This is what happens, two species live in the same area, only one can thrive and so one species loses out. They may be killed in battle or whatever, but the fact remains is that they were not superior so they could not compete. Stop making evolution sound like a bunch of mass murderers because it is not, it's the natural way of things. |
Sounds a lot like what happened to the american indian. There was not "organized" genocide, they were killed of gradually because they couldn't handle the competetion.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
