Evolution and the superiority of the 'nerd'? (Score 2)

In past times it seemed that evolution would favor the strong. The guy who could smash rocks against his forehead and not even flinch. But now, we have wars that are engaged only between the greatest minds of the countries involved? Is this how 'social evolution' has progressed? Is the 'nerd' now the next alpha male in our human pack? I sure hope so, I'm definitely a nerd. :)
