issues of human sustainability. The accelerating degradation of modern human affairs must be arrested and reversed. As humanity flirts its very mortality as a species, it cannot be allowed to commit itself to a reality from which it cannot return.
Noēsis was formed in 2018, when Founder, Anthony Wall, wrote the script for video called, “Who is Noēsis.” We were awarded its 501c3 status in 2019. We received our IRS Final Determination Letter in early 2020.
Noēsis is fact-based. We contend that no sustainable future is remotely available to modern humanity under current conditions, without process-driven methodology. The human evolutionary timeline is now viewable in detail. Humans can identify the ancient triggers for all modern behavior.
With human self-discovery now possible, he only light to humanity’s FUTURE is that of its PAST. Noēsis will unite all humans on Earth under the banner of species’ self-preservation.
While Noēsis encourages and welcomes all religious affiliations, we are not affiliated with any one religious group. While he original video that anchors Noēsis refers to progressive Quaker humanitarian ideology as an influence, Noēsis is not a Quaker affiliate.
Noēsis recognizes only the shared humanity of all human beings on Earth. Human beings are like and equal beings. Further, all humans share a common place of origin–the African Congo Basin.
The now-provable ONENESS of all humans explains that political affiliation and human sustainability are not in any way related.
Political leaders, regardless of their countries or their ideologies, neither worsen nor improve human sustainability probability.
Further, political divisions are vital to sustaining models of perpetual conflict. The action/reaction models of conflict that define social and economic models are in large part created by political divisions.
Paradoxically, therefore, political leaders are unwitting architects of perpetual conflict. The phenomenon – conflict int perpetuity – is not survivable.
Noēsis has a sweeping mission that requires global presence. Consider:
–We will seek a consensus among all humans on Earth, that humankind is a species in crisis.
–We will unite all humans under the banner of species’ self-preservation, by promoting the inarguable oneness of all humanity, by creating educational initiatives that identify the evolutionary triggers for all modern behavior.
–Only by understanding the immensity of evolutionary influence can we identify the ancient motivators of perpetual conflict.
–Humans can deduce the uselessness of outdated compulsions only when we identify and view them.
The mission of Noēsis is necessarily global. All humans on Earth have arrived together in crisis. We must now find sustainability, as like and equal beings.
Modern humans define themselves as a blank slate upon birth. In fact, all humans carry the weight of 120,000 prior generations before them. Ancient compulsions and impulses are sown into human DNA.
The immensity of evolutionary influence must be understood in detail, or humans will doom themselves to the perpetual conflict caused by these distortions.
Ancient and unresolved relics of evolution are viewable everywhere we look. Modern humans misinterpret threats, all day, every day. These misinterpretations are evolutionary hallucinations.
–A misaligned response is the logical arrival point of a misinterpreted threat. These ancient relics can now be understood.
Misaligned force, if not understood and properly aligned, is a stone killer, should these mechanisms not be examined.
“The Galileo Effect” is the universal metaphor for the human tendency to suppress or erase inconvenient truth.
That tendency, to repel what is not understood, explains why bold thinking tends to be extinguished first and congratulated later.
Don’t take our word for it! Ask Galileo. He was imprisoned, beaten, tortured and starved for the “crime” of endorsing Copernicus’s earlier heliocentric theory, the notion that the Earth was not the center of the universe.
Modern humans harbor an average of 15 secrets. Evolving humans had no secrets to keep. Secretive or truth-repulsion behavior is not natural to humans. What is unnatural is also unsustainable.
When demonstrable truth must first survive a gauntlet of erasure, innumerable delusions that are preserved by this reality are invariably deadly.
Normalization – in its healthy form – describes the human ability to adapt to hardship.
But what happens when behaviors of human adaptability are asked to carry a load greater than it can bear? When the weight of normalized degradation is greater than the human capacity to bear it, we can expect precisely what we see.
The totality of normalization is now bursting at the seams. We might use it as an indicator of mounting helplessness. Instead, we run from it. That choice will arrive at paralysis.
As evidence of waning human control, humans display textbook behaviors that descend from fear.
—“Us v. Them” is a tribal standard. The phenomenon has never been more pronounced. Non-specific anxiety seeks safety in numbers, as a survival tool. A frightened and helpless humanity is mindful of its degradation.
The next stopover for runaway normalization is forming now:
- Dissociative Behavior; Escapism.
As the tank of normalization spills over, an escapist humanity is broken, not flawed.
Noēsis looks upon modern humanity, in full retreat from its anxiety, with great empathy.

The dominoes of social collapse are once again falling in precise order:
—Normalization
—Escapism
—Surrender**
—Collapse***
**Surrender is no longer arrestable.
***Human cultures average 250 years of existence.
The Fermi Paradox describes human cosmic rarity. Humans claim to greatly value rarity, but we assign no value at all to our own rarity.
Italian Astrophysicist, Enrico Fermi calculated that only one billion years are required for any sentient intelligence to traverse and colonize the entire Milky Way galaxy.
Dr. Fermi wondered out loud, “Where is Everyone?” The Fermi Paradox was born that moment.
Fermi’s math demands that, if extra-solar intelligence exists, humans should have by now met them. Humans reached out to the heavens the moment we could. Are aliens lazy? Not likely.
We’ve met no one. We call this, “The Great Silence.”
No one answers our constant knocking at the door. We must consider that no one is home. When will humans deduce their exquisite cosmic rarity?
Mr. Fermi’s paradox drew response from the greatest cosmological minds in the world. Alas, most of their interpretations were reasoned away as being highly improbable, and even impossible.
There is one theory that has survived all attempts to debunk it.
“The Great Filter.”
“The Filter” postulates that sentient intelligence on the same order of humans or higher, tends to destroy itself during its technological awakening, and further, no exceptions exist.
The data suggest that humans may be alone, or at least exceedingly rare.
Human beings are now in contact with The Great Filter. Should our species fail at this point, humans will not have failed. We would be the latest notch in the cosmic belt called, The Great Filter.
Noēsis challenges humanity to value its cosmic rarity, to become the only sentient species to make it through The Great Filter
The Human Injury describes a random and now fully visible crossover period in human evolutionary development, when highly collaborative and affiliative human beings finally reached all points of the globe, around 10-15000 years ago.
With no points of migration, humans settled into increasingly larger populations. An agricultural awakening then ensued, aided by the domestication of beasts of burden, and pack animals such as dogs, to manage these animals.
Migratory beings became stationary beings. The trouble began immediately!
–Stationary cultures fell into behaviors that are foreign to collaborative human DNA. Stationary cultures crossed over from collaborative behavior to acquisitive behavior. This clinically unnatural behavior discouraged, crowded out and replaced deep human longings for collaborative behavior.
