I just don't understand any kind of absolute egalitarianism philosophy. Whether it's branded as anarcho-capitalism or straight anarchism or sockfucking libertarianism, it always misses the same point.

That was great Nigel, thanks!

I found something related to the "Fear" portion mentioned above:

It seems like Anandamide & our natural Cannabinoids play a key role in clearing the fear chemicals out of our system.

Oh, that is fascinating!

I really wish I had a bunch to add to this thread, Pixie, but human neurophysiology is definitely not my background. And when I start talking about behavior, people don't like my "fixed action patterns" approach because, despite a large portion of human behavior being automatic, people don't like to be treated like robots.
