I think you are missing the point. I was not talking about humans, let alone those who had a culture and a belief system. I was talking about precursors to humans. We are going so far back in time, that any "culture" must be seen as a genetic predisposition towards that culture. For example, research shows that Whales and Apes also have "culture". But I am not willing to concede that such culture is somehow the result of indoctrination and apart from any genetic predisposition. I do not know of any dolphin philosopher who inspired other dolphins to spread the message. > Like all beliefs, it is true if you believe it. Say who?! So if believe in relativity of time or in the atomic structure those exist only inside my head and have no reality beyond that?
