Re: Humans Have Stopped Evolving
Well of course humans are devolving. I'm surprised anybody would be surprised at the idea that it isn't.
Humans today are more likely to commit crime than has happened in our history. Crimes of murder, rape, sexual abuse, animal abuse, vandalism, drunkeness, unacceptable behaviour, peeing and defacating in the streets, kids having kids, all of which happened in the past, so we haven't come a long way, have we, because this still happens?
Fortunately, the majority of our species knows right from wrong and don't commit such ugly and unacceptable behavioural patterns, but there are still the sub-humans amongst us so no, human behaviour has not evolved, despite technology, many are regressing, and those regressing are having children who will follow their patterns.
Animals don't do that, and I hate it when a killer or abuser is called an animal because that's an insult to animals. Animals don't murder; animals don't rape in the truest sense of the word; animals don't get drunk and pee in your gardens - I'll stop there, but I think you'll get my meaning.
For those of you who remember the 60s, think back and remember how gentle those times were. Yes, there was still crime, but nothing like it is now.
I agree with MickB, but indeed a new species of human is now developing, and most certainly not for the better.
