say that alaska and antartica which were once covered in snow, now has a different face and appearance. In other words, since different physical being evolved from another, or evolved to another state or form; will we do the same? If so, when do you think the evolution of mankind will take place, if the evolution of the earth is already taking place? Do you think that it will happen this lifetime? keep in mind all of the occurences that has anything to do with evolutionary change.

Evolution is a journey, not a destination. If we're evolving all the time, then you won't see the results per se as you live it.
For instance, now, we can see what we were in the past and how we are now, but we currently are not the "end result" because there is none; it's an eternal process.

this is a question that can not be answered... alot of people think the earth should always be static.. or stay the same.. thus you have people running around yelling Global warming... back in the 70's most of these same people yelled global cooling.. they even had the entire newsweek mag.. i think it was from cover to cover with all the science saying it was over.. we cant be wrong. we will cool off and starve to death... personally..and using common cent$ you should know nothing stays the same.. the earth has lost the very air we breath around 9 times in its long history.. and it will again.. also if you take into consideration that the moon is moving about 1 1/2 to 2 inches away from the earth every year.. one day the moon and the earth will reach a point that they both stop rotating and they will show each other the same face day in and out which means one side of earth will be hotter than the other side..and the days will be longer than they are now

well evolution relies heavily upon natural selection. This is difficult for humans to be naturally selected because we have an ability that other animals do not. We can change our environment.
For example take Allen's Law:
As a the geographical location of a species goes farther north the limbs of said species will be shorter in length then those of the same species that is farther south. and vice versa for the souther hemisphere.
well we as human's when we get cold just put on a coat where a species has to worry about surface area and how much is exposed to the cold. We don't have to evolve in that way because we can control our body temperature. When it gets cold outside we go inside and turn on the heater. It just doesn't work as well for humans.

that is a good question, when we have fully evolved does it also mean everyone will be white ?
