![]() The depressing thing is that this is news in the 21st century West.Ī brilliant book that takes you on a journey through moral psychology and the formation of the human mind. the native peoples I met were quite happy with their values so who an I too judge… failing to see that in almost every oppression in the past there have been oppressed people who defended the status quo.there are also the ridiculous assertions… apparently suicide bombing has been conclusively proven to have nothing to do with religion by an academic – well clearly that settles it then! criminality in the 60s, 70s and 80s and it’s decline in the 90s was caused by leaded petrol – nothing to do with abortion rates, decreased use of cash, decreased cost of consumer goods etcUltimately it’s just the story of a left wing academic realising that conservatives are not baby eating monsters but people with a less utopian view of humanity. He swings by group selection without looking into the genetics of it, has the requisite politically correct view of cultural relativism. His defence of religion bypasses the atheists main point that it is a highly unlikely hypothesis for the creation of the universe. ![]() ![]() Whilst there are a few good ideas here it is mostly evidence light assertions like an extended TED talk. ![]() ![]() The Righteous Mind | Jonathan Haidt | Talks at Google ![]()
