THE HUMANITY OF MAN by philoedu(m): 4:23pm On Jul 13, 2018
The individual person known as man is often misunderstood due to lack of adequate understanding of the ontological dimension of the man in question. The term in used here is philosophical term that deals with the nature of existence and its consistency. This is because man has long cease be or is no longer regarded as absolute value. In this perspective, it simply means that man has come to be regarded as a mere transitory phenomenon of reason.

And if you like, an absolute spirit of mere I. But according to some school of thought, the conception of the –will- entrusted to reason by –idealist- is nothing but with the sole objective to destroy the very structure of man in his ontological dimension.
What we are talking about here is the structure of man that has to do with religious, moral and politics as well metaphysics. There has always been consistent attempt to portray man in the light of what might be called a –tragedy- of the superman.

But on the other hand, in the light of ideological concept of a person, the idealist never relent in their attempt to regard a person as a mere phenomenon of psychology just to make him not only an egoistic individual but also a subjective being. But the reality is that, this is unacceptable, although, inadmissible but understandable in all ramification. This is true, because when man is refused of his complete humanity or personality, if you like, what else, it simply mean he becomes an object thrown continually into a problematic world. And of cause with no value, but in a sort of battle front of self survival, and in fact he may as well not survive it, who knows, which is the enigma of man.

It is self-evidence, that some of the properties that often come to be manifested in human being for those who care to conceive a man dialogically in relation to others, is no doubt, can be found in his vocation, action and communication. The same is true, that as regard the vocational aspect of any person or being, he becomes significant as a unique individual, of which nothing can substitute his reality as a man and those who he relates.

On this part, is his actions, but it is always a fact that as an individual or man he must be engaged or subjected to a certain continuous action through which he could discover his potentials to survive in his existence as he strive to actualize himself. In his communication process, he no doubt, often employs a verbal and non-verbal means to communicate, of which language becomes the vehicle with which he command his thought. The same is true, that often his thought and feelings remains unexpressed, if there is no language attached.

Often man comes to be judged almost in everything by the very efficiency of his communication in both speech and written word. For man’s communication to be effective he must reflect in his mind which is the true image of his thought as conveyed to others. Often in communication through relationship with others, man often comes to discover a movement that reveals man to others.

In this perspective, the first experience in any person is the experience of the second person- which is ‘’-you-’’ and of which when embarked upon, becomes a battle of survival. Because it is–“I” who is always in favour of a person and has the fundamental commitment and moral obligation applicable in the collective struggle of survival.

[/b] This come to signifies the true nature of man as a person who strive profoundly and intrinsically in his existence as he await the realization of a true justices free from any form of dehumanization of any kind. It is true that we often look up to the community or society of the future in which a person is among the community or society of the future –“I” and of “you” but in solidarity with others capable of the “we”-in the collective struggle for equity and justices for survival.
