Truth: if you steal, cheat, or otherwise abuse others, you will be friendless & probably incarcerated. Truth: if you cheat on your SO, you are buying a boatload of hurt for them.

As described in Saving Gaia, we should be looking at the planet in terms of Rational Darwinism.

AnneWimsey comments on Jun 2, 2019:

"Darwinism is obsolete"???????!!!!! Changes in species are observable all around us, all the time. For one example, grey squirrels here in the Northeast. When I was a kid, 60 years ago, the roadside was littered with dead ones...and this was in the days when 40mph was considered dangerous/reckless! They would see a car approaching & dither around in the road until the car ran them down, sometimes even putting themselves under the wheels despite the best efforts of the driver to avoid them. Now, very few are killed by cars, despite many more & faster cars. They run straight across a road, no lingering/dithering at all. We have "naturally" selected for non-dithery squirrels.

And why act like scientific discoveries have intrinsic "goodness" or "badness"..it is the Utilizers of discoveries (us!) that cause results!
