The Importance of Sensibility in Darwin's Theory of Evolution
I think that there's a way to put on sensibility in some kind of general sense. Bergson talks about how adaptations can't be random or certain variations can't work the way Darwin says because they're insensible. It does seem like he perhaps downplays the notion of a critical threshold whereas you brought up the boiling water analogy where there's a phase change but at a certain point you do reach these critical singularities. I guess I will in order to keep the conversation going at least a little bit more because we have covered well I was just trying to figure out if this is an issue for him too.
