There's just so much of it, I don't know where to start, or if I should even bother.
I have only read the newspaper article. Taking that as my target:
The guy has just ripped off HG Wells, thats all.
To be making predictions about the future is well enough, but this guy seems to have completely omitted any consideration of us being bitten on the arse by the environment we have thoroughly trashed. How beautiful are the Eloi going to be with birth defects from all the pollution? and are we going to fall into his predicted comfort zone when we are too busy fighting over the remaining scraps?
He presumes there will be beautiful people and ugly people and never the twain shall bonk. Rubbish. There is and will be a continual spectrum from hotties to uglies, and although the extreme cases will rarely bonk, there will be enough bonking-up and -down to keep the gene pool mixed.
he also predicts that the human race will
first become genetically homogenized. No, say I. Individuals will still - at least fairly often - choose partners similar to themselves. Geographic location will not be completely overcome. And often the mix of genes a child inherits will deliver unusual results. These factors will contribute to keeping a wide range of diversity in the spectrum of our species.
Meh, I'm not spending more time on this junk.
