Do hold that humanity has a particular purpose/mission however.
We have to work with nature but not necessarily for it.
@380kmh @Costofles @Aristokles11235 undirected selection isn't necessarily any better on this score

@HbdNrx @Costofles@Aristokles11235 You misunderstand. Undirected selection is the rule even when we try to select. We are not in charge. -
@HbdNrx @Costofles@Aristokles11235 Basically undirected selection doesn't simply stop happening just because we've started selecting. -
@HbdNrx @Costofles@Aristokles11235 We already select deliberately, all the time, in who we have sex with. Doesn't stop natural selection. -
@380kmh @Costofles@Aristokles11235 sure, but I think we can make conscious improvements. We can increase our odds -
@HbdNrx @Costofles@Aristokles11235 To consciously improve your score on a test, you have to know the test matter. -
@HbdNrx @Costofles@Aristokles11235 We don't know what natural selection will select for, ergo, we cannot "prepare" for it. -
@380kmh we aren't completely blind. I'll take the odds of conscious eugenics over the current path. -
@HbdNrx Most of us are completely blind to the fact that all of us are completely blind.
