(It is a good time to remember some evolution principles.)

1. Random Chance. The asteroid hits the Earth and we are either standing in the right place or the wrong place.
2. Random Reflex. A car swerves and speeds directly at us. We only have time to jump once. To the left is death and to the right is safety, but we cannot know this until after.
3. Conditioned Reflex. We train in the martial arts so that if we get jumped from behind in a dark alley, our reflexes are more likely to keep us alive.
4. Random Routines. Perhaps it is just one of our little quirks to double check the doors and windows in our house before going to bed, to be sure they are locked and secure. But last night, a serial murderer checked our doors before going to the neighbors to find one open.
5. Conditioned Routines. Growing up, our mother was on us twenty-four hours a day to wash our hands regularly, not touch or rub our faces in public, and use a handkerchief. Unsurprisingly, my family did not catch the last pandemic that ripped through the population.

**All of these points also apply to the group behaviors of packs and communities.

Humans are pack animals. Thus, if the reflexes or routines are not already in place and well practiced, it is very unlikely that a person will be able to protect themselves once the event begins. Even if we are capable of mustering the discipline and awareness at the last moment to adapt a safer routine, we are only as strong as the weakest link in our household and group of friends.

For those of you who night not understand this yet… it is these conditioned routines which is the purpose of religion in the first place. Even though, just like anything, religions are corrupted by power and other perversions over time,.. making many of the routines about power and not survival.
