Thanks. By capitalizing "Our" and "Your," are you suggesting that our true nature is divine? This might fit into the perennial religious traditions, or into Jainism, Hinduism, Sufism, and the like. There are many versions of the Fall narrative. Heidegger has one, for example.

Overall, it's certainly compelling, although it may conform to the conservative gambit of holding out a utopian past as a standard to which we need to return, whereas the past was likely not as ideal as it seems in our faulty collective memories.
