How is it that a natural animal comes to perform unnatural acts? And how is it that one species of all the species on Earth is culpable? These are questions that present themselves to me in the solitude of my hermitage. This tapping in the early morning is the way in which I turn them over in my mouth, without ever actually swallowing them or spitting them out.

The public pronouncement is that humans are responsible for the warming of the planet Earth. The human species is just one species that has evolved since the origin of species, since the beginning of the process of speciation. Humans are not responsible for evolution, they are, rather, a product of it. Isn't the whole process natural? Aren't humans just as natural as they can be?

As Science Man tells the story, humans are natural creatures and every act that a human performs is a natural act. The body of Science Man's "nature" is a corporate body; nature is the inferentially largest organism. The organism is a conceptual structure that evolves over time, a structure that maintains itself in opposition to the forces of disorganization. There is no crime or punishment here; there is no morality, no responsibility, no drama.

Unfortunately, or, fortunately, depending on guilt or innocence, the human organism finds itself plugged into an unnatural machine called language. The drama is artifice an artificial representation of natural evolution, starring the human species. At some point in the time-line of natural evolution, one conceptual organism, fell into history, into a body of metaphors. Metaphors are unnatural.

The human experience is partially unnatural; guilt and innocence are artifical constructs and so the guilty party is also artifical. The artifice does not evolve from the natural body, images do not evolve from concepts, rather, in the case of humans, the natural and the artifical constitute one corporate body, a "genuine two-in-one." The animal is human when it incorporates metaphor.
