Anthropologist's have shown us that man generally has collaborated and bonded on a group basis, and even though mutations occur in individuals, it is the group continuum and its gene pool that is transmitted to future generations. That being said, Raymond Cattell's evolutionary position was that races are a transient thing and in the future there will be a self-conscious selection process by each cultural-ethnic group. In the long term Cattell thought that homo sapiens would split into more than one species, as evolution proceeds.
Where is the focus of evolution today? Long ago the focus was in the sea, which was nine/tenths of life on earth, then the focus moved to the land, where evolution moved faster to the changing conditions. Now the effects of evolution have relaxed with the easy survival of modern civilization, which has shifted evolution away from pruning the less adapted forms. This has generally led to a genetic load of genes that are not all that healthy.
Can we take over evolution from nature? Can we escape natural selection? I have heard that our control of evolution can proceed 10 million times faster than natural selection. The question is: evolution toward where? Which goals? Absolutes generally define the goals, Absolute Beauty, Absolute Truth and Intelligence, Absolute Goodness and Power, these are the general guides for our evolution---Godhood is defined as the zenith of these things. Activating Tirips or the Will within activates material life, and is shaped by outside evolution, and it knows its goal.
Ethnopluralism says that the enslavement of a people or a state by one imperial group over another goes against long-term evolutionary ethics and survival. The ecumenical plan of the Theoevolutionary Church regarding future evolution is that all people, all small states, all ethnic groups, rise separately together, and cooperate with sociobiological evolutionary information, even as they compete. This is Civilizing the Beast. Territoriality formerly prevented demographic instability and infighting among distinctly different people. It also provided time for desirable adaptations to accumulate over generations, and allowed for a more orderly evolution. Eventually we hope that ethnopluralism will be seen as the most humane way to proceed.
