Well, I can answer that - or rather, I can answer it in the negative. We should not believe that inner voice. Because that inner voice is the result of Evolution, which has done a job that is only just good enough to get by, to make us create the next generation willy-nilly. Evolution tells us to get knocked up as quickly as possible, evolution tells us to stuff our faces with sugary food, evolution tells us that the lines with the arrowheads going opposite ways aren't the same length. It tells us to die when our bile duct gets blocked, rather than have keyhole surgery. It tells us to go blind rather than have our cataracts removed. It tells us to fall off cliffs rather than wear glasses, to be eaten rather than create fire to scare of predators, to starve to death rather than develop weapons. Yes, we have silenced this "nous", this voice of unreason, this voice that would tell us to live with whatever handicaps chance has dealt out, which tells us to have children and then die, no matter who we have them with, no matter how badly they fare as a result. Because that's all evolution can see. A blind watchmaker is likely to make defective watches that only occasionally work. We have the sense to see further than that, and to say, no, THIS is wrong - the blind hand dealt to us by evolution is what is wrong, and we have the nous to put it right. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
