[Platt] Who is this "we" you speak of? A suicide bomber? Seems she would be excluded from the hard-wired morality of playing nice that some science types are claiming evolved from our animal ancestors -- the monkey people. [Krimel] When Shermer talks about this he notes the difference between, within group violence and between group violence. Among humans we call this tribal warfare. Suicide bomber are practicing between group violence. They are also subject to substantial social pressure which may override hardwiring.
To say that we inherit certain traits does not mean we can not overcome them. It really just speaks to the difficulty in doing so. moq_discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
