1. Taking a Cue From Ants on Evolution of Humans

I have to agree with beeline on this.

It seems to me that "Group Selection" has to be the effect and not the cause. So, natural selection working at the gene level is selecting behaviors that enhance the individuals' capabilities to survive--including, forming and acting in groups that enhance that survivability. But it still has to happen at the genetic level where those traits are selected.
