Chapter 9 The Law of Survival
I got into an argument with the old man, and Davis was kicked to the side by me. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You keep saying that for the benefit of all mankind and for the progress of civilization, where are the benefits? Where's the progress? I don't see civilization progressing, I just see a bunch of madmen! ”
The old man sat down in his seat with a sneer and said, "What's the use of you scolding me now?" Human nature is selfish, just like you ran for your life last night. When these research results come out, human beings will overcome diseases, prolong life, and develop the spiritual power of the brain, and when civilization enters a new height, we will all be heroes, let civilization speak, let history speak, your current opinion, count it as a fart. ”
For a while, I couldn't refute it.
Does it make no sense to say that their research is meaningful? No, in fact, I know that their research is very advanced, and creating a new era of civilization is not an unattainable dream. Think of F3's spiritual labs, and think of the many more such research institutes around the world. If all this can really be realized, then whether it is a hundred years, two hundred years, or even thousands of years, these things that cross the era will be remembered by civilization forever.
That's right, the old man was right.
People are selfish.
Who cares about the victims when everyone benefits? Even, in future textbooks, opponents like me may still be labeled: villains who prevent the development of civilization.
In this case, like animal rights activists who stand up and scold people who use animals for medical experiments, no one will be on their side. Because, everyone is making a profit and enjoying the results of animal experimentation, and stopping animal testing is infringing on everyone's interests.
In such a ridiculous way, these animal rights activists will leave the scene in embarrassment and embarrassment.
When everyone benefits, I'm in a similar situation to these animal rights activists, and in the eyes of those who benefit, I'm ridiculous and brainless.
But that doesn't mean I should give in, I said, "There are no beneficiaries, and your research results are still in a very low state. So, I can scold you, you crazy people. ”
The old man said: "No achievement is achieved overnight, what was our world like a hundred years ago, and what is it like today a hundred years later, the world is turned upside down, right?" Can you guarantee that this will still be the case for the next hundred years? ”
I sneered and said, "Don't say so far, you should be in your fifties this year, and if you live for more than ten or twenty years, you should be in the coffin, what are you worried about in a hundred years?" ”
The old man said, "Who said I can only live for more than ten or twenty years? KB1 and your body have regenerative genes, a very powerful regenerative gene, I spent ten years to analyze it, maybe ten years later, this regenerative gene, can be used on myself. ”
I said, "At the end of the day, you're still doing it for yourself." ”
The old man said: "Shouldn't excellent people live longer and make more contributions?" ”
I said: "I can't imagine that as a modern scholar, you still have this kind of thought, in your heart, people are hierarchical, and people who are not excellent have no meaning in life?" ”
The old man stared at me, smiled, and said, "Are you going to buckle me with a moral hat?" Young man, you can't put this hat on my head, because what I say is the truth. Species, that is, survival of the fittest, do you know why, there were so many myths and legends in ancient times? ”
I said, "Tell me a mythological story?" ”
The old man said, "I'm not telling you stories, I'm telling you the facts." Whether it is Eastern civilization or Western civilization, in myths and legends, there is a period of time when people and gods lived together, right? ”
I nodded, this phenomenon is more common in Western myths and legends, where the gods walk in the human world, and even combine with people to have children. In our traditional Chinese mythology, such as Nuwa and Fuxi, the era in which people and gods lived together was also an era in which humans and gods lived together. Later, for some reason, the myths and legends of man and god gradually separated.
The old man said slowly, "Do you know the dragon group?" ”
"I know, I heard that the people in this organization have some special functions."
The old man said: "It's not a special function, it's just that the spiritual power of the brain domain is relatively strong." Just like a fierce ghost, the magnetic field is strong enough to show a lot of abilities. In ancient times, human beings followed the law of survival of the fittest, multiplied, and had strong spiritual power, so that many people had some special abilities, and these people were what we call gods. It's a pity that as human life gradually settles down, the mortality rate decreases, the life expectancy is extended, the excellent and the inferior people live together and hybridize, and even take the initiative to give up the 'natural sword', and the people of later generations, the brain domain of spiritual power is gradually closed, and the generation is not as good as the generation, and nature, those legendary gods, will disappear and be difficult to see. What we are doing now is not to fight against humanity again, but to regain our lost abilities. ”
"Nature's sword?" I'm quite interested in this statement, in fact, what the old man said about the mixing of people and gods, and the development of spiritual power, is very new to me.
