Is human evolution finally over? According to Darwin's theory, individual animals best suited to their environments live longer and have more children, and so spread their genes through populations.
No, evolution is not over, just because you don't understand something doesn't mean it ceases to exists. This article makes the same mistake that has been made with evolution since Darwin. Living longer has nothing to do with evolution, having more offspring does. The conclusion that if one lives longer one has more offspring is wrong. Men's semen gets weaker as we grow old, is riskier for women to bear child, and we get more selfish (wiser?), so we don't want to take care of kids. You want to know where human evolution is going? See which group is having more offspring (Hint: don't look in the first world).
