  • I'd need to see evidence to prove any current "evolving". Any humans growing wings out there?

    • There are genetic mutations that confer resistance to Malaria and HIV that are spreading. Also lactase persistence is a mutation that is likely to spread.

      Wings are unlikely. It is not likely that someone would have children with someone whose arms are becoming more wing-like . So the very slow progression to wings cannot really happen. People tend to see that sort of physical deformity as very undesirable.

      • We also need to adapt to all the toxic chemicals and pollution we subject ourselves to if our species, any species, is going to persist.
