There are many beautiful holiday beaches in southern Japan. Tourists are like clouds in summer. However, since the 1990s, there have been frequent murders on these beaches. Most of the victims were bloodied and had comminuted fractures of their limbs, as if they had been attacked by sharks or crocodiles, and there were neither crocodiles nor sharks in this area. And even if there are sharks or crocodiles, they will not commit crimes on the beach far from the sea.
The police are puzzled by this.
1993 One afternoon in August, in a fishing village near Yokohama, Japan, an 8-year-old girl named Fangzi was picking up shells on the beach when she suddenly saw two spider-like animals flickering in front of her in the tide. She stepped forward curiously to find out. It turns out that a pair of giant man-eating crabs are laying eggs. This period is the most ferocious time to eat crabs. I saw a cancer holding up two big paws about 2 meters long and pouncing on Fangzi angrily. Scared, started running. However, cancer is catching up. Fang Zi was caught by the big claws of the cancer before running 20 meters, and was dragged into the sea by the cancer.
The scream attracted the fishermen nearby. They fought tenaciously against cancer until they broke their big paws and caught the dying Fang Zi. At this point, that was raw, bleeding, and soon died on the way to the hospital.
People have been afraid to swim in the sea since the killer crab was discovered. However, since then, many people on the Japanese coast have been dragged into the water by huge claws that suddenly protrude from the water and died while boating at sea. Man-eating crabs often attack Xiao Mu; The rower is on the boat. Man-eating crabs have eyes on long tentacles. They often hide at the bottom of the sea, and only put two tentacles out of the sea quietly. Once the small wooden boat was found, it sneaked under the small wooden boat, with its belly pressed against the bottom of the boat and its eight long legs tightly fastened to the hull. Attack suddenly at the first opportunity, dragging people into the water. At this time, many killer crabs will get together and share a good meal with their claws. Once attacked, people rarely survive. Occasionally, survivors are also raw and have comminuted fractures.
The appearance of killer crabs puzzled Japanese marine biologists. Man-eating crabs mainly appear in Kyushu, Japan, the southeast coast of Shikoku and the southern coast of Honshu. There has never been a record of killing crabs in this area before. Only one spider crab looks like a killer crab, but it is much smaller. This kind of spider crab is gentle, even if it is put in the hand, it will not attack people. Spider crabs mainly live in the deep sea area of three or four kilometers, and only appear in the shallow sea area when mating and spawning. However, in the past 20 years, this spider crab has disappeared, replaced by killer crabs.
After a lot of careful research, Japanese marine biologists have come to the conclusion that killer crab is a descendant of spider crab and a variant of spider crab. It turned out that the former Soviet Union secretly transported a large amount of nuclear waste to the Pacific Ocean near the southeast coast of Japan for dumping. This is the living area of spider crabs. The intense radioactivity of nuclear waste killed a large number of spider crabs. However, a few survivors have undergone gene mutation under the strong radioactive influence, forming a huge and ferocious new species. This new species gradually moved to the shallow sea to survive, and began to feed mainly on the meat of people and other animals.
In the eyes of philosophers, this case just proves that nature belongs to human nature.
Man is a part of nature and the result of the long-term evolution of nature itself. Nature existed long before the formation and appearance of human beings. However, since the appearance of human beings, nature has been inseparable from human beings, and human beings belong to nature. So Marx said: "Man is a living natural being. On the one hand, man is endowed with natural force and vitality, and is a dynamic natural existence; These forces exist in him as gifts, abilities and passions; On the other hand, as a natural, tangible, perceptual and objective existence, man, like animals, is a passive, restricted and restricted existence, that is to say, the object of his lust exists outside him as an object that does not depend on him. " [1] But nature also belongs to people. Nature continues to exist in people, that is, nature exists in people. From the vast universe to the depths of the ocean, from bustling cities to virgin forests, there are no traces of people in nature. In philosophical terms, this connection between nature and human beings is called natural humanity. Black crab is a new species formed in nature under the influence of human beings, and it is a proof of the humanization of nature. But this is not the only evidence.
