BlackSkullCortez Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 ... WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE!?!?!?!?!?!?

Ultimate Assassin Ninjew Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 If a power comes to you due to your body changing for the circumstance then its no longer a power.

BlackSkullCortez Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 ... yes. Because survival of the fittest would kill the rest of them. But I'm going to give you two scenarios that reflect why evolution generates powers. 1.[s] X-Men [/s] A family gets trapped in a closed cave for whatever reason. It has no light entering it, but it circulates air perfectly fine and it's in the tropics. The family has a child who genetically mutated to be able to have night vision. The parents die because they can't see as well as the child can. Because the child had night vision. 2. A family gets caught in an extremely cold region. They have a child with the genetic mutation to spontaneously combust and live (can't think of anything else that produces heat). His family dies because they get too cold. The child doesn't die because he can spontaneously combust and produce heat for himself. 3. A certain creature is born in an area closed off from oxygen. It manages to genetically adapt to become able to respirate the same way a plant does. It also manages to asexually reproduce because it is the only one of its kind. So, basically, the others die because they don't have the powers the survivors did. Hence why survival of the fittest works the way it is. Except, here's the question that follows. How come people with genetic weaknesses still exist? Well, humanity screws over survival of the fittest. There's why it would be considered a power. Because so few would actually be able to grow with that kind of mutation and since society can't accept them, they just become outcasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSkullCortez Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Two people have an only child. This trend runs through society. They all produce a certain genetic mutation. Only one family is either unable to pay the expenses for genetic construction or is able to live with that kind of mutation. So, that remainder is the only one with that power.

Blake Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 That doesn't make any sense ._. Why did these cases aappen? And, no, If I throw a baby creature into a vacuum, it will die.
