Sorry Typo. I merely meant intelligence I stand corrected. However my original point still stands. As we form other ways to consome different types of Vitamins or take care of our bodies in different ways with techniques that our bodies can do naturally our bodies will lose the abilities to do it naturally and we will become dependant on those products that did the same types of things for us that oru bodies did before.

Human evolution will continue to occur only in a different series of events. With the advancement of our genetic intelligence we'll be able to advance ourselves physically through our own doing but the evolution of our minds will continue to advance. I've read that our genetic makeup gives us the ability to make Vitamin C internally (As our bodies do with Vitamin K) but that ability is turned off. We have all the structures to allow it but it doesn't function. I suspect this is most likely because the change in diet we had long ago from the mostly meat eating/hunter diet to the agricultural/farming diet. I think that if we continue down the path we're on different parts of our genetics will go through the same thing. They'll be dependant on other kinds of intake (Food, drugs, etc...) to assist us in what our bodies currently do by themselves from birth. I see the future of humanity being dependant on our own tehcnology.

My thought concerning why humans and apes went their seperate ways is because of the environmental change in Africa at the time. Before the switch it is known that Africa, or parts of it, were lush with vegetation with which our ape ancestors could use for travel and to hide. The desertification started occuring and the apes of the time needed to find some other means of living. They started living more on the ground than in the trees which then freed up our hands for different tasks which led to an advancement in learning and eventually bigger brains. As well the switch from trees to land led to our bipedalism.

Have you ever actually read any of Darwin's books? I'm reading "The Voyage of the Beagle" right now and in it he sees how the natives and such are continually harrassed and he stands up for them and speaks about how unethical the differences are between people of different colours are treated. He was a naturist. He was nowhere near as racist as the majority of other people were in the early 1800's. His intense racism is another one of those internet myths much as him changing his mind about the evolution of man on his deathbed is.
