it really depends on how you define a species
I'm not sure we are so genetically different from earlier humans that we couldn't sexually reproduce with them, a hallmark of speciation.
Modification of the genetic code is possible, but some bacteria can accomplish this to a small degree and it doesn't pose a huge issue to taxonomy.
Regardless, humans are still evolving, and there is no such thing as devolution.

This is only the beginning of the end.

We could change, evolve, or even move away from this planet. We cold become an inter-galactic empire in some distant future, but there will always be an end. I really don't think we could survive the extinction of heat, in the remote future.

Lil Wayne is awesome btw and none of them are signs of devolution people have extreme opinions is not a sign of devolution.
Any of those people had they grown in a different environment things would have change for better or for worse.

That doesn't make any sense. There was a time in the early universe when there was no light. However, that does not mean there was no darkness. There is no such thing as a darkness partial. Darkness is the absents of light. That means if there is no light, then it is dark.

ahh... grasshopper.. but, would you know what is darkness if you had never known light? now young monk meditate on the meaning of the question and possibly the answer 😎

That is just silly. Even a blind person can understand that light is radiation, and darkness is the absents of radiation (light).

on our planet lightness can end if our sun was to colapse.
true. scratch light. i actually asked myself if light would qualify before i typed it out cause i thought well without light, darkness, as a concept, would not exist. it'd be something else. a void. But since darkness does exist and can be eternal, it's opposite, light, must be eternal, as well. but you're right, lightness can end with that sun phase but it returns anew continuously.
it's still an immortal way, though.

The only thing keeping us from putting people on Mars is budget constraints. Going further than that (to literally anywhere in the universe) only takes time.I also think it's reasonable to assume we'll be at least slightly more advanced in five billion years.
to add to that it's only a matter of time, as well.
lol and slightly? you understimate the potential of the human race. we've advanced more in the past 100 years than anyone else before that has in a thousand+ years.
