I agree this isn't related to empathy or judgment. It sounds to me like your "spheres" are related to altruism. If that is true, do you think their origins are genetic or memetic (IOW, biological or cultural)? A demonstrated capacity, after all, could spring from either source.

I wonder if "wisdom" == "inductive" and "intelligence" == "deductive" |
