A Darwinian Valentine

- Carter P. Jumao-as -

Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution is an infinitive mind-boggling discovery just as it is mind-blowing to. It delves into the heart of human nature with emphasis on its evolutionary development.

It is so enigmatically wide in scope, just as human nature is universal regardless of race or whatever category the world has created for its own human inhabitants.

Darwin has lots of controversial and at the same time provocative contentions. One of them is that every normal human mind enters the world bristling with highly specialized problem solving equipment.

These capacities stream down the course of development as surely as the toddler’s first faltering step.

Darwin’s realm of ideas is central on the gene, its variations as it is transmitted from parents to offsprings as time goes by.

He does not point an absolute reason for the changes or evolution in his terms; so it seems that the design has no apparent designer.

Though Darwinian science is still fledging, based upon Darwinists, deduction on human nature selection, they already are pretty confident of some things. One of them is sex.

In this dimension, they say that men are willing to have sex with a complete stranger and that we are even more willing to do it with an imperfect one, too, most possibly under consent and attraction, or even at times, without it.

Another American study found that for a brief encounter, men were willing to drop their standards as low as their trousers, ready to dispense with intelligence, humor, charm, honesty and emotional stability.

The theory of evolution can be expressed most simply as: Evolution = genetics + time.

It may also be noteworthy to say that in the course of human development, Darwinians say that monks and other religious people tend to live longer than those who are deemed to have a “normal” sex life.

In the light of human reproduction at certain stages of the human life-span for them it is evolutionary suicide to stay alive and have few children.

By having few children, you actually hinder genetic differentiation and you slow down eventual evolution. I thought it may sound shocking, it is actually a complication.

Human life is not only about reproduction and having children, there is more to just having offspring. (Thank God, Maslow and humanistic psychology are here to stay.) They also declare that we have evolved to be lavishly altruistic on our kin. Example, a kidney donation to a brother. Though in a family all throughout the stages of life, spring among brother evolutionary entails also competition; and it also goes without saying – the phrase “survival of the fittest” - is apt in this notion.
