==Better name for "Outside context problem"==
[[User:MyRedDice]] deleted the "Outside context problem" column with the comment ''rm OCP - Iain Banks is not a scientist - out of place here''.

:Thanks. Different reaction than I expected, gives me a different way of viewing it. Is religion now in the ''garbage bin'' - hmm... Anyway I have no plan to revert (although I'm tempted, just to see your ''other comments''). If the ''progress - regress'' dichotomy remains, I would be inclined to include religion in both. -[[User:Vsmith|Vsmith]] 21:40, 10 Oct 2004 (UTC)

:Um...I find it unrealistic and unfair to put religion in regress...so basically, what you're saying is that people who are religious are causing the Human population to regress? I completely agree with the idea of just a single "major events" section.

:Does anyone have any problem with my including the emergence of the [[human condition]] as an event? Some other items, such as the emergence of [[maternal love]], [[compassion]] and the differentiation between [[vice]] and [[virtue]]? I truly believe these facets are part of [[civilization]] [[User:Ancheta Wis|Ancheta Wis]] 18:11, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)⏎
:OK, but --- how do you define [[human condition]] (that article is a ''bit'' ill defined.) and what evidence do you have for an ''emergence''? Agreed that these are most important parts of civilization. Question is, when did they start? Maternal love is not restricted to humans - when did it originate? Don't think we know. -[[User:Vsmith|Vsmith]] 00:08, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)
