Evolution doesn't just skip races

[The Question]

Huh???
And just because ice cream has eggs and sugar in it doesn't mean it's fattening. LOL


Are you even listening to yourself?

How is natural selection and survival of the fittest racist? The healthiest, most adept members of a speicese in a certain cituation are the most likely to survive and pass on their traits to their offspring. It has nothing to do with race.

try to say it without being insulting--Dew

Natural selection is not about health anymore for humans. Its about intelligence and the cunning to use it. The ones whom are clever enough to use whatever social system they live in to rise to the top in their society. They are the fittest and the strongest. They have the power to completely destroy those whom oppose them without having to even meet that person.

Health... lol

 

[The Question]

It is also about health. Someone who is, for some reason or another, imune to AIDs, is more likely to survive and pass that trait on to his children.

Being immune to AIDs doesn't help you when someone has taken away your job, your home and any chance of you fulfilling your dreams... lol. pwnt

 

[hippy fascist]

but if you have aids anyone you **** unprotected will be infected, so you can't have babies so you can't pass on your DNA.

Ha Double pwnt

 

[celldog]

So now evolutions rascist.

Celldog you really are a stupid mother****er. You come on and make some grandiose claim about how unjust the world is (usually accompanied by a cut and pasted article that is either massively biased or too complicated for you to genuinely understand) and yet fail to take on anyones counterpoints and kiss the ass of anyone who agrees with you.

And of course when your not screaming rascism you're slagging off muslims or the french, which isn't rascist how?

Oh now I get why you hate evolution

Cause you're a waste of perfectly good DNA!



Now shut the **** up and stop making pointless stupid threads

And this was a nice contribution??

 

[hippy fascist]

And this was a nice contribution??

OK then celldog, how is it you can complain about rascism yet slag off the french for being french and the muslims for their choice of religion.

If you can provide a coherent answer I promise never to flame you again

That has little to do with survival. One can lose their job and their home and still survive. They'd just have a crappy life.

 

[tomahawk53]

So now evolutions rascist.

Darwin's book "The Origin of Species" is actually titled "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life".

The title alone makes it sound racist so a lot of people think that it is.

 

[chaseter]

Some races are more adapted than others in their parts of origin. Take for example tribal Africans. Their skin is so dark as to prevent skin cancer due to the amount of sun they receive daily from their prolonged exposure. That is an adaptive advantage. People who live in the Andes and higher mountain regions have larger hearts so that they can process more oxygen in the air at the higher alitutudes. That is a distinct race with a distinct adaptive advantage. There are tons of examples. But to answer the question, I do believe different races are superior in their own ways. I just think the white race has been the dominant race for a while(see examples in History).

I am not a racist nor an evolutionary theorist before you flame me. Something has to be working for the white race to be so succesful. But that is certainly changing.

 

[The Question]

Not really. It was just a luck of the draw type of thing. Europeans found the tribal africans, who didn't have guns. We did. We took over and enslaved them. Things just went downhill from there. And the only reason we had guns is because of the Chinese, who invented gunpowder and who we had trade with first.

Inventing gunpowder isn't an evolutionary advantage.

 

[Darren Daring]

I would think the people who believe in the master race wouldn't really believe in evolution.

 

[chaseter]

I don't think their is a master race...I just think every race has their own advantage. I then went on to say that the white race has just been the dominant race in recent history due to non-adaptive advantages. I don't believe I came from a monkey though.

Okay, people who make explanations for racism don't really believe in evolution.

I don't get what you are getting at???

 

[The Question]

Inventing gunpowder isn't an evolutionary advantage.

I didn't say it was. What I was saying was that the only reason the Europeans and those of their descent have had a major advantage over various minorities in the western world is because we had guns before they did.

 

[Darren Daring]

Really? I thought I laid it on pretty thick.

 

[chaseter]

I think it was because of more technology period. Gun powder is a great example but the printing press is another, pennicilin, etc...Technology has been the major reason why the white race has triumphed. Now if they were born with guns instead of arms...that would be an evolutionary advantage.

Health... lol

I disagree with this. I believe that there are a great number of people in this world who are highly intelligent but choose not to do whatever it takes to be "on top". Many, infact, would argue that the system is flawed and work to bring attention to issues that might help to change things for the better. Noam Chomsky is an example. By your logic, Paris Hilton is one of the most intelligent individuals on the planet.

Actually you're both wrong, europe succeeded because of two things, slavery and going to nations such as pakistan, stripping out all their natural resources and giving them worthless trinkets in exchange. Europe got powerful by ****ing over the rest of the world

Therefore it's survival of the devious ****s

However, as I said, the whites didn't invent gunpowder. They simply had trade with China. If the African tribes had trade with China, things would be reversed. Europe wasn't that technologically ahead of Africa for a long time before out weapons upgraded through trade and we were the guys with the biggest (and only) guns. Hell, many African tribes were forging metal when Europeans were still rubbing sticks together for warmth.

We were talking about how slavery happened in the first place. We were able to enslave Africans because we had bigger and better weapons.

How the hell do you think they were able to do those things...Magic beans? Technology gave them the ability to do so. Why would Europe want to go to Pakistan? It was India that was the center of the Spice Trade and the hub of Europe's outside power and wealth.
