Darwinian explanations of why we are the way we are:

In regard to Darwinian explanations of why we are the way we are:   ;D

Quote
“Darwinian explanations for such things are often too supple:

Natural selection makes humans self-centered and aggressive—except when it makes them altruistic and peaceable.

Or natural selection produces virile men who eagerly spread their seed—except when it prefers men who are faithful protectors and providers.

When an explanation is so supple that it can explain any behavior, it is difficult to test it experimentally, much less use it as a catalyst for scientific discovery.”

Philip Skell (1918–2010), a leading chemist.
