As a rule, the best policy for our life is to do as we were 10,000 years ago. There are 3 examples again:
Ex. 704. 3 Cigarettes: 1 Mutation
According to a report titled "U.S. gene study reveals toll of heavy smoking", CHICAGO, May 26 (Reuters), the genetic mutation can occur at 1 gene mutated per 3 cigarettes smoked.
Based on the 10,000-years-ago norm, it is inevitably so because our ancestors did not smoke in 10,000 years ago. Hence, we do not have their successful experiences saved on our DNA to cope with the smoking. Thus, smoking is an invalid happiness, which does us no good. (1-3)
Ex. 705. Synthetic Life: Danger!
According to a report titled "Researchers Say They Created a Synthetic Cell' " in The New York Times (nytimes.com, May 21, 2010), J. Craig Venter successfully synthesized a living cell, which can propagate their offspring or keep its DNA alive.
Based on the 10,000-years-ago norm, it is a super alien species, which bring us bad as well as good. It is a dangerous invalid happiness. (1-3)
Ex. 706. Hot Earth: Massacre
According tothe article titled "An adaptability limit to climate change due to heat stress " in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, published online before print May 3, 2010 (doi: 10.1073/pnas.0913352107), S. C. Sherwood & M Huber say human will be unable to live in most regions on our earth any more due to the weather warming in about 100 years.
Based on the 10,000-years-ago norm, the best policy is to quit the pursuit of invalid happiness to keep our earth from hot. (1-3)
