I've thought about this for a day or two and haven't come up with a good answer. The best I could think of was that I've wondered about my father's activities in WWII.

The Glory of Humanity

In a previous blog posting (Evolution, Consciousness, and Altruism), I suggested that consciousness gave us the ability to override any programming of our actions coming from our DNA.
