The Hate Of The New Atheists

I can't quite see how what you said is substantially different to what I said:

 

  • Why? Because I don't think I am a self made man. Any tolerance or intolerance has ultimately come from outside of my self.
  • My environment still pressures me to be tolerant or intolerant as the occasion arises, My biochemistry still does its stuff that can be seen or interpreted by others as tolerant or intolerant

Are not you origin, background, education, experience, social, history and other causes components of your environment?

romansh I do agree with what you said, but when I act like a jerk and comtemplate it, I go against the conditioning and make new pathways, which you might call new conditioning, but it can work against intolerance.

When I behave like a jerk and contemplate the behaviour I find that my contemplation is also a result of my education, past experiences, and the general state of my biochemistry of my brain/body complex.

 

I have been very definitely been conditioned not to be perceived as a jerk.

 

So that there is conflicting conditioning built into us, is not terribly surprising.
