yup.
from Steven's and Rally's opinion we can draw the line onwards:
towards an even more elitist oriented mankind than blue-blood or money-based education hatched, before.
physical ability (grasping the calculus is just that: a physical ability of the brain) will be the fascist prime selection criteria.
and - if you look at it coldly from nature's evaluational point of view - that's not a bad criteria at all.
presumably more successful than blue blood or money as selection criteria.
You guys probably all know the movie Gattaca. So, something like that.
The people who can invent computer stuff and run the finance of the world(s) - they will be alpha.
Me personally, I will be a Beta- human or maybe a Gamma-plus-human in that society.
(I have the handicap of being female, hence the "Gamma" assumption as measured from our current male dominated society ...with the "plus" of being quite intelligent for a female as measured by the current values which make up our understanding of intelligence. of course, this also might change. who knows.)
I don't even really know how to translate the term "calculus" into German maths as taught in grammar school. and I probably didn't understand it, anyway, back then.
Selection has to happen, somehow.
Why not by making it appear as a present to those who will eventually suffer from it. Makes the bitter taste go away, aye.
