Esp. to John, but to everybody:

I keep reading the evolution just cobbles together the best thing it can
with the materials at hand and the thing may not be the perfect thing.

So - how do we explain irrationality and the very numerous errors in
thinking, none of which seem to be supportive of survival?  Aside from
protecting the ego in certain instances, it would seem that distortion of
reality works against survival.  Eh?
