"Survival of the fittest" is a phrase that originated from Darwinian evolutionary theory

So I find it amazing how people that believe the most in Darwin fight against allowing Darwinian principles to happen. We should just keep moving forward and let any disease run its course. Those who will live will live and those who will die will die.

Darwinian theory is simply survival of the good enough to pass on their genes. To procreate. It has sod-all to do with how fit they are.

Let's not see evolution as some perfect filter; especially in the human space, where we can overcome many of our shortcomings through supplements, medicine and surgery.

If you want to get back in to the arguments about "fittest", then we're going to the classic eugenics arguments made 50+ years ago. Nothing new.

Good example.. there are many examples of why evolution isn't "perfect", because everything is trying to out-compete each other, compensating all the time, but screwing up along the way. But if you're lucky enough to pass your genes on, then the cycle continues.
