The Way: Meaningful Spirituality for a Modern World
Are Humans and Other Animals Altruistic?
It seems reasonable to me that “unselfish” behavior in animals or humans can be similarly and variously explained by some combination of altruism, protective instincts, and reciprocal behavior. Why would we assume that humans are different than other animals, that humans are inherently “good” or “bad,” or that altruistic behavior in humans or other animals is NOT natural?
The End of Evolution?
What if natural intelligence has reached the end of its evolution, while artificial intelligence has only reached the beginning of its evolution?
Nations Rise and Fall. Religions Rise and Fall.
Nations rise and fall, and religions rise and fall. Species evolve and face extinction. If human beings are still here in 2,000 years, will the religions of our day still exist?
