Isn't it odd that human beings are the only specie to save the weak?
If we keep healing the weak, we will fuck up evolution.

But won't we fuck up evolution by doing so? I mean, in the past we didn't have these equipments, and so we've evolved into the creature we are today, and scientists tell us that we are still evolving to the better, only if we keep saving the weak, we will in fact evolve to the worse. Saving the "weak" has benefited us. Survival of the fittest has more to do with random circumstance than who is bigger, stronger, faster, and smarter. There is value in the gene pool of even the "weak" and saving them allows us to benefit from that value. The premise is incorrect however. We are a slave to evolution. Even if we build computers to incubate superhumans who were never even conceived the "natural way," it would still only be because we've evolved to do so. That we are more likely to save the "weak" among us is a result of evolution, not contradictory to it. And other animals do it as well as humans quite often, we are not the only ones. 2

It's just not true. Many parents of many species save their young who are too weak to fend for themselves. And there are situations where one species will even care for another weaker species. Found this interesting 1

In most species, when someone is weak, it will probably be caught and eaten by another animal. Thus is the specie getting stronger and stronger, as the weakest link always disappears. With the human specie, it seems like 18 year old's drink their minds out and pass out in a lake and drown there, while the weak 75 year old schizophrenic cripple with Parkinson's disease sit quietly and play bridge in a quiet safe retirement home. 1

This is nonsense and it is amazing so many people fail to realize it. We have vast numbers of intelligent life forms and protecting the weak is a very common trait among them. This not only frequently and regularly happens inside a specific species, what is truly amazing to me is when Predators will on occasion save a Weak Member of a Species they Prey Upon for Food. It is truly amazing. Humans are just an animal, one of a vast number of animals, and we have all evolved from the same beginning intelligent source which almost certainly began with small pieces of RNA which could figure out how to replicate without any other intelligent life existing. We have all evolved from the same origins under the guidance of RNA/DNA Swarm Minds which trace their origins to those first RNA Swarm Minds which formed randomly. Yes, evolution has been intelligent and thus "Intelligent Design" is correct, except not from an all knowing GOD, but from the many various RNA/DNA Swarm Minds which have been intelligently struggling hard to evolve into more intelligent life forms. The Human Species has currently won this competitive race, AT THIS TIME, but all other life is part of our development. The saving of weaker members of a species is an extremely wide spread trait among all species. It is just ignorance of the evolution of life to think otherwise. Mind you, this does not mean the reverse has not also been common and that overall for any species to evolve it must survive, but a great many evolutionary decisions have had NOTHING to do with improving the chances of survival and instead have had some other reason behind that evolutionary change. |
