TT:- So: mentioning fitness is confusing, because of the
many meanings of the word - and because the popular meanings
lead to misunderstanding. A measure of absolute fitness
would be more acceptable to me.
JE:- Why will nobody here admit that Darwinism does contain
an implicit absolute fitness?

box 1 Darwinian fitness: The total number of fertile forms
reproduced by each parent into one population.
______________________________________
The net results of the Darwinian absolute fitness proposal
above are:
1) Darwinism can be experimentally refuted or uniquely
verified testing Darwinian absolute fitness:
__________________________________________
box 2: Experimental test of Darwinian fitness. A natural
population that experimentally holds the total number of
fertile forms reproduced by each selectee within one
population equal, must halt all natural selection within
that population.
__________________________________________
2) Only a single level of selection exists within Darwinism
as defined in box 1.
3) Darwinian fitness cannot be selected to be reduced. Thus
selectees are not forced to do anything except maximise
Darwinian fitness. This singular nature of Darwinism
mimics a teleological system.
4) Just one case of organism fitness altruism documented
within nature refutes the Darwinian single level of
selection theory of natural selection.
5) If the experiment in box 2 if verified then multi fitness
levels are not verified so they can be validly removed
using Occam's Razor
