Why Adam and Eve Are Self Conscious
After adam and eve become self conscious, the first thing they do is clothe themselves. And to me, that's a mythological description of the emergence of culture as an intercession between the fundamental vulnerability and nakedness of the human form and the depredations of nature. Once he finds out, once god finds out that people have become self-conscious, like if you know that what that winter is lurking in the future,. For example, you're going to work. And animals don't work. They're just motivated to do whatever they do. But humans work. And that means they subvert their day to day motivations, their immediate motivations, for the purposes of future security.
