Op-Ed: Humans evolving into bigger idiots? Stanford professor thinks so

digitaljournal via Free Republic
Alternet.org reports:
...Crabtree argues that “human intelligence may have actually peaked before our ancient predecessors ever left Africa...Genetic mutations during the past several millennia are causing a decline in overall human intellectual and emotional fitness...Evolutionary pressure no longer favors intellect, so the problem is getting exponentially worse.”

The Idiocracy has arrived 500 years earlier than expected.

Things really do seem to be doing downhill.
