1. "Man is not a 'fixed and limited animal whose nature is absolutely constant'. He changed drastically when he developed 'divided consciousness' to cope with complexities of civilisation, and has been changing steadily ever since.

This has plainly been a retrogressive step; the evolutionary urge has been defeating its own purpose."
