One is reluctant to admit this. Yet it seems as if there was almost the same warrant for ascribing the emergence of reason to natural selection as for imputing to its agency any other new thing that arises in the course of evolution. Darwin's language we have pro- nounced ill-balanced. Natural selection does not create. p 210 COMTE TO BENJAMIN KIDD PART in In speaking as if it did, Darwin ignores a co-operating factor of even greater consequence, the capacity for aggregate variation in the mate...rial. Moreover, selection out of non-telic elements seems possible, if at all, only in the lower ranges of evolution, where fecundity is greatest. Yet it may be held that reason emerges by means of the process called natural selection, and by means of a process in which natural selection, i. E. Struggle and elimination, have certainly played some considerable part. On the assumption of evolution all along the line, it is implied that [what is on the surface] a natural process has led up to the spiritual forces of morality and reason.
