Humans are still evolving - and it's happening faster than ever

Six-day creationists look away now. The referenced article reports studies on human genetic drift. One of the more interesting points, for me, was this:

'The widespread assumption that human evolution has slowed down because it's easier to live and we've conquered nature is absolutely not true. We didn't conquer nature, we changed it in ways that created new selection pressures on us,' said anthropologist Dr John Hawks

Just so. It's the reappearance of our old cultural friend the human-nature dichotomy: our persistent view that nature is 'out there' not something we are part of. The interesting thing is, and this has been noticed by others, culture is now an evolutionary driver.
