They found some retarded kids from Turkey that walk with their feet and hadns, on all fours, and they say it's because of backwards evolution. LOL
Come on man, this is the sh.t I was referring to. Listen to the profesor from USC, he says it's because of gene probability. The kids are retarded for christ sake, they are probably the offspring of a brother or sister or two cousins.
Species are just a cause of DNA probability not because of evolution. I do believe in survival of the fittest, thats a given. Once on eartn if your species is on top of the food chain their is no way it is going to become extinct, but scientist theorize "oh the great white is so perfect it has never evolved". LOL |
Yeah, I've had to watch movies on kids like that.
It is not because of backwards mutation, its just bad luck and like you said possibly some portion of inbreeding.
Speciation is an "unintentional" consequence of evolution. It is not that best for the individual because your genes are kind of "trapped" with that one species. But it is more efficient for all life and allows for more life. For me it is bad that I cannot mate with a cow but if I could then there wouldn't be cows and humans, there would be cumans or something like that or probably neither of us would be here.
That idea of ideal species is from the ancient Greeks. The idea that every species is perfect and all of that. Totally off, they also thought that species never went extinct. Now that we have seen that billions of species have gone extinct, the idea of an ideal species is just part of our history that we laugh at now.
