I really don't even know what to say about this.  It is absolutely hysterical that this is what passes for sophisticated programming these days!:lol::lol::lol:

What he's describing sounds a lot like H.G. Wells' "The Time Machine," about a guy who travels into the future and sees goblin-like creatures that live underground, and dim witted innocent child-like creatures who live above ground.  All that's missing are the 7-8 foot tall perfect and symmetrical people.  But what he describes sounds like it incorporates details from that novel.

well yes that is exactly what they are describing--the caption on the picture of the elite aryan says it is from the movie adaptation of the Time Machine.

Ah ha!  Well see, there you go.  I didn't even read that.  I only read the first paragraph or so.  Now I see that at the end it talks about the "Time Machine" and HG Wells.

This is not fiction.   You might want to watch the second half of Alex Jones' new movie Endgame ; he covers this subject matter at length.

yeah, i know it isn't--i just thought the article was rather surreal because there is no attempt to even explain scientifically any of hese outrageous claims, like about women all having "pert breasts" in the future(WTF!!?) and this is what passes for NEWS these days.  i mean what is the average american thinking when they read stuff like this.  "scientists know best, I'll just let them make all the decisions. la deeda..."  but thanks for the recommendation.  i will check out endgame when i have a chance.

Well, the Daily Mail, which is where this link is from, is a British website, not American.  The url is ".uk"   And is it really any surprise that it would have an article with zero scientific basis when other headlines there include:  "The Spice Girls are already at each other's throats with Posh demanding star billing."  And then stuff about Liz Hurley on vacation, Posh Spice changing her hair color to brunette, and some other British starlet named Katie Price, aka "Jordan," England's equivalent of Pamela Anderson?  wink  There are valid news sites and then there are tabloid sites.   It would be a mistake to think that a tabloid sites represents real news.  They never have, and smart people know that and don't actually read them, let alone take them seriously.  And for the Americans who would actually be reading a British tabloid site to get the real news and actual scientific articles.....well, I guess we don't really need to worry about them.  !!

SAD.

'Pert breasts'... perhaps this is this one scientist's personal fantasy. Of course, naturally he'd be a member of the elite with all it's ladies and their 'pert breasts'. Besides they make it sound like the elite will have a kicking time in the future, not so. If it's going to be society hyper-hooked on appearances... the discontent will be endless.

Re: scientist says humanity to split into two races--haves and havenots

This seems like a cartoonish representation of what very well could become reality.  The transhumanist scientists are all salivating at their plans of creating brain chips which would enhance intelligence hundreds of times over.  Add in life extension and body enhancement technologies and you have yourself a whole new species of "post human" quasi-gods.  I don't think they will be too eager to share such things with the likes of the common man either; but they may be nice enough to let them live on as cattle.  I really do think that they have this in mind.  Although I also believe that they are going to encounter real problems instituting their plan. 

The article posted here seems to be purposefully misleading.

Re: scientist says humanity to split into two races--haves and havenots

I got real good laugh from this one, especially at the evolving/devolving human chart.

Humanity has been split via haves and havenots since before we where even human. If this race splitting was a possibility i would thing it would have played out by now. Perhaps it has, the ruling elites are rather stupid and ugly.
