Yes, you are a mutant. A person in the middle east (can't think of where), was born with blue eyes due to a genetic mutation. These eyes somehow are an advantage, (scientists believe that since they are an oddity, they might attract mates.). The normal eye color is brown, due to the pigment in our skin and hair and everywhere else. The blue eye mutation, prevents pigment cells from forming in our eyes. This allows the blue to show instead of brown.
Cool! I'd never heard that research before. Now, here's my question. Is there a link between mutation and evolution. From what I understand, a mutation in favor of a speicies well being or continuation is considered evolution. I could be wrong so please correct me if I am.
All mutations are evolution in a sense. The more successful ones (usually) get carried on and the less successful ones (such as your eyes no longer working) usually die off. Evolution simply is a change in the species, whether it is good or bad is irrelevant.
So then if homosexuality is a mutation it doesn't necessarily make them anymore mutant than the rest of us.
