Zusammenfassung

Toleranz ist der Verdacht, dass der andere Recht hat.

Kurt Tucholsky

Mutationen setzten die Evolution in Gang und sorgen dafür, dass sie nie zur Ruhe kommt. Doch nur die natürliche Auslese war in der Lage, die durch Mutationen produzierte Vielfalt von Genotypen und demzufolge auch Phänotypen zu funktionierenden Ökosystemen zu formen. Hier stellt sich die Frage, auf welcher Ebene ausgelesen wird. Was wird ausgemerzt? Sind es Gene, Zellen, Organismen (Individuen), Familien, Gruppen, Arten oder gar ganze Ökosysteme?

Toleranz ist der Verdacht, dass der andere Recht hat.

Kurt Tucholsky
