Evolution - what next?

Fanny Wank

Seeing as we alledgedly came from monkeys (I still have trouble with that one, the priest who 'befriended' me when I was young told a different story) where are we headed in the next million years? A few ideas?

Minge Hair: No one likes it, even women. If enough start shaving it off will it disappear forever in time?

Knob sizes: Men like having big knobs, women like having big knobs inside them. What with enhancement surgery etc will the average knob size increase?

Useless body parts: Apparently the appendix is a useless body part. will other parts go the same way? If so which? Ger Cannings Voicebox? Ronan Keatings knob? (come on Ronan, we all know the truth).

Anyone else any ideas?

Evolution will be taking a break for the time being, hopefully it won't take a step backwards. :rolleyes:

maybe, but not because people shave it off. it might happen because men might tend towards women who have light minge hair so the "light minge hair" gene takes over

maybe but not because of enhancement surgery, possibly because women might tend towards men with big knobs so the "big knob" gene takes over. if they tended towards men who had been enhanced through surgery who didn't have the big knob gene, it would never take over

There's a number of factors.

Evolution only works when natural selection or success of reproduction comes into play. As a politically correct society, we tend to help those who evolution would've deselected a long time ago, eg. the handicapped, long term unemployed, etc.

You'll probably find that a stronger immune system will come into play with the increase in anti-biotic resistant bacteria.
Also, if the global temperature increases by say 4% by 2100 then only those able to adapt to hotter climates or migrate will thrive.

The baby finger provides most of the strength in the human grip, so I don't think its going anywhere

Kenno90

lol you not far off , people will start to become less and less hairy to the point were we are hairless , we don't need hair at all , clothes keep us warm ,

as for knob sizes, humans already have huge knobs compared to other mammals of equal size to us , take the gorilla , 2 inches is normal for them ,

and useless organs like the appendix, 3rd eyelid and the Darwin point are in the last stages of vanishing altogether , only a certain % of people have these and in a few thousand years (really small time evolutionary times)

I have a virtually hairless body, no nipples, 12 toes and fingers, Ihave the power of telekenesis and I can read minds. Evolution is my bitch and I am your god and your future.

The left arm will be replaced with a tray so eating of curries at 3am while drunkenly shuffling home will be accomplised easier.

I'm sure I read something about this.
That we would be less hairy, have much smaller chins and larger heads.
Think a bald Mr. Burns.
We will also be weaker and probably lazier.

I'd imagine more intelligent and possibly taller and fatter.

Would we not be more likely to evolve with weaker immune systems due
to that fact that children are 'wrapped in cotton wool' so much these days?

Hopefully the general populace will develop the intelligence to actually understand evolution. But seeing how ignorance is "in" I can't see that being a selection pressure.

Meh.
That reeks of small man syndrome and a dude with a tiny pecker. I'm speaking from experience here. The pecker part anyway.

I reckon we'll have worse memory, from relying on t'internet so much for information.

Also, a newer version of the English language will be made up to accomodate for those that don't know the difference between words like then/than and saying "should of" instead of "should have" will be acceptable.

I think longer and more dextrous fingers will reign supreme.

Well Language is the fastest evolving thing on the planet. Unfortunately txt speak is becoming more and more common until it gets generally excepted.

evolution is on the way out. genetic engineering is the future. so basically you can have whatever the fack you want. 3 appendixes, hair everywhere, a penis on every limb if that's what you're in to.

evolution is just something they teach little kids to scare them away from paedophile priests. really we were invented by aliens who are having a good laugh at us now.

We could end up with an extremely hairy human race since shaving came in. Either way it's impossible to tell who is hairy and who isn't until you see them naked and it's a fact hairy women will take down and rape any naked man/woman (depending on preference).

If you want to see where the evolution of any species is going, all you have to do is look at what the female of the species is reproducing with.

Shacklebolt

Apparently evolution favours larger appendixes because smaller ones are more likely to burst-and therefore kill you removing you from the gene pool.

Surely the real interesting thing is the interface between humans and the concept of evolution.

When will man actually be able to manage its own evolution?
In other words will man ever be able to engineer its own evolution rather than be a passive player.
Would such active engineering of evolution be a good thing?

Will evolution always be intrinsically tied to reproduction?
Or will man develop other ways of managing their evolution?
Does evolution have to remain organically based?
What about the role of technology in all this?
How much will man combine with machine?
Will cybernetics be evolvable?
And again is this a good thing?

I'm sure AH has the answers. :pac:

You obviously missed the "Will this be a good thing?" bit then.

In many respects it obviously won't be a good thing.
It will be interesting to see what will happen.

With advancing technology (genetics etc as another poster mentioned), some sort of engineering of evolution is (rightly or wrongly) inevitable.

So how humanity deals with this inevitability will be interesting to say the least.

Now where are you getting hitler from all that.
It'll be interesting how humanity deals with these developments.

the sun doesnt burn out. but there's a switch on the side of it somewhere. if you can find the switch you can turn it off. will solve global warming if you leave it off for a few days.

why can't we just fuppin turn it off when we're not using it. :mad:
