Because the neuromodulator activity in the limbic system of the lobster brain. Because, once again, because psychology is biology. The lobster can't do anything about that. The big dominant alpha lobster, if there is such a thing, is going to fight to try to maintain that position.

And so it dissolves. And we can make decisions. And that's the divine in us. That's the difference. And this is the essence of being fully human and fully alive. St. Irenaeus said, the glory of God is a man fully alive. What does it mean to be a man fully alive? It is managing your limbic system.

It is not deciding that your level of affect that you have today is going to actually be the determining factor in how you treat other people. It is actually getting beyond who you were as a person. It's deciding to worship even though you don't feel a single... milligram of faith on a particular day.

If you're purely limbic, there are lots and lots of people who make an absolutely logical decision to commit suicide. If they're purely limbic. However, the divine in us, the divine console that allows us to manage our ancestral, our less evolved selves. Default. Default selves. It's the bumper of tissue behind your forehead called the prefrontal cortex, which is the... what a miracle.

My dog Chucho can't do that. He can't time travel. He can't manage his emotions. The essence of being fully alive is doing exactly that. This is the message that we can give to all these young people today who are so desperate. They don't have to live like Jordan Peterson and Arthur Brooks. They don't have to go, you know, suffer through a PhD. They don't have to become behavioral scientists.

They have to learn to manage themselves. They have to put their prefrontal cortex in charge of their limbic systems. And that takes practice and that takes commitment and that takes good relationships that will actually bring that along. It's interesting because the best indicator of somebody being able to manage in a man, his limbic system, is a good partner.
