selfish eye sight
Natural selection, the blind, unconscious, automatic process which Darwin discovered, and which we now know is the explanation forthe existence and apparently purposeful form of all life, has no purpose in mind.

We had to sit in this courtroom in Reno for six weeks. It was like Disneyworld.
