This chapter explores the philosophical evolution of human nature from Descartes to Darwin, arguing against the reductionist perspectives of transhumanism. It emphasizes the importance of aligning desires with purposeful goals to achieve true fulfillment, while addressing existential angst from a life devoid of meaning. The discussion culminates in the assertion that divine authority, exemplified through Christ, serves as the source of healing and ultimate purpose for humanity.
