Humanity and Human Sexuality: The Origin and Nature of Sexual Preference

In Humanity and Human Sexuality: The Origin and Nature of Sexual Preference, Dr. Kevin Franklin embarks on an extraordinary exploration of the human being, of mind, and their potential. Delving deep into themes of confusion and disorder, he unveils how a ‘trickster-mind’ can hinder an individual’s true potential for life and freedom. Drawing from his own profound experiences of childhood psychosis, which once seemed to destine him for a life overshadowed by schizophrenia and the threat of early suicide, Dr. Franklin defies expectations.

This book ventures beyond traditional boundaries to examine the metaphysical aspects of psychological order, offering a unique perspective on the often-misunderstood concepts of societal and psychological disorders. Dr. Franklin’s insights extend into a scientific demonstration of the innate origins and nature of both heterosexual and homosexual preferences.

Humanity and Human Sexuality: The Origin and Nature of Sexual Preference illuminates various fields - Philosophy, Religion, History, Science, Society, and Psychology - offering a revolutionary viewpoint on these disciplines. It challenges long-held beliefs and misconceptions, particularly in the realms of sexual identity, the gender and transgender discussion, and the complex relationship between religion and science.

Structured in two parts, the book first deconstructs the mythology of sexual identity, before reconstructing a comprehensive understanding of human sexuality. It seeks to resolve some of humanity’s most pressing issues: the lack of human compassion, the intricacies of gender identity, and the historical tensions between religious beliefs and scientific understanding. This book is an essential read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the origins and nature of sexual preference and identity, and the broader implications for society.
