More importantly, who put that stinking "discussion leader" title next to my name? I'm no stinking discussion leader.
Anyway, back to the topic, I think we're going to grow a third arm that will be used specifically for texting on cell phones and help us generally become more proficient at multi-tasking. Maybe a third eye too.

Assuming evolution is factual, what do you think is the next step in our evolution?

Ant, I assume you're joking about the stars. But in case you're not Scrumfish joined in March of 2004. You joined in June of 2011. In June of this year you'll get another star. The system is automated.

Can you bypass the automation and give me several more stars?Chris OConnor wrote:Ant, I assume you're joking about the stars. But in case you're not Scrumfish joined in March of 2004. You joined in June of 2011. In June of this year you'll get another star. The system is automated.

We'll be an idiocracy once computers do all the heavy thinking. The dumb ones are already breeding like rabbits.

Tooth decay will be a thing of the past because human beings will grow beaks.
Beaks don't get cavities or gingivitis. Also, polishing the outside of a beak is much easier than brushing.
Dental bills will be a thing of the past.
Beak transplants for humans that have yet to develop full beaks will be expensive but necessary.
People will have to forgo costly science degrees to afford beak transplants because survival in your environment depends more on a beak than your ability to do physics.
Just ask Johnson. For survival reasons, he'd go with the beak.
Quantum physics is of no use at the dinner table or out in the wild.

Scrumfish is right.
For Scrumfish, I didn't indicate it but everyone who knew me understood it was a lame attempt at sarcasm

Hehe, I was absolutely not trying to be in your face. And yeah, I've been a member of the forum for years but have been inactive for quite a few years. I'm dipping my toes back in the waters because it's nice to be able to discuss things from the perspective of evolution as a fact without having to argue it all the time and really enjoy that about this forum. Hopefully I'll stick around long enough to enjoy your sarcastic wit. I'm a bit sarcastic myself and have to watch out for that when dealing in text format! That and my giant potty mouth.Dexter wrote:johnson1010 wrote:Ina you FACE dexter!

Also, sign me up for that third arm and beak. How awesome would that be?

Re: Assuming evolution is factual, what do you think is the next step in our evolution?
No way of knowing because evolution essentially describes what is seen and pieces together what was.
It is descriptive more than it is predictive. Good theories are predictive and based on mathematics.
At what point did hominids become human and was that a predictable occurrence?

I siad it is MORE descriptive than predictive. I didnt say it's not at all predictive.
And no one here is holding out on evolution.
Dexter dont read too well, people. He just reacts a lot.
Not necessary to be Darwin's Bulldog, bruh. He already had one.
