So I took a look at the entry on reekrend's journal that everyone has been talking about.  Let me start off here with one word:  TYPICAL.  A bunch of pseudo-intellectual whiny kids and steel-trap minded morons sitting in their comfortable air-conditioned homes discussing "natural selection" that think they've earned the right to condemn thousands of people because they shop at Hot Topic.  Natural selection is about passing inheritable traits to your offspring that allow them to survive in an environment better than their predecesors.  So how exactly are we watching "natural selection" in process?  Did the human lifespan from birth to natural death suddenly reduce to days or hours?  I think we are watching local adaptation to a situation, but this whole natual selection discussion is bullshit.  As I said, TYPICAL.

I wonder how many of these self-proclaimed evolutionary experts left town when Isabel was coming?  How about Floyd?  Hugo?  Gloria?  Hazel? Or maybe even Camille for those morons out in the western part of the state.  How many of you would be prepared to leave eveything you've worked to build in your life behind?  How many people COULDN'T leave because they had no transport or no money?  kamera_shy was in Norfolk during Floyd and couldn't leave for that reason.  If Floyd had been a major hurricane, should she have died for "natural selection"?  How many of you intellectual and emotional children would have been whining about natural selection then?  It's not a possibilty that we'll get a devastating hurricane on the Virginia coast one day, it's a CERTAINTY.  How do you think Willoughby Spit got there?  Are any of you truly prepared to abandon your lives should that happen?  Or will you sit around drinking PBR smoking cloves posting journal entries about how cloudy and windy it's getting?

The truth is all of these supposed "natural selection" and "darwinism" people are the ones that are getting knocked out of the gene pool.  Why do you think none of them want kids?  It's nature's way of saying YOUR time is up, don't haul your garbage any further down the evolutionary highway.
