Self-Sacrifice in Nature Proves
Darwinism to be False
The theory of evolution claims that the natural world is
the scene of merciless competition, and the theory's sup-
porters try to inculcate this idea into the minds of others.
Actually, the erroneous belief that nature is simply an arena
of struggle has been a part of the theory since evolution was
first proposed. The mechanism of "natural selection" pro-
mulgated by Darwin, the theory's author, proposes that
creatures strong enough to adapt to their natural environ-
ment are able to survive and reproduce, while those that are
too weak die off. According to this idea of "natural selec-
tion," nature is a savage battleground where creatures con-
tend with one another in merciless struggles for survival,
and where the weak is killed by the strong.
