Don't see how we could have taken about 10,000 or however amount of years since "humanoid" beings have been here but havnt evolved for about 3,000-4,000 years

Ever seen a black person? An Asian? An American Indian? Most significant of recent human evolutions.

Kid in russia and one in new york area? 6 fully functional fingers and its a dominate trait so it be passed on. Also i believe autism its natures why of trying to make kids smarter which it does in once sense but other area's get stunted. The last part is just my observable speculation no proof that i know of

You stupid f*ck humans don't have to adapt to an environment anymore, we force the environments to adapt to us, hence we don't have to evolve, the gene pool is kept wide open as a mass genocide by natural causes hasn't happened in a while
-
It's got nothing to do with that. We're still going to biologically evolve, regardless of the conditions. We're still evolving and we're going to keep evolving. Difference now is we're aware of it, so of course it's going to seem slower. It's like asking why the continents have stopped moving. They haven't. The process is just so slow we are not going to notice any change in our lifetime.

I'm referring to evolution at the stage where the species is visibly changed, I doubt this will happen any time soon and honestly I've just spent a long ass time debating religion I lack the will to explain further
-
I'm not religious in the least. But assuming evolution will stop because we adapt the environment is absurd. We will continue to evolve, and do so in a manner that helps us adapt the environment to ourselves.
-
Because natural selection doesn't have a huge affect on us anymore. The more advanced we became the more "less suited" individuals could survive. Also we have you notice how an African native looks nothing like a Native American or how they both look dramatically different from a Scandinavian. There has been evolution occurring since the first "humans" evolved. But I can tell you that Hominids have been around a lot longer then 10,000 years. That sounds more like when homosapien (humans and a number of other subspecies whom died out) first appeared.

Because it takes a long time, especially since we live in houses and have vaccines, we don't live in the environment anymore.

That has more to do with nutrition, I believe.