A class-based system of unchecked financial meritocracy intruded upon the human experience. Acquisitive self-interest saw the diminishment of once-equal beings.
–The insult to collaborative human DNA was not a situational failure. The insult was and remains a biological one. Modern humanity is acting in a clinically unnatural fashion relative to their collaborative DNA. We will not survive unnatural behavior
SENTIENT CREATURES MUST BE FREE.
Capitalism is the only choice for humankind. it was also the logical default for stationary cultures. Only Capitalism can render humans truly free.
Financial meritocracy in its current iteration, however, is invariably deadly. Humans will not survive models that devalue like and equal beings.
The deepest of human longings are sown indelibly into human DNA. The biology of our collaborative defaults cannot be compromised in any way, if the survival of human interaction is the goal.
A sustainable capitalist will eliminate lesser beings, as a matter of its survival.
Humans have never survived the diminishment of like and equal beings, whether intended or not.
“Inertia” is the title of one of the featured videos on the Noēsis website. It positions the machine-like failure of human interaction not as a human flaw, but as the logical inertia ignited by a traceable event.
Consider an asteroid as it hurdles through space, in a straight line. The asteroid cannot alter its path. Only an outside force will alter it. The analogy describes the precision with which human interaction falters, decays and collapses.
Modern humanity blames, rather than alters its now-visible inertia. Humans have monetized conflict. By extension, our executioner is also our employer.
No logical flow exists to such a decision. That means it’s NOT a decision. Humankind is swept along by an inertia whose causes and components are now as viewable as they are deadly.
–“Homo Erectus” (Upright Mankind) walked the Earth for 1.75mm years.
–“Homo Sapien” altered Homo Erectus’ inertia.
–A third inertia intruded upon the human experience, when collaborative longings were crowded out by acquisitive behavior.
–That current inertia, one of frenzied acquisitive meritocracy, is invariably deadly.
The evolutionary data we now have to fully understand these mechanisms is the altering force. We will access it, and glimpse sustainability. Or we will not, and we will perish by our inaction.
A surviving humankind must understand the ongoing and ancient search for negative information, and its deadly effect. Consider:
–Evolving humans navigated a much harsher landscape than modern humans.
Evolving humans relied upon negative information to plot strategies of survival. The bearer of bad news had more value than the bearer of good news.
The human compulsion to seek negative information is not a thinking mechanism. It doesn’t know that its ancient enemies are dead.
The compulsion has reinvented in the modern day. We must recognize it, or it may destroy us.
The brilliant disguises of “negative information” are all around us.
“Gossip” and “Nit-Picking” are examples of negative information in the modern day. In baser areas of the human brain, we search for ancient dangers that no longer exist.
The highly misaligned nature of negative information must be understood, or the phenomenon will continue to arrive at its only destination–perpetual conflict.
Modern humanity often views itself as a greater being, compared to other living things. A degrading humanity has rationalized its mounting dangers. It sounds like this:
“We’ll figure it out. Once the human species is on the ropes, we’ll evolve. We’ll find a way”!
No, we won’t ! We will not cheat the data.
– 99.9% of life forms that once existed on Earth are now extinct, about 5,000,000,000 species.
– Earth loses about 150 species per day to extinction.
An insidious common denominator exists. All extinct species committed to their demise long before the last of their kind fell. Commitment is the point past which we cannot recover.
A committed humanity would clock out that moment. Leaving the building would be a painful formality.
Noēsis asks humanity to consider the unquantifiable despair our children would endure, when and if we commit to a reality from which we cannot return.
Noēsis does not exist to describe it. We exist to prevent it.
Noēsis exists to redirect humanity away from commitment to extinction. In order to do so, we must identify and describe the main conduits that lead to perpetual conflict among humans.
Noēsis has identified two broad conduits to perpetual conflict. These are “blame/blame rejection”, and “non-concession”. Both of these phenomena have been fully monetized. Humans economically depend upon the conflict that descends from both. The serial killer of human interaction is also what pays our bills.
Non-concession describes the maddening human inability to concede a material fact, even in the face of an indefensible position. Stubborn behavior springs from the subconscious belief that we are under attack, and more, that our very lives are in danger.
These evolutionary relics will be understood and redirected, or humankind will perish by its inaction.
The “Mother of Paradox” is revealed. There is no money in the “fix”, only in the “fissure”. This ongoing phenomenon, where humans are enslaved by our evolutionary past, is not survivable IN ANY WAY.
The social and economic dynamics that provably destroyed all stationary human cultures of the last 10,000 years is once again at the center of all human interaction.
Noēsis contends that models of conflict into perpetuity are not remotely survivable. As a central part of our mission, we would seek to establish a global consensus; that is, an agreement between all countries on Earth, that human beings are in fact a species in existential crisis. No remedial process can begin, let alone persist, without an agreement that our species is failing.
Immediate agreement – that humans are ONE LIKE SPECIES – will be achieved quickly between all or most US-allied countries, but others will not immediately respond, or might instead respond with skepticism.
Noēsis understands this! Gaining consensus will therefore require a decade or more. The mission of Noēsis must unfold over several decades of time.
Seeking consensus – that humanity is in crisis – will run concurrently with myriad other activities, such as the dissemination of educational initiatives that describe evolutionary influence upon modern behavior.
The assertion that past human cultures were mathematically pre-ordained to fail is neither bold, nor is it difficult to demonstrate. Evolutionary events described by Noēsis went on destroy all human cultures, with no exceptions.
The machine-like patterns seen in all past human failures is therefore a socio-mathematical constant. Any constant, by its nature, requires an outside force to alter it.
These lost cultures averaged 250 years of existence, prior to collapse. Each was slowly disassembled by “increasing complexity, exacerbated by inequality”.
The new cultures that arise from these ashes quickly form the very same destructive dynamics, despite the most well-intentioned efforts
Our history books describe the situations that led to failure. Situational analyses make for interesting reading, but they have no utility past that. Humans have been acting out the same play, with different actors, for 10,000 years, since the dawn of stationary cultures.
The evolutionary crossover event – The Human Injury – that created these social constants are now well-understood.
Any human hierarchy that does not form naturally is inarguably doomed. Diminished human beings in any stationary culture will collapse the system. There are no exceptions. The constant unfolds as follows:
- Resentment forms within “lesser” beings.
- Resentful beings plot Vengeance.
- Vengeance manifests as Insurgency.
- Compensatory actions eventually arrive at brute force. They in fact hasten what they intend to contain.
- Increasing complexity reaches critical mass; societal collapse is imminent.
- Humans arise from these described ashes and repeat steps 1 through 5. Precision like this denotes a traceable constant.
