your thoughts about 'survival of the fittest'
-2
yeah..... its a RoN (Rule of Nature)..... one of nature's cruelest ones..... those who are weak are automatically killed off.... those strong get it all..... its like 'winner take all' but the others die off..... it goes the same with human nature.....
so guys... your thoughts?
EDIT: removed the posted thought because it was so damn wrong when i saw it.... apparently someone beside me atm doesnt know the shit and twisted my idea into that...

It seems that right from the start you set up a false dichotomy:
You either MUST help others/be altruistic or be some mindless egotistical prick.
What about, "fuck nature, I am an intelligent human being and I think it's a good idea to form a society where cooperation is key to propagation and perpetuity."

Fittest could be of mind or body, but survival has become too easy. So i'll just go with what Rbz said.

The people most often quiting this "law" are stupid bastards without an ounce of scientific understanding.
Yes: Evolution works by natural selection.
No: Natural selection doesn't always favor the strongest, most selfish bastard.
Natural selection works by rewarding the guy who screws the most and his children survive. Girls dig a guy for very different reasons across the myriad of species. Strange as it sounds, being altruistic, caring, (good with the kids) and sacrificing for the group can be a better strategy than just being the biggest, strongest guy on the block. (Maybe you are... meanwhile that little guy is screwing your mate behind your back).
...so no. Alturuism, self-sacrifice, group dynamics can and *are* good survival methods in some circumstances.
If you want to learn more, read the "Selfish Gene" from Richard Dawkins.

Kropotkin's "Mutual Aid" also covers this nicely, and it even shows how those aspects in human society have changed over time.

survival of the fittest has become absolute. Before it is the weak and the dumb which was weeded out. So those that are smart have to become strong. Those who are dumb just die. Now though because of modern living making it possible to support people without the whole equilibrium of nature.
We have a surplus of idiots and the ones who are smart but not strong get weaker instead of stronger in order to survive.
aka
surplus of buff dumb people
surplus of smart fat people
its tearing this world apart...
