Re: If there is no God redux.
not all animals are driven by the need to pass on their genes, only the alpha male/femaleofa wolf pack reproduce. The others just help raise the pups and feed each other. There can be challanges to this, like whoever walks to the north pole is way more badass than myself, and could probably kikc my ass. So you could see the act as an assertion of himself as alpha, in humans i think this is mostly subconcious though.
