Mark,

why?

I also suppose that the caveman would die first because of all the daring things he will be doing since his mind is not developed. An average modern human would live longer, because he experiement more fear.

Is fear an element for surviving? (yes?...)


Liara,

I read your suggested articles. I find them insightful. I really appreciate the link between fear and thinking in the future. I can even use it to prove Mark's point. Since the caveman has not an enough developed mind, he can't imagine as much bad things to happen as we, modern human do [war, global warming, weapon of mass destruction, society's laws, etc...]. that's why he feel less fear

Your second article states that emotion is a body reaction to an event in our mind. This can prove that intellect and fear are linked. [Mark?]
