Excerpt from Human Submission
This is a beautiful summary of that ignoble resignation and acceptance which is all that religion can offer us against the blows of nature. Coerce your mind and subdue your insight, ignore realities and inwardly assert that the storms of evil beating down man are mysterious expressions of Divine Love.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the concept of human submission, a rarely explored yet fundamental principle in the history of humankind. The author argues that submission, not just to authority but also to the very idea of servitude, has been the defining force shaping human society for millennia. Drawing parallels between human behavior and the slave-making instincts of certain ant species, the book demonstrates how this ingrained tendency to submit has led to the perpetuation of social hierarchies and the suppression of intellectual and moral progress. The author critiques the dominant social structures, including religion, philosophy, and ethics, which he asserts have been built upon and reinforced by this principle of submission. He argues that these structures have historically served to justify and maintain the dominance of the powerful over the weak, resulting in widespread exploitation and oppression. The book offers a powerful and provocative analysis of the deep-seated patterns of human submission and their profound impact on the course of history, challenging readers to re-examine their own assumptions about social order and individual responsibility. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
