Humans Are Still EVOLVING

[chad_tukes]

there is groundbreaking evidence that point towards the fact that humans are still evolving, according to a research group sponsored by the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center. this invalidates the original notion that human evolution has stopped. read more here:

Are humans still evolving? Absolutely, says new analysis of long-term survey of human health

if u've seen the movie time machine. some people lived in the caves , and mutated to monster ,. hehe

but im sure humans are evolving more bigger brain , smaler body.

neatherthal have much larger bones(femur) stronger,. but noe we have smaller . and soon in time it will become much smaller since its useless.

we siton the computers all day. we will look just like aliens.

we will inevitably be able to control how we will evolve, maybe we will eventually use technology to enhance human capabilities and even our physiological and physical features.

the singularity is coming.

binarypill will have to be more articulate than he is now, or an infraction will be on its merry way.

Going back to the topic, I remember a YouTube video coining a new term... "Homo Evolutis" which basically says that, one thing about evolution that's still ongoing in us humans right now is, we now have the power to alter its course via genetics/genetic engineering. The same way we hurdled the problem of storing a lot of information in our limited heads, to "secondary storage devices", known as books, and later on, media and computers.

In the movie Pandorum humans evolved also to fit their environment. Of course humans are evolving, you try to put an eskimo person in a tropic country, their sons/daughters will be slightly different from their parents, why? because the offspring will adapt and evolve in a manner to suit his.her environment. Sakto bah?

we change.... change we must.

I think this will correlate on human adoptation to environment I am not so sure.. but this will make a sense..

Most obvious thing to observe is the athlete evolution.

well we adopt but it does not mean we acquired new traits like flying... if we take environment as basis for evolution, who decided its time for monkeys to shed hairs and show some skin... people living in cold places dont grow hair all over their body...

That's not Darwinian, that's Lamarckism ( Lamarckism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ) which is an erroneous (and thus abandoned) idea of evolution.

@mlhl@7, @hobie, @cromagnon

then you are wrong mister...

nag evolve jud to bay but too slow for us to notice.
