The way it seems easier to believe some thing because there is believed to be 'good company'. There is all of the stress behind genetic principles, and evolution, but as we go we are finding there are more and more factors associated. For instance what is learned from others can change behaviors, but can also be inherited, as with children observing their parents, their environment, with associated feedback. This process of adaptation according to environmental and social conditions, has been hard to qualify so far, but there are suggestions and some physical changes which were once previously seen to be adaptations that were strictly genetic, can change from one generation to the next (gene...

The way it seems easier to believe some thing because there is believed to be 'good company'. There is all of the stress behind genetic principles, and evolution, but as we go we are finding there are more and more factors associated. For instance what is learned from others can change behaviors, but can also be inherited, as with children observing their parents, their environment, with associated feedback. This process of adaptation according to environmental and social conditions, has been hard to qualify so far, but there are suggestions and some physical changes which were once previously seen to be adaptations that were strictly genetic, can change from one generation to the next (generation gap?) are also responsible for switches which can activate or deactivate genes, or even so-called 'junk' DNA.. In the same way an opinion can affect the course of social construction, according to it's nature, so it can be passed on from generation to generation. Often being adapted to social situations of the time. A good reason to note some of the lessons History has shown us. There is Much more to evolution than genetics, The fact that much of Human development is motivated by mental processes, it may be that these adaptations have helped with change that we have invited, and have caused to accelerate. Our physical evolution has not progressed at a rate we can immediately detect apart from studying archaeological records, and findings, but our brain has made a volume of knowledge available, with an associated curiosity, has far eclipsed physical evolution. Our views can change often because they are wrong, but also contain enough truth to take their perspective into account when we learn something that is correct, or is more detailed. It is always a bad idea to trust a single source. A second or more, independent opinion is becoming a necessity. There can be trouble when people believe something because it is what they want.
