520 | |a Dawkins's concept of the meme pool, essentially equivalent to Popper's World 3, is considered as an expression in modern terms for what Averroës knew as the active intellect, an immortal entity feeding into, or even creating, the passive intellect of consciousness.

It also emphasizes the virtues of memetic conservation in relation to vanishing cultures. | ||
