I would not be too harsh on Lukac's wooden language and thought--in
1949 anything deviating even slightly from Stalin orthodoxy would have
put him into the grave beside Lazlo Rajk. But about that one
essential question, there is indeed a science which answers that
question definitively: ecology. The relation of every living
individual to life, the aim and purpose of every life without
distinction of species, is to eat and be eaten in submission to the
rule of Our Great Common-Cosmic Trogoautoegocrat.
