  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

So basically I worked out an Evolutionary loophole, not sure what to do?

Hi there,

So I worked out that because of the difference between temptation and ageing (regardless of predators), and the necessity of evolving a choice between strong and weak altruism, means that there is a selection pressure either tangential or parallel to the death/adaptation axis but not coincident to or with it without impact, or regress.

This is great but what do you do about it, what do you do about the fact that things have to evolve a choice? On the one hand you could try to refute Evolution, but people don't really believe it because its true, they believe it because its convenient and if they didn't have it things would be far worse, so the only alternative is to "go with it", while remembering that the fear of losing it drives many.

The thing is, I don't really understand how to communicate the theology of "going with it" to people who can't accept that their adherence to survival of the fittest jams the door open to nonsense - I mean on an energistic level it is like meaningless negative chaotic energy or something, there is no way to make anything of it, only continually pay it forward, in the hope that more altruistic choices are made overall. I don't think that's entirely sensible.

Maybe people need to accept that they are not being sensible?

Thanks.
