No. That is just the point. The number of human offspring is partly determined by humans (by their technology, their artificial practice and their social policy), whereas the number of all other living beings is determined by nature. If the number of human offspring was regulated only by nature, then the current number of the humans would be merely one billion or one million or or even less.
Non-human living beings are not capable of doing what human living beings are capable of (in that said case).
Non-human living beings are not capable of doing what human living beings are capable of (in that said case).
We already have the ISS (the better example):
The planet Mars has no artificial environment. So again: We already have the ISS (the better example):
He is not the richest man on earth.
But that does not mean that it is impossible to circumvent the natural selection.
Believe me, it is not an artificial distinction.
But that has nothing to do with the humans’ artificial environment. A “successful strategy” is not necessarily an artificial environment.
That does not change anything of my statement: Intelligence is an advantage and can lead to a culture that circumvents nature successfully. I did not say that sauropods were intelligent. Intelligence is one advantage of many advantages. So there are other advantages too.
Note that I am not saying that humans are more successful than sharks or sauropods. I am saying that humans are much more intelligent than all other living beings and that they can circumvent the so-called “natural selection”.
Noam Chomsky is an interesting linguist.
Again: I am not saying that humans will forever be more successful than other living beings and that they will live forever. I am saying that humans are much more intelligent than all other living beings and that they can circumvent the so-called “natural selection”.
So Satoshi Kanazawa knows what I mean: survival of the unfittest, survival of the disadvantaged groups. It is a fact that intelligence is an evolutionary advantage.
Also, intelligence and altruistic sociability are correlated with each other. (Cp.: youtube.com/watch?v=02vvYDxXQ3w&t=369s). So we can conclude that the number of humans will shrink, if the average IQ is shrinking.
Again: I am not saying that humans will forever be more successful than other living beings and that they will live forever. I am saying that humans are much more intelligent than all other living beings and that they can circumvent the so-called “natural selection”.
You are missing the point.
You are missing the point again. Remember that the topic of this thread is “Free Government” and that I was referring to the topic by saying that humans are capable of circumventing nature, which means a form of relatively free government as compared to the “government nature”.
Again: I am not saying that humans will forever be more successful than other living beings and that they will live forever. I am saying that humans are much more intelligent than all other living beings and that they can circumvent the so-called “natural selection”.
