I understood evolution to be basically about natural selection, like you all have said. I guess I assumed (hoped) there was more to it.

If it is only that, then since we have evolved into beings that basically have the ability to survive viz a viz other predatory species then why aren’t we done evolving? I understand evolution to be a never ending process. In fact just this evening on the news, scientists at the U of Chicago (fairly sure it was there) think the human brains are still evolving. If we are still evolving then for what reason? Seems we haven't stopped evolving.

Besides, I find it hard to believe that human evolution has ended. How can it just stop after billions of years?

Also, why did we evolve into being with emotions?

I will do your recommended google search, but really I was thinking more in terms of steering evolution through thought process.

Btw, way I guess I used the wrong word - I didn’t mean the right path, so much as a different and perhaps better path.

Thanks for you post.
