Evolution is Stupid!

Evolution is Stupid! Rather an arrogant claim by minuscule mortal against almighty evolution. I am not saying its silly, it is incredibly sophisticated and powerful. But it is Stupid.

Evolution doesnt have a vision. It doesnt work with end in mind. It is a slave of the Process. It works like a child assembling pieces of puzzle, picking up all pieces which it can get its hands on and putting them together. If it fits, it sticks, if it doesnt, it falls off the puzzle. The child hopes that whatever fits forms a magnificent structure. And in most cases it does. Thats the beauty, but that beauty can be a snake that bites the child. In this context humans are snake and evolution is the child!

Humans or homo sapiens are a uniqueness that evolution has created. A creature whose intelligence is Tera, while a ducks intelligence is quack quack! which brings up the question, why is intelligence so rare! why doesnt evolution favor intelligence? millions of creatures, and only 1 evolved to be considered intelligent (although i have seen people who are serious contenders with ducks!). There is a gigantic difference b/n human intelligence and the next closest in the living kingdom. It is as if Evolution knew that any intelligence can meddle with the holy grail of evolution, The Process, and can essentially kill evolution!

That just is what is happening. The Process follows a simple rule, survival of the fittest. The rule has 2 attributes, which according to evolution is the purpose of life & of existence. Eating and Fucking, i mean survival and reproduction. Infact we can say reproduction is the only purpose, as survival is a necessity for reproduction. Female spider rips off and eats male head after mating. In most insect species males die soon after fertilizing the female. alas, there is no need to survive, as survival is not the purpose of life, reproduction is, that is all evolution cares about. It is as if evolution is doing a lengthy experiment and every generation produced by reproduction is a step forward.

After 3.5 billion years of this puzzle game, evolution gave rise to Intelligence. Intelligence which can understand and control 'The Process'. The rule of survival of fittest breaks down. The new rule is survival of the richest! People dont die when they were supposed to die. Advancement in technology & medical care keeps and nurtures the weak, who for evolution were a disease and their discardal is a necessity as per the rule. Reproduction is not happening between fitter and select few humans as evolution wanted. every loser is fucking (with the evolution!), causing evolution to slow down. Its experiments are coming to a standstill. Intelligence which evolution created turned out to be a trap for itself!

Life extension is no longer a fiction. This science will become a reality in not so distant future. Professor Aubrey de Grey is one of the researchers on the subject and claims he has drawn a roadmap to defeat biological aging. His idea is simple. If you keep replacing the worn out parts of you Cadillac, the car will practically remain new and function forever. Same with the human body.

This can be a problem for evolution if same people live very long. There is limited resource on earth and to cope with that the people who live long reproduce less. Also, same survivors reproduce again and again, severly limiting the variables in evolutions experiment. The experiment stalls and same step repeats, at very slow rate.

Booya.. you did not see that coming, did you evolution? and that is why, evolution is Stupid! Lol.. Maybe not.. there is a new wave of evolution, EvolutionNext, that is debunking all the limitations evolution had. Evolution always focused on individiuals within a species. Humans developed a brain, and it got bigger over generations. whats next in human evolution? will still bigger brain help? apparently it wont! a recent study showed that intelligence maxes out at the brain size not too biger than that of humans. any increase in brain size after that and intelligence dips. Apparently bigger brains will not be fast & efficient enough to transmit neural signals between different parts, and yet act as one coherent creature.

EvolutionNext took the giant step and its focus is not on a individual human, but its treating entire humanity as an organism. Collectively humans are acting as one organism creating

complexities and wonders which traditional evolution could never have achieved. EvolutionNext is using evolutions recipe, the fractal approach, to have simplicity repeated numerous times to create astonishing complexity. The act of 1 phone call between 2 cell phones, is an example where collective intelligence and actions of thousands of individuals lead to something extra ordinary. No single human could create this. This is humanity acting as an organism. There are innumerable examples around - Economy, Stock Market, Scientific advancement and even the internet and computer you are reading on, are all creation of collective intelligence, the fractal recipe of EvolutionNext.

Its been 3.5 years since evolutions experiment started and earth has about 3.5 billion years more of habitable life left. we are right in the middle part of earths life cycle and evolutions experiment. maybe now is the new phase when humanity evolves to move out into other planets as earth dies out.

So, it turns out i was wrong.. evolution is not stupid! Infact it is so clever that it evolved itself into EvolutionNext!!

PS: fractals - complex formations out of repetition of simple structures. eg: lightning, branching of a tree, formations on brocolli, branching of river flow
