@hbdchick I agree that to talk about "altruism disease" would be misleading. (Though not in terms of the classical meaning of disease.) ...
@HobbesianM no. a mismatched trait is *not* a "pathological maladaptation." it is a mismatched trait.

@hbdchick "pathological maladaptation" is not a phrase I used. Dogmatic universalism is not a "mismatched trait"; it's a mistake. -
@hbdchick Not that universalism is a bad idea; being too dogmatic about it is, as in modern PC-ness. I don't think that was ever adaptive. -
@HobbesianM well, i think it was, 2-3+ hundred years ago or so in nw europe. (not 1000 years ago. didn't exist yet then.)
