I recognize evolution itself makes no moral claims or philosophic claims although an individual might derive some from evolution, but is just a theory of origins. (I suppose by virtue of being a theory of origins it would have to rule out other theories of origins like Creationism).In the section below, it's almost as if you never wrote the section above......
Quote:If there is no value to human life, as the Mulsim poster described, which is objective then eugenics as I understand it would be totally valid. Why should the mentally ill pass on their genetics, or addictive personalities or those with limited mental capacity? I suppose the idea that these people should not live is in itself a value judgment and would be unfounded, but personally I find it valid and can thus only apply it to myself.You "find" it valid, despite being unfounded? Why mental illness? Why shouldn't everyone without my specific eye color be prevented from passing on their genetics? No, no, better...why not everyone except me...because I'm clearly the pinnacle of human evolutionary development and despite that statement being entirely unfounded...I "find" it to be valid..........
You're being silly.
Personally, I live for legacy, achievement, good vegetable soup with my family, and crushing newbs in LOL. It's not a "pick one" question.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
