Quite the opposite. Being a survivor is not perpetual. Today’s survivor may be overtaken tomorrow … or not. In any case, the activity is fully dynamic.
Nature is, indeed. But Darwinism is not. It explains life through death.
Darwinism as a scientific theory is hard to argue with. Species thrive to the extent that they fit their environment. Darwinism as a moral philosophy and practical tool is something else. When you start meddling with the environment to make it fit better with your group and less well with other groups, you loose me right quick. It rapidly becomes a justification for immorality.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
