I think that competition has nothing to do with cooperation, or lack of cooperation.

I did read the whole thread...did you?
Competition and Cooperation are closely related. When a baseball game is played...there is a cooperative agreement to follow the rules and cooperate with the rulings of the referees. The team members cooperate with each other to pursue success in the game. A lone ranger team member quickly ends up on the bench. In survival of the fittest competitive evolution...cooperation is a competitive survival skill. I recall discussing this with Terrence McKenna. He agreed with this view. That day...I talked to Dr. Timothy Leary about Jesus. What a trip!
A dictator might insist upon reeducation in a mental hospital for someone who felt and acted coerced...and who exhibited signs of deep seated hostility toward the state. This maladjusted rebel might be a potential terrorist. This mentally ill person must learn to be happy with their servitude. They must learn to love Big Brother. After all...didn't Jesus tell us to love our enemies? Doesn't the Bible tell us that the powers that be are ordained by God? Is God a dictator...or is it Satan who is the dictator? Or...are both terms really Reptilian/Luciferian creations designed to control and enslave the human race? Does Lucifer(and friends) masquerade as BOTH God and Satan? I'm not suggesting that these beings are merely figments of the imagination...but rather that they may be demonic deceptions. Warning: Heresy Inside. I hope the good guys win...or I'm in deep snake ****!
