 The Future of Human Evolution
The Future of Human Evolution
What will your descendants look like in five million years?
There are a lot of variables in the equation, including whether or not humans beings will survive at all. This site looks at a bunch of alternate views of a possible future. picked by VooDooPeacock 3 years ago

It's an interesting site, based on an interesting idea - that we could/should influence our future evolution.

(I am reminded for the second time in a couple of days of Isaac Asimov's Foundation Series, featuring the "science" of psychohistory. One of the contradicting requirements for using it, though, was the need for humanity to be unaware of its application).

Unfortunately a lot of the actual content on the website is pseudo-scientific babble in grammatically-challenged english. For example: "...I think that there must be a pinpoint spectrum of organic material that acts as a code that induces physical change to all things alive. If so, every living thing has this agent that provides the necessary elemental properties in biology to mutates as well as actually induce the mutation process itself. This agent is the sole proprietor in making certain everything alive is slightly changed as generations reproduce, thus it has become the main culprit as an antidote to identical replication." See what I mean? This kind of stuff will make the site very tiresome to read...

Here are another couple of pseudo-scientific jewels from the same site:

"Mind you, when I talk of reflex and decision, I am not talking about logical reasoning, but primal instinct (which in my opinion is a type of intelligence) and ability to respond to their reflexes by producing survival tactics no matter how primal they may be."

"In concluding this commentary, I ask you to consider the vice that promotes change and whether or not this change can ultimately survive the constant onslaught of environmental changes throughout time. How well adapted is the art of adaptation anyway?"

Deeply profound thoughts may be hiding in there, but unfortunately well-hidden by this verbose and confusing grammar.

I find it a bit much. There's too much reading and it's written to complicated, so the general public will read 2 sentences and be bored. Maybe some scientists in the field will be interested, but they probably already have their collaboration ideas and platforms.
