Do you think that humans will ever evolve to the point where we'll have wings (feathery or otherwise)?
Vote and post your thoughts.
Personally, I don't think it'd ever happen, but it'd be hella cool. Maybe the shoulder blade has much more potential than we think...

I'm in the 3rd option, because I really don't think we'd evolve that further but I think it'd be the coolest thing ever!
I heard from somewhere I can recall that we'd evolve brains till our head would be to big and we wouldn't be able to walk, and all out other body parts would become pure skin and bones.
One word: YUCK!
I hate that future!

What with our ability to talk, walk upright, and our opposible thumbs. I think man has reached the evolutionary peak of near perfection. But it would still rock.

It's not a matter of being near perfection, it's that the gene pool is now too large and too diverse for any mutation to be selected in favor of unless for some reason it aided all of humanity rather than a local population.

Hell, I often imagine myself with wings. It's only in my physical body that I don't have them.

If we need them we may get them. It's like thumbs, we needed them somehow so we got them.
