Notes:
Here are the evolutionary answers to the worldview questions. We are nothing special… quite insignificant actually. We can blame our evolutionary past for much of what is wrong with the world. After all, survival of the fittest does not lead to a peaceful, loving environment. Maybe better education or eliminating poverty will help, but not just ignorant or poor people steal and murder. Maybe science and technology will save us, but then again, maybe it will doom us as a crazy dictator releases nuclear weapons. There is not much to look forward to, this life is it so get all of the toys you can and have as much fun as possible!
