His reasons for being

When we act in one way or another, it seems to us most of the time that it goes without saying. We are conditioned by our education, immersed in a context in which everyone respects certain standards, and as long as we conform to the patterns of ambient behaviour, we have the feeling of acting normally, of being in our right, of not being able to do otherwise.

It is not easy to take the necessary step back to question our usual behaviour. You have to learn to be wary of traditions, dare think differently, get rid of the fear of not doing as others do. Perhaps we even have to counter certain fundamental impulses, inscribed in our psychic programming to ensure that we respect the rituels of a group.

The laws of evolution have necessarily led animals to develop behavioural automatisms that ensure group cohesion and imitation of others. This as any other function useful for the survival of the species. We have been able to preserve in the depths of our psyches these fundamental reflexes, although covered by free will and the ability to distance oneself. At a time when we are opposed to group behaviour, unconscious anxieties can arise, which explain the surprising difficulty that most individuals face in singularizing themselves.

Yet it is behind this bulwark that we must seek the possible awareness of social errors. It is possible that the ecological disaster takes root in a number of tendencies and conduct that are contrary to nature, and even contrary to our own nature. Under the cozy coat of conformism can hide all kinds of harmful habits, whose consequences we do not see on the environment, nor on ourselves. Who seem indispensable to our happiness as they sow the seed of suffering and disorder.

A sage heuristic then consists in reviewing all the behaviors, even the least suspicious, and questioning us about their real raison d’être. Also asking us about the importance and frequency they have taken in everyday life. To look more closely at the mechanisms that ensure its contagion with emerging countries. The novelty of a situation makes it ever easier to identify the causes of disorder, drift, or degeneration.

A vast program that will probably give much more grain to human ecogenetics than its pioneers can imagine, but that it is time to start very seriously…
