I thought this was beautiful. I do an analysis of the symbolic in nature and our perceptions and use of natural symbols in my book “The Textbook of the Universe: The Genetic Ascent to God” That sounds a bit like this. I tie it to the earliest religions as symbolic of the search for truth in the saga of life culminating in today’s sciences. I actually make a diagram of tree growing toward the sun in my book and define the symbolism of each aspect involved. It is a powerful symbol, basically sums up the entire impetus of life since the beginning. I recast evolution as primarily information-based or truth-based, and if you look at it this way it makes much more sense and we as white Europeans are quite definitely at the top — unequivocally the most advanced. If you define evolution materially, you will miss the whole picture, and not see any organisms as better than another, and even ridiculously define microbes, ants, or beetles as more successful, etc. (by that stupid definition, even ROCKS are more successful!–the litmus of life is INFORMATION, MEANING, TRUTH). Life itself is a tree growing toward the sun of truth.

Thank you very much for these translations, Greg! Faye is very Nietzschean in his thinking, and thus very inspiring. I hope some of his books will be translated into English soon (though not the Zionist one!).

“Today we need more than morality. We need hypermorality, i.e., the Nietzschean ethics of difficult times. When one defends one’s people, i.e., one’s own children, one defends the essential. Then one follows the rule of Agamemnon and Leonidas but also of Charles Martel: what prevails is the law of the sword, whose bronze or steel reflects the glare of the sun. The tree, the rocket, the sword: three vertical symbols thrust from the ground towards the light, from the Earth to the Sun, animated by sap, fire, and blood.”

Very, very profound, and truer words of such quality rarely grace the global output of truth-seeking writers. May the gods grant us victory.
