You are not comparing apples and oranges.
Yes I am. Check out the meaning of species.

How does Darwin account for death?

Not all life decides to pass on genes.
Some virus and bacteria just spontaneously die out. Usually because the are too efficient (No 'survival of the fittest' here)

Homosexuals do not tend to pass on their genes.
(We need to assume here that homosexuality is a sociobiological trait like altrusism)

How does Darwin account for the fact that 80% of the life on this planet
(Bacteria) can swap genetic material with any other bacteria, no sex involved. They just do it. How do they select which bits to swap?

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
