    Charles Darwin on Choosing a Significant Other

    1,489 words

    Charles Darwin’s main thesis in The Descent of Man is that mankind shares traits with animals and must have evolved from them via natural selection. Part of natural selection is sexual selection, which is competition within the species to impress mates. Darwin seeks to influence sexual selection in humans, imploring them to choose each other for their virtues rather than wealth or rank. (more…)

    Religion & Eugenics

    Paul Popenoe

    Foreword
    James Dunphy

    Paul Popenoe (1888-1979) was a leading figure in the American eugenics movement, publishing his book Applied Eugenics in 1918. The following chapter, “Religion and Eugenics,” is taken from it.

    Frank Salter’s On Genetic Interests

    2,042 words

    The members of an ethnic group who cease striving to preserve their ethnic genetic interest have their inclusive fitness — their adaptiveness — reduced to the individual fitness of children and close family. They are, in effect, leaving their ethnic genetic capital to chance — the vagaries of nature and the good-will of competing groups. — Frank Salter

    It may seem ironic that one of the most canonical pro-white and pro-white nationalist works ever written hardly mentions the white race at all. But it really isn’t ironic. (more…)

    Sociobiological Problem-Solving

    1,723 words

    I hope to see a rehabilitation and mass adoption of sociobiology and its thought tools in the years to come. The notion of society, human affairs, and politics as products of biology and the social sphere influencing biology, rather than the two magisteria being separate from each other, seemed intuitive to our ancestors, before socio and bio were cruelly rent from each other in the inglorious culmination of mind-body dualism which has plagued Western philosophy since the time of Plato.

    Comparing Monogamous & Polygamous Men, Part 1:

    Part 1 of 2 (Part 2 here)

    Ancestral mating patterns reconstructed from DNA reveal that “the pair-bond is a ubiquitous feature most commonly observed in the form of serial monogamy.” In other words, having one spouse is the norm for humans.

    An undercurrent of polygamy has coexisted with the monogamal norm, however. (more…)

    Predictions are Overrated

    2,358 words

    The people of the ancient Mediterranean had a peculiar belief. They believed that malodorous air, or bad air, was a cause of a particular disease which, owing to its origins, they named malaria. This was called the miasma theory of disease. Guided by this theory, they sought to build their cities away from sources of bad air, such as swamps and other bodies of stagnant, foul-smelling water.
