- W328516312 abstract "Abstract Darwin had only the merest physical access to the work of Mendel (which he did not apply to his theory or mechanisms). Nor did he have access to present-day concepts of adaptation, nor of the systems dynamics of Prigogene, the memes of Dawkins, endosymbiontic synthesis of Margulis, or holographic assemblage (as exemplified by Gabor's or Pribrim's work), among other present-day tools. This paper explores few of the ideas and implications of such 20th Century systems-related concepts which must now advise Darwin's seminal work. In it, caution against debating Darwin or any other 19th Century scientific work Chapter and Verse without depth of more modern contexts. This discussion includes an explorative Systems Dynamics definition of as a functional (reproductive) set of genetics at dynamic equilibrium within the adaptive context of its local Such definition implies that species only exists within the context of its environment, that it must be conserved or examined as an extension of that ecosystem, and that it is only as genetically stable as the controlling parameters of that ecosystem. Introduction The discourse between the doctrine of Creationism and the science of Biology has continued virtually unabated for 150 years, with no signs of solution, even with the advent of new generations. The difficulty with examining this topic is the polarity demanded within an essentially political debate. For one party, the denial of Darwinian concepts poses as required article of Faith. Within the second group, genetically-controlled natural selection is the accepted basis of powerful (and often lucrative) modern biological paradigm. We recognize first that it is caricatured Darwin which is usually discussed; the issue tends to be simplified to suit those who debate it (i.e. Gish 1992). It is not unusual to hear those who argue creationism or intelligent design say, we may have no problem with adaptation, but our faith says that Evolution--the accidental, spontaneous change or creation of species, does not Meanwhile, many of the learned biologists who staunchly promote Darwinism might be the same voices who would push upon us technology of patented, genetically modified organisms. Science without restraint is profane. In the end, it is control of the popular will which is primarily at stake. Much of the successful popular argument against original Darwinian Evolution is that it seems to imply Victorian idea of Orthogenesis, where species progress through time, from primitive to complex, in natural order. This would occur in the anthropogenic universe, where human-kind represents the most perfect form. Are you ascended from mere ape? It is an old button to push. This is partially the fault of the way still teach science: A child learns an inanely simple version of food chain in grade school. In high school, the matter is revisited, and the understanding expands to food web concept, more complex, although still fairly simplified approximation of reality. If and when the student pursues an advanced degree, then more complex and complete study of the interactions of the ecosystem might happen. The majority of trained biologists understand that modern jellyfish is just as distant through time and development from the Ordovician as is human. The modern biologist has for the most part abandoned teleology; the Victorian simplification that every jellyfish has an undeniable urge to evolve upward toward being human. (In fact, the jellyfish is better adapted to its own lifestyle and ecosystem than human would be--the sinking of any modern ship is good illustration; in general, human fares about as well when dropped into the deep ocean as jellyfish does when dropped in the middle of London street.) To argue The Origin of Species (Darwin 1859) chapter and verse one falls prey to the same flaw by which the 1545 Council of Trent locked the Church into the trap of becoming medieval authority on modern scientific matters. …" @default.
