Not a copout at all!

'For centuries, writers have attempted to predict the future of the human race.
Some have argued that we are destined to evolve into super-beings, others that we are turning into dim-witted goblins incapable of anything more demanding than watching TV.
But according to a leading geneticist, both visions are wrong because human evolution has ground to a halt.

From ape to modern man: A leading geneticist told a lecture human evolution has ground to a halt.


Professor Steve Jones, of University College London, says the forces driving evolution - such as natural selection and genetic mutation - no longer play an important role in our lives.
The people living one million years from now, should Man survive, will resemble modern-day humans. '

Permit me to paraphrase: "We have run out of proofs for evolving humans et al, so we are now going to have to claim instead, that the human evolutionary process which has been going on inexorably for countless millions of years, has suddenly and arbitrarily stopped when we look for ongoing evidence!"

What really gets me is that any rational human being can ever take these jokers seriously. If it weren't all so very serious, it would be laugh-a-minute stuff.
