Let's not forget that Evolution is a Scientific Theory and not a Scientific Law, just as is Intelligent Design, and Dogma- which is not the same as Intelligent Design Theory as it does not ascribe consciousness to the source of the design, merely an Intelligencia. As to Evolution, there is no proof. There are conclusions based upon similarities in fossil structures, but not actual physical fossils showing the cyclic transition from one form into another, as if POOF here's the next stage and POOF here's the next. As to the fossils of Man. Lucy was found to be a hoax, as was the neanderthal man, oh and then there's the one speculated into being from a single tooth, from which they envisioned and brought into being his wife- how creative, how unscientific. The rapid brain growth "theory" comes from the fossil which was found to be a fraudulent mix of chimp and human fossil. Oh, and what about the monkey's found in the cave with the primitive tools as proof apes were starting to evolve? They failed to highlight that the monkey bones were smashed near a primitive firepit, and that the bodies of primitive humans were found in the cave as well.
Don't stifle serious research by limiting the scope. Even Einsteins Theory of Relativity was just that, a theory. Einstein himself wrote that E=mc2 only works in a field, that he neither knew nor was interested in it's applications in a vacuum, but that theoretically, he calculates that it could not. Hell, look at residual energy as potential proof of that. Further, even Einstein prefaced his work by stating that all his works through the course of his lifetime had led him to the inescapable conclusion that the Universe must have been laid out by some sort of Intelligence. It merits investigation. EVOLUTION IS ONLY A THEORY!

"Now I didn't know we have no shared DNA traits with Neanderthals"
Neanderthal man was a manipulated primate, of course we share no traits, but I bet apes do.

Continuing on to reply about the other guys comment on NO shared traits? Somehow I find that a bit hard to just swallow, could I get a link to prove that? Returning on the Evolution thing, I actually support its idea, just not the idea that Humans are part of the evolution string. Then again I guess you make a good point on part of evolution's theory being faulty in areas, but do you entertain evolution to some degree? If I was to follow and disagree with evolution, it would effectivley kill my theory 0.o.

I'm just going to answer the question posed in the thread name: No, clearly not.

ffs, look around you. No intelligent life here.

Still can't get over the sight in the mirror, aye?
Or we jolly well hope so.
An alien has been advancing humans, it's name is god almighty, but from what i hear its been liking pulling a mule uphill.

We[humans of our species but a race from our past NOT our future] are implanting ourselves in order to allow more of us to utilise our true intellectual potential , our true capacity to absorb tremendous amounts of information.This is being done in order to "make extinct"the urges to committ crimes against each other and the earth.It is being done to ensure there is an adequate "information base" encoded into human brains --TO ensure that humanity has a better chance of retaining important theories and ideas in the event of a global cataclism.We cant get rid of the criminal element within humanity by "not allowing criminals to reproduce"because we all have the potential to be criminal.We have to FORCE people to OUTLEARN AS IN OUTGROW criminal tendencies.So we are genetically "jumpstarting"peoples brains ,if it wasnt done through implants we would never grow out of our violence DUE TO OUR SHORT LIFESPAN.We all learn the same lessons and become true humanitarians WHEN WE ARE SO OLD WE PEE OUR PANTS,I apologise for the extreme example but it was necessary.Someone posted the accurate explanation earlier in the thread,WE ARE LOCKED IN OUR BRAINS and some of us randomly become unlocked at very young ages with the HELP OF NASAL IMPLANTS.The rest of us become unlocked when we are so old we dont really have the capacity to use our NEWFOUND humanitarian perspective to change the world because we cant even change our own diapers.I again apologise for forcing you to remember this post by using graphic imaging.Why do you think there are doctors and lawyers all over the place who work for a living?THINK ABOUT IT.WHY ARENT THEY ALL MILLIONAIRES?You can understand the complete physiology of the human body or understand literally volumes of legal information BUT YOU CANT SEEM TO WRAP YOUR HARVARD EDUCATED MIND AROUND THE CONCEPT OF COMPOUND INTEREST.You are locked in your brain and you dont even know it because your freedom of thought has been directed since your conception,you were born with a combonation lock in your brain and never figured out how to pick that lock.NOW YOU KNOW HOW TO PICK THE LOCK.Support people like myself and others on sites like this who are trying to open your eyes,dont believe that you are smarter than others because of the illusion of intellectualism that has been cast upon you by a monetery based system of values and beliefs.KEEP LEARNING BEYOND YOUR CURRENT LEVEL WHATEVER IT MAY BE.Force your brain to face the reality that exists outside of your BUBBLE OF EXISTANCE THAT IS YOUR LIFE TODAY.The more you learn the more you will be forced to abandon your current attitudes and beliefs,DONT BE AFRAID OF KNOWLEDGE AND THE CHANGES THAT INFORMATION WILL BRING WITH IT.Embrace your future and humanities future for they are one in the same make it your life mission to spread extreme education to the entire human race because you ARE TRULY ONLY AS SMART AS THE MAN IN AFRICA-- SO IF HE DIES WITHOUT EVER KNOWING HIS WORLD AS YOU DO --YOU ALSO DIE LESS OF A HUMAN BEING THAN YOU ARE BEING LED TO BELIEVE YOU ARE.The internet allows us to do this,dropping ten million solar powered laptops into the african continent would effect change faster than anything else in human history.Goodbye crooked governments,goodbye crooked religon,goodbye evil humans,goodbye CONTROL OF HUMANITIES COURSE OR PATH .Hello one global government,hello one true religon,hello peaceful world,hello a humanitarian future that is decided upon BY EVERY HUMAN BEING ON EARTH BAR NONE,A TRUE GLOBAL DEMOCRACY IN ITS PUREST FORM.Global education at a pace that is unheard of in human history is needed NOW AND I MEAN RIGHT NOW so jump on board get over your ego trip about your supposed intellect and use those degrees for a humanitarian cause instead of a self-serving cause.WE NEED YOU AND THAT IS WHY YOU ARE MORE EDUCATED THAN MOST.Give a man a fish and feed him for a day,TEACH a man to fish and feed him for life,TEACH A MAN TO TEACH A MAN TO FISH AND YOU FEED THE WORLD.

