Martin, I don't want to criticise you, I just think you felt in a trap.
Its true that Darwin said that evolution is the survival of the strongest.
But it said that not that way. You said "in order to". The survival of the
strongest is only a consequence consequence of the natural selection.
Natural selection have no goal, its only a mechanism that happen in nature
and that explain, in part, the evolution process. I think its important to
not fall in a trap.
Its important to me that reader don't fall in a trap, that reader don't
misunderstand the evolution and natural selection.
