Claims and counter claims for title 2!

[usernamed]

I'm doing question 2 in the prescribed titles.

It states that "knowledge within a discipline develops according to the principles of natural selection." How useful is this metaphor?

And the two areas of knowledge I'm gonna look at are the natural sciences and religious knowledge.

I wrote a thesis statement in my intro.

So I was wondering whether my counter claims should be against my thesis statement ?

If that makes any sense.

Like for example.. If I said that the scientific method follows the principles of natural selection..

Should my counter claim be an example of theories in science that don't follow the principles of natural selection? Or should my counter claim be on how the scientific method doesn't follow the principles of natural selection??

Your counter claim should essentially counter your argument, so yeah it should be against your thesis. In this case, your counter claim should be an example of how the scientific method doesn't follow natural selection.
