[__ Science __ ] Evolution Made Really Smart People Long to Be Loners

Research finds highly intelligent individuals prefer to socialize less than the rest of us.​


That then is a problem for evolution in as yec say
Don't see how. I would think that it would be beneficial to have highly intelligent people more focused on their work.

it is a downward trend not an upward trend..
"Downward" and "upward" have no meaning in terms of evolution. Only fitness matters.

Not a gaining in complexity but a gaining in simplicity.
Human bodies, for example, are in many ways, simplified relative to bodies of reptiles. Jaws, cervical ribs, tails, etc. Do you think humans are downward relative to reptiles?

There is no "devolution"; that's a creationist superstition. We evolved when things like jaws became simplified. Sometimes evolution makes things more complex. Sometimes, it simplifies. But it's all a change in allele frequencies. Which is what evolution is.
 
"Downward" and "upward" have no meaning in terms of evolution.
Yep. That's why this is Devolution rather than evolution. Increase in simplicity - not complexity.

Do you believe evolution is how God creates? Then "upward" certainly would have meaning.

source?

creationist superstition
Lotion superstition.

If there was Evo, there should be Devo too. If not why not?
