The trucks are scheduled to roll in sometime first quarter.

That is to say, does "Mother Nature" (or "God" or "Life Force" or "The Universe" or whatever [assuming there is some whatever]) say "I don't want you to sire any further replications of your particular genomic instantiation and therefore I render you impotent, etc." and the boner pill is contra this—that is to say, an ultimate weakening of a gene pool that needs to be pruned.<br /><br />Or, contrariwise, is the inability (or unwillingness) to breed simply a reflection of that person's own vanity: "I am the ultimate flowering of Life. I must bloom and die without replication, my life being a thing of beauty. I am Nature's pinnacle of creation and it need go no further than me."<br /><br />Or, is it the case that in the struggle of Life against whatever is not Life, any advantage (a la boner pills) is helpful in advancing the cause of Life's ultimate survival in a cold, dark, uncaring universe?<br /><br />Is that question even answerable given our present state of knowledge?<br /><br />How do I sleep at night?Jim H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02088100982761595050noreply@blogger.com