Around 10-15,000 years ago, migrating and collaborative humans began to settle down into increasingly larger populations. Our natural longings for collaborative behavior were discouraged, and eventually replaced by the self-interest of acquisitive behavior.
The demands of Meritocracy-based systems are directly linked with the increasing human tendency to tell lies that never need to be told. Here’s the link:
- Humans are judged every day by their fellow humans, against a standard of perfection.
- Imperfect beings cannot attain perfection. We come up short. When we do, we fear social scrutiny. Our shortcomings ignite a survival issue in the subconscious human brain. To compensate, we search for ways to camoflauge our shortcomings.
The lies we choose fill in the space between the standard of perfection, and what we’re capable of giving.
A sentient species that tells lies and keeps secrets is acting unnaturally, doomed to perpetual conflict, and not sustainable in any way whatsoever.
The human race, all eight billion humans alive on Earth today, has terms that apply to all of us. The destiny of our rapidly degrading species is no longer within our control. That reality evokes a sense of “freefall” for an increasingly helpless humanity. Freefall has two possibilities available to it:
- It can be offset by deploying a parachute, allowing freefall to resolve seamlessly.
- Freefall without a parachute awaits a sudden stop at the bottom.
Human beings have no metaphorical parachute to break our fall. We have no understanding of the evolutionary mechanisms to which we remain fully captive. The arrival point for freefall is the gathering storm now sensed by an emotionally exhausted humankind.
In response, consider these bullet points:
- Humanity has arrived at self-loathing. As a sentient species we find ourselves locked into ceaseless battle. We increasingly – and wrongly – view ourselves as a scourge. That cognitive distortion must be arrested and reversed. Like any ruinous inertia, it requires an outside force to alter it. That force is the evolutionary data now available to us.
- A glaring, fully viewable and utterly random crossover event in the human evolutionary timeline lit the fuse of constant human failure. Understanding the point of insult to the developing human psyche is VITAL to achieving human sustainability.
- The deepest of human longings were discouraged and replaced by the rigors of acquisitive behavior. The dynamics associated with self-interest are utterly foreign to collaborative human DNA. This is a biological insult, not a situational one.
- That single event, when collaborative longings yielded to self-interest, ignited clinically unnatural behavior among stationary humans. Unnatural behavior cannot persist in nature. Past human cultures never knew that they were pre-ordain to fail. None of them possessed the data that may have redirected their eventual fate.
- Noēsis holds these descriptions to be inarguable. The point of ignition for all human failure can now be described in great detail.
- With the event – The Human Injury – now isolated, a blameless humanity can abandon the self-loathing it did not invite. Humanity can view itself with empathy.
- We promptly and unwittingly monetized all of these models of conflict. In literal terms, we monetized our very serial killer.
- Modern humans now look out upon a degrading landscape, one that will devolve further into escapism, surrender, collapse and dystopia if left unaltered. The fully derailed train of humanity cannot place itself back on the track.
When problem-solving for human sustainability, there must be certain immovable assumptions. These assumptions must be scalable to all humans on Earth. Resistance to these assumptions is accepted without reservation.
Nevertheless, we conclude:
- Human beings in fact evolved on Planet Earth. Further, human beings share a place of origin for our species, the African Congo Basin.
- Human evolution includes relatives that date back seven million years.
- Items #1 and #2 allow us to responsibly calculate the number of prior generations of humans that existed before modern humans.
- The number of prior human generations is 150,000.
- with 150,000 prior human generations packed into each new human generation, it’s no stretch that modern humans are heavily outgunned by our own defensive biology. These mechanisms activate immediately. They do not recognize a kinder, gentler modern reality.
- Saddled with this considerable weight, 150,000 generations of evolutionary baggage, modern humankind cannot find its future. A sentient being chained to its evolutionary past must quantify its prison to escape it. That will require decades of education.
- Modern humanity is endangered by biological concerns, not the situations that descend from them. Modern humanity need not wonder why it continues to degrade. The immense weight of evolutionary baggage is one that humans cannot bear.
- Surrendering to it is counterintuitive. It’s also vital. We dissociate from our pain, and thereby surrender to it.
Humans will fail in their attempt to find sustainability, under present circumstances. We ask readers to pay attention to the last part of the above sentence, “…under present circumstances.”
Consider:
Should humans control climate change, pandemic, nuclear concerns and disruptive technologies, our chances of surviving to sustainability will increase by a factor of ZERO.
We conclude the above via the following deductive process:
–Sentient intelligence is defined as any physical being that ponders the nature of its existence. Such a being is assigned very little chance to survive its eventual technological awakening. These are the common-sense conclusions of Socio-Anthropological computer models.
–Modern humanity is in fact assigned little chance, perhaps 2-3%, of surviving the totality of its mounting excesses, as they form right in front of us.
–In cosmic terms, any intelligent being in the universe is assumed to have evolved on their home world. Like humans, these beings would possess the defensive tools to survive the rigors of their migratory journey to all parts of their world.
–Their tools, like ours, will enable them to either fight, or to run. “Fight-or-flight” is a universal gift for corporeal creatures, whether sentient or not.
–The hair-trigger activation of defensive compulsions must crowd out the thinking mind.
–In a deadly paradox, therefore, the gifts that allow any sentient being to survive its evolutionary journey will one day hamper that journey, for a basic reason. The ancient enemies that all migratory beings fight will one day be neutralized. Defensive mechanisms possess no capacity to deduce their uselessness.
–The misinterpretations that follow will lock any sentient being forever into conflict, just as humans now are.
The above conclusions are at the heart of “The Great Filter.” It postulates – correctly, we think – that sentient intelligence is constantly defeated by the very “gifts” that once allowed it to thrive.
For beleaguered modern humans, without full knowledge of the immensity of these relic evolutionary forces, what was once our best friend transforms into our worst enemy, not invisibly, but right before our eyes.
For humans, the WILL to change will fail! Willpower is based in thought. The compulsions that our willpower will target cannot think. They will defeat any attempt to quell them. Their protective intentions are pure; their results are deadly. These mechanisms cannot release their ancient prisoners.
The need to evolve to sustainability will one day present itself, as it now has for modern humans. Without reintegrating with ancient compulsions, what we’ve sent to the basement lives on.
The human species is engaged in behavior wholly foreign to human DNA. Nature selects what is unnatural for its demise, with surgical and frightening efficiency.
Noēsis exists to steer an increasingly helpless humankind away from the specter of commitment to extinction. Commitment denotes the mathematical point past which no return is possible. Further, the point of commitment can be deduced only in retrospect.
Issues of human sustainability no longer enjoy the luxury of theory. Partnering with academia would likely create a hopeless entanglement of disagreement, most of it based in minutiae. A degrading humanity needs answers–NOW.
