its not group selection, it always makes sense for your brother to throw himself in front of you to save you. as
you share the same genes, so it helps with the transmission. . inner reward , female fantasy, hope and
funny, all do not allow evidence based inquiry. . money might bring happiness but it is "not "happiness.
external can be described by mathematics. internal not. more like category theory, .

good point.. but now you are talking group selection.. not sure I think that operates.. at least at a biological
level.. yes, clearly at a social level.

my question is, if one accepts that there are two (inside vs outside), conflicting forces at work..
the game theory issue then becomes how to couple these and derive optimal solutions..

hmmm.. have to think about this.. it is long accepted that the god myth satisfies some long
standing internal need humans have for either defense against death or need for purpose.. no
doubt actions governed by satisfying that pleasure center... the key question is where inside
and outside intersect and cannot both be satisfied together.. that is where game theory is
relevant I think.. how to compromise on satisfying hopes, and satisfying reality when trying
to outsmart a charging lion..

inner domain, goals are self created. mastabatory fantasies. for example. rewards in sub
domains, social physical emotional. , some hard wired food, temp. etc. a continum of

outer domain subject to laws of physics . inner domain , biologically yes, but ghosts,
beliefs self deception and delusion, and most importantly hope, all actualized.
It makes little sense to apply an evidenced based system in the inner domain, it is
comprised of a non cummative li grouping, . no symmetry for example. however the
image of your fantasy girl conjured up while you pleasure yourself , is a real to the innner
self as the cigarette you smoke afterwards is to the outer domain.
Inner rewards would have been subject to natural selection, so that random killing in the
inner world would unlikely be adaptive. acts of inner revenge however could blow off
steam and save outer world consequences.
religion acts as one of many proposed belief systems to help construct an inner life. where
the unpowerful are effective. it makes as little sense for it to be a logic system operating in
the outer domain as little as a science based view on the evidence of my fantasy girl. you
should find some highly correlated inner and outer rewards but as many uncorrelated.
depression might mean ignoring the outside altogether, retreating into an inner self in order
not to do harm.

the inner life should be normally distributed over subdomains as well as a homgenious
popualtion . so that some in the group receive social pleasure, some only physical. etc.
In the game theory analogy, the reserves both in the inner and outer domain play a
substantial role. . there are many experiments that show that a rational being modulates his
reserves so that they last a long time. only in certain circumstances can you access these
reserves on purpose. jet pilots told to hold their hands in ice water , until they can't take it
pull out in under 150 seconds. however if you tell them to last for 180 to make the grade 80
percent are capable. . hope meanining purpose. all self created fictions that are selected for.
. there are outward signs , confidnece , smiling , that create an outer group;
religioin is a logic system that intersects that of science .ie being kind, has benefits in outer
as well as inner domains - as goals are aligned, believing that mohammed rode to heaven
on a horse. is ok, if it satiates the inner self. reduces blood pressure, but unable to
withstand the rigor of the outer mathematics. and is dangerious but so is that blonde, girl
that always does as she is asked in your fantasy, . uh oh, you actually married her.
