Sinning, as Jesus and the church say, is good. Turn or burn Christians.

Let's try a little thought experiment.  If it turned out that cooperation was the worst survival strategy, and annihilation was what worked, would you consider annihilation right?

I would likely be slaved to my instincts, the same way that I am slaved to them now.

It happens that our instincts want order and security and reject chaos or competition as the best for us when young.

Only when we pass the age of reason, and begin to compete, can we do it intelligently.
