Caesar: In your view or mine?
MacDonald: Violence prolongs hate. Hate prolongs violence. By what right are you spilling blood?
Caesar: By the slave's right to punish his persecutors.
MacDonald: Caesar, I, a descendant of slaves, am asking you to show humanity.
Caesar: But I was not born human.

Human evolution
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Human evolution is the evolutionary process that led to the emergence of anatomically modern humans, beginning with the evolutionary history of primates – in particular genus Homo – and leading to the emergence of Homo sapiens as a distinct species of the hominid family, the great apes. This process involved the gradual development of traits such as human bipedalism and language, as well as interbreeding with other hominins, which indicate that human evolution was not linear but a web.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary_origin_of_religions
Evolutionary origin of religions
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The emergence of religious behavior by the Neolithic period has been discussed in terms of evolutionary psychology, the origin of language and mythology, cross-cultural comparison of the anthropology of religion, as well as evidence for spirituality or cultic behavior in the Upper Paleolithic, and similarities in great ape behavior.
Relevant prerequisites for human religion
Increased brain size
In this set of theories, the religious mind is one consequence of a brain that is large enough to formulate religious and philosophical ideas. During human evolution, the hominid brain tripled in size, peaking 500,000 years ago. Much of the brain's expansion took place in the neocortex. The cerebral neocortex is presumed to be responsible for the neuronal computations underlying complex phenomena such as perception, thought, language, attention, episodic memory and voluntary movement. According to Dunbar's theory, the relative neocortex size of any species correlates with the level of social complexity of the particular species. The neocortex size correlates with a number of social variables that include social group size and complexity of mating behaviors. In chimpanzees the neocortex occupies 50% of the brain, whereas in modern humans it occupies 80% of the brain.
Robin Dunbar argues that the critical event in the evolution of the neocortex took place at the speciation of archaic homo sapiens about 500,000 years ago. His study indicates that only after the speciation event is the neocortex large enough to process complex social phenomena such as language and religion. The study is based on a regression analysis of neocortex size plotted against a number of social behaviors of living and extinct hominids.
Stephen Jay Gould suggests that religion may have grown out of evolutionary changes which favored larger brains as a means of cementing group coherence among savannah hunters, after that larger brain enabled reflection on the inevitability of personal mortality.

Denial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Denial, in ordinary English usage, is asserting that a statement or allegation is not true. The same word, and also abnegation (German: Verneinung), is used for a psychological defense mechanism postulated by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, in which a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence. An individual that exhibits such behaviour is described as a denialist or true believer. Denial also could mean denying the happening of an event or the reliability of information, which can lead to a feeling of aloofness and to the ignoring of possibly beneficial information.
The subject may use:
simple denial: deny the reality of the unpleasant fact altogether
minimisation: admit the fact but deny its seriousness (a combination of denial and rationalization)
projection: admit both the fact and seriousness but deny responsibility by blaming somebody or something else.
In psychoanalysis
The concept of denial is particularly important to the study of addiction.
The theory of denial was first researched seriously by Anna Freud. She classified denial as a mechanism of the immature mind, because it conflicts with the ability to learn from and cope with reality. Where denial occurs in mature minds, it is most often associated with death, dying and rape. More recent research has significantly expanded the scope and utility of the concept. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross used denial as the first of five stages in the psychology of a dying patient, and the idea has been extended to include the reactions of survivors to news of a death.
Many contemporary psychoanalysts treat denial as the first stage of a coping cycle. When an unwelcome change occurs, a trauma of some sort, the first impulse to disbelieve begins the process of coping.

Memorable quotes for
Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972)
Caesar: The King is dead. Long live the King! Tell me Breck, before you die - how do we differ from the dogs and cats that you and your kind used to love? Why did you turn us from pets into slaves?
Breck: Because your kind were once our ancestors. Because man was born of apes, and there's still an ape curled up inside of every man. You're the beast in us that we have to whip into submission. You're the savage that we need to shackle in chains. You taint us, Caesar. You poison our guts. When we hate you, we're hating the dark side of ourselves.

