Biological Enlightenment

First off, this is not pick on George Lakoff day because I love his Political Mind like a brother. BUT, yes, you knew that was coming, so let me change it right now AND, yes, much of the proletariat-patriarchal Enlightenment Era of the 1700s was weighted toward Transcendence, so, yes, a tendency toward disembodied, AND YET, if we look toward the more bourgeois-matriarchal sector, especially all those disenfranchised women birthin' babies, but also other disadvantaged perspectives of Enlightenment, these were very much about natural, healthy regenerative richness, perhaps erotic wonder and climatic awe, (remember Walt Whitman?) rather than some spiritual experience more high-brow agapic, yet no less, perhaps even rather more, integrative flow-abundant embodied co-mentored and empathically communicated reverent and sacred enlightenment, however democratically common as our universal experience of diastatic enlightenment nurtured within a matriarchal integrative womb rather than embryonically formed from a patriarchal transcendent *****. I don't think red-neck conservative Republicans are any less interested in, or committed to, or capable of, healthy enlightening polypathic experience than are progressive Ivy League academic Democrats, although I do think that those who have healthier nurtured integrative communication between LeftYang and RightYin hemispheres are better at finding the WinWin cooperatively enlightening opportunities while avoiding unnecessary disembodied pitfalls of WinLose choices suboptimizing regenerative potential to experience more positive enlightenment-flow power rather than more cognitive-affective dissonance, mistrusting antipathies. These tend to be those for whom LeftBrain enculturation dominance, supremacy, has been less kind than RightBrain's matriarchal nurturance.
