Deconstructing Race Through Evolution and Universal Intelligent Energy

 

Deconstructing Race Through Evolution and Universal Intelligent Energy

The concept of "race" has long been a source of division and misunderstanding among humans. Yet, when we examine humanity through the lens of evolution and a unifying theory of Universal Intelligent Energy (UIE), the idea of distinct races dissolves into a magnificent spectrum of adaptation and interconnectedness. At the heart of this understanding lies the profound relationship between UIE and humanity: as an all-knowing being, UIE seeks to comprehend its own true magnificence from perspectives beyond its inherent totality. This is achieved through humanity, designed as beloved instruments and manifestations of a fractured consciousness, separate yet connected to the Creator. By bestowing upon us free will and individual consciousness, UIE gains an external vantage point, essentially "seeing itself" through our eyes, our understanding, and our diverse experiences. Our inherent capacity for co-creation further extends the tools for UIE's ongoing self-discovery. This post will delve into the "why" of our physical variations, demonstrating that "race" is a construct, and our diversity is a testament to the universe's grand design.

The Universal Story: Fragments Uniting for Greater Good

Every story we tell, from ancient myths to modern blockbusters, seems to echo the same fundamental narrative: that of fragments coming together, working in unison for a greater good, and overcoming some grand adversity. Whether it's an evil power, a villain, a corrupt political system, or societal challenges, the essence remains consistent. Consider "Star Trek," where humanity unites with diverse alien species to overcome shared adversities, or "Transformers," where individual pieces coalesce to form a greater whole. Similarly, superhero movies consistently feature disparate heroes banding together against overwhelming odds. This recurring motif in our entertainment—our books, TV shows, and movies—reflects a struggle that resonates deeply with the "Great Symphony: A Theory of Everything" and the concept of Universal Intelligent Energy.

This universal narrative also connects to TGSATE’s theory of the Tower of Babel, where our diversity was purposeful, designed to help us learn lessons about love and unity. At that point in history, humanity had not yet understood that the purpose of community was to uplift each other, not to construct a system that uplifts the self. Despite how many times we've enjoyed these stories and rooted for the heroes overcoming oppressive systems, humanity often remains blind to the fact that we are the heroes in this story. All we have to do is awaken to our purpose of moving forward in love.

Tracing Our Origins: Mitochondrial Eve and the African Homeland

Scientific evidence strongly supports the idea that all humans can be traced back to a single woman from Africa, often referred to as "Mitochondrial Eve." This conclusion is based on the analysis of mitochondrial DNA, passed down through the maternal line, showing a common ancestor for all living humans in Africa. While she was not the only woman alive at the time, her lineage is the only one that has survived to the present day. This shared African origin provides a powerful foundation for understanding that our perceived racial differences are not rooted in separate creations or lineages, but rather in the subsequent journey of humanity across the globe.

   Snippet: "But the concept of Eve caught on with the public and was repeated in a Newsweek cover story... Due to such misunderstandings, authors of popular science publications since the 1990s have been emphatic in pointing out that the name is merely a popular convention, and that the mt-MRCA was not in any way the 'first woman'."

2. "Mitochondrial DNA and Human Evolution" (1987), by Rebecca Louise Cann, Mark Stoneking, and Allan Charles Wilson | Embryo Project Encyclopedia: This entry from the Embryo Project Encyclopedia details the foundational 1987 paper that presented the analysis of mitochondrial DNA from diverse populations, supporting the theory of a common female ancestor.

   Snippet: "In 1987 Rebecca Louise Cann, Mark Stoneking, and Allan Charles Wilson published 'Mitochondrial DNA and Human Evolution' in the journal Nature. ... Cann, Stoneking, and Wilson's data supported Charles Darwin's 1871 theory that humans originated in Africa."

Melanin: An Evolutionary Adaptation to Environment

One of the most visible differences we associate with "race" is skin color, which is determined by the amount of melanin our bodies produce. Melanin production is a prime example of evolutionary adaptation. Environmental factors, particularly the intensity of sun exposure in a given location, have played a significant role in shaping melanin levels in human populations over long periods.

