[ExI] humanity

[William Flynn Wallace]

Adrian, are you sort of including selfishness here?  That is, if we could
empathize fully we would understand people better and do more sharing with
them?

I knew someone would come up with moral failures in people.  The question,
if taken as Adrian suggests, makes no sense, since logic is clearly an
asset.  I get a lot of questions that I have to interpret.