Davis rubbed his neck and coughed: "The sword of nature, ahem, is actually a consensus reached secretly in the biological world, and it is another form of survival of the fittest. We human beings, initially due to the unstable living environment and high mortality rate, so, like all animals, can only make our offspring stronger, that is, the winner and the winner reproduce, excellent men and women, can get more mating rights, let their genes pass on, this is the same as animals. ”
But later, with the stability of life, the reduction of mortality, and the density of the population, human beings voluntarily abandoned the criterion of merit-based reproduction, because everyone wanted to survive, and everyone wanted to have their own offspring. And merit-based reproduction is very cruel, if there are ten men and ten women in the tribe, then these ten women will choose the strongest one, and the remaining nine will be eliminated. And these ten women will mate with different strong people and give birth to better offspring. ”
"The 'sword of nature' is very cruel, but it can ensure that a good population will always be excellent and better. However, when life is stable, the number of such nine-person groups gradually increases, and when riots begin, it is for the sake of ethnic stability...... Guess what, what did humans do? ”
I understood a little, and suddenly realized, "Marriage." ”
Davis said: "That's right, it's to get married, so that everyone, whether good or bad, has the right to reproduce, this is the marriage system." It maintains the balance within the population, but at the same time, it violates the law of survival of the fittest, and some genes that should be eliminated in the laws of nature have been handed down and mixed together, and although the human brain domain is increasing, the amount of development is getting narrower and narrower, until now...... God is gone. ”
I said, "Your plan is called 'The Return of the Gods and Demons', but according to what you say, the genes of human beings cannot be changed, and the marriage system is also very strong, if you want to achieve the goal of the return of the gods and ghosts." Isn't it about exterminating a great deal of what you call inferior humanity and dissolving the institution of marriage? Oh, I imagined it, that scene was not good. ”
Sure enough, there is only a thin line between a genius and a madman, I have never heard of this theory, but judging from what I know, this theory can actually stand.
Davis smiled and said, "Among the animals in nature, even if there are creatures similar to the mating system, they are also for reproduction. Only human beings have voluntarily given up the law of merit-based reproduction. Of course, whether it is good or bad to give up this 'sword of nature' is not known. If we don't give up, maybe humanity will disappear in the midst of infighting and riots, or maybe there won't be the prosperity we have today, who knows? Therefore, people are divided into levels, and even at this level, no one will say it. ”
"Morality is a silencer, it can hide the voice, but it cannot let the voice itself disappear, the truth and facts are there."
I said, "Then you think you belong to the excellent people?" What kind of people should disappear? ”
The old man said: "There are many definitions of excellence, however, for living beings, those who can survive are excellent. Among the living creatures, the one that can make the population strong is the one who is excellent. ”
I said, "What about emotions?" ”
The old man said: "Every person, every animal, has its emotions, if this is the standard, then all life should survive." ”
I said, "A kind person who has not done anything hurtful or unreasonable, has not achieved great achievements, and he just wants to live, is it also wrong?" ”
The old man said, "Do you know how many people there are on the earth?" Do you know what such a number of people means? Resources, like a piece of cake, too many people to share, and in the end everyone will starve to death. ”
I said, "I think your words are a bit anti-human. ”
The old man smiled and said, "Young man, don't just button me such a big hat. Human beings are a very great race, and such a race should have better development, which is just the goal of all of us. ”
Before I could speak, he added: "Okay, the topic is a bit far away, I am not here to discuss with you the history of human evolution and marriage, let alone to have a moral debate with you. Just now, I said my request, you can make a decision. Is it to arrest people, or to stay at the research base? ”
I sat back in my chair, not knowing what to answer for a moment.
There seems to be no third way waiting for me.
