A question was just posted asking if evolutionists believed humans are still evolving:

Assuming that someone who DIDN'T believe evolution ever happened would say that we WERE still evolving, the answerers were presumably all persauded that evolution is a well-supported theory and that it resulted in the evolution of modern humans.
It struck me as strange, therefore, that many seemed to think that it is necessary for us STILL to be evolving or the theory is undermined. Evolution may always be happening, but an individual species is not always evolving. An evolutionary biologist would point out that getting healthier or developing better technology is NOT the same as biological evolution.
So much as I dislike challenging those who share my view of evolution -- have you actually read and understood Darwin?
I gave my reasons for saying no at the link above. If you don't agree (fine), I'd like your interpretation of natural selection.