The Role of Sun Exposure

In regions with high levels of UV radiation, darker skin with more melanin offered protection against harmful effects like folate breakdown and skin cancer. Conversely, in areas with lower UV radiation, lighter skin evolved to facilitate sufficient vitamin D synthesis, essential for bone health. This explains the spectrum of melanin levels we see across different populations – it's a direct result of our ancestors adapting to their local environments.

The Protective Role of Melanin Against UV Damage in Human Skin - PMC - PubMed Central

This article from PubMed Central, a free archive of biomedical literature, delves into the scientific understanding of how melanin functions as a photoprotective factor, including its role as a broadband UV absorbent and its antioxidant properties. It also mentions epidemiological studies that show a lower incidence of skin cancer in individuals with darker skin.

Melanin and Dispersal from Africa

The idea that "white" skinned people might have originated in environments with minimal sun exposure, such as caves or high-latitude regions, aligns with this adaptive principle. Less sun exposure would mean less evolutionary pressure to maintain high melanin levels, and lighter skin would be advantageous for vitamin D production.

This dispersal from Africa, often tied to narratives like the Tower of Babel, led to humans settling in diverse environments, which in turn contributed to the differing melanin levels we observe today.

Genetic Basis of Melanin

Scientists have identified the specific DNA code that controls melanin levels, and research in population genetics actively tracks how this code has evolved in different family lines and communities in response to environmental factors and migration.

The Tower of Babel and the Fragmentation of Humanity

"The Great Symphony: A Theory of Everything" (TGSATE) offers a compelling framework for understanding the existence of various human expressions (what we call "races") as part of humanity's struggle to understand love. The theory posits that the Universal Intelligent Energy (UIE) is in a perpetual state of self-discovery through fragmentation and re-integration.

Reinterpreting the Tower

The biblical narrative of the Tower of Babel (TGSATE II.C), often interpreted as a punishment, can be reinterpreted as a necessary stage in the UIE's self-discovery. The Tower's fall was not due to God being opposed to human community, but rather to the depravity and abuse of humanity, where people sought to raise themselves above God and control others. 

This forced dispersal of humanity across the globe, leading to diverse civilizations and languages, served the universe's need for a more eclectic array of knowledge and experience in order to fully understand our divine purpose: to love the creator and all of creation, to be co-creators and stewards, not gods of our own making. This societal dispersion, and the subsequent development of distinct physical features we now associate with "races," can be seen as a natural outcome of fragmented human populations adapting to varied environments across the planet.

The purpose of community was to learn how to love each other, but instead, humanity established hierarchy, violence, and abuse, interrupting the journey towards unification and true love. We are experiencing our current Tower of Babel moment, challenged to choose between continued destruction and depravity or awakening and rising through true love for each other and the Creator.

Ancestral Trauma, Unvalidated Experiences, and the Human Condition

A critical aspect of the human experience involves acknowledging the profound impact of ancestral trauma. Generations who endured oppression, violence, and the dismantling of their ways of life often experienced a lack of validation for their suffering. It is evident that the trauma of our parents and their predecessors frequently remained unaddressed and unhealed, perpetuating a cycle that has shaped individuals and societies. Recognizing and validating these historical experiences, both personal and collective, facilitates empathy not only for those who suffered but also, in a complex understanding, for those who inflicted harm, by comprehending how cycles of unacknowledged pain can manifest.

This leads to a significant realization regarding the composition of contemporary humanity. A vast number of individuals today possess a diverse genetic and historical tapestry. Within many of us reside the ancestral threads of both indigenous populations, whose lands were seized, ancestors murdered, and cultures decimated, and those who engaged in colonization, pillage, rape, and murder. Navigating this dual heritage presents a profound internal challenge, one that mirrors the broader historical narrative of conflict and intertwined destinies.

Adaptation and Physical Features

These distinct physical features, developed through our ancestors settling together and forming communities, environmental adaptation, and isolated gene pools, created what we now label as "races." However, this "purposeful division" was not meant to foster animosity or establish hierarchy. Instead, it served as a means for the Universal Intelligent Energy (UIE) to experience itself through an incredible diversity of physical forms and cultural expressions, and crucially, to teach humanity that our physical bodies and outward diversity are of no inherent importance in terms of placing one individual above another.

