RE: How To Live Up To Your Maximum Potential: Chapter 1 - Wake Up & Smell The Deception

I liked your text, so don't take this the wrong way, but I have a correction to make:

Evolution can't really stall. It's a misconception that evolution has a "direction", and thats is always for the better.

Evolution is just a process that exists, and happens. If being stupid, for instance, makes a species survive better in an environment, then stupid creatures are the winners in evolution. Evolution, despite darwinist claims, is not "survival of the strongest", but "survival of the fittest"; those best suited for their environment will flourish, while others perish.

But "fittest" doesn't always mean what people like us think it does.

Ah. I appreciate the feedback and I'll have a whack at re-wording it sir.

Thank you for pointing this out. You have a valid point and I'll revise it here shortly.

Edit: That better? I truly appreciate you correcting me without coming off as a dickhead.
Need more folks like you helping morons like me keep the facts straight so I don't look completely nuts. :)

Heh, it's unfortunate that on the internet we have to thank people for acting in a civil manner. :p
