STP Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 (edited) So i've heard that without HIV medications and other preventative measures then AIDs would decimate the African population while some European and Asian populations who have individuals with genetic differences that do not allow the HIV virus to latch on, would have selective advantage to allow these individuals to pass on their genes. This is natural selection. Of course, you have to distinguish between macroevolution and microevolution. Edited December 12, 2007 by STP Quote
i_like_sun Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 The technology revolution coupled with resource depletion are ignited a new spurt in human evolution. Since the dawn of agriculture humans have selected for potential for their relative productive capacity within their localized society. Resource depletion can no longer support a system of prosperity and pro-creative desirability that is coupled with human labor and therefore population growth, however. The planet will soon have to de-populate, so a future system of prosperity that is decoupled from human labor will be created. The advent of artificial, creative intelligence and self replicating technologies will decouple prosperity from human labor, allowing de-population not only to occur, but to be favored by policy. Public policy, the ethics of sustainability, and economics will discourage large families. A gay lifestyle will not only become accepted, but encouraged. Gay marriages will flourish, produce more offspring, and the gay gene pool will expand. An increase in homosexual voter numbers will reinforce policies that encourage homosexuality; a positive feedback loop that will result in a natural selection for gay genes. In short, homosapiens will become more homo over time. In contrast, those who in the present world survive by physical labor, which will be less valuable over time, will become increasingly less desireable as mates. Their relative numbers will diminish. The goatee and mullet genes will eventually be bred out of the population. Similarly, the Born Again and Far Right genes, painfully obsolete even now, will also simply be bred out of the population. Genetic engineering will, of course, be employed to accelerate this process as the those in power become increasingly impatient with those who cling to the resource depletion model of human progress. Eventually, humankind will become a race of tall, buff, hip, hyper sensitive, giggly, well dressed metro-sexual liberals with a passion for gardening, collecting antique trucker paraphenalia and yelling at the robot help. When the nanobots finally take over, they won't know what hit them. Finally a jackass that rambles as badly as I do. Quote

archenemy Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 And yer a redneck. 5000 years ago, there were no rednecks. Evolution at work. Quote

archenemy Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 There still the cavewoman gene that likes a manly man. It is a recessive gene, but some of us do carry it. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 That's the only reason I have a social life beyond chasing small game with a stick. Quote
