My answers. 1) Somebody hasn't been paying attention ... I've been saying that Proveit is a waste of everybosdy's time. Stop setting up Impossibles as if you gain anything from them. All you gain is recognition that you aren't listening - or worse, are silently dismissing the rebuttals to your prepackaged polemic. 2) It would look as it looks now. Pretending that the Selfish Gene model leads to Bikerworld is breathtakingly naive. If everything is permitted (and it IS! Show me an example of the Universe stopping immoral but physically feasible behavior, e.g. the garbage in Rwanda) then it becomes possible for you to become completely amoral. But you are quickly alienated or even hunted by your tribemates. A truce develops if there is going to be community ... and through several such iterations societies develop. This is the logical consequence of Everything Being Permitted; it is all logically consistent. But I am worried that the point will be lost since you apparently filter everything through a Truth Test that is not empirical but doctrinal. In time, the fitter world interpretation will prevail.
