Well said. And Freud, Nietzsche , Jaynes are never passe
I only diverge slightly with respect to human nature being the need to isolate one self from natural threats. I apologize if I read more into that than you intended.
I see it more a behavioral disorder, laziness (a legitimate survival strategy when sufficiently opposed) if you will? Reinforced by self-domestication. The struggle is important unless you want 'Veal". It is intended. Comfort and safety do activate the reward center same as opiates.
Cheers,
Hippea

Where there is life, there is competition for resources. Survive long enough to pass on your genes. The rest is religion.
