Murray

I've given the book a second read and something doesnt sit right with me, please dont think that I'm putting myself in any sort of league as all you intelligent people... "We are built as gene machines and cultured as meme machines, but we have the power to turn against our creators. We, alone on earth, can rebel against the tyranny of the selfish replicators." (Dawkins [15], p 215) isnt this a huge assumption that there is "someone" beyond the constructs of memes etc that COULD do the overthrowing? Murray-young and learning

Ramin wrote If you are interested, we should attempt to test the theory in real life. I personally am surrounded by people who repeat and apply bogus ideas given to them via commercial outlets and ideology, and would be interested. Yes I'm interested to test the theory.
