The New Universe Evolutionary Worldview is sometimes called humanity's 2nd Enlightenment era. For perspective, the 1st Enlightenment (18th-century Europe and America) is estimated to have been launched by approximately 1,000 advanced minds. These minds held and propagated the enlightenment ideas with only an estimated 10 individuals willing to finance the spread of these new ideas.
A principal characteristic of human life is that it develops into biography. In that sense, humans do not want their values in nature, any more than they want other goods in life, to come seriatum, like beads on a string -intrinsic goods without meaningful interconnection. Humans want a storied residence in nature where the passage of time integrates past, present, and future in a meaningful career.... The evolutionary epic... Is now consummated in environmental ethics.
