Sure, ants can work harmoniously because of genetic incentives, but how is that really different from the way cells work together in a human body? Selfishness

Sure, ants can work harmoniously because of genetic incentives, but how is that really different from the way cells work together in a human body? Selfishness is inescapable and constant, like the speed of light. Justice and individuality are illusions, like time and space, that become meaningful when determined in terms of selfishness. That which is selfish is an individual; that which is an altruist member of a greater being is like a cell in an individual.