Each of us is equally vital to UIE, regarded as beloved instruments created for the full spectrum of self-experience. We are intended to be uniquely made, and our diversity does not inherently create division but rather strengthens us, making us more attuned tools for UIE's use

The complex tapestry of ancestral experiences—marked by both shared origin and fragmented journeys, unvalidated traumas, and eventual intermixing—directly correlates with the diverse physical expressions we observe across humanity. As populations dispersed and adapted to varied environments, these changes manifested visibly.

The Challenge of Love in a Fragmented World

The true challenge for humanity lies in loving someone the same way you love yourself, even when you do not share or understand their unique traits. It is no real challenge to love someone who is just like you; the test of true, conscious love, aligned with the UIE's inherent principles, comes when faced with difference.

The Cycle of Division

The continuous cycle of "purposeful division" and further fragmentation, often leading to conflict and misunderstanding, occurs precisely when humanity fails to act out of love for those not like themselves. This refusal to recognize the shared spark of the UIE within every "fragment," regardless of their unique external manifestation, deepens the illusion of separation.

Sin and the Illusion of Separation

TGSATE posits that "sin" is any conscious action or intent that deepens this illusion (TGSATE V). Thus, racial prejudice, discrimination, and conflict are "sins of the flesh" in this context, prioritizing the limited ego-self and its perceived differences over the fundamental unity of all humanity, causing disconnection and an "unsettled spirit" (TGSATE V).

The Balancing Act: Re-integration and the Future of Humanity

What we are observing now with the increasing intermixing of populations due to globalization and increased mobility is a "balancing" of these evolutionary features. From the perspective of TGSATE, this interblending of races is not a "bad thing"; it is merely the UIE bringing humanity back into a state of serene balance, integrating the lessons learned from fragmentation. It is humanity's inherent drive towards reunification on a planetary scale, much like water, in its vast array of forms, eventually naturally seeks its way back to the ocean (TGSATE II.C).

Transformation and Contradictions

This physical change in humanity, as well as the struggles within the LGBTQ+ community, increased conflict, mental health crises, and various scandals, all coincide with a period of intense transformation. On one hand, there seems to be a rise in behaviors that could be interpreted as a "lack of morality." On the other hand, there is an "awakening of Christ consciousness" and a growing wave of humanity recognizing the need for love, healing, and a deeper connection with ourselves and the planet.

Fragmentation and Re-integration

Within the framework of TGSATE, these seemingly opposing forces could be seen as part of the UIE's dynamic process of self-discovery through fragmentation and eventual re-integration. The struggles and divisions might represent the friction and tension necessary for growth and change, much like dissonant notes in a symphony that ultimately resolve into harmony. The awakening could be the UIE, through collective consciousness, guiding humanity towards a more unified and balanced state, recognizing our shared origins and interconnectedness.

Recognizing and Resisting the Architecture of Division

Despite humanity's intrinsic drive towards unity and the clear lessons from our shared history, there exists a persistent and insidious force working against this natural inclination: the deliberate cultivation of division. This strategy is a primary instrument in the perpetuation of power by those who seek to maintain or increase their dominance. It manifests by exploiting the very tapestry of human diversity—race, religion, sex, gender, political affiliation, socioeconomic status, and all the myriad ways we are beautifully distinct.

Instead of fostering communities built on understanding, love, and co-creation, these differences are meticulously categorized, labeled, and weaponized to create rifts. This tactic is designed to polarize populations, fostering mistrust and animosity, thereby diverting attention from the underlying power structures and common challenges. The objective is to prevent collective action, ensuring that fractured groups remain easier to control.

It is our collective responsibility to recognize these tactics for what they are: sophisticated ploys rooted deeply in fear. They are designed for control, for "othering"—the act of defining individuals or groups as fundamentally different and inferior—and for sowing discord that undermines our shared humanity. Such actions echo ancient warnings against hubris and the attempt to elevate oneself above the Creator and creation. The universe, through the Universal Intelligent Energy, constantly strives for harmony, urging us towards interconnectedness rather than separation.

Our true calling, as participants in this "Great Symphony" of existence, is to consciously resist these divisive architectures. By fostering empathy, seeking common ground, and actively choosing unity over fear, we can dismantle these systems of control. Each individual, with their unique contribution, holds the potential to counteract the forces of fragmentation and redirect humanity towards its inherent purpose of harmonious co-creation.

