Atavisms: Now Who Can We Trust?

Have you ever given someone a high-five or a fist bump, only to come to the sudden horrific realization that that person has webbed fingers? How about, rounding third base with your high school sweetheart, reaching down the back of her pants to find a small, bony vestigial tail protruding? Or, have you ever been talking to a hairy man-chimp, only to have your conversation rudely interrupted by their sudden fit of hiccups? If so, then, you may have been in contact with a mutant. Well, not mutants, exactly. More like freaks of nature. Freaks of unnature, because what has happened to these people is not by any means natural, in fact, it entirely contradicts evolution and still leaves biologists scratching their heads to this day. In case you're unaware or haven't googled the word atavism yet, they are traits from distant evolutionary ancestors that reemerge in a modern day organism. In a nut-shell, these birth defects are our DNA giving Mother Nature the middle finger and telling her to suck our mobius strips. Now, this is counterproductive to evolution, because normal 'mutations' of species that occur over time are meant to only be beneficial for the species. For example, millions of years ago, whales used to be land animals, but over the course of millenia, the need for a food supply drove them into the water, eventually eliminating the need for legs. And yet, every once in a while, there will be a whale born with an abnormality that gives them a full set of legs. Now you may be asking by this point, why bring this up? Is there a point to this? Do you like open ended questions? And the answer to all three of those questions (except the first, which was hypothetical) is: Yes. My point is simply this...: Sure these abnormalities COULD have just been insignificant flukes in the natural order or things... OR...they could be the beginning of the end for all of us. Think about it, would YOU want to live in a world full of hybrid human-kangaroo-bat people??! ...Yea, I didn't fucking think so. So, get up off your fat asses people (first check for a tail) and do something about it! The time is now! Strike back!
