5.1 Is it the happiness of the individual or of the "pack"? 5.3 Isn't it a bit contrary to the purpose of this site to vote on beliefs of evidence? If it is evidence you wouldn't need to vote on it.

This may sound rather pedantic, but perhaps it would be more beneficial to extol the pursuit of enjoyment rather than happiness. Enjoyment is an involved process and an active state of becoming, whereas happiness is merely a static state of being.

Actually, regimes based on the scientific method don't have a particularly good track record. Social science does best when it's descriptive.
