My first philosophy paper I started with an appeal to human nature and rightfully the prof did destroy that with big bold red markings. I did use the snappy start since I learned from the Economist and the big newspapers, be it Die Zeit or some Anglosphere ones that it is interesting and intellectual to do it.
It is mostly used to strengthen hegemonic ideology, it isn't scientific and many people using it have no clue about what "natural" is and neither do they have concepts about what did happen in pre-history, but they think they do - as I did, too. It is a scourge.