Noēsis is fact-based. Far from ignoring considered debate, we welcome any material fact that would alter our conclusions. We rely on what we can demonstrate to be true, or that which stands directly to reason.
We will partner with any effort at human sustainability. We will concede to material fact, and we will alter our stated ideology accordingly. What we cannot do is to engage in bickering with academic institutions over minutiae. Academic institutions are vehicles of teaching, not of coordinating worldwide influence.
Noēsis cannot submit our conclusions for academic scrutiny. But we WILL participate in any meaningful debate where critical thinking demands and receives ours and others’ concession to material fact.
Noēsis is glad to clear up any misunderstanding.
In the last 10,000 years, all stationary cultures that formed took up acquisitive behavior. These were logical and random developments.
These radically new behaviors run fully counter to deep human longings for collaboration and affiliation. Collaborative and self-interested models repel one another.
Acquisitive behavior created unnatural hierarchies. A class-based meritocracy asked stationary humans to be either greater or lesser.
No human culture ever survived a diminished human being, and no culture ever will survive it.
Human failure is a study in precision, no complexity. Only a socio-mathematical constant yields precision.
Tracing evolutionary influence upon modern human behavior has infinite value, but analyzing the variable situations has no value whatsoever.
Wherever a lesser being can be found, the dominoes fall in this order:
- Resentment
- Vengeance
- Insurgency
Resentment is the lone arrival point for any diminished human being.
Humanity will think its way to a sustainable future, or we will never arrive. We will not stumble into it.
Noēsis holds the following macro-humanist observations to be inarguably true. We welcome all considered debate. We will alter our conclusions if the introduction of material fact demands it.
Until then, consider:
–A staggering array of evolutionary compulsions burn brightly inside all modern humans. These baser mechanisms of defense activate many times faster than the thinking brain.
–Misinterpreted threats that descend from these distortions are at the core of all conflict.
–The point of injury to the developing human psyche is precisely knowable. It unfolded when the collaborative and affiliative human brain first took up behaviors of acquisitive meritocracy.
–Humans are born neither violent nor cruel. Both of these maladies descend from psychic injury, fed by unnatural, class-based systems of financial meritocracy. Resentment intruded upon the human experience for the first time.”
—The Human Condition is deteriorating. Should modern humans fail to recognize, quantify and arrest human degradation, the freefall of degradation must and will resolve chaotically. A human unwillingness to absorb now-available evolutionary data will destroy us.
–Human extinction by its own hand is as certain as it is unnecessary. Inaction nevertheless guarantees that what need not occur, will occur.
–Illogical macro behavior is not a choice. It has its roots in primitive influence. All modern behavior, with very few exceptions, descends from a misinterpreted environment.”
-Humans will glimpse sustainability only when humans surrender to, and then define their evolutionary prison. Should humans fail to quantify the prison of evolutionary influence, we will perish in the very prison we did not define.
–Humans have fully monetized perpetual conflict. Deductively, therefore, the only known destroyer of human interaction (conflict into perpetuity) is also what feeds our families. This is a killer that no one intended to create. Human arrival into sustainability therefore requires first that we forgive ourselves.
—The Human Injury by itself is at the heart of human dysfunction. Modern humans are not flawed in any way. We are broken, injured and frightened–set adrift when our natural longings were discouraged, crowded out and replaced.
–Noēsis will seek consensus among all human beings on Earth, that we have arrived at our present-day existential crisis as EQUAL and LIKE beings. We are a species in crisis.
–The future of Mankind is not knowable, but Mankind’s past is fully knowable. Hope and remedy for modern humanity requires that we know ourselves as a species. Self-discovery is now possible for the first time. The evolutionary motivators for all behavior are knowable.
–Modern humanity is engaged in increasingly escapist behavior, placed there by our helplessness against advancing human degradation. Modern humankind must therefore summon the courage to view itself. We will seek and absorb that data or perish under its weight. We have a choice.
—The light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long. Modern humans are accelerating into a curve. The broken-down vehicle we drive is ill-equipped. Humanity cannot avoid the curve, but we CAN properly equip the vehicle.
–Advances in Cosmology and Astronomy show the human species to be among the most rare and unique species in the galaxy. Humans claim to greatly value rarity! Why do we discount our own?The cosmic rarity of the human species must be understood in any quest to attain human sustainability.
–Humans cannot unite politically, religiously or culturally. Noēsis will not pursue the impossible. Rather, we will unite all humans on Earth under the banner of species’ self-preservation. The process will and must unfold over decades.
–Human history books are vehicles to describe the variable situations that cause repetitive human failure. We must alter our history books to become vehicles of analysis. They must transcend mere description. They must isolate and quantify the evolutionary influences, with their attending mathematical patterns, that combine to defeat all human interaction.
–Human beings share the same place of origin–the African Congo Basin. There is no conjecture of any kind on this matter. Humans are genetically linked to essentially 100%.
–Prior to 200 years ago, human cultures had knowledge that other humans were clinical brothers and sisters. Perpetual conflict is unnatural to humans. No past human culture knew that we evolved on this Earth.
–The humans that we were once in conflict with and those we enslaved were also our clinical brothers and sisters.
–There is no BLAME.
–There is no JUDGMENT.
–There is only UNDERSTANDING.
–A sustainable human species will throw down its sword, or we will destroy ourselves.
–Educational initiatives must maintain a slow and steady progression over decades. There cannot be an interruption of currently deployed human models. As the mission of Noēsis unfolds, all of humanity is asked to simply carry on, with no threat to current models. It will require decades to unwind what it took 10,000 years to create.
Noēsis is a 501(c)(3) non-profit humanitarian organization, based in King of Prussia, Pa., USA, dedicated to issues of human sustainability. The accelerating degradation of modern human affairs must be arrested and reversed, or a helpless humanity will commit itself to a reality from which it cannot return.
Noēsis was formed in 2018, awarded its 501c3 status in 2019, and received its IRS Final Determination Letter in early 2020.
Noēsis is fact-based. We contend that no sustainable future is remotely available to modern humanity under current conditions, in lieu of process-driven methodology. The human evolutionary timeline is now viewable in great detail, enabling humans to now identify the ancient triggers for all modern behavior.
In a very real sense, therefore, the only light to humanity’s FUTURE is that of its PAST.
With the mortality of the human species now visible to all humans, a common enemy now reveals itself. Noēsis will unite all humans under the banner of species’ self-preservation.
While Noēsis encourages and welcomes all religious affiliations, we are affiliated with none. The original video that anchors Noēsis refers to Quaker humanitarian ideology as an influence, but Noēsis is not a Quaker affiliate.
Noēsis recognizes only the shared humanity of all human beings on Earth. Human beings are like and equal beings. No other interpretation has ever survived, nor will it. Political affiliation and human sustainability are therefore not related.
