[quote="Jin-Roh":5c3ce]Could it ever be possible that evolution could work against us? We became less superior rather than become more superior or just die off suddenly.

I think it is. ed:[/quote:5c3ce]
I dont think I get you...We didnt become "less superior"...We just provide help to the unfit, its preventing survival of the fittest, and allowing all to survive. With science and technology progressing, it makes it easier to survive.

Evolution cant work "against" us. Evolution is natural selection. Natural selection can be negative towards an individual, but never a population. And evolution refers to a population, never an individual.

Hah.
