Its just why would a Father let his young foolish son cancel out his vote?
In the same regards a spouse.
The Father/Husband should be the representation for the whole family!!
Then when his son branches off with a family, land and home he has earned a vote.
Forming another Family unit.
The urge to multiply is one of the strongest urges we have. If they are losing it then something must be causing it. Fluoride? Vaccines? Air pollution?

Man has already stopped evolving. In order to evolve the weak have to perish. Man has stopped that from happening. We protect our weaker beings. For instance, congenital blind people used to wander around until they fell off a cliff or a tiger ate them. That doesn't happen anymore we protect the blind so they don't die out. In fact they breed and thrive. Evolution doesn't work for man now.

And how may I ask do you arrive at that conclusion.

Evolution has not stopped, it is silly to say that.
But what happened is that Natural selection has been turned off, aka, the weak are allowed to survive.
Which means, the evolution cannot work properly, defected people will breed defected people, thus defeating natural selection.
To put it bluntly, even tho it seems cruel, if you need a drug, machine to stay alive, you are in the weak, which means, you offspring might be damaged, as well as will not have good role model.

The eugenics is strong in this one.

Would you like to dispute the post you quoted with facts, or just imply some sort of guilt by association?
Many of those who, in the past, might not have survived to reproductive age due to, say, genetic disorders can now stay alive and breed thanks to modern medicine. Some of those people will pass along hereditary diseases to their progeny. Is this not the case?
