Apparently some other people think that they do understand what I'm saying but they don't like it and have consequently downgraded my post!

It's the old "nature vs nurture" thing: those who don't like my posting are "nurturists" and believe that we're born as tabulae rasae, empty slates that learn all behavior; I'm seen as the "naturist" who believes that we're totally gene-controlled.

Humans are capable of incredible self-deception a la Robert Trivers:

You're most likely fighting your genes (or perhaps you're a mutant): maybe you'll win and maybe you won't. Here the _you_ I refer to here is that part which believes it has free will and can override the other (genetic) part.

I hope you're posting under a pseudonym. Revealing that one's wife had an affair is no small potatoes.