To be clear, political leaders neither worsen nor improve human sustainability probability. Political divisions are VITAL to sustaining models of perpetual conflict. The dynamic – conflict into perpetuity – is not survivable.
Noēsis has a sweeping mission that requires global presence. We will seek a consensus among all humans on Earth, that humankind is a species in crisis. We will unite all humans under the banner of species’ self-preservation, by promoting the inarguable oneness of all humanity, by also creating educational initiatives that identify the evolutionary triggers for all modern behavior. Only by understanding the ancient motivators of perpetual conflict can we deduce their uselessness, and more than that, their invariably deadly consequences.
Modern humans define themselves as a “blank slate” upon birth. That contention is wildly incorrect. Cognitive distortions such as this will do well to be identified and very slowly disassembled, as a matter of human survival.
Modern humans in fact carry the weight of five million years (150,000 separate generations) of evolutionary influence upon their present-day behavior. The immensity of these evolutionary influences must be understood.
The crushing weight of evolutionary influence is viewable everywhere we look. Consider:
–Modern humans misinterpret their environments, all day, every day. The primitive forces of protection inside all of us are unimpressed with the kinder-gentler present day reality. These forces have no capacity to think. They cannot view themselves, let alone deduce their uselessness in the modern day. These evolutionary “hallucinations” occur in deeply subconscious areas of the human brain.
–This “action/reaction” dynamic then escalates. This explains the heavily misaligned responses we see in all human interaction in the modern day.
These ancient relics can now be greatly understood. We send them every day to vanquish dangers that stopped existing multiple eons ago for evolving humans.
Perpetuated conflict is brought to life billions of times a day, courtesy of evolutionary distortions. These non-bargaining relics of brutality will never release their prisoners.
“The Galileo Effect” is a three-part video that serves as a universal metaphor for the human tendency to suppress and/or erase inconvenient truth.
Human history explains that highly inconvenient and bold thinking is extinguished first, rather than congratulated. Don’t take our word for it. Ask Galileo. He was imprisoned, beaten, tortured and starved for the “crime” of endorsing Copernicus’s earlier heliocentric theory, the notion that the Earth was NOT the center of the universe.
Modern humanity now has the average human being harboring an average of 15 secrets. Evolving humans had no secrets to keep. Anything that is foreign to human DNA is not sustainable.
When inconvenient but demonstrable truth goes through a gauntlet of erasure, the mass delusions that are preserved by this reality are invariably deadly.
Normalization in its healthy form describes the human ability to adapt to hardship.
With human degradation now accelerating in the modern day, the normalization of these growing calamities is the only arrival point of human helplessness.
Normalization of human calamity now has modern humans experiencing a sense of “freefall”, a lack of control. What is not in control is an inertia that, if left undisturbed, must and will resolve chaotically.
With normalization bulging at the seams, non-specific anxiety is an increasing reality for modern humans. Non-specific anxiety is at the heart of the deep political divisions we see in the modern day. These divisions, while increasingly vicious, are also the logical manifestation of mounting fear. With perfect strangers now engaging in mindless battles, Noēsis explains that humans are not natural enemies.
Human beings, from from being uber-political, are displaying the textbook behaviors that descend from fear.
–“Us v. Them” is more pronounced. This is a textbook and primitive tribal default, consistent with “safety in numbers.”
There is ample reason for non-specific human anxiety. What sentient creature would not fear the ongoing human degradation that we see all around us?
—————–
What is the logical arrival point of escalating normalization? The answer is forming now, if we know where to look. Dissociative Behavior is escalating–Escapism.
A few examples:
–Alternative realities are for more and more humans are apparently safer than the deteriorating reality we see. Alternative forms of entertainment are now our choice. These “superhero” choices see no need whatsoever to adhere to constant laws of physics or motion. These characters are now too many to count. They share a common denominator. These characters that have no basis whatsoever in science.
Dissociation from mounting human fragility, in favor of invincible heroes, reveals a frightened humanity that can no longer bear the weight of its anxiety.
——————
What will follow unchecked Escapism? In a word, Surrender. The breakdown and collapse of every human culture that ever existed occurred along this precise mathematical progression:
—Normalization*
—Escapism*
—Surrender**
—Collapse***
* These are accelerating. They can be arrested and reversed, but decreasingly so with time.
**This is not arrestable.
***50 major human cultures have collapsed. Each averaged 250 years of existence. Humans are now in contact with, “The Great Filter.” (See below).
We will not survive the current inertia in lieu of process-driven methodology.
The Fermi Paradox describes human cosmic rarity. Humans greatly value rarity, but we assign no value to our own rarity.
Italian Astrophysicist, Enrico Fermi postulated that only one billion years is required for a sentient intelligence in the Milky Way galaxy to traverse and colonize the entire galaxy, at sub-light speed. These calculations caused Dr. Fermi to wonder out loud, “Where is Everyone?”
The Fermi Paradox was born that moment.
Fermi reasoned that, if extra-solar intelligence existed, human beings would have already met them, or at least have seen ample evidence of other beings, logically in the form of probes from other worlds.
With this true, we’ve met no one. The Fermi Paradox seeks therefore to explain what’s called, “The Great Silence.”
Noēsis asks inconvenient questions. Here’s one:
When no one ever answers a constant knocking at the door, when we will consider that no one is home? By extension, when will we deduce the exquisite rarity of the human species?
Mr. Fermi’s famous paradox attracts responses from the greatest cosmological minds in the world. Their combined body of speculation has not yet solved the paradox. Most of these theories, in fact, were reasoned away as being highly improbable, and even impossible.
There is one theory that has survived all attempts to debunk it. It’s the one explanation that cannot be reasoned away.
“The Great Filter.”
“The Filter” postulates that all sentient intelligence in the universe, on the same order of humans or higher, tends to destroy itself during its technological awakening. “The Filter” further suggests that no exceptions exist to this rule.
Now, as incoming data is increasingly sophisticated, the data suggest that we may be alone, or at least exceedingly rare.
“The Great Filter” has many implications. If human beings, who are now in contact with the filter, fail to break through to sustainability, that would not denote failure. It would render humans to have been eminently normal, in cosmic terms.
We again urgently remind humanity that we are in contact with “The Filter” now. We challenge humanity to value its cosmic rarity, to possibly become the ONLY sentient intelligence to make it through The Great Filter, to preserve itself.
The Human Injury describes a random and now fully visible crossover period in human evolutionary development, when highly collaborative and affiliative human beings finally reached all points of the globe, around 10-15000 years ago.
