Survival of the Unfit

Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution (often referred to as The Theory of Survival of the Fittest) describes the positive effects resulting from any “pressure” on an animal species that removes the least fit among the species and allows only the most fit of the species to reproduce. Many of us are well aware of this “Survival of the Fittest” theory, but few are aware that Darwin also makes mention of the negative effects resulting from unlimited reproduction of a species’ least fit when the weak, the lazy, and the stupid are left unchecked.

We like to think otherwise, but our species, Homo sapiens, isn’t that long “out of the trees” and the same laws of nature that affect all of God’s creatures apply equally to us. If we were to observe any other species that had been allowed to reproduce without limitations, we would know immediately what the consequences will be.

Whenever the weak; lazy; and stupid of a species are allowed to reproduce unimpeded by predators that feed off the weak; lazy; and stupid, they soon outnumber the strong, productive, and intelligent. When the weak/lazy/stupid dominate the gene pool, the entire population becomes weak/ lazy/stupid, and then the population collapses.

In the past, when collapses occurred within human populations, they were referred to as a “Malthusian Collapse.” Thomas Malthus, a Nineteenth Century Economist, thought these collapses were caused simply because past civilizations had reached a point where human populations could no longer produce sufficient food supplies to feed themselves, but he never pinned down the exact reason for the food shortages.

We now think some of these collapses of past human civilizations may have occurred when the unproductive weak/lazy/stupid greatly outnumbered the strong/productive/intelligent of the population. In other words, the majority of the population became too lazy to perform the work necessary to provide for themselves and what was left of the strong/productive/intelligent refused to continue to do it for them.

These collapses have occurred at frequent intervals throughout human history, and Western Civilization is, in my humble opinion, currently on the cusp of one of these collapses.

It’s also 60% fat

[CodeToad]

Too many muslims.

[MNDude]

dang! Where is that picture from?

[PATRIOT1876]

More muslims = lower IQ.

-Taqiyya’s Theorem

[Disambiguator]

I’m not sure. It’s one of those things that crops up once in a while, but it sure gets the point across.

The migrants are probably the smart ones.

No...no. Nor can we say that about the US and the huge influx of legal and illegal immigration over the last 40 yrs.

That would be raciss!

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

Embrace the diversity.

See the article right below this one, stating that twice as many Jihadis from Britain are fighting in the ME, than the native Brits themselves.

Methinks that you should check your reading comprehension.
Or reread the article.

Actually, the headline says it all...

There are now more than twice as many British Muslims fighting for Islamic State than there are serving in the British armed forces

[pilipo]

I don't see a problem here. Much ado about nothing.

It's just a matter of time before they modify the test to get the results they want. You know, like we do here in the States.

Einstein once said that he never tried to remember what he could write down. And he was a pretty smart fellow.

In another instance, when asked if he had problems remembering some arcane mathematical formula, he replied, "No. That's what reference books are for."

You are not the first to leave that barn door open.....P.C. Is standing firmly in the way still even ‘tho Hagle says “we must prepare for everything “....prepare? Why. Not eliminate the threat!!??

[IYAS9YAS]

Methinks that you should check your reading comprehension.

Or actually read the article instead of just the headline. I misread it to mean native Brits, vs. Muslims in the Brit Armed Services.

[IYAS9YAS]

Check that. Read it as Non-Muslim Brits instead of Muslim Brits in the British Armed Services.

“The brain is a muscle. If you don’t use it, it atrophies.”

Blacks dwell in the shallowest part of the IQ pool, with Latrinos slightly deeper in the IQ pool.

Muslims have been diligently practicing first cousin incest for the better part of 1,400 years and have developed an array of inherited defects as a result.

Adding any of the above populations to a First World nation must depress the IQ pool.

It is an effect called regression to the mean, and all three groups are very mean, indeed.

Not everyone who is quoted has a substandard IQ.

From yesterday...
I feel compelled to provide a (brief) excerpt of Lt. Colonel Ralph Peters (ret.) from earlier today on Fox News...

"...reality is that the way you deal with the Islamic State (caliphate), these bloodthirsty, blood-drunken terrorists is to kill them, keep on killing them until you kill the last one... then you kill his pet goat. THAT's how you deal with them!"
