A contradiction. It is either your opinion or a fact; and while it may be your opinion that is is a fact, the distinction still needs to be made.

Just because you have the right to freely speak you opinions, that does not grant you the right to make up your own "facts". :roll:

Clearly you do not understand the theory of evolution: you might think you understand it, but you do not.

What I understand is that there are 2 viewpoints:

1. That evolution strives to become better than its previous incarnation, or

2. That evolution doesn't strive to be better, or worse. It just "happens", so to speak.

Personally, I subscribe to the first belief, simply because, if I was put in a different environment, and I somehow evolved to be worse at adapting, then my genes wouldn't pass on. And, in my opinion, a gene's main goal is to pass onto the next generation, which explains why we have a sex drive, and why sex feels good.

Sorry, but we don't do "autistic supremacy" or NT-bashing here.
