This is an entirely moot premise.<p>Human evolution is no longer in the hands of nature in the sense that people most commonly think of it. It will never be again.<p>We&#x27;ve taken over direct control of our evolution. That&#x27;s not an exaggeration, it&#x27;s a fact of our present circumstances. These are the early days, yes, but non-the-less. The time scale of meaningful human evolution is about to shift from tens of thousands of years, to decades.<p>In that time we&#x27;ll start altering the general human genome, and likely remove countless inherited conditions out of it either directly or indirectly. The technology will accelerate at an incredible pace from here, becoming very common; leading edge CRISPR knowledge and capabilities today will be laughable in 30 years.<p>Our evolution has done anything but been derailed, it&#x27;s about to leap forward.<p>Who here really thinks humans ~500 years from now, will have much in common with humans of today? I don&#x27;t think what exists at that point will be reasonably considered human at all, as we know the term. Nothing can really stop that outcome except an extinction event. The only question is what we become, not whether we change; and taking over control of our evolution is part of that.
