"Are we just the product of our selfish animalist genes? Or can we learn to do better, like liberals like me say?"
Well, right off the bad, your question is loaded .
"Learning to do better" is the goal of any human with some level of basic principles, and that certainly includes conservatives. If anything, it's conservatives who are more likely to engage in "self-directed warfare" rather than focusing more on societal ideals.
What conservatives are really most concerned with is the natural human tendency toward self-destructive impulses, on instincts that push people to short term gratification rather than long term prosperity.
