Human species split into two already?
The BBC today reports that the 'human species may split into two in 100 000 years time'.
Ummm, I think Oliver may be lagging behind the pace a bit here. I mean, 100 000 years time? Come on!! We’ve got plenty dim-witted, ugly, squat goblin-like creatures runnin’ round right now.
Evolutionary theorist Oliver Curry of the London School of Economics expects a genetic upper class and a dim-witted underclass to emerge.
People would become choosier about their sexual partners, causing humanity to divide into sub-species, he added.
The descendants of the genetic upper class would be tall, slim, healthy, attractive, intelligent, and creative and a far cry from the "underclass" humans who would have evolved into dim-witted, ugly, squat goblin-like creatures.

They do have a habit of presiding over the fate of entire countries though. Kinda don’t make sense really. I’d say that there theory needs some refinin’.
