Evolution doesn't work like a step-ladder going up. It is a diverging tree. Where humanity is going is very difficult to predict. Natural selection doesn't act much upon our populations any more. Now our evolution will be governed almost exclusively by genetic drift which is a random process. One simply cannot predict this, it just might be that tomorrow another major extinction event occurs wiping out 99.99% of species and things effectively have to start over with a severely pruned evolutionarily tree. Given such an event and the fact that there is only one human speciesand well over a million beetle species, which do you think has the higher statistical chance of surviving long term.
