Under which conditions would intellectual masses outgrow instinctive
masses?
Currently the state is quite the opposite, as intellectual people raise
(thereby infect with intellectual memes) less children. Intellectual
memes aren't the easiest to spread, especially when they deal with
religion.
In which memetical environment is it different? Which physical
environment could make religious intellect necessairy for survival?
Now that I think of it, what about religious people converted by force,
those who had to kiss the cross or die. When those people tried to
secretly keep their former religion, they couldn't do it intuitively, as
a normal social convention. In order to preserve their belief, they HAD
to maintain a certain level of religious intellect.
Correct?
