Dominance and Delusion: Why we do the things we do
WHY DO WE DO THE THINGS WE DO?
WHY DO WE THINK THE WAY WE DO?
Why do we think we are special?
Why do we think we are rational?
Why do we think we are the culmination of evolution?
WHY DO WE BEHAVE THE WAY WE DO?
Why do we have war?
Why do we have dictators?
Why do we have cults?
Why do we have criminals?
WHY DO WE BELIEVE THE THINGS WE DO?
Why do we believe in astrology?
Why do we believe in religion?
WHY ARE WE THE WAY WE ARE?
Why are we bipedal?
Why are we hairless?
Why are we intelligent?
There are answers to all these whys. That is what this book is all about.
Shall we rationalize the impossible in an attempt to prove that we are special or is it better to learn the truth and know that we are not.
It is no coincidence that inhumane acts are committed only by humans.
If there is no such thing as life after death, no one will be disappointed.
Dominance drives us - at least some of us - and delusion blinds most of us.
