Weird. A GilDo post that seemingly defies Dodgenation:

So powerful has been Darwinian indoctrination that it leads some people to become completely irrational, even people who are thoroughly rational in other ways. Natural selection created both selfishness and altruism, and it created parents who protect their children at risk to their own lives, but also parents who train their children to commit suicide.
No matter what the scenario — selfishness, altruism, self-preservation, suicide — natural selection selected them all to perpetuate our selfish genes. What a wonderful, all-encompassing “theory” that explains everything, but how utterly ridiculous.

And yet, it's still completely unoriginal and tedious.

Again "how much". I don't think that's a good way to be quantitative.-- gpuccio
