Unnatural Selection.......

[Blackbriar 8,569]

Here's something to think about......

 

Are humans driving evolution in animals? - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-35462335

[cragman 2,798]

I'd say so. Natures always trying to find ways of staying one step ahead of man.

[Truther 1,579]

Another good argument for population reduction, if we don't do it ourselves mother nature will do it for us eventually. Unfortunately the leaders of our society's are genetic f**k ups who want numbers to exploit, their thinking is now a polar opposite of how we evolved in cooperative/social groups. More people, more pressure on our planet and its resources.........Insane.

[kanny 21,069]

Going on the fact that animals evolve and change to there environment and the fact that we as a species are changing the environment then I'd be inclined to say yes.

that could be true are ancient ancestors that hunted would have taken the weakest because it was easier,

Its the same for pheasant shooting by shooting the high birds leaving the low ones your only left with low flying birds to then breed off every year...(I know some game farmer buy in wild cocks and over winter hens to try to off set this but even so )

Someone would need to define evoloution first, what does the writer mean by it, secondly mans genetically modifying food or animals will end in tears for us, as mick says, nature is smarter than people think

Nature laughs last

The fact that people need to ponder this and write articles about it. . . . . . makes me realise how dumb and unobservant people are.

Are we as humans unevolving? For the first time in the history of life we are encouraging the weak, thick, feckless,unhealthy, lazy to breed while the workers are having less kids.

So were does that leave " evoloutionism " as a philosophy dido?

I dont think this is the first time the weak, or unhealthy, in your words, has bred an had children, so were does that leave evoloutioism dido.

 

Not looking an argument, just curious to your answers.

But now it's being encouraged....

 

It's black and white to me....like breeding livestock....breed from shiit get shiit

Trying hard to get another evo discussion going aren't you mate

 

This topics about mans influence on our surroundings, observable changes in things around us, things that we made change. Scientific facts............Moths becoming darker after the pollution of the industrial revolution, the blackthorn being the ancestor of all plum trees, altered by man, dogs becoming different breeds because of man..............No Darwinism here, just facts

As for 'unnatural selection'. . . . how the feck is it 'unnatural', human beings are a part of nature, the natural world etc, and our influence / impact upon other creatures is part of a natural evolutionary cycle.