Encyclopaedia Britannica
James Tiptree, Jr.
AMERICAN AUTHOR
James Tiptree, Jr., pseudonym of Alice Bradley Sheldon, née Alice Hastings Bradley, also published under the pseudonym Raccoona Sheldon, (born August 24, 1915, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.—died May 19, 1987, McLean, Virginia), American science fiction author known for her disturbing short stories about love, death, gender, and human and alien nature.
When Alice Bradley was six years old, she and her parents traveled to the Belgian Congo (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo) on an expedition with a family friend, American naturalist Carl Akeley. Alice made two further trips to Africa as a child, in 1924–25 (which was also part of a trip around the world) and in 1931. Her mother, author Mary Hastings Bradley, wrote several books about their travels, including two children’s books that Alice illustrated, Alice in Jungleland (1927) and Alice in Elephantland (1929).
In 1934 Alice eloped with William Davey, a Princeton student she had met five days earlier. After an abortive attempt at college and a career as a painter, she divorced Davey in 1941 and returned to Chicago, where she was hired as the art critic of the Chicago Sun (later the Chicago Sun-Times). In 1942 she joined the Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps (later the Women’s Army Corps). From 1943 she worked at the Pentagon as an interpreter of aerial reconnaissance photographs.
After World War II ended in Europe, she was transferred in 1945 to a different unit and soon married her commanding officer, Colonel Huntington Sheldon. They left the army in 1946. From 1948 to 1952 they ran a chicken farm in Toms River, New Jersey. In 1952 they joined the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in Washington, D.C., where he was director of current intelligence and she again worked on photographic intelligence and studied political changes in Africa.
When Alice Sheldon left the CIA in 1955, she was unsure about her marriage and used her training in intelligence to disappear for a brief period. She remained separated from her husband for one year, and during that time she pursued an interest in the relationship of aesthetics to human vision. She received a bachelor’s degree from American University in Washington, D.C., in 1959 and then began graduate studies in experimental psychology at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. (Ph.D., 1967).
In 1967, while finishing her dissertation, Sheldon wrote several science fiction stories. Because she was embarking on a career as an academic, she submitted those stories to magazines under the pseudonym James Tiptree, Jr. (The name Tiptree came from a label on a brand of jam she saw at the grocery store.) Much to her surprise, she sold several of Tiptree’s stories.
The first story Tiptree published, “Birth of a Salesman” (1968), was characteristic of her early stories in that it was a humorous variation on a standard science fiction theme. Tiptree came into her own with the calmly apocalyptic “The Last Flight of Dr. Ain” (1969; revised 1974). A biologist in love with Earth and its natural beauty, Dr. Ain flies around the world deliberately spreading a virus that will wipe out humanity. In “The Girl Who Was Plugged In” (1973; winner of a Hugo Award for best novella), an ugly homeless girl in a media-saturated future is recruited to remotely control the empty body of a new celebrity. This prophetic story of celebrity worship, product placement, and global corporations is often cited as an early inspiration for cyberpunk. Tiptree’s skill at depicting alien psychology was shown in “Love Is the Plan the Plan Is Death” (1973; winner of a Nebula Award for best short story), which is told from the viewpoint of a giant alien arachnid.
Tiptree’s work took on a more feminist cast beginning in the early 1970s. In “The Women Men Don’t See” (1973), a plane carrying three Americans—a male federal agent and a mother and daughter—crashes in the Yucatán. An alien spacecraft also crashes nearby, and, despite the efforts of the man, the women choose to leave Earth—a planet where women do not thrive, only survive—with the aliens. Three male astronauts from the present day are transported to a future Earth where males have died out in “Houston, Houston, Do You Read?” (1976). The astronauts are emotionally and psychologically unprepared for a world where they have no meaning. “Houston” won a Nebula for best novella and shared the Hugo Award for best novella (with Spider Robinson’s “By Any Other Name”).
More than a mere pseudonym for Sheldon, Tiptree was almost a separate character, albeit one that drew extensively on Sheldon’s own experience. She felt that she needed to write more as herself, as the part of her that was not “Tiptree,” so she came up with another pseudonym, Raccoona Sheldon, whom she introduced to editors as an old friend of Tiptree. Raccoona Sheldon’s first stories were seen by some editors as light and trivial when compared with those of Tiptree. However, as Racoona, Alice wrote two of her most notable stories: “The Screwfly Solution” (1977; Nebula Award winner for best novelette), in which an alien influence that fuses the urges toward sex and violence causes men to kill all women and children, and “Your Faces, O My Sisters! Your Faces Filled of Light!” (1976), about a nameless young woman’s journey through a delusional world populated only by women.
Tiptree corresponded extensively with other authors and editors but jealously guarded “his” privacy. One of the details Tiptree did reveal was that his mother was an explorer from Chicago. When Mary Bradley died in 1976 and obituaries listed Alice Sheldon as Bradley’s only surviving family member, Tiptree’s true identity was exposed. Many in science fiction had accepted Tiptree as male because of “his” familiarity with such stereotypically masculine fields as the military and the intelligence service. That Tiptree was Alice Sheldon did much to overturn lazy assumptions within the genre about the difference between male and female writing. Sheldon, however, deeply felt the loss of her alter ego. Although she continued to publish as Tiptree, her later work lost some of its earlier complexity and vigour. Her Smoke Rose Up Forever (1990) is a collection of Tiptree’s and Racoona Sheldon’s most important short stories.
Sheldon had struggled with depression throughout her life. Early in the morning of May 19, 1987, she shot her ailing husband in the head as he slept and then shot herself. In 1991 American science fiction authors Pat Murphy and Karen Joy Fowler established the James Tiptree, Jr. Award for work that “expands or explores our understanding of gender.”

James Tiptree Jr.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alice Bradley Sheldon (August 24, 1915 – May 19, 1987) was an American science fiction author better known as James Tiptree Jr., a pen name she used from 1967 to her death. She was most notable for breaking down the barriers between writing perceived as inherently "male" or "female"—it was not publicly known until 1977 that James Tiptree Jr. was a woman.
In 1942 she joined the United States Army Air Forces and worked in the Army Air Forces photo-intelligence group. She later was promoted to major, a high rank for women at the time. In the army, she "felt she was among free women for the first time." In 1945 she married her second husband, Huntington D. Sheldon, at the close of the war on her assignment in Paris. She was discharged from the military in 1946, at which time she set up a small business in partnership with her husband. The same year her first story ("The Lucky Ones") was published in the November 16, 1946 issue of The New Yorker, and credited to "Alice Bradley" in the magazine itself. In 1952 she and her husband were invited to join the CIA, which she accepted.
