The life-type which produced us might be considered a success. Some
considerable number of species have honed survival strategies that
preserved the lineage for countless generations. Thus, when a creature
finally hoved into view - us - that is capable of delineating the
entire life-process and the context in which it operates we might
expect this creature to fashion an existence that transcends the
relentless application of learned or ingrained behaviour - e.g. the
learned or ingrained utilisation of particular sources of nourishment
- that characterises all other creatures.
Why - in parenthesis - should we expect this? Because the skills
fashioned by nature - the speed, strength, ferocity, hearing, seeing
etc...all of them based entirely on a chemical arrangement - are all
somewhere in nature used to the full. The transfer or the utilisation
of energy in, say, the cheetah or the eagle or the rhinocerous or the
polar bear cannot be bested. So, if we possess the intelligence to
construct a society that manages, or decreases as much as possible,
the perils of existence we will eventually utilize that intelligence.
