>Fitness in a world of more than a few is entirely dependent on symbiotic, cohesive, gentile (in the French sense, though Christ is an inordinately germane example of kindness too) behavior.

There are at least 2 levels of fitness/survival - an individual inside its group/society and a group/society among other groups/societies. While the "symbiotic, cohesive, gentile" may do well inside its own society, would the society consisting of only such individuals do well when pitted against another society? Or would having some amount of the non-"symbiotic, cohesive, gentile" individuals in the mix help the survival of that society?
