 Did you have any thoughts regarding the portion of my  response directed at answering the question of whether or not Jerry can account for our behaviors?



I don't think the comparison is fair. Approach any person on the street and attempt to engage them on the topic of 'Darwinism', and they will know exactly what you are talking about.

If, however, someone tried to elicit my opinion on 'Jerry' I don't think I could be criticized for questioning the mental balance of my interviewer. 

I didn't say anything about the other portion of your response because I took no objection to it. I agreed with you completely.
