Will Man take the next step in Evolution?

False, the nature of our lives can change significantly based on our methods of thinking.
I agree with this. But it is not about biological evolution. The ability to do this already exists. It just needs to be recognized and acted on.

If a ladybug starts living in trees instead of on the Forrest floor it becomes a new species.
Not really, though you have the beginnings of potential speciation down. Moving to new hosts or different strata within the same host is selection that has driven speciation. Given the transient movement of insects merely residing in the tree tops is not necessarily grounds for speciation.



Think like an animal and you will act like an animal.
We are animals. Some of what we do is from that nature. Denying it would be acting like an animal in my opinion.
If turtles started wearing suits and hold canes next week I am sure scientists would be baffled and say that it was a miraculous display of natures evolution.
I would be baffled. It would falsify the theory of evolution. Who would make these suits for them?
Its false to narrow your thinking to which display of qualities constitutes it for an evolutionary process.
I think I understand what you are trying to say here. Heritable traits that persist and are passed down into a population constitutes evolutionary change. Training your mind or opening it to new possibilities does not.
For instant a spontaneous growth of a 6th finger or a set of wings would definitely be evolutionary.
It would be a mutation. If there was a selection pressure conserving the mutation, and it proliferated through a population, then it would be evolution. Mere mutation, is not evolution.
But if the mind does this it is not noticed? If the mind improves the conditions in which its host lives than is that not an evolutionary human achievement?
No. The mind is the result of evolution, but the ideas and actions that result are a manifestation of cognition and the use of that mind.
If the mind can now compared to the past rationalize and understand phenomena that is beyond the scope of past generations is that not an evolutionary achievement?
No. That is learning.
If man can transcend himself by applying his mind is that not an achievement?
It is an achievement. It isn't biological evolution. Building a house. Writing a novel. Answering posts on this forum. All of these are achievements. They may even be evidence of a man transcending himself through learning, applying and achieving. That is not something that is explained or predicted by the theory of evolution and is not biological evolution.

He will have to do it collectively because 1 man is insignificant.
Hmmmm. How can one man do anything collectively? History is replete with the achievements of individuals.

It could have been done already and we are just a spawning ground for the elites who has technologically evolved off our planet. Would explain the frequent case of Ufos in the sky and this talk of secret societies.

Human or alien is hard to say.
You misunderstand evolution and the connection it has to your ideas. Not to say that trying to better ourselves is a bad idea or that you don't have a point along those specific lines, but then you lost me with the UFO's and aliens. Facts not in evidence. I can only speculate on that which we know little or nothing about and how it connects to humans. If it is indeed real and there is a connection.

Let me once again answer the question; "Will Man take the next step in Evolution?"

It has already Happened. As mankind developed within the bodies of our animal ancestors, THE SON OF MAN, the Most High in the creation, who is currently developing within the body of mankind, already exists in our future and He [The Omega] is able to descend along his genetic thread of life that binds him to the beginning [The Alpha,] with who He is one, and knows everything that will occur in our future which is his past.

Do you realise that it is only after Elijah appears before the great and terrible day of God's wrath and gathers around himself the required number of Jews and gentiles, that the Son of Man then descends and enters the body of a man, where he is then treated with outrage and hung upon a tree, and when the veil of that temple is rent, the spirit of our God [The Son of Man, the Most High in the creation] is poured forth as fire upon the gentiles.

If I buy into that, will it become manifest in our reality? According to recent comments, it should. Sorry SZ, I'm not going to wait for your metamorphosis.
But I want to really be my dark elf LARP self who can throw lightning bolts and disintegrate things I touch and slay monsters with my indestructible sword.:(

None of this has anything to do with biological evolution or seems to have any evidence to support it.

That throwing lightning bolts thing could come in handy.
It does. So does the racial ability blinding curse, which is instant cast (no incant) and blinds the target for a minute. Magically buffing your HP and armor is also pretty good. Basically, being a self sustaining magic battery with a good sword hand comes in handy.
