Evolution at work -Zeno [/ QUOTE ] That's pretty cool, but are you pessimistic like me in thinking that we will evolve to get dumber, because it seems more intelligent people have less children on average than less intelligent people? |

Intelligence is a tricky concept at best.

Re: The evolving brain
Predictions can be difficult to make concerning humans. I would venture to say however that the time may come when humans will have more control over their own evolution - in some sense this may be inevitable with our increase in knowledge via science. A self made feed back loop will be set in motion (it is perhaps already started) once enough is know about the chemical/physical evolutionary processes that drive us.
Intelligence and human demographics is not something I know much about. I will defer that to others. -Zeno |
