From a WSJ opinion piece:
Does it ever occur to folks like William Brown that extinction is one of
the natural outcomes of Darwinian evolution as it goes through the
process of selecting the strongest species for survival (“Wanted: A Noah’s Ark for Species’ DNA,”
op-ed, April 23)? Does it ever occur to them that maybe extinction is
nature’s method of improving the viability of the biosphere as a whole?
Does it ever occur to them that mankind’s activities that result in
species extinction are in fact simply part of the process of Darwinian
selection? Does it ever occur to them that mankind’s attempts to prevent
extinction possibly, just possibly, might in fact be an unnatural act
that ultimately harms the health of the biosphere?
