If evolution exists why haven't we observed any changes in humans?

We're getting older and taller.

because evolution takes literally thousands of years before you even see the changes it brings about. don't expect any x-men tomorrow. take a biology class

> If evolution exists why haven't we observed any changes in humans?

we have.

>why haven't we observed any changes in humans
Have you seen a non-African homo sapiens sapiens? They're lightyears ahead.

They barely are. With the exception of humans, the great apes are all endangered.

Another way humans are evolving is the olfactory receptor genes are some of the fastest changing loci. This is likely due to sexual selection, as odor plays a large part in mate selection.

More importantly, who was the first chimp to poof into a person from a thoughtless animal?
Or did a chimp squirt out a person and raise the child rather than discarding it as sick and diseased abomination?

if DNA is real then why do my parents still exist?

I've met people born without an appendix tho

are you retarded
nothing "poofed"
nothing is a "thoughtless" animal except really simplistic structures maybe

it's simply very minute changes over long periods of time, with different cultures and knowledge developing with it.

>Borg-ing ourselves(mechanical transhumanism) and playing Tetris with genes (genetic engineering) still have a long way to go as well as problems and risks

Already we are growing human organs in pigs, are making glowing trees to replace street lamps, and have the most basic cybernetic arms.

Transhumanism will become a reality sooner than you think.

People are becoming more attractive. Well, smart ones at least.

Hijacking thread to ask about why do some humans still have monkey jaws, mostly in darker skinned people?

You know, there faces are not flat, but rather their mouths protrude out.

...

Because evolution requires pressure so that the best genes survive. Humans have conquered nature, so they don't have to worry about predators and thus don't need a bigger brain or claws.
The only pressures are economic and social, that is, beggar schizos that die on winter and ugly asocial people that don't reproduce.
Also, evolution is not the same as adaptability. A kid that was practically born with a smartphone in his hand is better at technology than your grandpa, but his genes are the same. Humanity won't grow a sixth finger or have aspergers or mutated eyes "because it's better", but because the gene is dominant, radiation/polution or because those without those traits die (why would a five fingered human die and a six fingered one not? Today, both have the same opportunities to survive and reproduce).
Getting Veeky Forums won't change your genes and won't make your babies buff, having genes that increase muscle power and finding a compatible mate does.
If we believe /pol/, race mixing whites with blacks will make the general human darker and maybe stronger/more agile, but adn interactions make that shit unpredictable.
But I'm just a neet loser, so feel free to fuck my post in the ass.

If plate tectonics exist, why haven't weobserved any changes on the map?

Didn't find the thread but i guess it's ok
Thanks again user

And kek

I don't think anyone in this thread claimed that

Exercise causes small changes in epigenetics short term an there's compelling evidence that over the long term these repeated changes become more stable
>Evidence of such transient epigenetic changes is exciting, said Ling, but the changes didn’t last long: within a few more hours of the initial increases in gene expression, the muscle methylation and expression levels returned to baseline. This begs the question of whether the effects will eventually stabilize with regular exercise, she said. “If you exercise a lot and you make these epigenetic changes, you wouldn’t just change your [short-term] expression, but [in the] long-term, change your genome. And maybe you will be more protected from diabetes due to epigenetic change.”

These points about Lamark, epigenetics and evolution especially provide evidence for epigenetical long term changes;

Not really what I claimed either but exercise will. and getting/staying Veeky Forums certainly does favors healthwise for whatever children you have.

HOMINIDS ARE NOT THE SAME AS PRIMATES WE JUST SHARE A COMMON GENETIC HERITAGE!!! AAAAAAAH

Underrated

You don't have to believe /pol/ to believe race mixing gives adavanages

>Transhumanism will become a reality sooner than you think.
D-delete this

Are blacks actually dumber on average? Is /pol/ actually right for once?

...

Because evolution doesn't exist/never happened.