With the migratory phase of human evolution fully-executed, humans logically settled into increasingly larger populations. An agricultural awakening then ensued, aided by the domestication of beasts of burden, and pack animals such as dogs, to manage these animals. Migratory beings slowly became Stationary beings.
The trouble began immediately.
–Stationary cultures unwittingly fell into behavioral dynamics that were (and still are) foreign to collaborative human DNA. Specifically, stationary cultures crossed over from collaborative behavior to acquisitive behavior.
–This clinically unnatural behavior discouraged, crowded out and replaced deep human longings for collaborative behavior.
–A class-based system of financial meritocracy intruded upon the human experience. Acquisitive self-interest saw the diminishment of once-equal beings.
–The resulting psychic insult to collaborative human DNA was not a situational failure. The insult was, and remains a biological one.
Unnatural behavior cannot persist in nature. Modern humanity is acting in a clinically unnatural fashion, relative to migratory DNA.
SENTIENT CREATURES MUST BE FREE.
Capitalism is the only choice for humankind. it was also the logical default for stationary cultures. Only Capitalism can render humans truly free.
Do humans have Capitalism all wrong? There is no conjecture on this matter. Financial meritocracy, in its current iteration, is not merely problematic. It’s deadly. Humans will NOT survive any economic models that devalue equal beings.
The human migratory journey unfolded in the spirit of equality and cooperation. The deepest of human longings are sown indelibly into human DNA. The biology of this phenomenon cannot be violated or compromised in any way, if the survival of human interaction is the goal.
A sustainable capitalist future will not feature lesser beings, as a matter of its survival. All humans on Earth must be viewed and treated as NECESSARY, rather than lesser.
Humans never have survived, nor will humans ever survive the diminishment of like and equal beings, whether intended or not.
“Inertia” is the title of one of the featured videos on the Noēsis website. It positions the machine-like failure of human interaction not as a human flaw, but as the logical inertia ignited by a traceable event.
Consider an asteroid as it hurdles through space, in a straight line. The asteroid has no control of itself. It cannot alter its path. Only the imposition of an outside force will alter it. The analogy is precise in describing the eerie precision with which human interaction falters, decays and collapses. Precision that can be reproduced anywhere and anytime is a mathematical constant.
An increasingly helpless modern humanity blames, rather than alters, its now-visible inertia. Behaviors that have no utility for problem-solving are now revealed as economic models, not solutions. Literally, therefore, humans have monetized their executioner.
No logical flow exists to such a decision. That means it’s NOT a decision. Humankind is swept along by an inertia whose causes and components are now as viewable as they are deadly.
–“Homo Erectus” (Upright Mankind) walked the Earth for 1.75mm years.
–“Homo Sapien” altered Homo Erectus’ inertia.
–A third inertia intruded upon the human experience, when collaborative longings were crowded out by acquisitive behavior.
–That current inertia, one of frenzied acquisitive meritocracy, is invariably deadly.
The evolutionary data we now have to fully understand these mechanisms is the altering force. We will access it, and glimpse sustainability. Or we will not, and we will perish by our inaction.
When Noēsis unites humankind under the banner of “species’ self-preservation”, humans can then learn the evolutionary causes of every action we take in the modern day.
We must first understand the ongoing and ancient search for negative information, and its deadly effect upon modern humanity. Consider:
–Evolving humans navigated a much harsher landscape than modern humans.
–In order to survive, evolving humans relied mostly upon negative information to plot strategies of survival. The bearer of bad news therefore had more value than the bearer of good news.
This deeply baked-in human compulsion, to seek negative information, is not a thinking mechanism. It doesn’t recognize a kinder, gentler modern-day reality. It does not know that its ancient enemies are dead. The compulsion has reinvented in the modern day. We must recognize it, or it may destroy us.
The brilliant disguises of “negative information” are all around us.
“Gossip” and “Nit-Picking” are examples of negative information in the modern day. In baser areas of the human brain, we search for ancient dangers that no longer exist.
The highly misaligned nature of negative information must be understood, or the phenomenon will continue to arrive at its only destination–perpetual conflict.
The human choice to ignore what now can and must be understood will be noted prominently in the autopsy for a helpless humanity that will not VIEW itself.
Modern humans feel that they can cheat evolutionary data. Indeed, humans view themselves as greater beings than other living things. Evolutionary data suggests differently. Consider:
– 99.9% of all life forms that once existed on Earth are now extinct, about 5,000,000,000 species.
–During the time it takes to read this sentence, one species just went extinct. Earth loses about 150 species per day to extinction.
–Of all past extinctions, each one shared a common denominator. Each of them committed to their demise long before the last of their kind disappeared forever. Commitment denotes the mathematical point past which we cannot recover.
Were we to achieve commitment, the human species will “clock out.” Leaving the building would be a formality. Noēsis asks humanity to consider the unquantifiable despair that our children and their children would endure, when and if we commit to a reality from which we cannot return.
Noēsis does not exist to describe it. We exist to prevent it.
Noēsis exists to redirect humanity away from commitment to extinction. In order to do so, we must identify and describe the main conduits that lead to perpetual conflict among humans.
Noēsis has identified two broad conduits to perpetual conflict. These are “blame/blame rejection”, and “non-concession”. Both of these phenomena have been fully monetized. Humans economically depend upon the conflict that descends from both. The serial killer of human interaction is also what pays our bills.
Non-concession describes the maddening human inability to concede a material fact, even in the face of an indefensible position. Stubborn behavior springs from the subconscious belief that we are under attack, and more, that our very lives are in danger.
These evolutionary relics will be understood and redirected, or humankind will perish by its inaction.
The “Mother of Paradox” is revealed. There is no money in the “fix”, only in the “fissure”. This ongoing phenomenon, where humans are enslaved by our evolutionary past, is not survivable IN ANY WAY.
The social and economic dynamics that provably destroyed all stationary human cultures of the last 10,000 years is once again at the center of all human interaction.
Noēsis contends that models of conflict into perpetuity are not remotely survivable. As a central part of our mission, we would seek to establish a global consensus; that is, an agreement between all countries on Earth, that human beings are in fact a species in existential crisis. No remedial process can begin, let alone persist, without an agreement that our species is failing.
Immediate agreement – that humans are ONE LIKE SPECIES – will be achieved quickly between all or most US-allied countries, but others will not immediately respond, or might instead respond with skepticism.
Noēsis understands this! Gaining consensus will therefore require a decade or more. The mission of Noēsis must unfold over several decades of time.
Seeking consensus – that humanity is in crisis – will run concurrently with myriad other activities, such as the dissemination of educational initiatives that describe evolutionary influence upon modern behavior.
The assertion that past human cultures were mathematically pre-ordained to fail is neither bold, nor is it difficult to demonstrate. Evolutionary events described by Noēsis went on destroy all human cultures, with no exceptions.
