The Theory of Humans: Dignity

Abstract

If you lose a leg, you will feel undignified in public places; that is to say, a body organ is a dignity of humans. If you are penniless, you will feel undignified everywhere; that is to say, money is a dignity of humans as well. Scientifically, therefore, the word ``dignity'' should be a countable noun; you have many concrete dignities, including your body organs, your children, your wealth, your privacy, your image, and so on; in addition, you need to defend these concrete dignities of yours all your life. With this scientific concept of dignity, this paper can smoothly solve a series of hard problems, including (1) how human ancestors stood up from four-legged animals; (2) why humans got dressed; (3) how humans acquired wisdom; (4) why humans commit suicide; and (5) why humans have developed into what you see today.
