Hard News: The fake news problem, in reply to Farmer Green,
Seeing as we more "intelligent" animals have few innate behaviours, and as "innate green" can be reasonably taken to be " sustainability instinct", then we have eating, fleeing, and sleeping as possibilities for the innate behaviour.

"innate green idealism"
Interesting choice of words. Something like the "will to live"? -

Based on what Snopes offers , the true ratio of counties wins looks to be Trump : Clinton= 80:20

Here is a cool piece of “fake news” . Or is it " gospel truth”? I get confused :-)
“There are 3,141 counties in the United States.
Trump won 3,084 of them.
Clinton won 57.
There are 62 counties in New York State.
Trump won 46 of them.
Clinton won 16.
Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes.

Well I would be happy to be wrong about that :-)
The question is about which human behaviours are innate. -
Sorry that I am "all over the shop". I find an i-pad to be quite cumbersome sometimes.

I made the assumption that rationality and superstition are polar opposites.

So the propensity to superstition does not exist?
Or if it does it is not hard- wired into H. sapiens?
