We evolve.

Deal with it.

If we're still evolving we're gonna look so fat and lazy in 100 years.

Correction, we are devolving.

Ha Ha, very droll.

... Also how do you 'look' lazy?

100 years is only about 4 generations... which isn't very much time for evolution to act
particularly without any strong environmental selection pressure.

However it could equally go the other way, if being considered 'sexy' is an important
factor in reproducing and being 'sexy' requires being slim then there is a selection pressure
for those that keep themselves slim.

Of course there could also be the scenario where humanity splits into two species one which
values slimness and one which values plump 'curvyness'.

If the two groups keep the cross mating to a minimum after enough time they will diverge
from one another enough that they will no longer be able to successfully mate and produce
viable offspring.



Of course we are likely to take over our own genetic future long before that could ever happen,
but we haven't done that yet.

Which works well since there IS no higher authority. We are alone on this planet.

That is what you think, but you are wrong again.

I did agree with Sonhouse until I read this brilliant rebuttal.

it strikes me in real life rj would be fine - most of you would - but the people who really chastise him sound like right .... - don't think i'd want 1 min in there company - just an observation
