JONATHAN LEAVES THE INTELLECTUAL vs. SOCIAL DEBATE
AND MUDDIES SOCIAL vs. BIOLOGICAL
Hi all,
We all know what the biological level includes, right?
Well what about this:
Last night the BBC World Service reported the case of a human boy found
living among monkeys in Uganda - a real-life Tarzan. He was apparently
abandoned as a toddler and only found again 2 years later.
Not surprisingly, the child couldn't talk, but what really struck me was
that the child couldn't WALK either. This wasn't a physical problem,
since he quickly learned to walk after his rescue. It suggests to me
that the SOCIAL level has something to do with even the very basic
"biological" function of walking. and the whole distinction between
social and biological is blurred.
Comments?
