Such vagrant, impoverished articles are what many people use to drive what is known as ‘‘liberalism,”' in the false hope that appearing to care is an adequate moral substitute for actually curing. Thus, for example, social events such as ‘bake sales far charity’? and ‘‘warage sale benefits’? occur ad nauseam, though few ever question why their need rematerializes. When some do ask, they are told the various lies of overpopulation, war and climatic devastation, after which most resume their comfor- table numbness. Further, to continue the example, the truth (yes, there are things which have nothing to do with statistical probability and they are almost always social truth) I have been referring to is seriously in- third of the human species into the earth for the benefit of a fifth.

Nothing could be further from the truth! Your paper represents contemporary mainstream thought without a scratch, right down to the insidious ocean (which Mr. Hunter inhabits along with a few million other fake “civilized human beings"’) that ex- ists between good (what the best of us expect of the world) and evil (what we predominantly do to make the world what it predominantly is).