The machine-like patterns seen in all past human failures is therefore a socio-mathematical constant. Any constant, by its nature, requires an outside force to alter it.
These lost cultures averaged 250 years of existence, prior to collapse. Each was slowly disassembled by “increasing complexity, exacerbated by inequality”.
The new cultures that arise from these ashes quickly form the very same destructive dynamics, despite the most well-intentioned efforts
Our history books describe the situations that led to failure. Situational analyses make for interesting reading, but they have no utility past that. Humans have been acting out the same play, with different actors, for 10,000 years, since the dawn of stationary cultures.
The evolutionary crossover event – The Human Injury – that created these social constants are now well-understood.
Any human hierarchy that does not form naturally is inarguably doomed. Diminished human beings in any stationary culture will collapse the system. There are no exceptions. The constant unfolds as follows:
- Resentment forms within “lesser” beings.
- Resentful beings plot Vengeance.
- Vengeance manifests as Insurgency.
- Compensatory actions eventually arrive at brute force. They in fact hasten what they intend to contain.
- Increasing complexity reaches critical mass; societal collapse is imminent.
- Humans arise from these described ashes and repeat steps 1 through 5. Precision like this denotes a traceable constant.
Around 10-15,000 years ago, migrating and collaborative humans began to settle down into increasingly larger populations. Our natural longings for collaborative behavior were discouraged, and eventually replaced by the self-interest of acquisitive behavior.
The demands of Meritocracy-based systems are directly linked with the increasing human tendency to tell lies that never need to be told. Here’s the link:
- Humans are judged every day by their fellow humans, against a standard of perfection.
- Imperfect beings cannot attain perfection. We come up short. When we do, we fear social scrutiny. Our shortcomings ignite a survival issue in the subconscious human brain. To compensate, we search for ways to camoflauge our shortcomings.
The lies we choose fill in the space between the standard of perfection, and what we’re capable of giving.
A sentient species that tells lies and keeps secrets is acting unnaturally, doomed to perpetual conflict, and not sustainable in any way whatsoever.
The human race, all eight billion humans alive on Earth today, has terms that apply to all of us. The destiny of our rapidly degrading species is no longer within our control. That reality evokes a sense of “freefall” for an increasingly helpless humanity. Freefall has two possibilities available to it:
- It can be offset by deploying a parachute, allowing freefall to resolve seamlessly.
- Freefall without a parachute awaits a sudden stop at the bottom.
Human beings have no metaphorical parachute to break our fall. We have no understanding of the evolutionary mechanisms to which we remain fully captive. The arrival point for freefall is the gathering storm now sensed by an emotionally exhausted humankind.
In response, consider these bullet points:
- Humanity has arrived at self-loathing. As a sentient species we find ourselves locked into ceaseless battle. We increasingly – and wrongly – view ourselves as a scourge. That cognitive distortion must be arrested and reversed. Like any ruinous inertia, it requires an outside force to alter it. That force is the evolutionary data now available to us.
- A glaring, fully viewable and utterly random crossover event in the human evolutionary timeline lit the fuse of constant human failure. Understanding the point of insult to the developing human psyche is VITAL to achieving human sustainability.
- The deepest of human longings were discouraged and replaced by the rigors of acquisitive behavior. The dynamics associated with self-interest are utterly foreign to collaborative human DNA. This is a biological insult, not a situational one.
- That single event, when collaborative longings yielded to self-interest, ignited clinically unnatural behavior among stationary humans. Unnatural behavior cannot persist in nature. Past human cultures never knew that they were pre-ordain to fail. None of them possessed the data that may have redirected their eventual fate.
- Noēsis holds these descriptions to be inarguable. The point of ignition for all human failure can now be described in great detail.
- With the event – The Human Injury – now isolated, a blameless humanity can abandon the self-loathing it did not invite. Humanity can view itself with empathy.
- We promptly and unwittingly monetized all of these models of conflict. In literal terms, we monetized our very serial killer.
- Modern humans now look out upon a degrading landscape, one that will devolve further into escapism, surrender, collapse and dystopia if left unaltered. The fully derailed train of humanity cannot place itself back on the track.
When problem-solving for human sustainability, there must be certain immovable assumptions. These assumptions must be scalable to all humans on Earth. Resistance to these assumptions is accepted without reservation.
Nevertheless, we conclude:
- Human beings in fact evolved on Planet Earth. Further, human beings share a place of origin for our species, the African Congo Basin.
- Human evolution includes relatives that date back seven million years.
- Items #1 and #2 allow us to responsibly calculate the number of prior generations of humans that existed before modern humans.
- The number of prior human generations is 150,000.
- with 150,000 prior human generations packed into each new human generation, it’s no stretch that modern humans are heavily outgunned by our own defensive biology. These mechanisms activate immediately. They do not recognize a kinder, gentler modern reality.
- Saddled with this considerable weight, 150,000 generations of evolutionary baggage, modern humankind cannot find its future. A sentient being chained to its evolutionary past must quantify its prison to escape it. That will require decades of education.
- Modern humanity is endangered by biological concerns, not the situations that descend from them. Modern humanity need not wonder why it continues to degrade. The immense weight of evolutionary baggage is one that humans cannot bear.
- Surrendering to it is counterintuitive. It’s also vital. We dissociate from our pain, and thereby surrender to it.
This is a subject that begs to be clarified, and we are so very glad to do so.
Humans will fail in their attempt to find sustainability, under present circumstances. We ask readers to pay attention to the last part of the above sentence, “…under present circumstances.”
Consider:
Should humans control climate change, pandemic, nuclear concerns and disruptive technologies, our chances of surviving to sustainability will increase by a factor of ZERO.
We conclude the above via the following deductive process:
–Sentient intelligence is defined as any physical being that ponders the nature of its existence. Such a being is assigned very little chance to survive its eventual technological awakening. These are the common-sense conclusions of Socio-Anthropological computer models.
–Modern humanity is in fact assigned little chance, perhaps 2-3%, of surviving the totality of its mounting excesses, as they form right in front of us.
–In cosmic terms, any intelligent being in the universe is assumed to have evolved on their home world. Like humans, these beings would possess the defensive tools to survive the rigors of their migratory journey to all parts of their world.
–Their tools, like ours, will enable them to either fight, or to run. “Fight-or-flight” is a universal gift for corporeal creatures, whether sentient or not.
–The hair-trigger activation of defensive compulsions must crowd out the thinking mind.
–In a deadly paradox, therefore, the gifts that allow any sentient being to survive its evolutionary journey will one day hamper that journey, for a basic reason. The ancient enemies that all migratory beings fight will one day be neutralized. Defensive mechanisms possess no capacity to deduce their uselessness.
