dawkins being a eugenicist shouldn't be surprising to anyone who's paid even passing attention to him _________________

Modern medicine inhibits the natural eugenics of our species.

Those lifeforms most adept to survive, survive. That's natural eugenics, survival of the fittest.
But you are correct, there is no 'natural eugenics' because our technology has advanced far enough to inhibit it.
Which is what I said...
Evolution automatically rewards superior traits (for survival).

that's natural selection, eugenics is specifically humans intervening in natural selection to attempt to "breed" people with desirable traits _________________

I was doing some reading on wiki and came across this interesting paragraph
quote:
Diseases vs. traits
While the science of genetics has increasingly provided means by which certain characteristics and conditions can be identified and understood, given the complexity of human genetics, culture, and psychology there is at this point no agreed objective means of determining which traits might be ultimately desirable or undesirable. Some diseases such as sickle-cell disease and cystic fibrosis respectively confer immunity to malaria and resistance to cholera when a single copy of the recessive allele is contained within the genotype of the individual. Reducing the instance of sickle-cell disease in Africa where malaria is a common and deadly disease could indeed have extremely negative net consequences. On the other hand, genetic diseases like haemochromatosis can increase susceptibility to illness, cause physical deformities, and other dysfunctions, which provides some incentive for people to re-consider some elements of eugenics.
Basically diseases we see as negative can actually be beneficial and actually lead to immunity to other diseases. _________________ "i don't have pet peeves, i have major psychotic fucking hatreds"

heh eradicating what is perceived as an undesirable trait by eugenics is almost like removing or adding a species to an ecosystem, you may not know what the side effects will be in the long run. _________________ "i don't have pet peeves, i have major psychotic fucking hatreds"

it's really disturbing that your objection to this maniac is "he's not doing good science". how about it's morally abhorrent to perpetuate the idea that people with downs syndrome are better off not living.
guess i shouldn't be surprised though, one of your favorite insults is to tell people they are downs syndrome retards.
