“Other animals fight for territory or food; but, uniquely in the animal kingdom, human beings fight for their ‘beliefs.’ The reason is that beliefs guide behavior, which has evolutionary importance among human beings.

When you can’t think of a good rebuttal for your opponent’s argument, you can always punch them in the face.”
