cloudybay Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 natural selection seems to have gone out of the window for the human race these days we're collectively growing weaker, as the elements in society with less to contribute are spawning like the proverbial rabbits, while those whose genes and ways of being make them better candidates for parenthood often breed later and less Natural selection, pays the most, to the feckless, by the majority. My future will depend upon the contents of the baby buggies being pushed around by Mother's in Clinton Cards, Poundland and Netto. God help me and all who sail in me.

Evolution only selects for intelligence if it's a trait which increases the ability to pass on genes. Whilst we may dislike where nature would take us, that doesn't mean that evolution isn't working, it's just not following the path we might choose ourselves for the race.

Pingpang Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Weaker in what way? chavtastic i need say no more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davyboy Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 I didn't mention any tests. It's just a general measure. I personally am firmly of the opinion that 50% of people are as thick as a loaf of bread. Is that Nimble or Rye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pingpang Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 chavtastic i need say no more lol, except that natural selection isn't helping these chavs breed like they are it's unnatural selection, driven by man made technology Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swan_Vesta Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Either the human race is headed towards an evolutionary cul-de-sac or council type, dole scum vermin hold the key to the next leap in Darwinian progression. If claiming benefit, knocking up teenagers and getting imprisoned are the key indicators towards recognising the precocious jump in evolution then I guess that the hoi polloi are exhibiting all those traits necessary for them to be hailed as the new super race. Personally I suspect that without anyone to pay for their dole, educate their rat children or operate on their hepatitis ridden peers then these hideous chuds will die out within a generation.

Cyclone Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 chavtastic i need say no more No, but I'm sure you do actually know that fitness in evolutionary turns is measured by the ability to pass on genes. If chavs pass on their genes more effectively, by having larger families, then unfortunately they are better adapted to this environment than non chavs. Evolution only ever moves forward, at least by it's measure. It isn't interested in faster, stronger, better, smarter. It's only interest (I use the word loosely) is in more effective procreation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 It isn't interested in faster, stronger, better, smarter. It's only interest (I use the word loosely) is in more effective procreation.But it seems, only in human terms. Perhaps we've got a problem with the idiom? Perhaps we should be a little more animistic? Carousel anyone? *in response to your earlier challenges I'm playing devils advocate in this thread.

md25 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Also: 90% of numbers ending in zero are completely made up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
