[Xmca-l] Re: Do we find Inequalities in wild life system?

[Martin Packer]

James, I’m confused. The statement you quote by Moir and Jessel would seem to imply that inequality is ‘a biological and scientific’ truth. Which is the opposite of what you believe, right?

And since humans are a species too, we shouldn’t try to build human society on a belief in equality?

Natural disasters and the plenitude of Nature have these dimensions only to the extent they are imposed on or made available to different classes of people by the social system.
