[MD] Social Darwinism

[David M]

Hi Krim

I'd certainly accept the proposition that both good and
evil are possible and available for us to embrace if we
so choose to. Hard to tell them apart quite often, which
of these possibilities we are trying to actualise is what the
fighting and arguing is all about.
