Olympic 100 metres

[Kev]

Love the Olympics - fuck darwin this is evolution at it's best baby.

All those god luvin son's a bitches who think evolution is a crock need to look at the way records in track and field are broken over and over. And i'm not talking about the evolution of drugs (they are a godsend too) but the legit records getting beat over and over through time.

What do records being broken have to do with evolution? It's not progress, human arn't evolving better physically it's just a combination of better diet and training methods plus the factor of time.

Look at this way, even if there was no improvements whatsoever to the human body over time records would improve anyway.

Consider dice rolling. No way to evolve better rolls of a dice but if you roll dice for a 100 years trying to get the most consecutive 6's in a row, I can pretty much guarantee the longer you keep doing it the more the consecutive records will increase.

Besides the Olympics represents 0.0000000000000000000001% of the population.

Why not take a look at the other 99.99999999999999999999% in America and the rest of the Western World and tell me if they are in better shape than their ancestors 100 years ago

Agreed. Sports, amongst other things, define how far man has come and the evo of man to be greater and greater. Of course 90% of the dumbells who win medals thank God 1st for their victories instead of themselves and the people before them that set the standards that drove those people to be better. Records are meant to be broken; not just equaled.

Of course, God might set a new record when he place kicks me for being a non-believer

Of course it is evolution, the human body can only take so much training, take boxing, they say the optune amount is 3 months of hard core training, u do to much you will fuck your self up.

Yes there are better ideas and such from 100 years ago, but science and diets haven't greatly changed for top flight athlets in a while, records continue to be broken and will do so for 100s of years to come, not because of diets, or training tips, because of evolution baby

You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. The modern scientific view is that humans far from developing better physicality are 'devolving' due to our less stressful, more sedentary lives.

As we no longer have to hunt for our food and cover great distances each day, as we now live in cities full of pollutants and toxins, as we live increasingly sedentary lives our evolutionary scientists believe we are deteriotating physically not improving.

You clearly have no idea of how evolution works. If you go and look at scientific papers and thesis describing how humans will look in the future we are heading in the opposite direction because we no longer need to be so physcially active to live our lifestyles.

When we can get our dinner off a super market shelf and our water from a tap 5 meters from our lounge why on earth would our bodies evolve and adapt to become physically more able?

The eact opposite effect is occuring, and that's ACCORDING TO SCIENCE!!!

dude science goes back on it's self all the time - you say we are deteriotating? how? what proof is there of that? the average hight still increases, physical records keep getting broken, sure there are new things out there to kill us, mainly coz we let to many 3rd worlders in our countries to spread the shit.

and fuck man i work a full time job lol i don't got time to be fannying about looking up papers on every topic i wanna talk about when im bored and out of vodka, come on buddy

The average height is only increasing in the Western World and in the last couple hundred years as a direct result of diet Preme. Evolution supposedly occurs over tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years there is simply no way for evolution to evolve better people in just a couple hundred years, I repeat better Olympic performance has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with evolution and any scientist would agree with me, God has nothing to do with it, it's just evolution doesn't work that way.

Furthermore evolution doesn't mean that things improve and get better, it means that organisms adapt and change in response to enviromental factors so that the organism is best suited to its enviroment.

The best and fittest humans lived thousands of years ago. Neanderthal man was more muscular, had bigger brains ( bigger cranial capacity), better coordination and were physcially stronger than us. They needed to be because they lived in a very harsh enviroment.

In todays world each race is suited to their enviroment. Blacks are more muscular, have less bodyfat and more more stamina endurance than whites to cope with the harsher living conditions in Africa. These changes took thousands of years however which is why African Americans are still black after a few generations living in the US and why white generations of people stay white in South Africa for example, these changes take a long time.

In the Western world we are not evolving better physical bodies as we simply do not need them. Why in the world would an organism evolve and adapt in a way in which was completely opposite to the needs of its enviroment?

If there was a holocaust and man once again had to brave harsh enviroments, make long journeys for food, shelter and safety and lived in a physically harsh enviroment then humans would adapt accordingly. Whilst we live in an enviroment of plenty, where there are no predators, no physical demands upon our bodies like in times past then we simply will not evolve better and more physically stronger bodies.

Well I don't have to work and reading about science is a hobby. I'm a well educated man I can't help it if I'm cleverer than you

can there be 'devolving' ? because it would still be the next step in the evolution line so it would have to be evolving just into a lesser being or something like that.

Yes you are correct I was merely using the term to explain that evolution doesn't mean getting bigger and stronger, it means adapting to fit your enviroment, and this can actually mean getting smaller and weaker if necessary.

Size, strength, etc are not examples of progression, and we are certainly not evolving to be physically stronger and better, that's simply not happening.

Firstly according to the evolutionary timescale such changes would take tens of thousands of years and secondly we would be evolving in response to our enviroment and our enviroment,especially in the West hardly requires us to be any fitter and stronger than in times past, in fact it's the complete opposite.

I havent followed track and field in years. I used to watch a lot sport but there is no coverage in my part of the world. Instead I get mens volleyball and table tennis.

Im glad the Olympics are going to be on at a decent time so I can actually try and watch some of the events live. I didnt watch a single game of the European Chamionships. Time difference was just too much.

I think 'devolving' could probably be when like, a deer's antlers grow big to attract femals,,, but then the females keep rooting all the deers with the biggest antlers, and eventually the antlers grow to big for the deer to reach the ground to eat, and dies, so that would be bad.... mabe then after a long time they would have to go backwards and the women would find smaller antlers sexier... but then, that would be evolving still....

pretend i didn't start talking

Bilbo you for certain know what your talking about my friend have some rep, i learnt alot from just reading your posts there.

[HattonTheHammer]

The olympics is completely flawed if you ask me

you can train all your life, be the strongest physical athlete in modern sport and win a gold medal you worked all your life towards.

On the other hand you can have a decent shot or be a good angler and win 5 individual golds in different classes and categorys
