Greetings!
One thing that's brought humans and its race thus far is Evolution. Without evolution, the planet earth would have been static without any new thing coming up to stay. But with evolution, we've seen a series of changes that have taken place.
Evolution, like I said , had been in existence right from the creation of heaven and earth and that's why the story of creation in the holy bible can be alluded to as God himself created everything through evolution. Also, the way God created Eve from Adam is another form of evolution where we have another version of man which is a woman.
Having said this and dwell so much on the origin of evolution and most especially human creation as a form of evolution, I would like to go straight to the topic before us which is about human evolution.
Human evolution has always taken place from time to time, we have seen in the past and from my above analysis how humans were being created by God himself which is a form of evolution. Also, every stage of pregnancy right from conception to delivery to me is another form of evolution which means God himself is an evolutor who made things to change from their former state to another state just for the purpose of development.

Also, the place of science and technology in human evolution cannot be overemphasized. Although it's through us humans that both science and technology are brought to us, the impact of science and technology on the human race has brought an unexplainable evolution to the human race.
Gone are the days when everything was done in a crude way. Back in the days, the means of communication was crude, farming was also done in a crude manner and just to mention but a few. But since since the advent of science and technology, things have evolved from the crude ways to the modern ways.
Now, people can now communicate with those that are far or close to them via technological devices which had been put in place to replace letter writing which could take months or years before it can be delivered to the recipient. This is a form of evolution.
Also, agriculture is now practiced with ease without stress as it used to be in the past where people with their cutlasses and hoes with other crude farming equipment spent days on the farm just to clear an acre of land for farming. That was in the past as the world has evolved to using mechanized machines to cultivate their lands within a few hours which has in one way or the other helped in solving shortage of food issues in the land.
If I should continue with the way humans have evolved through science and technology, I will lose count and time would not even permit me to go on and on.
But instead of dwelling on what evolution has brought to humans through technology, I would rather discuss what would be the next stage of human evolution.
In my own view, what I think would be the next stage of evolution is not far-fetched. What would be the next stage of evolution is that, there would be an improvement on all those things that science and technology had brought to us. In fact, we are already experiencing that evolution now as we now have an upgraded version of everything we now use and with this current evolution, life has been made easy for all.
The only thing that I think would follow suit is that machines would be manufactured to do everything fully for humans without humans doing anything. You now, human still do things like cooking, eating bathing and some other things like that, but in the next phase of evolution, nothing like that would happen as technological developed machine would take charge of human activities including walking, but my fear is that this would have a negative impact on the human race if care is not taken as we would be carried away with the ease of evolution.
In conclusion, evolution is about change and development and when it comes it exposes us to new things and way of life, but my advice is that we should not be carried away with the ease of evolution.
