Chapter 1320: Absurdism

"Hmph, you just won't admit that you're wrong. Professor Kangda sneered: "Okay, since you don't want to admit it, then I won't force you to embarrass you,"

"Professor Conda, in fact, you are here today to make me a social Darwinist. Chen Yuyue said: "Let me see how these small things become our mouths, but I want to ask, since you are an expert in the field of biology, you should know that the strategies adopted by organisms in the process of evolution are different, right?"

"Of course I do. Professor Conda said.

"Then you must know that these two different survival strategies represent two different types of creatures to cope with the environment, right?" Chen Yuyue continued.

His gaze was fixed on the plate of insects.

"I know what you're trying to say. Professor Kangda followed Chen Yuyue's gaze and saw the plate of fried oily and shiny insects: "The survival strategy chosen by these little things is characterized by a short life cycle, small size, fast reproduction, and a large number of offspring left by each birth, so even if the survival rate is low, it can ensure that it will not be exterminated, most of these insects are like this, they reproduce in large numbers, and when the environment changes, they will not adopt any active strategies, but rely on a large number of breeding offspring to produce mutations." ”

Chen Yuyue smiled: "Yes, when the temperature gets colder, they will not use high-end methods to keep out the cold, but give birth to many offspring, and the offspring that are not cold-tolerant will die, and the very few who produce cold-tolerant characteristics will survive, and give birth to a large number of equally cold-tolerant offspring through a very high reproductive rate, so that the population will successfully cope with the crisis of climate cooling."

Professor Conda snorted, "That's right. There is another class of creatures that have the exact opposite strategy. ”

"Uh-huh. Chen Yuyue nodded.

"Organisms that choose the second strategy will have a longer life cycle and are larger, so that the individual is more capable than insects, but at the expense of slower reproduction and fewer offspring. We humans are creatures of this strategy, and when environmental changes occur, we humans will respond positively, and we will not choose to die. When the weather gets cold, we will build houses to keep out the cold, peel animal skins to make clothes to keep out the cold, live warmly, live in groups to reduce the cost of living, and will not be stupid enough to resist. Professor Conda said.

Chen Yuyue applauded: "I thought you didn't know, Professor Kangda." ”

"I'm in biology, how could I not know. Professor Kangda said with some unhappiness.

"Since you also know that we humans are this kind of strategy, we use our brains and wisdom to play this strategy to the level of the glorious king of all species on the earth in the long evolutionary process, so we have established human society, established a scientific system, established a cultural system, and then through a series of other species such as medicine, social security, education, etc., it is absolutely difficult to achieve super strategies, to deal with the dangers we may face, to open up our living space...... That's why there is a great human civilization!" Chen Yu said.

Professor Kangda frowned, "Of course I do. ”

"Then do you still have the idea of social Darwinism?" Chen Yuyue said: "The idea of social Darwinism is completely contrary to the strategy of building civilization and survival of human beings! Social Darwinism is to make people die when they are sick and die if they are uneducated, and directly eliminate those so-called inferior ones! Only the elite human beings are left." Isn't this an insect survival strategy? Is this still a human being?"

Professor Conda was speechless.

Chen Yuyue picked up his glass: "I know, now there are too many people on the earth, there are too few resources, some people with inferior character and inferior character really deserve to die, but after all, it is a very small number of people, most people are still innocent, if you want to eliminate them in an extreme way, not only may not eliminate those inferior people, but will sacrifice a large number of innocent people." ”

Professor Conda took a sip from his glass.

"The environment is always changing, and suffering in a certain period of time does not necessarily equal the overall trouble in the future. Chen Yuyue also accompanied him for a drink.

Rowling quickly got up and poured drinks for the two.

Yang Xuyang saw that both of them had drunk, and he also accompanied him for a drink.

The wine in the wine glass was full again, and Chen Yu shook the wine glass and looked at the red wine hanging on the wall.

"Giant pandas like to eat bamboo, when the whole world is a bamboo forest, of course it lives very happy, there is food, it can reproduce carefree for a lifetime, but once the bamboo forest encounters a disaster, the habitat of the giant panda who only eats bamboo is becoming more and more narrow. Chen Yuyue said: "This principle is the same for people. ”

"People are not the same as animals. Rowling put down the wine vessel and followed.

"What's the difference, people are animals. Chen Yuyue looked at Luo Lin: "Let me ask you, what was the status of women in ancient times?"

Rowling was stunned for a moment: "No status?"

"In ancient times, women were basically used as a reproductive tool, and this view was even more deeply rooted in China, and even slowly improved after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Chen Yuyue said: "So in the past, women with rich breasts and fat buttocks were good, but if women were selected according to the criteria suitable for childbirth, no one wanted today's beauties with good figures." ”

Rowling was stunned for a moment and did not deny it: "It is indeed easier for a woman with a large pelvis to give birth to a child, the survival rate is higher, and the fuller breasts also have the advantage of breastfeeding, I admit." ”

"But today, women's productivity is liberated, and having children is not so dangerous, and different women are required to engage in a variety of jobs with different abilities. Chen Yu said.

Rowling shrugged her shoulders, she admitted that now the criteria for choosing a mate are indeed different, and women are slowly having career requirements, unlike before, just stay at home and watch the children cook and clean up the housework.

"When the environment changes significantly, it is easier for populations with genetic diversity to survive!" Chen Yuyue raised his voice: "And the so-called social Darwinism is self-righteous elimination of what they think is inferior, thinking that this relieves the pressure on the use of the earth's resources, but they do not expect that this process also eliminates a large number of neutral genes!"

Professor Conda's mouth opened wide in astonishment.

"Professor, let me ask you, what does it mean to reduce the abundance of genes?" Chen Yuyue slowly calmed down.

"I'm ......," Professor Conda said.

"It means that it will be more difficult for human beings to adapt to the changing environment in the future!" Chen Yuyue replied for him, believing that Professor Kangda knew this result in his heart.

So Professor Conda did not deny it.

"In the pluralistic environment of our human society, how to define which individuals are inferior, money, skin color, are all nonsense!" Chen Yuyue scolded angrily: "Even though there are many kinds of measurement standards, intelligence, sports, emotional intelligence, art, and skills, we still can't judge who is inferior!"
