Richard Dawkins, known in the scientific community for its various studies in the area of development. One of his books, The selfish gene, deals with a theory that places the reproduction (multiplication gene) as the main focus of any living being. As the genes to manipulate the behavior of all living beings and animals in favor of their survival. Not far from this reality, in addition to genes, the study Dawkins incorporates a new type of "genetic load", the memes - that would be all the cultural factors (anthropological and sociological) that form the human being and their being. After all, the culture also want to survive and each represents their culture against the beings that compete in this ecosystem.

The God Delusion in the video, produced for television by Dawkins English, the scientist travels to the United States to find a new trend in American education, the "intelligent design" or "intelligent project" - a theory that is supported by religious fanatics in U.S. to create a layer of iron to the theory of evolution. Life would have evolved yes, but designed by a higher being - not by chance and accident - but that could not be so perfect.

Schools in the U.S. have adopted this methodology of teaching and abolished the study of Darwin and evolution of the species for children. A science that is returned to the faith and reason has no scientific sense.

You can think a biology where all things are built, as a matter proportional squares and everything that has to do is reverse engineer those beings to understand his work - since it was designed, has a human logic (as the Men were created by the image of the Almighty). But that logic is absurd, and has no concrete evidence against going into a science, evolution, which has over one hundred years of research and scientific discoveries that support the theory of Darwin.

Those who believe in the projection of intelligent life on earth, has the Bible as the "bible" of their knowledge. They reproduce quickly and are becoming increasingly convinced that other human beings all that the earth was designed, as a new theory of how the hair Matusalem:

Barry Schwartz explains why more is less in the book <The Paradox of Escolha> with his theory that criticizes so dear to our society of consumption. In times where the surplus is a sign of happiness, the variety of options is a sign of prosperity, Professor Schwartz points in those same virtues as an integral part, if not all, of our misery.

The more options the scope of our desires, the greater the doubts and uncertainties, the greater the tragedy, the bigger the fight. There are several theories that revolve around the desire and the trauma of those who do not manage to indulge their wishes, or us. The circle of desires is a maze without exit, where you start over. There is no limit to the desires, even more so when they are facilitated by a company which is formed by this type of thinking - <<THE BEST OF, THE BIGGEST, THE GREATEST>>.

The less options, the more happiness. But who can live in this monotony?

The video below is a speech that the professor was invited to present their theory, the offices of Google in Silicon Valley, the irony is that Google is one of the fundamental tools of the revolution in content and large responsible for most of the flow of information ( for more) that makes us, as individuals, each day less and more insecure of ourselves.
