So, as I look about me and see the biosphere collapsing, with the highest extinction rate since the death of the dinosaurs, with its air, soil, and water poisoned, with horrendous human over-population and over-exploitation of natural resources, and with global warming pointing to an unstoppable 'greenhouse effect' that could literally fry the planet, I pause to wonder just what basic philosophical notion/s have brought us to such a pass?
This is just an argument from final consequences. Moreover, the consequences themselves and the claimed philosophical driver are debatable.
Nothing in evolutionary science is encouraging humans to not be responsible with the planet. Rather it is personal gain, something that has always existed among humans, that drives such behavior.
I also take issue, as others seem to do, with your anthropomorphic description of simple descriptions of natural phenomenon. Natural selection is not an entity, it is a description of what is observed. Seemingly you don't take issue with the observation in nature that the earth orbits the sun. Why do you take issue with the observation that populations experience differential reproductive success with respect to their environment?
Of course, biblical creationists are committed to belief in God's written Word, the Bible, which forbids bearing false witness; --AIG (lest they forget)
