A weird modernist-atheist version of original sin doctrine is to think of your supposed-paleo-adapted brain/body not as something to fetishize a return to, but as something to reshape and update for modernity. Until then, your paleo original sin makes you somewhat subhuman.

Same thing, evolutionarily speaking, from egocentric lizard brainstem to clubthumping forebear to prosocial sapiens. It's all analogical but fundamentalists contrive a regime of moronic control by forcing literalist readings.
