R-I-G-H-T.... Behaviors are 'not natural'.... Well they are not. You cannot put them under a microscope. You cannot touch them. They simply do not exist in nature. Instead, they “exist” as expression OF natural things like lions, deer and humans. ONLY by observing nature can we observe behavior. Bodies are natural, behaviors are not. So, I guess all those observations of animal behaviors since the dawn of history are pretty pointless... Well, firstly, you ought to stop all this friggin’ ‘guessing’ and start thinking for a friggin’ change. Secondly, the observation of behavior is not pointless. It is simply an impossibility unless one observes it through nature. This is obvious and it is necessary that you start thinking in this manner to be free of your blindness concerning what you are in nature. Discover that, then you will easily find who you are. behaviors are 'not natural'. Lions don't naturally hunt. Deer don't naturally run… “Naturally” is an adverb modifying the verbs “hunt” and “run.” What does this tell you? They tell you these behaviors don’t exist in thin air! They are expressions of physical nature. We can observe them to see if they correspond with the nature. Hunting may well correspond with a Lion’s nature. But if the Lion should hunt its offspring it is acting contrary to its nature, to its own biological identity in nature. Lions are dumb animals. They have an excuse for such ignorant behavior. Yet it is humans that murder their own children by the tens of millions. See what I mean about your fantasy existence wherein facts and reality don't matter? Uh… nope.
