Thread: Future of the human race

The human race will one day split into two separate species, an attractive, intelligent ruling elite and an underclass of dim-witted, ugly goblin-like creatures, according to a top scientist.
100,000 years into the future, sexual selection will mean that two distinct breeds of human will have developed.
The alarming prediction comes from evolutionary theorist Oliver Curry from the London School of Economics, who says that the human race will have reached its physical peak by the year 3000.

The new report shows that after they reach their peak around the year 3000 humans will begin to regress.

These humans will be between 6ft and 7ft tall and they will live up to 120 years.
"Physical features will be driven by indicators of health, youth and fertility that men and women have evolved to look for in potential mates," says the report, which suggests that advances in cosmetic surgery and other body modifying techniques will effectively homogenise our appearance.
Men will have symmetrical facial features, deeper voices and bigger penises, according to Curry in in a report commissioned for men's satellite TV channel Bravo.
Women will all have glossy hair, smooth hairless skin, large eyes and pert breasts, according to Curry.
Racial differences will be a thing of the past as interbreeding produces a single coffee-coloured skin tone.
It's not all good news for our descendants however.
While humans will reach their peak in 1000 years' time, 10,000 years later our reliance on technology will have begun to dramatically change our appearance.
Medicine will weaken our immune system and we will begin to appear more child-like.
Dr Curry said: "The report suggests that the future of man will be a story of the good, the bad and the ugly.
"While science and technology have the potential to create an ideal habitat for humanity over the next millennium, there is the possibility of a monumental genetic hangover over the subsequent millennia due to an over-reliance on technology reducing our natural capacity to resist disease, or our evolved ability to get along with each other.
"After that, things could get ugly, with the possible emergence of genetic 'haves' and 'have-nots'."
Dr Curry's theory may strike a chord with readers who have read H G Wells' classic novel The Time Machine, in particular his descriptions of the Eloi and the Morlock races.
In the 1895 book, the human race has evolved into two distinct species, the highly intelligent and wealthy Eloi and the frightening, animalistic Morlock who are destined to work underground to keep the Eloi happy.

Pass me a bite of that little guy over there.

I don't care what the apes or their like thinking humans say . Even Darwyn himself admitted that his theory was jus that " theory ". Not to speak of quatum physics proving him wrong .

I will go for the revelation and leave the evolution to the un-learned .

Speaking of unlearned, how are those adult classes coming along for you?
Where you talking about Charles Darwin?

Precision is the key...

This is very interesting. I'm so fascinated by genetics! As one who believes in Darwinism, I've sometimes wondered how humans will continue to evolve...because make NO mistake about it, folks, we ARE continuing to evolve.

Too bad I won't be around in 10,000 years to see it!

So I don't spell or have good grammar, did you know Eienstein had the same problem ? But I guess it was because he was so ignorant .

Anyway I forgot more than you'll ever know !

Okay, in all fairness....TheFormorian, you have a typo too. I think you meant to type "were".

Anyway, my point is that we all make little spelling, grammar and punctuatiion errors when we type....especially when we're feeling a bit emotional about the subject.

Nooooooo, well, OK, I guess I did screw the pooch on that one!
