[5/5] Episode 2: The Genius of Darwin HQ & Full Screen

[calsonick]

I have not watched this yet, so my thoughts before they are potentially influenced by Dawkins are as follows

This is a topic which I have wondered about for years. Humans have the capacity to be altruistic because it is of benefit to them, however there is no such thing as moral, or right and wrong. Morals are ever changing humans prove that time and again, the proof is evident both in the present day and certainly throughout history.

6:36 to 7:20 was hard. The brutality in Dawkins logic was a breath of fresh air.

Very interesting documentation

Let us make natural selection :)

People are just getting what they can for themselves out there like stealing other men's wives and running away somewhere and vice versa. From an evolutionist view what reason would people have to refrain from doing that?

As far as evolution goes were only here to pass our genes on so is it wrong if you have a whole load of partners and made babies with them and left them kids and moved on with other partners do it again just to live the pleasurable life away from responsibility?

In the long run society would improve if we were all nice to one another but because there are people that don't NEED to be nice to others they don't bother because they can "get away with it". Why do you think our governments are cheating us with our money and so on.

Why is a whole load of people broke and the bankers get millions in bonuses? I thought we had an economy crisis, where are all the millions coming from?

I doubt we can escape natural selection. Every time someone dies and someone else has a child it's natural selection in work. Let's stop to die, then we escape.

Imagine how useless we'd be if we didn't continue to adapt to our environment. We wouldn't want to "escape" it.
