He listed examples of human behaviors injurious to genetic reproduction which have not been eliminated by evolution:

Here are ten such characteristics, without even going past the first letter of the alphabet. Abortion; adoption; fondness for alcohol; altruism; anal intercourse; respect for ancestors; susceptibility to aneurism; the love of animals; the importance attached to art; asceticism, whether sexual, dietary, or whatever.


Granted, some are more injurious than others. But the point is humans are not driven by Darwinian evolution.