–The misinterpretations that follow will lock any sentient being forever into conflict, just as humans now are.
The above conclusions are at the heart of “The Great Filter.” It postulates – correctly, we think – that sentient intelligence is constantly defeated by the very “gifts” that once allowed it to thrive.
For beleaguered modern humans, without full knowledge of the immensity of these relic evolutionary forces, what was once our best friend transforms into our worst enemy, not invisibly, but right before our eyes.
For humans, the WILL to change will fail! Willpower is based in thought. The compulsions that our willpower will target cannot think. They will defeat any attempt to quell them. Their protective intentions are pure; their results are deadly. These mechanisms cannot release their ancient prisoners.
The need to evolve to sustainability will one day present itself, as it now has for modern humans. Without reintegrating with ancient compulsions, what we’ve sent to the basement lives on.
The human species is engaged in behavior wholly foreign to human DNA. Nature selects what is unnatural for its demise, with surgical and frightening efficiency.
Noēsis exists to steer an increasingly helpless humankind away from the specter of commitment to extinction. Commitment denotes the mathematical point past which no return is possible. Further, the point of commitment can be deduced only in retrospect.
Issues of human sustainability no longer enjoy the luxury of theory. Partnering with academia would likely create a hopeless entanglement of disagreement, most of it based in minutiae. A degrading humanity needs answers–NOW.
Noēsis is fact-based. Far from ignoring considered debate, we welcome any material fact that would alter our conclusions. We rely on what we can demonstrate to be true, or that which stands directly to reason.
We will partner with any effort at human sustainability. We will concede to material fact, and we will alter our stated ideology accordingly. What we cannot do is to engage in bickering with academic institutions over minutiae. Academic institutions are vehicles of teaching, not of coordinating worldwide influence.
Noēsis cannot submit our conclusions for academic scrutiny. But we WILL participate in any meaningful debate where critical thinking demands and receives ours and others’ concession to material fact.
This question points to a misunderstanding that Noēsis is all too glad to clear up.
In the last 10,000 years, since mankind ended its migratory journey from Central Africa to all points of the globe, the stationary cultures that formed eventually took up acquisitive behavior. These new dynamics of self-interest run biologically counter to the deepest of human longings for collaboration and affiliation. The class-based meritocracy that forms from acquisitive behavior – greater and lesser beings – derailed the human experience. No human culture ever survived it, and no culture ever WILL survive it.
Human failure is not a situational phenomenon. Human failure is a study in eerie precision. Precision reveals a mathematical constant. Humanity is acting out a failed play. The actors in our history books are variable, but their failures are constant.
Quantifying the evolutionary influence upon illogical human behavior has infinite value. Analyzing the situations that flow from these behaviors has no value whatsoever.
Without understanding, The Human Injury, the past autopsies of stationary human cultures foretell the future with precision:
- Resentment**
- Vengeance
- Insurgency
- Collapse
**The only arrival point for a diminished human being.
Humanity will not stumble into sustainability. We will THINK our way to it, or we will never arrive.
Noēsis welcomes any considered opinion that would discount any of the following macro-humanist observations at the heart of our efforts.
Consider:
“Innumerable compulsions and impulses still alive inside all modern humans activate many times faster than the thinking brain. They cannot view their misaligned behaviors. They misinterpret modern threats. They place humans into conflict, where we remain.”
“The point of injury to the developing human psyche is precisely knowable. It took place when the collaborative and affiliative human brain took up clinically unnatural behavior associated with acquisitive economic models.”
“Humans are not born violent or cruel. Both of these maladies are symptomatic of a collective psychic injury, first ignited when class-based meritocracy formed within the first stationary human cultures. Unnatural behavior then discouraged natural human longings. Resentment intruded upon the human experience for the first time.”
“The Human Condition is deteriorating. What is not recognized, quantified and altered must and will resolve chaotically. Humans will IN FACT perish chaotically by their unwillingness to absorb now-available evolutionary data. That described eventuality is unnecessary. What need not occur, will occur by human inaction.”
“The human mind chooses what is logical in its present moment, or it cannot survive. Illogical behavior of any kind, therefore, is not a choice. It springs from primitive influence.”
“Human sustainability will require that humans fearlessly view and define their evolutionary prison, or we will perish in that very prison we did not define.”
“Humans have monetized perpetual conflict. To be clear, the only known destroyer of human interaction is also what feeds our families. Unwinding a killer that we never intended to create requires first that we forgive ourselves.”
“Psychic injury ALONE is at the heart of all human dysfunction. We are not flawed. We are broken, injured and frightened.”
“Noēsis will seek consensus among all human beings on Earth, that we have arrived to our present-day existential crisis together, as equal and like beings. We are a species in crisis.”
“The future of Mankind is not in any way knowable, but Mankind’s past is fully knowable. Hope and remedy for modern humanity requires that we KNOW ourselves as a species. Self-discovery is now possible for the first time.”
“Modern humanity chooses escapist behavior and denial to assuage the pain of its current degradation. Our ancient ancestors used negative information to survive. It kept them alive! Modern humankind must summon the courage to view ourselves. We will do so and survive. Or we will not and perish. We have a choice.”
“The light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long. Modern humans are rapidly accelerating into a curve, riding together in an ancient vehicle that’s ill-equipped to navigate the approaching curve. We cannot avoid the curve. We CAN properly equip the vehicle.”
“Advances in Cosmology and Astronomy show the human species to be among the most rare and unique species in the galaxy. Humans greatly value rarity, even as we discount our OWN rarity. Human cosmic rarity must be understood in any quest for human sustainability.”
“Humans cannot unite politically, religiously or culturally. Noēsis will not pursue the impossible. We will pursue what IS possible, namely, uniting all humans under the banner of species’ self-preservation. It will and must unfold over decades.”
“Human history books are vehicles of description. We must alter them to also become vehicles of analysis, to isolate and quantify the evolutionary influences that invariably combine to defeat all human interaction with eerie precision.”
“Human beings share the same place of origin. There is no longer conjecture on this matter. Humans are genetically linked to essentially 100%. No past human culture had knowledge of the FACT that humans in conflict is unnatural. No past human culture knew that we evolved on this Earth, that we were in conflict with, or that those we enslaved were our clinical brothers and sisters.”
“THERE IS NO BLAME. THERE IS NO JUDGMENT. THERE IS ONLY UNDERSTANDING. Humans will throw down their swords, or we will destroy ourselves.”
“The educational initiatives that must unfold for human self-discovery seek a slow and steady progression over decades. There will not and cannot be an interruption of currently deployed human models. Noēsis exhorts all of humanity to CARRY ON, with no threat whatsoever to current models. It will require decades to unwind what it took 10,000 years to create.”
