I'm still learning, but my current sense is that the mechanistic claims are disproven given current understanding of biology and evolution, but the narrative is compelling enough (just like you've said) that it persists.... I had a similar response to the first point — the compulsion to procreate is life - it's the least selfish thing one can do. We went from single celled organisms to fish to apes to us because of that compulsion (along with a bunch of other stuff).... Life is happening because a jillion people/animals from the beginning of time have strived to grow and improve and pass things on. I like life unfolding, and I think it's beautiful when we pass gifts through generations.... yeah I sometimes think people cling onto the idea of capitalism as a process because they don’t know how to keep adjusting their aim to what they actually value....
