You misunderstand how evolution works. It is not a progression towards perfection.
You're conflating biological evolution with creationism / 'intelligent design'.
- JoeAltmaier 16y agoAny anyway, how do you explain going from single-celled creatures to working organisms with a trillion cells? Darwin claims species are driven by their environment to better compete - is that not something like perfecting them?
- AndrewDucker 16y agoNo. Perfection implies a scale with a top end. We compete for spaces in a niche, we don't compete to be all round "better".
- JoeAltmaier 16y agoOk, but Pinnacle describes a local maximum, which seems to describe us perfectly.
- JoeAltmaier 16y agoNo, I'm being funny. Somebody else is using words like "conflating".
