Still dealing with it? This is how it has been and will remain at all times.
Wait so am I going to get eliminated by natural selection? :O
Seriously?
1-we don't wait for some to die so we can mate the others
2- not all of us marry hot people , I prefer personality
3-disabled marry too
Damn, I have a brain
Having a brain does not equate with intelligence. It just means you have one like everyone else, so I wouldn't congratulate yourself on that one.
You didn't comprehend what I wrote. Every culture on earth has standards of beauty and traits and characteristics they value. There will always be people who fall in line with those, and those who don't. If you are the latter half, a lot tend to blame the world for being so unfair to them when certain types of people who fall into those accepted categories get picked over them repeatedly... natural selection. If they simply accept this fate, and complain and stop trying, their genes will die out. Even if we look to our fellow animals, those that are deemed inferior have to find non-traditional ways to mate. They may kill the competition's children or try to sneak in and mate with the alpha's female or females, or other methods.
If one simply accepts that rejection and internalizes it and never tries to usurp or interfere with natural selection, selective breeding, what have you, then there is no chance. So as I said, many of us who don't tend to fall into said categories do try and do everything we can, instead of simply complaining, to get a leg up... i. e. working out, creating a winning personality, plastic surgery, going to school, etc.
I like how you instead of answering my comment you kept assuming stuff Just to be the right one
But I won't even respond to that childish thing
1- people don't marry according to beauty
2-your more than boobs and hips
How do you answer a "comment?" You didn't actually ask anything. You merely stated your opinion, and I stated my own which was actually a response to the things you addressed. I see then went on to say you don't respond to childish things, yet you responded which indicates that my comments were not childish at all. Thanks, because they weren't. Merely stating both facts in my first sentence, and my own opinions in the second. I'll take it that now, you have no more comments and you've still not asked any questions so as per your request or implication, we can discontinue the conversation if it's so bothersome to you. Have a good one!
I wonder if you'll still hold this natural selection "theory" tightly if you're ever diagnosed with an illness and need treatment?
I'm living with a chronic illness, so yes.
Well that's sad because I don't believe in survival forge fittest. I believe that the strong should protect the weak and we as a specie are only as strong as our weak and we have
moral duty to ensure the weak are cared for.
We're in a stage in our history where at least in the US, there is relative calm and peace. We aren't at war on our own soil. You have time to take care of the weak. However, we know from things like Katrina, and other natural disasters that most people will try to do what they can for the weak, but if push comes to shove, and it often does, the weak are left behind because for the strong to survive, they have to leave them behind and thus the strong really do go on and survive. This is how nature works. When you are dealing with a low food supply, famine, war, you cannot afford to spend all your resources caring for the weak unless you intend to perish in your efforts or at least put yourself in harms way. I'm not saying it's not noble and people shouldn't do it, it just happens in all animals.
I wouldn't call the US calm and peaceful but I get your point. You raise good points and to address your original points, I have taken myself out of the process but you do raise good points, some of which I agree with.!
Yep, some of us are always rejected because we are unfit to be selected :(
We are not animals. Macro evolution is a hoax and has never been proven. It's one of the biggest brainwashing scams ever fabricated.
We are animals, and that's all we are... to state otherwise is clearly and hilariously incorrect. We're not special just psychotic.
@Gommers Anyone who has been stupid enough to fool themselves into thinking they are an animal are beyond help and are intellectually dead.
I'm interested as to why you think we're not animals, we have the same organs as say a Lion, we have the same bones and flesh of a lion, we grow hair just like a lion, we eat drink and poo and pee just like a lion,
Why is the lion an animal and we are not? Is it some personal belief that we are superior to the lion? Haha, go into a cage with a lion and get mauled, and tell me then who is the biologically superior being, it certainly isn't us.
The only reason why are so successful as a specie is because we are intelligent. In a natural 1on1, a lion would beat a human every single time. But it's our ability to make weapons, our ability to make armour to defend ourselves, that is our key to survival.
A human being on its own, compared to most other species, is actually incredible weak and vulnerable. Only with the inventions were capable of making are we dominant. We are animals just like everything else, were merely very intelligent ones.
