CONFUSING to understand your theorey

There is no such thing as evolution. People confuse adaptation and mutation with evolution. The premise of evolution is that one species turns into another. There are absolutely no fossil records to indicate intermittent species. People claim when a bacterium becomes resistant to antibiotics that is proof of evolution. That is only proof of adaptation because the bacterium is still bacterium, not a gopher or an oak tree. Darwinism is only a theory, one that has been disproved time and time again. It shouldn't even be taught.

When you look at the fossil record of the earth, it is totally fascinating the myriad life forms that once inhabited this planet. One of the best sites is in British Columbia, Canada, believe it or not, where you can see that at one time, the earth had over 100 life themes. Now, we have only 50 life themes with all the life forms we experience here being part of one of those 50 themes. Consequently, when you consider this, where we might end up is an interesting question.

It seems as though "Survival of the Fittest" is in play due to the fact that we now have 50 themes where once there were over 100. So life seems to continue to hone itself down to the most viable of life forms. Those that can adapt to the changes in the environment and availability of food to eat in order to survive.

So it really isn't all that confusing. What we have is the result of life being able to adapt to continual change. So...

Will human beings survive? That's an excellent question. Certainly it's looking more difficult all the time. We continue to degrade the earth's environment while at the same time, continue to breed. Will we be able to feed all the people we continue to produce? And if we can feed them, will they be able to survive with the air and water becoming more toxic? These are serious questions when you consider...

When I was a child, I'd never heard of asthma. There were no kids in my class suffering from this disease. Nor did I ever know anyone who had a peanut allergy. No one carried around Epi Pens or had to use one of those puffers you see people with asthma use. Nor did anyone drink bottled water. The water coming out of your household tap was good enough to drink!

So I wonder. In my short lifetime, I've seen the changes people have had to contend with due to the degradation of our environment. That alone should be some kind of proof that as a species, we, along with all the other life forms must contend with environmental changes. Those changes impact our very survival so on this point, Darwin was correct. I simply cannot see how anyone, believer or non believer, can possibly refute the impact of environmental change on all life currently living on this planet.

The debate over how we came to be will always rage. Was it entirely the result of evolution, or were we created? I personally think, in the end, it doesn't really matter at the present moment. What should matter is how we are soiling the only home we have. We are literally "shitting where we live" and if we don't start showing some real will to change our habits, we will go the way of the dinosaurs, with some other life form eventually taking our place. A life form that can survive and thrive in the kind of environment we leave behind.

It should continue eventually.

Of course we won't be able to appreciate it because it takes a very long time to naturally get significant results... but humanity is still evolving.

As for what its evolving into though...
My personal estimate is...... greys.

Yes... those little aliens with the big heads, grey skin, bald heads, big black eyes... etc. Seems pretty likely that humanity is going to be headed that way eventually.
Of course it will take quite some while to actually end up anything like that.... and I suspect that it will require some amount of eugenics to take place before we can achieve it, otherwise things could end up going in reverse. If the overwhelming idiocy of religion remains in play then we could end up devolving back into cave-dwelling grunty things.
The reason why I suspect the greys are the way we're ideally going is because they exhibit traits that scientifically speaking are the natural progression of what has been followed so far: Gender differences are becoming in many respects less important, intelligence is being favoured over brute muscle-mass... and more importantly, with the possibility that humanity will be expanding into space... we won't need such a strong frame to hold ourselves up, skin colour will become less important in the blackness of space, and our eyes... being our most-used organs... may well expand and draw back the irises to allow optimal light collection in deep blackness.


Of course this is partially guess-work... because to some extent evolution is rather random. The thing is though, its often fairly easy to understand what would be optimal adaptations for particular conditions, and since it is only those adaptations which are advantageous (typically optimal where possible) that will naturally be favoured by selective pressure and thus spread to fixation..... it is thereby possible to make an educated guess at which direction evolution will take assuming a particular future scenario.

Of course if we stay on the Earth and never go zooming off into space, the Grey theory seems significantly less likely, though perhaps still possible in parts.



Anyhow.... If you ignorant theists have any more questions about evolution.... seriously... e-mail me. I have a degree in Palaeobiology, so its my business to know about evolution. Given enough time I could explain it well enough that even the most defiant christian could understand.

I don't know anyone who believes that we came from monkeys. We may have a common ancestor to all of the other primates, but it was not a monkey. I have heard all of this before, I heard someone say that birds can evolve in their groups but they will still be birds, the same could be said about people, people are primates. Primates can evolve inside of their own group but in the end they will still be primates. I am not sure if we will evolve past what we are because our technology Shields us from the effects of the environment. It is the changes in environment that stimulate the need to evolve. We now have to ability to change our environment so as not to affect our daily lives to drastically.

If you have a problem with people being primates, then it sounds like you need to take that up with your maker. Seems to me he should not have made our DNA so close to other primates on this planet if he did not want us to learn that they are our distant cousins.

I stared at your question for a full five minutes till I got the gist of it. As for evolution believe what you want. But I find it hard to think that two single people created the world. The Bible is proof that Men created this religion. So I often think that the whole religion is just a myth.
Believe what you want.

we are still evolving yes we are taller and live longer than people a hundred years ago and in about 20 million years the sun will go nova and destroy the earth so i dont think man will be around for ever

Oh, I can't believe I'm saying this, but you have your theories wrong. It's not, we came from monkeys, we have a common ancestor. Somewhere, our evolutionary tree forked off from chimps. They evolved into monkeys and we became man. That fork is called the missing link, which has never been found. If I'm getting this all right, that is.

For the record, I think evolution did happen, but I think God started the process.

I do not know of anyone that thinks we evolved from monkeys. A common ancestor, yes. The human race will die out in several thousand years.

Evolution isn't something you can witness in a matter of a couple generations -- it takes many, many, many years for it to happen. Yes, the human beings of today will eventually evolve into something else, but you and I will be long gone before that happens.

The below link has a really interesting article about the future of human evolution.

no a monkey will always be a monkey and a human will always be a human, the rest is pure speculation and of no logical sense.
