Well i hope so But isnt that more of a cultural change or do our brains need to develop to do it? I suspect we could get there now, just not enough people want to.

It's odd to me that if evolution is real that it would suddenly stop.
I suppose if this were true it would be sort of anticlimactic. I mean looking into the mirror I am now peering at future man a million years in our future.
He needs a shave.

Furthermore, our evolution will certainly not stop. Sure some animals like sharks and crocodiles have been perfected so well for their environment they have stopped changing for a very long time now, but if the environment changes the animal changes."

The author is talking about selective breeding and survival of the fittest. He makes some darn good points actually. Modern breeding practices and modern medicine are having a huge effect on natural selection. Sure we will continue to evolve but not like we used too.

A promiscous woman is hardly likely to be intelligent, and neither are her offspring.

What? I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder, however with the advent of BIRTH CONTROL the rate of offspring depends more on iq/education/socio-economic background than it does on the number of partners one has.
In fact the best, brightest, and most beautiful have far fewer offspring than their less advantaged counterparts.
