are laws a perversion to evolution, are we impeding ourself through government and certain rules and eventually regressing our true potential. for many things like eugenics and...using 100 percent of mind and being less restricted unable us to leave and progress to the point of immortality

Evolution doesn't mean progression. It just means better at fucking out loads of little guys to fuck out their own loads and so on.
>>
>are laws a perversion to evolution

Evolution has no goals, it's just a process, and it often involves trade-offs between multiple interacting factors, such as between natural selection and sexual selection.

are laws impeding our progress?

No. Evolution happens regardless.

progress towards what?
>>
>>821553
No, laws are helping our progress. Imagine in your mind a typical scientist. Is this the kind of person that would survive in a world with no laws? A world of violence and rape, where strength is the only worthwhile trait? Of course not. And yet, it is these same scientist types who invented the nuclear bomb, the ultimate display of human strength. Laws guarantee an ordered society, and an ordered society guarantees scientific progress.

Evolution doesn't have anything to do with progression. An animal may become genetically less complex if the environmental pressures favor it. Also why would we care if we don't follow evolutionary rules?

>using 100 percent of mind

this meme again
>>
Has anyone on this board read the 10,000 year explosion?

And Guns, Germs and Steel?
>>
>>821538
No.

You can't have modern civilization without laws, and the benefits of civilized life are great enough to outweigh any slowing of the evolutionary process that may result from laws protecting the weak.

>>821538
true potential? perversion? do you understand evolution?

Evolution is random mutation. that gets passed on. thats it, no progress, hell, we'd get stupider if it happened to one of us randomly and that person just happened to be the most likely to have children.

we could literally evolve back into ape like creatures. there is no progress. the only thing impeding it/helping it would be that we through survival of the fittest out the window. It no longer matters whether your strong or not, smart or not, you have have children.

>using 100 percent of mind
Most people already do this.

Unlike OP.

>using 100% of the brain

It's called a tonic-clonic seizure.

>progress

Towards what? Define your terms.
