I think we have stalled evolution. 1 in every 500 live births produces a child with Polydactyly or extra digits. Taking into consideration the human population is somewhere in the neighborhood of 6,632,394,084 give or take a birth/death. The percentage isn’t that great. But what if we are impeding the progress of evolution
by having the extra digit removed because “no kid of mine’s gonna be a freak !”
What if the extra digit is needed to help us survive something cataclysmic nature has in store a few centuries from now or to master interstellar travel we need another finger.
“That’s stupid.” Oh really? Why five fingers why not four? What does the pinky do that the ring finger can,t.
Take guitar players for instance when properly taught they re instructed to use the pinky when fingering scales or playing solos or what have you. A lot of self taught guitarist however don’t employ the pinky finger at all and are still amazing players.
What if the only thing that stopped primitive man from slicing off the freakish “fifth finger was that they had more pressing issues. Like hunting/gathering or being hunted / gathered.
Now a lot of the extra digits are non-functioning but on occasion they are. Now the brain has taken this new appendage into consideration and started to build the neuro pathways this new digit will need to do it’s thing. This would increase the brain’s capacity. Take into consideration that the brain regulates all of our
body’s functions from breathing to controlling our blood pressure to disposing of waste. Things that had to be done at different stages of our development or “evolution”
All I’m saying is thanks to the fact that some of you out there won’t take one for the team I’ll probably never get my flying car. Thanks
