What is your favorite animal?

My favorite animal is Homo sapienshumans. What fascinates me most about humanity is its paradoxical nature. Unlike many species, we seem to have reached a point where we’re not evolving in the traditional sense. In fact, one could argue that we’re regressing, step by step, decade by decade. Let’s take a closer look. Way back in the time of the pharaohs, humans created the pyramidsastonishing architectural marvels whose construction still baffles modern engineers despite our advanced tools and technology. Over the centuries, various civilizations left us magnificent monuments, rich in artistry and cultural significance. Yet today, we mostly erect uninspired concrete structures, often lacking aesthetic appeal. Worse, we destroy historical landmarks, motivated by personal religious or political agendas. In the 1960s, we achieved the incredible feat of landing on the moon, a milestone that symbolized boundless human ambition. Fast forward to today, and we face challenges in safely bringing astronauts… What is your favorite animal?

Some serious rethinking

The topic on which I am doing some serious rethinking is whether evolution, as we understand it, has come to a halt. Let me explain with an example. Consider the moon landings. According to official records, in 1969 the United States successfully landed on the moon. Over the next few years, multiple successful missions followed, all by the US, and thensilence.  What’s puzzling is this: despite the intense space race between the US and the Soviet Union, the USSR never attempted to replicate the moon landings.  Fast forward 50 years, with all the advances in science and technology, and we’re still struggling to get boots on the lunar ground. By now, shouldn’t we have built thriving lunar colonies? So, what’s going on? Is there something more to the story, or have we become less capable over time? Could evolution be reversing, at least intellectually? Given how much time we spend… Some serious rethinking
