Humans may have lost abilities that our ancestors had
If our ancestors had the ability to regenerate teeth and limbs and now we can't; would this be evolution? Or is it devolution?
From ScienceDaily:
Limb or organ regrowth may be hidden in our genes
From ScienceDaily:
Genetic elements that drive regeneration uncovered
Limb or organ regrowth may be hidden in our genes
"If you trace our evolutionary tree way back to its roots -- long before
the shedding of gills or the development of opposable thumbs -- you will
likely find a common ancestor with the amazing ability to regenerate
lost body parts."
"Lucky descendants of this creature, including today's salamanders or
zebrafish, can still perform the feat, but humans lost much of their
regenerative power over millions of years of evolution." (hmmmm)
"We want to find more of these types of elements so we can understand
what turns on and ultimately controls the program of regeneration," said
Poss (programs are designed)
A prior post here by John Sanford and genetic entropy - "the human race is degenerating at 1-5% per generation"
"so
it's kind of a trade secret amongst population geneticists,any well
informed population geneticist understands man is degenerating"
"so in deep geological time we should have been extinct a long time ago"

Is nature mostly a tinkerer or an inventor? or was it all front loaded? by Who?
Who did the front loading?
IDvolution - God “breathed” the super language of DNA into the “kinds” in the creative act.
Phys.org August 18, 2015 published the following.
Is nature mostly a tinkerer or an inventor?
The Krüppel-like factor and specificity protein (KLF/SP) genes are found across many species, ranging from single cell organisms to humans. This gene family has been conserved during evolution, because it plays a vital role in regulating the expression of other genes.
"This is interesting because it supports the idea that the appearance of new types of cells in a lineage of organisms as they evolve may be, more commonly, a consequence of turning off genes in unique temporal and spatial combinations," Browne said. "Large numbers of unique cell types are required to support the development of complex tissues and organs."

This accounts
for the diversity of life we see. The core makeup shared by all living
things have the necessary complex information built in that facilitates
rapid and responsive adaptation of features and variation while being
able to preserve the “kind” that they began as. Life has been created
with the creativity built in ready to respond to triggering events.

could be a thing of the past, according to the latest research.
The new evidence, from scientists at the University of St Andrews, suggests that some modern day animals may have evolved instead by becoming less complex.

Our Fragile Intellect
"Taken together, the large number of genes required for intellectual and emotional function, and the unique susceptibility of these genes to loss of heterozygosity, lead me to conclude that we, as a species, are surprisingly intellectually fragile and perhaps reached a peak 2000–6000 years ago. But if we are losing our intellectual abilities, how did we acquire them in the first place? This will be the topic of

Our Fragile Intellect
Trends in Genetics references this paper - Our Fragile Intellect.(download) What is interesting about this is that we peaked 2000-6000 years ago and now are
devolving. Or.... we started out pristine with the preternatural gifts
of bodily immortality and freedom from sickness and have lost it.
"I would wager that if an average citizen from Athens of
1000 BC were to appear suddenly among us, he or she
would be among the brightest and most intellectually alive
of our colleagues and companions, with a good memory, a
broad range of ideas, and a clear-sighted view of important
issues. Furthermore, I would guess that he or she would be
among the most emotionally stable of our friends and
colleagues. I would also make this wager for the ancient
inhabitants of Africa, Asia, India, or the Americas, of
perhaps 2000–6000 years ago. The basis for my wager
comes from new developments in genetics, anthropology,
and neurobiology that make a clear prediction that our
intellectual and emotional abilities are genetically surprisingly
fragile."
