Has been for ages) we’ll end up something like the people in THX 1138. Capable of intelligence but bred for dumb assembly work. We could indeed evolve into dumber creatures over time.

Jesus as god is a fraud. Yhwh hates people, and that is why you are made to suffer.
Serious answer.
The Gnostics had a way out of this, ut you’ll probably convert to Islam, Judaism or some shit, rather than drop the lot of them.
