We Don’t Need No Education

Article January 23, 2026

The foundation of this paper is the premise that mankind is a result of evolution. From this requirement, I conclude that every property of people must be generated by development. Here I justify that some social behavior must be innate. Education is not necessary to explain it. Of course, I can not prove that humans are generated by evolution.

Nature Versus Nurture

Article January 23, 2026

In the first chapter, titled “Genes or Environment”, I explore the question of whether the environment can influence certain human traits. I demonstrate that two common arguments put forward by sociologists and psychologists are flawed. The second chapter, titled “Sociology and Psycholo gy are Not Sciences”, claims that neither sociology nor psychology is qualified for true sciences. I attempt to justify this. I also discuss the question of why homosexuals exist at all, even though they do not reproduce.

From Booze to Beechnuts

Article January 23, 2026

The foundation of this paper is the generation of all life by evolution. By this assumption, ‘everything’ has to be compatible with Darwin’s theory. I discuss some issues that concern animate beings. I ask some rhetorical questions. Answers are provided by speculations. I present arguments for an evolution and general thoughts. I show that some properties of animate beings are compatible with an evolution. The arguments except those in the chapter ‘Homosexuality’ are ideas of mine. All points only are personal views.
