facthunter Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago My Mother did THAT when the Dept of Education Posted me to Sydney's Western suburbs. Maybe She thought I Would never return. I had My Own workshop Under the house where no one but Me ever went, and completely OUT of Sight but she said She HAD to tidy it Up. Nev 1

That means my parents were "fitter" than I was, which placed me in "survival" mode. Something I never knew about my Dad until I asked him one day, was that he thought the Holocaust was ok. I was studying WW2 and I asked him: "What do you think of the Jews?" (the Holocaust). I froze when he said in his old school language: "Good enough". Apparently, and I refrained from asking him anymore questions, he blamed the Jews for his parents breaking up because of the great depression, and for businesses going broke causing mass unemployment. But there I was, doing two years conscription, for my Dad, who cared nothing about six million Jews being liquidated. 1
facthunter Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago You CAN Pick your friends BUT you CANNOT PICK your relatives. You are also drawing a long BOW to connect your Father's Beliefs with your circumstances. 2 things mainly affect where you end up as a person. Your genetic makeup and your life experiences (as you interpret them) Nev 1

I don't think `fitter' is the right word, more like `mean and callous' by the sound of it. You obviously did survive the experience however, so by your Darwinian definition, you proved to be the fittest. 1

There is no correlation whatsoever. Your parents deciding to dispose of your goods is no more related to your conscription than if I disposed of my sons goods because I lost my job when my employer went into liquidation. Totally unrelated. You have an unbelievable way of linking separate things together to suit your purpose. 2
facthunter Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago There's never a shortage of "Selective Perception" or whatever the Latest Book McGraw Hill Publishes, Calls it.. Some cover it by saying" Don't let FACTS get in the way of a Good Story". Another Filter . "How do I know? The BIBLE tells ME so." I read SOMEWHERE, THAT.... Conventional Wisdom is that....Nev 1
Grumpy Old Nasho Posted 5 hours ago Author Posted 5 hours ago I have no children, so I'd better hurry up and produce some if my genes are to pass on. "To understand Darwin’s concept of fitness, we must let go of modern ideas about muscular strength or moral worth. In evolutionary biology, “fitness” simply means reproductive success: the ability to survive long enough to pass your genes to the next generation." Interesting read .... https://www.sciencenewstoday.org/survival-of-the-fittest-what-darwin-really-meant
facthunter Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago You only need to successfully Copulate to pass on your genes for better or worse. IF you have Wounds. Amputations or tattoos the Kids don't get born with them.. You don't HAVE to Have children. Practicing is fun. Nev

facthunter Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago $#!! There's more in it than that. THE Book and resultant discourse of it would fill a book as thick as the Bible. Anyhow TYRUMPER has BANNED it to be taught . so it MUST be rubbish.. He HE (Devil Laughing). Nev
