“Essentially, what has happened is that humans have become so habituated to living in Plato’s dark cave of denial that when finally given the means to exit the cave and stand in the warm, healing sunshine of self-understanding,”
Jeremy Griffith, FREEDOM: The End Of The Human Condition

Jeremy Griffith
“The playwright George Bernard Shaw also warned of how difficult it is to introduce a new paradigm of thinking — especially one that dares to confront the historically unbearably confronting and off-limits subject of the human condition — when he said that ‘All great truths begin as blasphemies’ (Annajanska, 1919).”
Jeremy Griffith, The Interview: How We Can Finally End All the Turmoil & Suffering in the World!

Jeremy Griffith
“We humans don’t suffer from a genetic-opportunism-driven ‘animal condition’, but a conscious-mind-based, psychologically troubled HUMAN CONDITION.”
Jeremy Griffith, FREEDOM: The End of the Human Condition

Jeremy Griffith
“The human condition is the immensely mentally insecure and psychologically distressed state that all humans have suffered from as a result of a clash between our species’ original non-understanding, dictatorial, instinctive orientations to the world, and our newer fully conscious mind that needs to understand the world to operate.”
Jeremy Griffith, The Human Condition: What exactly is it, what caused it, and how the human race has finally liberated itself from the horror of it.

Jeremy Griffith
“We humans have cooperative, selfless and loving moral instincts, the voice or expression of which we call our conscience—which is the complete opposite of competitive, selfish and aggressive instincts. As Charles Darwin said, "The moral sense… affords the best and highest distinction between man and the lower animals.”
Jeremy Griffith, FREEDOM: The End of the Human Condition
