We seem to be writing about different things here - my perception is that  
we are a degenerate form of primitive/paleo man.
This is caused by diet, as shown in Weston A. Price's book. Including poor  
vision, latest said to be a reaction to excess carbohydrate in childhood  
and/or pre-natal.

If it were possible to have a group of people eat drink and breath  
completely paleo, then in three generations their offspring would be  
exactly identical to paleolithic man. Ref. Pottenger's Cats.
In theory.
