Could this be the sociological implication of the Red Queen problem as
seen in Artificial Intelligence research or am I tired, at work and
over-medicated on Actifid?
No, its the Red Queen problem. Actually, this does have memetic
implication: the very philosophy/paradigm/science (take your pick) of
memetics tends to shift the `goal line' pretty extensively on every
iteration of analysis, and individually based on disputant. This
contrary to the public face of most major religions; could the
difference in presentation (and the lack of problem we seem to have with
it as a disputant group, cheerfully and openly sharing `how we see
things' without much urge to /convince/ but more to `communicate
freely') impair the Church of Virus in spreading through the population
at large?
