“...the human mind serves evolutionary success, not truth...”
It appears that statement is taken far too literally. It could also mean that it responds more favorably to success, irregardless of truth. As an example, some members of society have evolved to rely upon govt to survive, even when there is plenty of evidence it is not in their best interests. Their logical thought process has been rewired to favor dependence.
Perhaps?
Same with compassion. Or sacrificing your life for others.
Then we get into “how did we evolve he concept of ‘aught’?”
Learning to rely on others is not evolution, it is merely “conditioning”.
Like the birds that come to my bird feeders...
