That was ALWAYS my meaning. Nothing in ANY of my posts (or statements) here or anywhere indicate otherwise. Any attempt to characterize my statements as otherwise are strawmen. Those humans most tolerant to pollutants and toxins in the habitat and food chain will (on avg. and with luck of time and place) produce the most robust and resilient offspring. Evolution is not an ethic (moral/immoral); it is an amoral process.
