  • Some people in the scientific community think that somehow the human body will evolve into a horribly disfigured body in a 1000 years or so due to technology. I dont think this is the case, it's too soon of a time to have that massive of a change in biology. What people fail to realize is that humans by and large have remained the same level of intellect for the last few thousands of years it's just that learning institutions have become more prevalent. The problem with technology is the simple fact no matter what ailment you may have technolgy can fix it to some degree. This in later generations lead to more mutations that would straight up kill us more than a hundred years ago. Humans of the future will likely look like humans of today and the past. Though the possibility on only having one race in the future is optimistic about the human condition at best... or the worst form of pessimism.

    • Yeah its weird to think about it like that. We are interfering with natural selection.

      • Eugenics wasnt far from the unfortunate truth. Eugenics would go further if it was done slowly over time rather than wholesale genocide.

        Such as maybe just sterilizing the very mentally ill (snip snip).

            • And have kids when she in fact doesn't want them? That guy is a piece of scum. Just because a dude with a dick would be a dick and take advantage of a mentally disabled woman, does not mean said mentally disabled woman should be castrated!
