      > Perspective-taking has become a main focus of studies on moral judgments. Recent fMRI studies have demonstrated that individual differences in brain activation predict moral decision making. In particular, pharmacological studies highlighted the crucial role for the neuropeptide oxytocin in social behavior and emotional perception. In the present study N = 154 participants were genotyped for a functional polymorphism (rs2268498) in the promoter region of the OXTR gene. Significant difference has been found between carriers and non-carriers of the C-allele in exculpating agents for accidental harms (F(1,152) = 11.49, p = .001, η2 = .07) indicating that carriers of the C-allele rated accidentally committed harm as significantly more blameworthy than non-carriers. This is the first study providing evidence for a genetic contribution to moral judgments.

      So no, as usual, it’s genetics!

      Dear Mr @chrisbarmonde,

      By smiling this response you acknowledge that you wholeheartedly agree with the following statements:

      - the reason why dinosaurs went extinct is because they were lame. From now on your favorite creatures will be ponies and unicorns.

      - Sidney Crosby is the best hockey player in the history of hockey, and the San Jose Sharks are a bunch of uninspired figure skaters trying to look tough.

      - hackers/engineers/programmers who don't drink coffee are just poseurs and zuckerberg wannabes.

      - lava is one of the most boring natural phenomenon we are given to experience on earth.

      - Americans, starting with you, will give up their right to refer to American Football as Football and diligently acknowledge that the real football is the one played by Zidane, Platini and the like.

      - dogs are smarter and overall better animals than cats.

      - The iPhone and iOS are the jewels of technology. Android on the other hand is a POS.

      - Skype is your favorite software on Mac OS X.

      - punk music is for sissies.

      - video games are the reason why we have a violent and dumb as fuck American society.

      - M. Night Shyamalan is the best director of all time.

      - Breaking bad and Adventure time are junk TV shows.

      - Facebook likes are more values than Formspring smiles.

      That is all.
      For now.

      Oh wait, you also agree that you won't comment on this thread to deny the
      aforementioned facts.

      Yours truly,
      – @pims

      Shocking, right?

      But you know, I’m not really surprised. After having seen what this world is capable of, atrocities like Matrix 2&3, Microsoft Windows Me, Sarah Palin and Madonna singing during the halftime of the SuperBowl, what can you expect?

      Fiscal Year 2011 for Symantec
      - GAAP Revenue of $6.19 billion
      - Non-GAAP Operating Margin of 24.8 percent
      - Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share of $1.42
      - Cash Flow from Operations of $1.79 billion

      and they offer 50k for the only valuable Intellectual Property asset they have? lulz. 50,000 lulz!

      I bet @mikepreuss that I would beat him at a ping pong game. He won. That’s definitely not bribery.
