And if we stay on earth for another 1 to 3 million years, then I'd expect to see some major biological changes. And knowing humans, these biological changes WILL be directed/influenced by the human mind (known as "intelligent design," I suppose) via human genetic engineering. What we can do will be influenced by our ethics (known as memes). This brings up an interesting idea of memes being a major evolutionary mechanism upon genes, whereas memes arose from genes.

believes that humans will not evolve into something else.