There are many oil drilling platforms in the northern waters of Britain. Whenever the drilling platform needs maintenance, divers often dive into the deep water of 100 feet for maintenance. However, they are often frightened by the big fish that hit them. Later, they had to work in a special iron cage to ensure their life. People have always thought that these fish are a special species similar to sharks or whales. However, experts found that these fish are neither sharks nor whales, but delicious dishes on people's tables-cod and rays. The difference is that these people's favorite fish species grow very large, some as long as 12 feet, which is equivalent to the height of two adult British men. Why do these fish grow so big? After repeated investigations by experts, it was found that this was caused by human factors. It turns out that people's oil pipelines are constantly transporting oil mined from underground, and the underground oil temperature is very high, which makes the nearby waters warm like spring all year round, which is very suitable for the growth of fish. Moreover, workers on drilling platforms often dump leftover food directly into the sea, which makes these fish often overnourished; In addition, the drilling platform prevents fishing boats from fishing nearby, and these fish have no natural enemies here. All day long, these fish are pampered in this "paradise" created by human beings. Over time, they become super big fish, which scares their predators.
The above two examples show that nature has started a new evolutionary history under the influence of human practical activities. Therefore, in the view of practical materialism, the nature around us has been closely related to human beings. With the continuous development of human practical activities, this relationship is getting closer and deeper. Therefore, when Marx criticized Feuerbach, he pointed out, "He didn't see that the perceptual world around him is by no means something that has existed directly and consistently since the beginning of the world, but a product of industrial and social conditions, a product of history, and the result of several generations' activities ... Even the simplest object of' perceptual certainty' is provided to him because of social development and industrial and commercial exchanges. As we all know, cherry trees, like almost all fruit trees, were transplanted to our area only a few centuries ago for commercial reasons. It can be seen that the cherry tree was only perceived by Feuerbach's' perceptual certainty' because of this kind of activity in a certain society in a certain period. " [2]
To say that nature belongs to human nature is the connection between nature and people, which is only one aspect. The attribution of nature to human nature also means that nature is transformed into its own existence among human beings. In other words, the development and change of nature not only has its own regularity, but also has more and more purpose, that is, in the interaction with nature, through the transformation and influence of nature, nature is full of human will and embodies human purpose. Therefore, Marx said: "All the so-called world history is nothing more than the generation of human beings through human labor, and it is the generation of nature for human beings." [3] Therefore, since the emergence of human beings, human practice has become a profound foundation for the development and change of nature. Although the objective law of nature's own development is not changed by human practice, the development of nature itself is increasingly subordinate to its development caused by human practice.
Only after the appearance of human beings, especially today when human science and technology are highly developed, does natural humanity show the connection between nature and people and the dependence of nature on people. Just because nature belongs to human nature does not mean that people can do whatever they want with nature. In the interaction with nature, although people have marked nature with all kinds of people in different ways, they can never violate or run counter to the laws of nature. The purpose of nature can only be embodied by the laws of nature itself, rather than that human beings can transform and conquer nature at will. The so-called victory of human beings who break away from and violate the laws of nature will eventually bring bitter fruit to human beings themselves. As Engels said, every victory of mankind against nature was retaliated by nature. The appearance of man-eating crabs is nature's revenge for human pollution of the ocean.
On the one hand, the humanity of nature means that nature is "generated for human beings" under the influence of human beings, on the other hand, it also points out the responsibility of human beings to nature. Nature is human, which shows that all kinds of human behaviors are closely related to nature. Generally speaking, human behavior towards nature can be divided into two categories. One is positive and conducive to the evolution and development of nature, such as reducing pollution and maintaining ecological balance; One kind is negative, which causes behaviors that undermine the harmonious development of nature, such as deforestation, environmental pollution, and destruction of the atmospheric ozone layer. The behavior of the former conforms to the laws of nature, promotes natural development and is conducive to the long-term stability of mankind. The latter behavior violates the laws of nature, hinders the development of nature, and in turn is unfavorable to human beings themselves. Therefore, starting from the humanity of nature, human beings have an unshirkable responsibility for the future of nature. Man should protect nature, and protecting nature means protecting himself. From the objectivity of nature and man, man and nature are mutual objects, and the survival of one side is conditional on the other. The destruction of nature also damages the objectivity of human beings. "The existence of non-objectivity means that there is no existence", so the harm that human beings do to nature in the process of their own development is actually the harm to human beings themselves. So we say that protecting nature means protecting human beings themselves. This is an inevitable conclusion on the premise that nature belongs to human nature.
