You weigh in on this one a little light, Richard.
Materialism is precisely the biggest flaw in
applying Natural Selection to human selection.
The faculty, mind, which discovered nature's methods is a different feature of nature which has not yet been popularly factored into Evolutionary Theory except in a hack-amateurish way such as Dialectical Materialism et. al.

If you are vouching for Dialectical Materialism
as adequate management policy for human mental output, then we know where you are coming from.
But I think you will never really go out on a limb
and adequately explain anything but crude mechanical workings of something, mind, which is much finer than those crude (and short) lines you write about it.

Cordially,
Mike
