Progress? Against what? There isn't some Universal unit we measure our 'evolutionary progress' by, the very concept is anthropocentric irrelevance and demonstrates my point perfectly.

Why can't you measure evolutionary progress by an organism's ability to adapt and survive?

ETA: what I meant by evolutionary progress was following the path evolution naturally leads us down.
