He had to be "more OK" than the author. What's wrong with just accepting the information and using it for evaluative purposes instead of reacting with such emotional bias. I argue that the article is not only scientifically sound, it's exercised by those in the human race on a daily basis. Look around at the world conditions and this article is fully supported.

When you equate the limbic system with a motivational system that can't "sacrifice for the future" or is "selfish", I can't help but conclude that the authors are actually cheerleaders for a civilization that is run by a "selfish" species dominated by capitalism and religion. Unfortunately, this kind of "patriotic" reasoning is precisely why the neo-cortex is blindly intelligent, and only rationalizes in its' attempt to promote a economic system that is now shown to be defunct. Nature, and the limbic system is far more "rational" because it specifically "fits into" the overall ecosystem, the only reliable model that we should exist in. Abstraction IS the problem on Planet Earth. Thanks Your article reeks with social concensus bias, and isn’t scientifically sound.
