 All right, you will see what happens So she gives a rock to us. That's the task and We give her a piece of cucumber and she eats it. The other one needs to give a rock to us and that's what she does and She gets a grape And she eats it the other one sees that She gives a rock to us now gets again cucumber. She tests the rock now against the wall she needs to give it to us and And she gets cucumber again What can we learn from monkeys about human beings and is What is the fundamental difference if there is any between monkeys and human beings? Monkeys are not human beings We evolved from monkeys, but monkeys are not human beings. We have a different species We function by laws. Some may argue about this. No, nobody could argue with it We have the capacity some may choose to live like monkeys, but this is the big difference Monkeys cannot choose to live like human beings, but we can choose to live like monkeys We have free will monkeys do not we have a conceptual ability We can invent rockets to take us to the moon. We can zoom Across space monkeys cannot you cannot learn anything About human behavior for monkeys human beings are so removed Evolutionarily for monkeys that it is meaningless to study monkeys in order to understand human beings We are complete. I mean we talk we have complicated conversations. We do experiments on monkeys. They don't do experiments on us So what about jealousy Does not exist Jealousy, I mean it depends what you mean by jealousy the two terms see I know that you are right but I'm jealous It's painful in my stomach when you have jealousy is something we learn It's not something you're you're that's ingrained in you. You're not born jealous It's something you learn and some of us are not jealous, you know, am I jealous of Bill Gates's billions? No Not at all. I live a good life. I have what I have I Wouldn't swap my life for anybody's life. I don't want Bill Gates's life I like my life. I'm not I you know, I might I might be ambitious to be Wealthier and to have a bigger house so big but it's not because my neighbor has it people who always want what the neighbor has a Miserable people. They're unhappy if you live your life based on I want to be like that person I want to you're always looking at other people You're gonna be miserable, but not everybody's like that and that suggests that it's not wired into us It's not how we are as human beings. It's learned and it can be unlearned And to unlearn a lot of that bad stuff I recommend reading Iron Man Look, it's not that I support jealousy as a virtue, but I think it's human Maybe I don't I think it's I think it's bad. I think it's bad ideas. I think it's bad ideas That make us focus on the other instead of focusing on our own on ourself. I'm not jealous of of LeBron James's ability in basketball You know Delacy is not competition I'm competitive if I got on a basketball court with LeBron James I would play against him knowing I would lose but I wouldn't be upset by losing to him But we're competitive competition is different than jealous Young children are competitive and their parents teach them to be jealous often Because the parents are jealous and we teach our children to be jealous We also teach our children to share we teach our children to be good socialists Right, but we don't share as adults, right? You're young kid is playing in the sandbox with his little cars and some strange kids comes up and says I want to play with the cars and what are the parents says you say go you got to share you got to share Why Why should the kids share? I mean you could trade I'll give you my truck if you have a I don't know a sports car something and You won't share as an adult if some stranger came up to you and says I want to borrow your car right now Would you give him the keys? Of course not and you think your kid doesn't know that and doesn't know you're a hypocrite That you want him to share but you won't share so we teach our kids little subtle things about About the big world and about what we expect from them that we don't even know we're teaching them What we need today what I called a new intellectual would be any man or woman who is willing to think Meaning any man or woman who knows that men's life must be guided by reason By the intellect not by feelings wishes women's or mystic revelations Any man or woman who values his life and who does not get want to give in to today's of the spare cynicism and impotence and does not intend to give up the world to the dark ages and to the role of the collectivist All right before we go on reminder, please like the show we've got a hundred and sixty three live listeners right now 30 likes That should be at least a hundred I figure at least a hundred of you actually like the show Maybe they're like 60 of the Matthews out there who hate it But but at least the people who like it, you know, I want to see I want to see a thumbs up there you go Start liking it.
