The fittest survive. What is meant by the fittest? Not the strongest; not the cleverest— Weakness and stupidity everywhere survive. There is no way of determining fitness except in that a thing does survive. "Fitness," then, is only another name for "survival." Darwinism: That survivors survive. Los más aptos sobreviven. ¿Qué quiere decir "los más aptos"? Ni los más fuertes ni los más inteligentes; la debilidad y la estupidez sobreviven por todas partes. No hay una manera de determinar la aptitud aparte de que una cosa sobreviva. La "aptitud" es por lo tanto otra forma de decir "supervivencia". Darwinismo: Que los supervivientes sobrevivan.