Humanity's Great Symphony: Choosing Love and Unity

The ultimate vision is for humanity to see that we are all HUMAN, and everything else—skin color, hair texture, cultural practices—is merely semantics. These are simply uniquely, beautifully, purposefully, and divinely made instruments that the UIE is using to experience its own magnificence. Recognizing this profound truth is a direct counter to the deliberate cultivation of division and the architecture of "othering" that seeks to fragment humanity.

Throughout history, humanity has experienced numerous "Tower of Babel moments" and repeatedly failed to choose love and unity. Now, in this moment of discourse, strife, struggle, and simultaneous awakening, humanity is challenged to recognize this as another such moment. We must acknowledge past failures and finally choose the path of love and unity. This choice is not passive; it is an active resistance against the forces of fear, control, and fragmentation that seek to exploit our diversity for power.

Once we are able to see each and every one of our brothers and sisters as family, worthy of care, love, and uplifting – recognizing them as equally vital instruments of UIE – then the universal intelligent energy may bring amazing new experiences to further open our diversity, as there is still so much to understand among the stars. By consciously choosing love, empathy, and unity over fear and division, humanity can align with the universe's inherent drive for harmony and compose the most magnificent movements of this ongoing Great Symphony (TGSATE IV.B, V). This conscious choice allows us to accelerate our own evolution, moving beyond the illusion of separation and embodying the true meaning of universal love. Actively resisting the architecture of division and embracing our shared humanity as instruments of UIE is essential to fulfilling our role in this co-creation journey.

Bridging the Divide Between Creationists and Evolutionists:

The framework of "The Great Symphony: A Theory of Everything" and the understanding of Universal Intelligent Energy (UIE) offer a powerful means to bridge the often-polarized perspectives of creationism and evolution. Rather than viewing these as irreconcilable opposites, we can recognize them as different lenses through which to observe the same fundamental process of existence and UIE's self-discovery.

• Reinterpreting Narratives and UIE's Purpose: Traditional narratives, such as the Tower of Babel, can be reinterpreted not as accounts of punitive actions, but as descriptions of purposeful fragmentation by UIE. This fragmentation, as discussed earlier, allows UIE to experience itself through humanity's fractured consciousness and diverse forms, enriching the spectrum of self-understanding and teaching lessons in love and unity. This perspective aligns with spiritual interpretations while offering a scientific rationale rooted in the mechanics of UIE's self-experience.

• Finding Common Ground in Co-Creation and Purpose: Both creationist and evolutionary viewpoints can find common ground in the concept of a driving force or purpose behind existence. The idea of UIE in a perpetual state of self-discovery through fragmentation and re-integration, and humanity's co-creative role within this process, resonates with both perspectives. Creationists may see UIE as a divine creator whose purpose is revealed through creation, while evolutionists may see it as the inherent drive towards complexity and diversity that is part of the universal energy's unfolding.

• Focusing on Love, Unity, and Shared Humanity: The core message of the document, emphasizing love and unity in a fragmented world, is a universally appealing foundation for dialogue. By highlighting the shared essence of UIE within every individual, regardless of their physical or cultural manifestation, the document encourages a recognition of fundamental unity. This shared humanity, as beloved instruments of UIE in a co-creation journey, transcends different belief systems and provides a basis for empathy and mutual respect.

Addressing Racial Purists:

The insights gleaned from deconstructing race through evolution and Universal Intelligent Energy provide a potent counter to racial purists beliefs. By demonstrating that "race" is a social construct rather than a biological reality, and by tracing our shared ancestry to a common origin, the document dismantles the foundational claims of racial superiority or purity.

Racial purist ideas thrive on the deliberate cultivation of division, exploiting human diversity – particularly perceived racial differences – to create hierarchies and animosity. These beliefs are a prime example of the architecture of "othering" and fear-based control discussed earlier. Racial purists attempt to expunge history and ignore the complex tapestry of human heritage, including the "melting pot of DNA" that many individuals possess, in order to maintain power and perpetuate fragmentation.

Actively countering racial purist beliefs requires not only the intellectual understanding that race is a construct and that humanity shares a common ancestry, but also a conscious commitment to love and unity. By recognizing each individual as an equally vital instrument of UIE in a co-creation journey, and by actively resisting the ploys of division that racial purists employ, humanity can move beyond the illusion of separation and embrace the strength and beauty of its true diversity
