Human Race will ‘Split into Two Different Species’
Yang cakep makin cakep, yang ancur makin ancur…
Kayanya bukan cuma kesenjangan ekonomi duang yang perlu kita kuatirkan…

The human race will one day split into two separate species, an attractive, intelligent ruling elite and an underclass of dim-witted, ugly goblin-like creatures, according to a top scientist.
100,000 years into the future, sexual selection could mean that two distinct breeds of human will have developed.
The alarming prediction comes from evolutionary theorist Oliver Curry from the London School of Economics, who says that the human race will have reached its physical peak by the year 3000.
The report claims that after they reach their peak around the year 3000 humans will begin to regress
These humans will be between 6ft and 7ft tall and they will live up to 120 years.
“Physical features will be driven by indicators of health, youth and fertility that men and women have evolved to look for in potential mates,” says the report, which suggests that advances in cosmetic surgery and other body modifying techniques will effectively homogenise our appearance.
Men will have symmetrical facial features, deeper voices and bigger penises, according to Curry in a report commissioned for men’s satellite TV channel Bravo.
Women will all have glossy hair, smooth hairless skin, large eyes and pert breasts, according to Curry.
Racial differences will be a thing of the past as interbreeding produces a single coffee-coloured skin tone.
The future for our descendants isn’t all long life, perfect bodies and chiselled features, however.
While humans will reach their peak in 1000 years’ time, 10,000 years later our reliance on technology will have begun to dramatically change our appearance.
Medicine will weaken our immune system and we will begin to appear more child-like.
Dr Curry said: “The report suggests that the future of man will be a story of the good, the bad and the ugly.
“While science and technology have the potential to create an ideal habitat for humanity over the next millennium, there is the possibility of a monumental genetic hangover over the subsequent millennia due to an over-reliance on technology reducing our natural capacity to resist disease, or our evolved ability to get along with each other.
“After that, things could get ugly, with the possible emergence of genetic ‘haves’ and ‘have-nots’.”
Dr Curry’s theory may strike a chord with readers who have read H G Wells’ classic novel The Time Machine, in particular his descriptions of the Eloi and the Morlock races.
In the 1895 book, the human race has evolved into two distinct species, the highly intelligent and wealthy Eloi and the frightening, animalistic Morlock who are destined to work underground to keep the Eloi happy.

it does not sound very convincing to me.
Teorinya hanya bergantung pada satu aspek saja, yaitu aspek eksternal seperti produk komestik dan teknologi dalam bidang kecantikan. Namun ini mungkin bisa terjadi–sekalipun saya sangat pesimis–jika tingkat aksesibilitas teknologi yang mampu melakukan proses homogenisasi itu sendiri sangat tinggi.

Ho oh. Teorinya aneh. Mungkin bulan Desember bebek akan menuliskan pandangan bebek atas artikel ini.
Aspek eksternal yang dimaksud kayanya bukan cuma urusan kosmetik, tapi lebih ke sistem kekebalan tubuh.
Mau kasarnya ya kaya gini lah: Orang Indonesia itu sistem kekebalan tubuhnya lebih bagus daripada kebanyakan orang Singapur. Orang Indonesia ke Singapur gak akan ada masalah. Tapi orang Singapur ke Indonesia, mereka ketakutan sekali dengan makanan yang tidak higienis dll dll. Bebek sendiri, biar tiap 6 bulan balik ke Jakarta, pasti awal2 makan di Indo bisa merasakan sakit perut. T_T
Contoh lainnya: bebek pernah dibilang kalo toleransi orang Indonesia terhadap bakteri typhus jauh lebihhhhhh BESAR daripada toleransi tubuh orang bule. Orang bule, walaupun bakterinya “masih dikit”, tapi udah terkena penyakit typhus daripada orang Indonesia yang masih sehat walafiat.
Bahkan kenalan keluarga pernah cerita, katanya ada 1 orang yang mati setelah berkunjung ke Indonesia. Dokter di Belanda sana kebingungan, ini sakit apaannn? Mereka gak ngerti. Sampai orangnya dah meninggal, mereka baru ngeh kalo itu sakit typhus. (Entah bener apa kagak, katanya di Belanda gak pernah ada orang yang sakit ini lagi. Jadi dokterpun gak kepikiran untuk mendiagnosis sebagai typhus)
Gua dulu waktu masih kecil pernah berpikir kenapa orang gila tidak sakit perut padahal makan-makanan dari tong sampah?
Mungkin lantaran terbiasa sehingga tubuhnya menyesuaikan diri. Tetapi pertanyaan selanjutnya adalah, seberapa banyak ia bisa menyesuaikan diri?
Orang bule kalau pertama kali ke Indo pasti sakit. Ini juga lantaran perbedaan virus dan bakteri mungkin. Namun ada juga bule yang ‘kebal’, makan pangsit di pinggir jalan oke-oke aja.
Gua sudah dua kali sakit cacar dan bahkan sudah mendapatkan imunisasi di Indo. Eh pas di Sydney tahun lalu, gua kena lagi.
aduh bacanya ntar deh..rada berat pake inggris =,= buhebekkkkk hiks hiks lagi beteyy
lucu sih liatinnya huehehe, tapi koq gua brasa kurang ilmiah yeh?! maksudnya kaya support buat alesan2nya kurang gitu.. =3
