Re: the process of de-evolution has begun
i understand when people say that evolution is not climbing a ladder but running on a treadmill, but is there any reason to believe that our technology isn't going to continue to advance drastically? A graph of our progress, unlike animals, looks like a ladder, not a treadmill.
Also, I don't understand how evolution created ethics or why some people are geniuses and other people are a step above mentally retarded? Are the geniuses caused by smart people reproducing with each other over and over? No, they are just random. So, how has evolution made us smarter? It doesn't really seem that it has.
Also, if our genes just want us to reproduce and so many of the educated people are against having more than a few kids, doesn't that seem odd? Are we in a battle against our genes right now?
It is a fact that people are getting dumber. Just how dumb are they going to get in three or four hundred years?
