A Better Me a Better World

Despite unprecedented technological developments and material bounty, our nation and the rest of the world face ever-growing moral quandaries. We are still beset with continuous warfare and religious strife along with a litany of other past transgressions. These are all exaggerated by our population growth along with the growing complexity of life. In addition, our technological progress has created even more severe morality quandaries than our ancestors ever imagined.

Brilliant figures of the past espoused many, still admired, moral goals for better living. However, they are mostly rhetoric because they didn't provide a rational approach for achieving them. Thus, we are now saddled with a morality that couldn't even cope with a far simpler age.

Fortunately, an explosion of knowledge interrelating genetics, evolution, and human physiology has occurred in recent years that can be used to construct a more relevant moral code. One, based on reality, that can lead us to a more equitable and prosperous future.

A Better Me A Better World integrates these recent discoveries into a clearer image of reality than any of our revered philosophers could imagine based on their mystical conjectures.

Three valid purposes of life are derived from a careful examination of these new discoveries. They are survival, evolution (being the best we can be), and enjoyment. The acronym SEE encapsulates this finding.

Next, a physiological morality that guides all human behavior was found. It uses the classic pain-pleasure principle to guide personal behavior toward compliance with the three purposes of life.

Next, it was found that the body has always used servo controls to guide all body functions. Servo means using continuous feedback to help control all body actions. The concept was first instituted by man in WWII, being used to guide missiles against targets. Servos are universally applicable. For example, applying them to all laws enacted would eliminate all the out-of-control outcomes we now routinely accept.

We will dramatically improve ourselves and the world around us by adopting moral guidelines based on these principles. We are truly living in a time of discovery if we will only open our eyes and SEE.
