ilovemybrain Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 This explains a lot about why I've never been too interested in delayed gratification. I've always thought I'm part bonobo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JadedAtheist Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Great video. I didn't know Karl Marx was still alive though, and lecturing for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deva Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 That was an interesting video. I have some video lectures by Sapolsky. He had a little less hair a few years ago. Yes there are uniquely human qualities that set us apart from all other primates. One of them is this ability we have to think of the future as being infinite, with us there in it so we must plan for that too. Ha I loved how he said we study and work hard to get good grades, to get into a good college in order to pick the nursing home of our choice!
