Our mind is the emergent operating system of a bunch of cells structured in a particular physiological architecture. Evolution will bias our mind towards learning how to optimize the sustainable reward for these cells, taken over several generations.

This makes sense... I think I actually thought of fear of death as something more real than other consequences (I guess I am human
). It could very well be a different bias.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

All of them. Logic eventually fails all of us

I suspect that Cornelia was talking about something different: her experience that most other people construct their self and behavior in a fundamentally different way than she does herself, which makes her feel alienated

Exactly...that is why I said that eventually logic fails, because there is very hard to find a common ground in personal experiences. Am we all know there is a limit of what we can "accept"

In my experience .Describing something logical is only possible if we share the same ideology. Without an ideology there is only logic. Few people can separate logic from ideology. Ideology is more based on emotional perception than logic.

It is possible to drive reason far enough to deduce how exactly logic and emotion function. Ideology is unhelpful because it is bypassing reason in almost arbitrary ways. Ideology is a tool of social programming.
