I mean, there was that NASA quote (Which had nothing to do with establishing offworld colonies as an alternative to fixing the planet, but instead simply for the sake of establishing offworld colonies) and that link about the Buffalo, but your argument fell flat since they aren't extinct.
So, if you really want to make it look like you know what you're talking about, give me some links that support your arguments. Because right now, I can easily counter-point anything you say since you haven't proven anything.
But to answer the older question: Would we enslave an alien species to help rebuild our planet? The answer: No, we're currently doing that by ourselves.

Close, but no cigar. Basically, a member of a species will develop a trait that allows it to survive in its environment, allowing it to mate more and, as a result, pass along these traits. Not only have we, as humans, stopped developing new traits, we also see deviation from the norm as undesirable in a mate. Likewise, we no longer have a need to develop, as, like I explained, we adapt our environment to suit us instead of the other way around.
Likewise, preservation of both the species and self isn't part of evolution. It's correct, it's been proven, but it has nothing to do with evolution. While it is a part of genetics, it doesn't have anything to do with evolution.shamone wrote:what links do you want, the origin of the species. its not a link but a book. start there and work forward. not being condescending but asking for a handy made link for evolution theory isnt that simple.
Yes, but most people tend to get it wrong; mutation doesn't happen on purpose, it happens by coincidence and, if those new traits allow you to live longer, luck.shamone wrote:Links to wasted food by households

Er...remind me again what you were trying to prove? I thought "Famine is a shortage of food" was my argument. Which gains credit as that's exactly what this link says. Also it's the actual definition in the dictionary. And it's what both of those links you posted said. True, economic and sociological issues were involved, but the ultimate result was a shortage of food in both cases.

Well if there's enough food to go around, why is starvation such a problem?
those links prove there is enough to go around, if distributed properly, or if we looked beyond economic concerns. its like saying that world war one was the result of gavrilo princip.
the lack of food stemmed from the other situations, so the shortage of food in the world is not the issue

Read that link you posted on Ethiopian famine. One of the first things it mentioned was record low rainfall, which means crop failure, which means not enough food.shamone wrote:3.
That's actually the best point you've made in this entire thread.
I'm gonna go back to ignoring you now. I thought getting you to try and post proof of your arguments would help, but all you ended up doing was misinterpreting it.
