The Intuitive Phase of the Brain

Your intellect is part of your birthright, which includes an insatiable need for meaning. You inherited intuition out of a different need that is just as powerful: the need for values. Right and wrong, good and bad, are so basic that the brain is wired for them. From a very early age, infants seem to display intuitive behavior in this department. Even before the toddling stage, a baby who sees his mother drop something will offer to pick it up for her—helping is a built-in response. A two-year-old can be shown a puppet play in which one puppet does nice things while the other does the opposite. Nice involves playing and cooperating; not nice involves being selfish and complaining. When asked which puppet it likes best, a child will pick the “good” puppet much more often than the “bad” one. We have evolved with brain responses for morality.
