Do you guys think humans are meant to better or can get better? By this I mean physically, not moral-wise. I mean, there're animals that can fly, that can breathe under water, that can kill with just their teeth. Knowing of this just makes me feel like we're one of the weakest animals on Earth, the only thing giving us an edge against the others is intelligence, which seems to be diminishing with each generation. If we didnt have that, we'd be very far down the food chain than we are now.

So my question for the Base is, do you think the Human race can someday, somehow, improve our physical prowess, or have we reached our limit?

No wings don't sprout out because of the need for it, only certain adaptions by the body occur e.g. body structure in terms of bones

Shown in the difference of spines of us and early humans

We probably won't because as technology advances, we only do less and get lazier.

we were always limited...but as you said, our brain made the difference.
on our own, we are weak...but go and fight a tiger with an AK47 and see who's the superior one xd

The modern lifestyle is such that there is no evolutionary pressure or.need to improve our physical capacity.See,we spend much of our time in front of the TV,computer(NB!) and so on.It is most likely that our physical capabilities will rather decrease,due to lack of necessity,much like we are less physically capable then the earlier human species.
I would like to add,this is not our physical peak as race.Early humans and Neanderthals were much,much more physically able,as their lifestyle and environment demanded it.

made an account just to make you feel stupid, because, well, you deserve it.

first of all I'm guessing your a kid or a highly uneducated adult because our intelligence if far from 'diminishing', in fact, we are becoming more and more educated, living longer and gaining a better standard of living. This does not only apply to North America, but to the world as a whole.
Secondly, our intelligence puts us far above other species, so far that we don't need claws or fairy feathers or tails or whatever crap you're thinking of. Every animal in the kingdom fears humans, we are by far the top predators and thats all because of our brains. And if, lets say, we didn't have our brains, THEN you would see humans with sharper teeth and all that stuff because animals and humans alike evolve to adapt to their surroundings. Some scientist believe in 1000's of years the pinky toe will be gone because humans have little use for it, this will happen slowly through evolution.

Intelligence is our evolution...
Physically I say we are getting worse with more sophisticated lifestyle...
If you want humans to improve physically like animals, take away all the modern sophistication, culture, humanity and put them in jungle for 10000000 years....

the diminishing thing was a joke.

also, i dont mean we should get claws, tails, etc., etc., i just want to know if people think we can get better, faster, stronger, or has mankind seen its peak.

@bold: thats my point. if we didnt have the intelligence, we'd have no edge. lions, wolves, cougars, all would be better than us
