![]() ![]() Credits: 975 | Human Race Devolving........ i saw a movie recently (not saying any names) that brought up a very good point that may hit home with a very large number of ppl that r active members of ao........jk............ it stated that darwins theory of evolution is that basically the smarter and the stronger animals of a species will continue to evolve as the slower and less intelligent species begin to die off......... well isnt the opposite happening with the human species 2day.........the majority of men and women that are smarter and would have the biggest impact on the human gene pool, would be classified as the unattractive and least likely to "mate", while the more good looking dim witted males (lyke myself...... ....) are the ones that are actually out there mating lyke jack rabbits at a pretty ricky concert.............basically my question is this........do u believe that with the ongoing rate of "wrong mating" that is happening 2day.........the human race may actually be devolving............

wtf mate? | Re: Human Race Devolving........ I can see where your going, but prehaps even it's the opposite? you say divine_punish is that we are 'going to waste' (which is prehaps true, I don't disagree with u there), but maybe looking at Evolution..it's just natural selection? Those who sit on there butts all day will just die out ( gene pool will disappear) and those who are healthier will live on to pass on genes or evolve. or even (which I hate to think so) it is just another phase of evolution where we are adapting to the technology around us. The possibilities are endless. but as for what you said heartless_mage I think I disagree a bit, because..not all "ugly" people don't mate and not all "good looking' people a dim witts. You can also have ugly and dumb people as well. I guess what I'm getting at is that it's totally random, I dont think that 'devolving' as anything to do with your looks or how smart you are ![]() and prehaps it's not even devolving, because wouldn't that mean we are going backwards? Becoming Nethrandrals again? I would just call it evolution anyway? because evolution has a lot to do with adaptation, environment, populations etc etc. Who knows, if your right hearless_mage then prehaps the future of homo sapians is some dim witted evolutionary verson of us XD Or maybe if we are lucky we have enough power over the gene pool with all the technology we have that we don't have to worry about what we will become ( prehaps stopped evolution of humans all together?) ..yeah.. I really thought about this one..XD

| Devoted Otaku | Re: Human Race Devolving........ This isn't what you're talking about. But lots of human beings are surviving with deformities and illnesses when in the past they would have died off or be killed forcibly. An example I could think of is someone with a severe skin disorder surviving into adult hood when they would have died as a young child. Or a child born with a genetic defect that would be mistaken as a troll or a monster and killed.

Ugly people with huge amounts of money get to mate with the prettiest girls you can ever imagined for example; Flavor Flave, 50 cents etc. Unless, you happen to be a poor ugly guy chances of getting laid and settle down are 5 out of 10. | |

![]() ![]() Credits: 975 | Re: Human Race Devolving........ divine punishment: i meant more along the lines mentally........because its a proven fact that we as a species are becoming more "fragile"........... and i c wat u all r tlking about.........but those are concentrated cases............and i hate to stereotype......but the majority of really intelligent guys i kno.......wouldnt be classified as the the handsome.....same with girls......tho there are some....... they are widely outnumbered........

![]() ![]() Credits: 59,725 | Re: Human Race Devolving........ Hmmm... it does seem so... but im not sure if its because of the "wrong mating".. but it's an interesting theory ^^ kinda remind me of the movie... Knocked Up.. sheeshWell...it is even stated that humans become more dumb as one of the judgement day's sign in my religion.. and it is true...there are more dumb ones out there.. ![]() |

![]() ![]() Credits: 5,730 | Re: Human Race Devolving........ this reminds me of a song * in the year 2525* is talks about how we will be so advanced our legs and arms will just wither and go limp from not using them , and this point is starting to be realised as people use the Internet more for meeting ,starting home based businesses etc. we are not really devolving we are just getting to the point where we don't have to be as active because of advancements in technology which making us slower physically , i think also that in the next 20 years we will see more people meeting online than in person as the PC age gets more popular which it will . and as for mating habits i see us devolving in the way where people go by what you look like and what kind of life style you live , and not be sci-fi but with how things are going i see man kind actually cutting sex out of life totaly and just going to the local sperm bank for a baby where they can choose what they want there child to be like . if it sounds like I'm a bit off I'm not because i look at the hole picture and see us becoming more lazy about things.

![]() ![]() Credits: 873 | Re: Human Race Devolving........ Think back to the past (I hope no one failed history) when people were semple minded and didn't have what we have to day. Back the people would run for there lives insted for fun like today. As time gos on we will be more advanced and need to move less. Evolution dosen't mean being stronger just how we turn out. If somthing is to devolve that would require time (not itself) to go backwards.
