And l thought it was food and water. Silly me.

No, most required feeling, not most required thing of all things.

@Caseyfritz Still don't buy it. Flight or fight as it is with all animals. Especially the flight part. ?

@Caseyfritz Pain is not a feeling. It is a physical manifestation like hunger or thirst. Fear is a feeling.

Yes. On short-time scales.

I would be happier with a little less pain.

I tend to think fear was more important for survival. Can we have fear without prior pain? can we fear without lashing out? Can we overcome evolutionary traits that are no longer as valid as they once were?
