Is the human brain still evolving?

No, it's de-volving. Just look how stupid people are in this country, voting for a fraud like Obama. Heck, they are too stupid to even know the difference between a forged COLB and a real birth certificate, and those are people who are supposed to be educated journalists and investigative reporters, judges, law enforcement and others in high office.

Then there is this global warming BS, deviant sexual behavior, etc etc etc.
Nope, there is no sign of increasing intelligence in this country.

Your logic is unassailable. And we see it in a few years.

Freedom as an ideal is no more. The thinking required to make it work is far gone.

*sigh*

"No, it's de-volving."

I think you're probably right, but for different reasons than you posit. Beginning centuries ago, but especially this last century, a human's brain doesn't no longer to be as effective as it once did to survive. With the advent of social-help programs all over the globe, and particularly in the developed world, one can frankly be dumb as a stump and still make it long enough to procreate.

So, where once only the smartest human animals would "spread their seed", now every moron and their brother is passing their "idiot" gene along to countless unsuspecting human offspring. This is not a good sign in Darwin's Theory of evolution.

The modern human brain is a bit smaller than the cro magnon brain.

One does not need as much intelligence to live in a civilized society.

Or domesticated...
