A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion - Francis Bacon
You see what I mean? Already we're starting to talk about religion and philosophy and... well, for Christ's sake (lolirony?) we're quoting Francis Bacon! Back to the theory, or I'll have all your heads!
The theory? ok, well...I can't say I understand it to be honest. Firstly, how do you accelerate evolution? Isn't that a contradiction of the term, in that evolution is the continual response of an organism to it's changing ecological niche, rather than an organism filling out a pre-destined development into something 'superior' or 'more sentient'.
In this way evolution cannot be accelerated or in any way manipulated. It is what is.
To say that you can accelerate an organism's evolution, really, would mean you looked into the future to see some future circumstances in which it will exist, and then modify it's current environment to bring that change you saw in the future on sooner. And that sounds equally as silly.
.
It can, all you need is to find the right conditions to accelerate it, and to make it accelerate the way you want it to. This wuld mean a lot of trial an error but luck is in this equation, maybe they found these conditions through luck or mass tests?
