It would be like playing chess with comeone who can override your moves.

There would be no play at all. We use the idea of evolution in sociology, history, which is kind of a problem and the source of much political debate. Every day another reformer stands up, and then conservatives question whether we would be better off. How are we to make sense of the gang riot yesterday: is it some kind of evolution, a change of rules in the middle of the game?

Another interesting idea. Have you noticed how cyclic history is? I think it really is true, those who do not know history about doomed to repeat it.
