But Nature is not infallible. Nature makes mistakes. That’s what evolution is all about: growth by trial and error. Nature can be stupid and cruel.
Oh, my, how cruel!
That’s okay. There’s nothing wrong with Nature being dumb and ugly because it is simultaneously-paradoxically-brilliant and superb. But to worship the natural at the exclusion of the unnatural is to practice Organic Fascism….And in the best tradition of fascism, they are totally intolerant of those who don’t share their beliefs; thus, they foster the very kinds of antagonism and tension that lead to strife, which they, pacifists one and all, claim to abhor.
