BBC: A More Efficient Body Construction?

that’s an interesting concept, though–through evolution we conceivably achieved a desire for life/self preservation (very much an adaptive advantage) and in a way, evolution could be said to inadvertently set up a teleology? Sort of like the Star Trek “Vger” story.

My error was that I said a few months back that the human body got rid of unfit embryos --@argon appropriately reminded me that there was not a teleology there; I guess the got rid of themselves, among other factors (though there was a paper that implied that the body can recognize unfitness sometimes)Pregnancy: too badly designed? Zygotes not implanted, miscarriages... where's God? - #5 by Argon

Just an interesting meander. Thanks.
