Default Re: Evolution #9

Maybe I used the wrong word again when I said “hoped” But, what I mean is a few things.

1) I guess I assumed the science of evolution has become more developed in its theory than simply natural selection that Darwin spoke of so many years ago. Certainly the science has developed, but has it come up with any further reason than natural selection? Most sciences “evolve” more - new theories, stuff like that.

2) Another reason I said “hoped” probably has something to do with my question on why emotions? There has got (I hope) to be more to life than just being. Life seems so silly to me without more reasons.
But, I am always looking for new things - whether it be things to do, things to read, projects, goals, etc.

Simply survival seems so mundane to me.

I am not exactly sure what I mean by “steering evolution through thought process” either. I guess I mean since we have a thinking brain - maybe it is there for more than just survival.
