If people become more stupid, this might be interpreted as a loss of function or a weakening of development, but that's not de-evolving (which actually has no ; even if our cultures completely fall apart and we revert to incoherence, that's still evolution - being smart and becoming dumb is still evolution - the result of changing gene frequencies in populations over time.
But that won't happen unless that characteristic is selected by the environment - I would suggest a shift toward any belief in fundamentalist religions as a good example of being smart and becoming dumb |
