Every day in small ways Darwin brings a smile to my face.
\_ This is so tragic!
How can you find this
humorous?!?
You sound young, spawn. Soon you will _/
understand our ways and become stronger.
\_ No. Darwinism would've killed the woman. She can still reproduce
and propagate her stupidity.
\_ Regardless, she's less likely to reproduce.
\_ You don't understand how it works. It's not black and
white like that. It's about the odds and long term chances.
With only one arm, she's _less likely_ to reproduce. If
she does, her children are _less likely_ to survive to do
their own reproduction. Her mate is _less likely_ to have
pro-survival genes as well, since only a loser would have
a woman like this. Her children, having been born to two
stupid people, may manage to spawn, but then _those_
children are less likely to improve the tree, either. It
will work out fine in the long run. Darwin is alive and
well.
\_ You don't understand how it works. Stupid genes
sometimes result in disaster like above. However,
sometimes is
\_ I stand corrected.
\_ Why does someone keep deleting this? This is a
simplified but factual statement about how
Darwinism works in the real world as applied to
human beings. This is not a troll and this is not
the typical mindless motd drivel, nor is it an
inappropriate topic for the motd. If this is some
religious fish-on-bumper whacko deleting this, then
seek your church's assistance for your weak faith,
don't mindlessly censor the ideas of others. |

| www.denver-rmn.com/news/0521tigr3.shtml The 28-year-old woman was flown to Swedish Medical Center in Englewood, where she was in critical condition Saturday evening and undergoing surgery for her injuries. A woman who answered the phone at the Prairie Wind Animal Refuge late Saturday afternoon said owner Michael Jurich was not available and hung up. Jurich opened the center, northeast of Kiowa, as a home for refugees from zoos, fur farms and hunting clubs. It houses scores of animals, including lions, tigers and bears. The woman's name was withheld while her husband tried to reach other family members Saturday evening. The refuge has a license from the Colorado Division of Wildlife, Shaw said. Roughly 20 people were at the refuge when the woman was injured. He said the Denver woman, who has been a volunteer at the center for six years, was talking about the animals with a visitor. She was asked whether the refuge's operators ever had problems with people sticking their hands in the cages. Within moments, it moved further up the woman's arm, biting, and finally ripped off the limb at the shoulder. |
