Human race will 'split into two different species'

Human race will 'split into two different species'

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.

IMO it's already happened. Conservatives and the ratz.

The picture begs to be photoshopped but I can't do it at work.

Another more detailed article here from the BBC.

This guy sure is a brain trust. Like you said, it’s not a prediction, it’s a confirmation at this point.

So the democrat underclass is already being taught .... But those are the ones being aborted in large numbers = fewer people, but more are having illegitimate babies = more underclass ???

Except that the NE liberal “overclass” is also being taught they rule the great unwashed masses out of the Ivy League ivory towers .. of Babel. And the ruling Ivy Leaguers (and CA crat’s) are also not having kids.

So I guess that the only ones who still have some sense are in the middle. In the red states?

Liberals believe they're smart and every one else is stupid.

There are some I think who would like nothing better than to see this split. A regression back in time when the rulers ruled over dimwitted slaves. This report is frightening.

Yes, the Democrats will evolve into a beautiful race, who will inhabit Earthly gardens of Eden. Conservatives, on the other hand, will be ugly, live underground, tending to the machinery, and providing for the Democrats every need. Democrats will do no work, because, the Conservatives will do all of the hard work, and provide everything in this society.

While this sounds good for the Democrats, there is one bright side for Conservatives. Every once in a while, we will come up from our underground caves and eat the Democrats.

This is the reason why they teach evolution. To get people ready to accept the evolution to this regression.

H.G. Wells had a similar idea in "The Time Machine", only reversed. The Goblins (Morlocks) ruled the attractive intelligent class.....actually, they ate them.

"Physically, they would start to appear more juvenile. Chins would recede, as a result of having to chew less on processed food."

This seems to show a misunderstanding of the theories of natural selection, and evolution. The "chin recession" can only happen if the large-chinned humans are at a disadvantage, i.e., being denied the privileges of reproduction, or are killed by something in connection with those normal-to-large chins.

I got news for this genius, 100,000 years from now King Jesus will still be on His eternal throne, the Devil and those who followed him will still be burning in a Lake of Fire, and everyone will be snickering IF they still remember the absurd ramblings of Oliver Curry.

Jesus is coming soon.

Last time He was the Saviour, this time He's the Judge.

Here come de Judge.

"Women, on the other hand, will develop lighter, smooth, hairless skin, large clear eyes, pert breasts, glossy hair, and even features, he adds. Racial differences will be ironed out by interbreeding, producing a uniform race of coffee-coloured people."

In a thousand years (probably more like a hundred) parents will be able to design every physical and mental feature of their children at the geneticist’s office. Who’s going to pick short, fat, ugly, stupid, goblin-like?

The original author is out of touch. Biology—evolution—is no longer the method by which any, even minor, changes will occur in humans.

In fact, the world will change uncalculably within 50 years, or as soon as someone creates a human equivalent AI.

If we get it first, great...but sometimes I wonder. People don’t seem to understand that this is as important an advantage as nuclear weapons were on WWII, and it is the only weapon capable of defeating our arsenal (without us ever knowing it, by disabling it).

If we’re lucky, the Japanese or some European country will create it if we aren’t able to. If the Chinese do, then any attempt to defeat them economically or otherwise will be impossible. And in the event of a conflict, they’ll simply disable our infrastrture from the inside out.

After AIs able to engineer themselves come into existence, the future is unpredictable, but surely, biology is at the very end of its stages—think about how long it took for automobiles to replace horses.

The most important point being this: whatever group or country gets AI first, wins by getting a lead that will grow exponentially. It’ll be like chasing a jet with a donkey.

In 1000 years...gees...humans will have transformed into something else that will have been engineered from start to finish.