@Riggers Right, so a morot bike and a truck both have wheels and gears. That must mean they are related, right? LOL, you thick dimwit.
@Riggers marry me.
Well, if you want to get real, motorbikes and trucks are related, they're both vehicles and methods of transportation, but using mechanical objects isn't realy the same thing.
We're related to lions because we are both mammals, we are, biologically, made of the same stuff. Other then different bone structure and the various sizes of organs, ourselves and mammals are pretty much identical in terms of how we are built.
I mean, we have hearts, lungs, livers, stomachs, etc, so does every other mammal.
What makes us any less animals then them? How can you acknowledge the fact we are made almost exactly the same in the way we function yet for some reason think we're different?
Sure. You can look at a lion and say, "well sure we're both mammals but they walk on 4 legs we walk on two, so he's an animal and we're not", but. That lion could look at a dolphin (which is also a mammal). And he could think "well I walk on legs and he just swims so clearly he's an animal and I'm not"
Point is. We are living breathing beings just like every other mammal, we are built the same way as every other mammal, we share the same major organs as every other mammal, we eat and digest food and pee and poo the same way as every other mammal.
If you can sit there and say humans aren't animals, then nothing is an animal.
You need to get this stupid idea that we are superior by birth out of your head. We are but another form of creature in a ridiculously incomprehensible Eco system.
you have to remember. A few thousand years ago we lived in the jungles with these creatures, just somewhere along the way we moved to the comfort of our concrete jungles and rarely see the species we once coexisted with.
We are animals. But with time we have separated ourselves from the rest for our own comfort.
We have no more value to life then any other creature. We are not special, we are not unique. We are simply a smart animal.
@Riggers but if we are not animals what are we? Lol
@LiveFreeorDieHard well. We are animals. Haha. We can't possibly not be animals. I don't have an answer to that question matey. It's liking asking what water would be if it wasn't water. It's just.. Idk? Haha.
@Riggers Motorbikes and trucks are not related, and you offer no evidence for your foolish assertions.
What exactly do you know about engines?
@Love_Is_Eternal
You are actually beyond help, Your mentality of self superiority as a human is delusional.
@Riggers We dont act upon impluses. We actually think things through which allowed us to create a competitive advantage around the primitive animals that we are able to change the environment to suit us. We pull the force that rule over the animals by the hair and wipe our shoes on its face. To some extent only- mind you.
@123cheesecake you act like we're the only species that does this? Plenty of species eradicate any competition in their surroundings and build themselves habitats for their colony.
How is that any different from us building cities?
On a general wavelength, we don't do anything another species dosent also do in regards to the way we live.
The only difference is we've managed to do in in a grand scale that can trump all other species that do it.
Just because we are apex in how we function dosent make us any less animal.
And. We do act on impulses. Everything from loving to hating to sexual attraction, it's all impulse.
@Riggers Okay, touche. I cannot argue that we are animals.
However, I do not think this would excuse anyone from behaving animal like behaviour at all.
I guess thats what I'm trying to point out. We are complex enough to act on some instances outside our immediate interests (ie. we can spend time pondering complex topics instead of the bare minimum of fighting, reproducing, eating and defecating)
@123cheesecake aye, I agree. That's what I originally said.
"We are animals, albeit extremely intelligent ones". I don't disgaree that we are capable of greater intelligence and physical can do then almost any other species. Hell, no other creature could send one of their own to the moon.
I don't disgaree we are a brilliant animal, but. We're still an animal, that's what I was trying to point out to the opinion owner.
We're merely an extremely intelligent animal.
@Riggers Hopefully it stays that way, but with things going on, it feels like today's culture values impulse far more than rational decision making...
@123cheesecake aye, I agree bud.
What about ones who get people attracted initially but not in the long run?
Well judging by this take it looks like I won't be getting a girlfriend.
You're not alone, buddy. Trust me.
Better get used to it now.
I wouldn't take this to heart...
@Rissyanne You believe there's a flaw in this take?
I just don't think everything is written in stone
LOL THIS IS A JOKE
I HATE EVOLUTION
