5/5: Amazing visual storytelling of how natural selection is about survival of genes, not living creatures - they're just a side-effect.

S2E6: In the next several videos, I’ll be looking at the social aspects of spirituality. Today’s video asks: Did religion evolve? TLDR: yes, but it’s not that simple.

Cover of The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins. The artwork features a surreal, abstract landscape with green hills and blue water, populated by strange pink and red biomorphic creatures with long legs and curved bodies. The title and author’s name are in large white text at the top.
I read The Selfish Gene as a teen.
Some found it cold. Others, reductive.
I found it honest.
It hinted at what objective compassion must look like in a mechanistic world—cooperation from elements preserving their own identity.

TL;DR: the very bonds and instincts that parents are genetically predisposed to build & strengthen are compromised to the point of their celebratory neglect by the systemic, persistent spread of hate, disinformation, #propaganda of our time. Have we broken the programming of our #selfishgene ?
Temetics explains why those who believe false memes cannot survive in a boolean logic environment. Their beliefs will always process to "false" in the boolean domain, negative, nihil, untrue and unprofitable. #selfishgene is a vector, pal.

For those with an interest in more detailed comments/ideas on the #SelfishGene” and how to weave cells and genes in a constructive manner, see Chapter 3 of my book “The Master builder’
An intriguing argument of the book, which naturally is gene centric, is the idea that the future is written in the past as in the genome i.e. determinism. Tomorrow Chapter 8, ‘the immortal gene’. Maybe the swan song of the #SelfishGene.
