that's a good question and scientists have theorized for decades that we didn't evolve from monkeys but other species that became cro-magnon, neanderthal, etc

Just imagine the border between forest and grassland as similar to the border between water and land.

Every so often a creature will be adapted to move slightly further out from the forest or the water. Because it can traverse both, it will survive at higher rates. Some of its offspring will remain suited to the initial habitat, while some offspring will find security spending more time in the new habitat.

Over time, those amphibians spending more time on land, or those apes spending more time on the plains, will mate together and produce a divergent species. While the offspring that was best suited to the water or the jungle will stay there and will have remained fish and apes. A monkey is still better suited to jungle environments than a human, so it wouldnt make sense for all monkeys to evolve into humans. In jungle habitats, monkeys will be better adapted. But in terms of expanding outward, new adaptations will prevail.

The reason monkeys arent still evolving today is obvious. Humans are already proliferated in the areas surrounding natural monkey habitats. A slightly evolved monkey cant leave the jungle any longer, because it would be impossible to compete with the established humans.

Yes,

[jstern]

The vast majority of people who believe in evolution are correct, but have a severe lack of understanding of the concept. Their way of viewing it is more in a magical kind of way, when the concept relates more to pure logic. They assume humans are getting smarter just because, or stronger just because. They might think that a gorilla stopped evolving, because again, they view it in a more magical sense where things only get smarter, stronger, faster.

The name of the game is simply members of species reproducing more than others simply based on if the environment makes it easier, or less if the environment makes it harder. The fact of the matter is that skull size for the human species has been getting smaller for thousands of years. The average human today might technically be more knowledgeable that a human from thousands of years ago, but that's strictly due to better education, possibly better nutrition. Just not genetics.

As technology improves, (which has more to do with the smaller percentage of smart people building on top of technology built by those before them) as technology improves less mental ability is required to survive. In the past, many people simply died due to genetic disorders before they reached the age of being able to reproduce, that's not the case anymore, and more genetic issues gets mixed throughout all humanity. Being able to jump 6 inches higher, run 5 miles faster could be the difference with dying young or not. That's not the case anymore.

Omg, and there are sexual examples that are far more complicated and fascinating.

Now days, and like years past, you have higher IQ people carefully planning who they will have children with, and how they will provide for them. They won't start having kids until they're in their 30s. And a portion of them will die just by chance during that time. While the vast majority of people are just the opposite. Less responsible. Have multiple unplanned kids before they're 22, and that completely out paces the higher IQ ones.

So everyone is getting dumber. Whites, blacks. Yes, even middle class whites.

It's a concept that much, much more detailed that can be fit into one posts. Being dumber does not equal being less important of a person. Stupidity wins out but there should still be a similar portion of good people. Just because someone is smarter does not mean they are more special. Specially when smart people, though smarter, are still technically lacking.

I meant evolving in the direction of humanoids. Which would require them to become less arboreal and move away from the jungle. And that can no longer happen, as humans already occupy the surrounding areas, and no monkey would have an advantage trying to compete beyond the trees.

Yeah, I don't usually agree with RRR3, but serial killers could be perceived as being geniuses, but that probably has more to do with intense focus, dedication towards their particular crimes. Plus movies usually portraying the serial killers as being genius. Edmund Kemper does legit seem to have a high IQ, he might be an exception. But for people with such tendencies, the less of the ability to consider the consequences, the more likely that they're going to go for it and contribute more to that average 89 IQ. You could also say that the true genius ones have never been caught. Who knows.

Rough example but it kind of reminds me of con men. Some might perceive them as being of high IQ when in reality is that anyone can tell any one the same lies and get away it, except that the good person would never do such things to others. It's more of a character thing rather than intelligence.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Hitler was an absolute moron. A low IQ, naive kind of person, who only saw things in black and white. I don't say that because I'm passionately anti Hitler, but rather just an understanding of certain personalities and seeing the same things with Hitler.

Now as far as how such a person got into power. I once met this girl, cute girl so I decided let me give her a compliment even though I don't like her politics. I told her something like that she's "smart" because she's into things that other girls don't think about. (Though in reality, it was only because she was cute.) Omg, her life must be exhausting, the hell with taking the compliment, it's all about ideology, and how dare I say that other people might not be as intelligent. I cannot do the personality justice. But it hit me, these absolute nutty people are the the ones who are motivated enough with their whacked out views, to get into positions of leaderships.

Humans back then were just as intelligent

Human intelligence peaked in the 1800s, we're on average dumber than we were 300 years ago

uh you referenced cavemen lol... and athleticism. now you're talking 1800's.

People that play sports today are certainly more athletic than they were in the 1800s... mainly due to PEDs and access to better nutrition.

chimps are way more athletic than today's humans... thats a poor analogy to make.

the basis for our evolution is intelligence and cooperation. not beastly traits.

Meh, Goebbels for example saw him as an amazing orator, motivator of people and a great face for a party and a country, but I dont think he considered him a genius. He mostly liked his passion and vision in a way.

I'm an 80's kid so I was brought up thinking Hitler was the anti-christ. That's mostly what I know about him still.

My Polish friends think Stalin's worse. I have to research that.

Don't forget, we used to be the kings of the forest canopy.

Now we are the kings of endurance. Nothing can outrun a human being when it comes to distance. Granted, you have to have the body type for it, but still.

I’m almost certain wolves have better endurance than humans. They can move at the pace of a trot for a ridiculously long time.

ok....just looked into this:

In warm climates: Yes we beat everything.
In moderate climates: Horses are slightly better.
In cold climates: wolves are the champs.

Noteworthy is that Humans have made both of these animals useful partners. Horses would actually have gone extinct without us.

most humans dont have shit for endurance anymore though :lol cars trains and planes ended the need for that.

As usual, most people responded by denying science.

If we evolved from monkeys then why are there still monkeys and gorillas running around?

Why didn't they evolve along with us :confusedshrug:

why am I not surprised you voted no?

Although not natural selection, but breeding a golden retriever and a poodle to get a goldendoodle is evolution. A species evolved... in this case non-naturally, but it produced an offspring with a different genetic composition/ epigenetic makeup than the previous generation. There are also chimeras that we see every day...

This is seen with viruses in a way, although its not alive, because it replicates so quickly due to a primer that's highly active for replication, it's susceptible for transcription/translation mistakes that cause it to 'evolve' into stronger or weaker versions of itself. Obviously there's no natural selection or anything since its not alive- but the genetic change which is involuntary in some cases is observable there.

I wonder how Moses was able to part the oceans.... magic? luck? was it a case of journalistic exaggeration?
