If you ever need a little bit of extra cynicism in your life, take a class in animal behavior. Basically everything that animals do, including humans, is to increase their reproductive success. It's all for teh babiez! Even emotions can be explained as an evolved system of checks and balances by a species that engages in high risk reciprocity

Cognitive dissonance?
It's such a strange concept to me. It's a human system of comfort--our natural reaction to feeling like we screwed up (because we have). (I'm aware you know this.) It seems to be good for us, but it participates in systems like the one you're talking about. And it allows us all to be hypocritical. I have mixed feelings, really.

Too little too late! However, good parenthetical grammar.

I really meant it! Srsly! I may be belated but I truely ponder about these things. (Also, I love parenthetical grammar. It's kind of cute.)
