I'd say reason is just as important, but we've had this argument too many times. Besides, you always give evolution credit for reason.

Yes, that's a different point and I'm not excluding reason from the equation. Reason can be applied to everything.

And yes, I think we evolved the ability to reason because there is every reason to think this is a product of higher brain function.

Even I will concede that we evolved brains which are capable of reason.

I thought it unlikely you'd deny this so I'm never quite sure where you think we disagree. I can't see that we do.

Only it attitude where you get almost spiritual about the nature of reason & I just think its a pretty cool tool big brains can wield.

Anyway, as I was saying, reason is transcendent in the immaterial platonic realm of ideas...(1/423)
