Evolution has not ceased; it merely changed its course.
Even though contemporary medicine results in fewer individuals dying before they can reproduce, natural selection remains influential on our genes. In fact, some researchers argue that modern lifestyles have quickened our evolutionary progress. An accelerated way of living brings about more rapid changes and even swifter adaptations. Homo sapiens is far from completing the journey of human evolution. What once molded us in nature now manifests through hygiene, nutrition, and societal frameworks. However, the narrative is far from finished. All we need to do is examine our DNA and observe the marks of an ongoing evolution.
