"Evolution acts slowly. Our psychological characteristics today are those that promoted reproductive success in the ancestral environmen."
Success
"I suspect that a substantial fraction of human problems in the world today, not just cults, result from the mismatch between the current environment and the environment in which we evolved."
Environment
"People repeat behaviour that leads to flooding their brains with pleasurable chemicals. The short-term reward loop acts over hours to years, and the long-term reproductive success loop over generations."
Success
"Attention is the way social primates measure status. It is highly rewarding because it causes the release of brain chemicals such as dopamine and endorphins."

"People can undergo a sudden change of thinking and loyalties under threat of death or intense social pressure and isolation from friends and family."
Change

Family
"Could people be trained to be less gullible? Or are you as stuck with gullibility as you are with skin colour?"
People

Environment
