@sapinker How does Gray continue to get away with it? For a philosopher he has a remarkable inability to think in a consistent manner.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@sapinker So your binary outlook trounces J G's? I've read yours and his books, both have valid points, but miss fundamental chaos of nature -
@SteveMurrayM4 both Pinker and Gray are overrated IMAO

@sapinker Despite Gray's blindness to the possibility of human progress, he makes many good points here. We are innately flawed creatures.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@sapinker he's not really taking about those states ( and NZ was founded on genocide). He's talking about the worse demons of our nature -

@mauberley80@sapinker I would say explains rather than excuses. He does put too little weight on bad ideas, religion amongst them.

@sapinker is making fun. The article is another apology for religion, attributing evil & violence to human nature instead of bad ideas. -
@mauberley80@sapinker But doesn't that beg the question of what leads to bad ideas being though of/accepted? -
@normalamerican1@sapinker No, you can agree there are bad parts of human nature w/out excusing Nazism & Wahabism as inevitable.
