[QUOTE="Janx, post: 6221595, member: 8835"] Indeed. Which is where there may be some flawed thinking in the primitive diet trend going on right now. Eating stuff cavemen ate may not be compatible with our guts because we don't have caveman guts anymore. Though there are some indicators that some of that diet is pretty healthy compared to eating processed crap all day. The getting taller isn't necessarily evolution, so much as diet. The Japanese are getting taller because they are eating more beef. Revert the next generation's diet and you'll likely get short Japanese people again. I'm not actually against evolution. Evolution is just the natural version of selective breeding to get Basset Hounds from wild wolves. One possible outcome of evolution on humans is further compatibility with technology. If we started embedding tech in out bodies to be cyborgs, and some % of the population had allergic/medical reactions that drove them out of the gene pool, then we would evolve toward a population that responds favorably to such implants.
