I agree with this. Being an academic person, I definitely try to stick to logic. I am quite a pacifist. On the other hand, however, studying science and truly appreciating what it means to be human also involves embracing certain instincts. Fighting and physicality are just as much part of being human as understanding psychology. More so, in fact. If the world goes to **** and we all have to fend for ourselves, guess who will be on top again? The fittest.