What on Earth makes you claim that Humans are intelligent? Are you not paying attention to the world? The world is in CHAOS and those smart humans are making and selling weapons to the combatants for a profit...

I think the notion that mankind is intelligent is a notion that is clearly not proven by the facts...

Sorry OP nothing personal, but I can not look a the world and how humans treat each other, the planet and animals and think we are intelligent by any stretch of the imagination. I would think if there is aliens out there watching us, they should be afraid be VERY AFRAID cause when we get to space like that we will weaponize and militarize it too...

Actually OP I wish some aliens would come and breed some damn intelligence into us for a change, hows that for an answer? LOL

"Have aliens genetically engineered humans to become more intelligent?
"

Welcome poster I know where you’re coming from with your question but I think that id there really had been any 'altering' is not to make us smarter but more likely more subservient and stupid. On my side I have the current state of the world with everyone of us being controlled by a few rich-power hungry thugs and cannon fodder falling over themselves to serve these elite types fight their contrived wars and contribute to their economic empires. Don't sound very smart to me?

ABSOLUTELY NOT. If we are left to our own devices we will evolve much further than we have so far.The problem is that we cant keep enough of our species and its technology intact through the earths natural environmental changes to get the hell off the earth itself between cycles.

This is our universal entrance exam and no one is going to help us pass,and yes the exam is timed we only have until the end of this cycle,problem is we dont know exactly when we need to duck.

Aliens dont exist but other undiscovered RACES OF HUMANS CERTAINLY DO.These cousins of our have been trying to BOOST OUR LEARNING CURVE through implanting humans over a long period of time.These implants allow us to learn more and faster than normal,they dont make us any smarter than we were born to be and we dont get superpowers.
People have been helping us skip grades in the school of life.Not aliens.

I'm a skeptical person, and I ask a lot of questions. I don't take anything at face value.

Now, I think there may be something to this. Humans are the only animals on the planet that seem out of place. The only animals that can't seem to live in harmony with nature - that can't synchronize with the rest of the planet.

It has been shown that our cranial capacity has tripled in an abnormally short time frame - with no explanation. Perhaps someone gave us a boost. That boost - could explain why we are so out of touch with the rest of nature.


Were we genetically engineered? I doubt it. Especially since we share so much of our DNA with other apes and with chickens. As far as DNA goes - no red flags there - it's the same DNA as other animals. But if DNA could be modified, tweaked - it would be difficult to backtrack such reverse engineering.

Although I do not believe that we were genetically "engineered', I believe it is possible that we were genetically modified in such a way as to allow us to become "intelligent" beings. The problem with that is, if that process did not occur naturally when it was supposed to happen, we may not only be out of sync with the rest of the planet because of it - but we may be missing critical components that we would have acquired if our intelligence was allowed to develop naturally - perhaps over several hundred million years.


If we did in fact get head start from an alien race - that's not good. That makes us an experiment.

But anyway, to get back on track of the original post. It's a good possibility that there has have been gentic enhancements to the human race. What the exact purpose could we, we can only guess. Maybe we are just an experiment.


The precise answer to your questions about this was given to me in 1968 and is the first part of my ever-present signature line. Think about it.

Where we are going, in my limited view, is best spelled out for us lower humans in Arthur C. Clarkes classic novel from about 1954, "Childhood's End." It is a beautiful story of the eventual evolutioin of the human spirit via the children.
