Re: Read Me!
Based on evolutionary theory what is the future of humans. To be a valid scientific theory one should be able to use that theory to predict the future with a reasonable degree of accuracy. I like evolutionary theory, in a general sense, but in its current form it is useless for predicting the future other than saying things will evolve. It works only after the fact.
An analogy to existing evolutionary theory is a theory of gravity that can only correlate what we have observed but can't predict new events. If someone is going to throw the ball differently, the theory is stumped, until after the fact. Picture sending a rocket into orbit with this level of theoretical sophistication. We would all cross our fingers and randomly shoot rockets off until one works. Then the theory would step in and explain this success with all this brimming confidence. But next time, we will again need to cross our fingers.
