What about the evidence of psychology?  Ths is not as “hard” a science as genetics.  Geneticists can examine genes, even “splice” them into new forms.  What psychologists do is look at the way people behave and thing, test them, psychoanalyze them, conduct experiments to see how people react to different experiences, and try to come to reasonable conclusions about why people behave the way they do.  There is nothing in the findings of psychologists to make any convincing argument for an instinct for the violent aggressiveness of war.  That’s why Freud, the founder of modern psychology, had to look for evidence of the destructive instinct in history.
