Slavery had existed before the enlightenment. It was usually justified by the idea someone was eligible to be enslaved because they were captured, defeated in war etc. The enlightenment changed the paradigm completely by changing the eligibility reasons to someone being of an inferior race thus justifying it that way. In light of this, do we think too highly of the enlightenment movement? Slavery has been an issue that has haunted our history and is still evident in present day in society. It…
Your theory can be seen throughout the natural world. From our own genes to everything around us. The world is just a giant game of survival of the fittest. One of my reasons for believing in your theory is the evidence that we have in front of us. As I had said before, your theory has been continuously backed up by fossils. Each fossil we find helps us to see and understand how animals and…
only select external and visible characteristic in organisms to breed so they can get more money when they sell them or to make the animal have characteristics that they admire. In contrast of humans, the variations that occur in nature are for the survival of the animal and appearances do not determine what variations occur. An example of this is that a leaf-eating insect is the same color as its food which protects it from danger. Modifications in nature can only act for the good of the…

Since the beginning of society, humans have taken evolution into their own hands. Humans have used their smarts to adapt to any situation and to meet their needs. You may have noticed, that we’ve met some of our needs a little too well. Our ability to grow and process foods, to make sure everyone is well nourished, has led to a lot of eating that our bodies were not made to digest properly. Currently, 2.1 billion people, nearly a third of the world’s total population, are overweight. From an…
Charles Darwin in his The Descent of Man and Karl Marx in his The Communist Manifesto suggest similar understandings of progress. For Darwin, progress manifests itself in natural selection, often known as “survival of the fittest,” where fittest refers to organisms that can survive and reproduce successfully and not to the most physically fit. Marx realizes that “the history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggle,” and thus understands progress as the removal of class…
The scene in which a primitive human is shown in Bucks dream, and how Buck regains his primitive instincts through his experiences also makes one question how ‘civilized’ the human race really is once we are put in a place where nothing matters but survival as Buck was. The book points out moral questions about human nature using dogs as a metaphor - when it is right to be uncivil, when it is right to steal, when is it right to kill? This is explored as Buck adjusts from civilization into his…
