Neanderthal Mashup

Modern humans have several fragments of Neanderthal DNA, which suggests that the chimpo sapiens did indeed manage to mate successfully with at least one of the other proto-human species. The implications are, of course, broad and potentially volatile.

First, the "purest" humans are most likely only found in Africa, where all species of humans are said to have originated. European and East Asian humans have some traces of the Neanderthal (and possibly Denisovan) genome due to interspecies commingling.

Typical Modern Human Hottie

Modern human mitochondrial and Y-chromosome DNA has traced human origins to Africa. Nearly the entire migration pattern out of Africa has also been mapped. Neanderthals and Denisovans (both extinct) were proto-human species, both of which migrated much earlier out of Africa.

In other words, the African "Negro" is the original and purest form of chimpo sapiens. Genetic drift and interspecies DNA dilution account for the rest of what we call humanity. Nearly every foolish belief about "races," ethnicity, genetic inferiority, "pedigrees," and bloodlines are just "hogwash." We are all related, as we have common ancestors way in the deep past.

Barring the extremely unlikely existence of a creative deity, we could extrapolate our lineage right back to ancestral apes and chimpanzees. In other words, we have animal roots. Thus, we are animals, too. The whole of the failed "civilization" paradigm and dominion entitlements can be discarded. Everything we believe is "hogwash."

Accepting the fact that we are animals means that we must discard foolish religious beliefs. The Church of Evolution will be the only credible edifice left standing. Yet, the church has no dogma, no morality, no sin, no commandments, no rituals, no vestments, no priests, and absolutely no deity to worship. A strange, albeit refreshing, church indeed.

So, what's the point? All animals want to be free. In our case, real knowledge can set us free. The Church of Evolution, like the Church of Quantum Physics and the Church of "Big Bang" Cosmology, can emancipate us from the tyranny of human stupidity.

Nearly every aspect of human existence is a state of dominion. We could probably trace the beginnings of the deranged ideology to persons with extreme views on control, that is, a small percentage of the population who must exact tortuous amounts of coercion on everyone and everything. Whereas, the majority of the population are more quiescent in nature, always capitulating to the demands of the controllers. All in all, quite similar to the "pecking order" in avian species.

The "pecking order" and the expansion and amplification of locus of control are issues that have come to the forefront quite recently. The controllers do not wish to grant freedom to anyone. They themselves are not free. Rather, the controllers are locked in a petty internal battle over control of their own psyches. Failing at that, they must use the vehicle of projection to enforce control over all that is external to them. If they cannot control, they lose control (of themselves). That is the so-called "human condition" in a nutshell.

Food Poisoning Mini-Update®
The food poisoning ordeal officially ended on Thursday evening when I procured three bean burritos with lots of hot sauce at Taco Bell® for dinner. Yum!

Tablet Computer Mini-Update®
In an attempt to convert the tablet computer to a passive consumption device, I downloaded free "apps" for free flicks and free Net radio. Alas, so formulaic, so boring, too much advertising ... kind of like a certain capstone football game. The "apps" were immediately mummified.
