TP: "From The Monkey to The Odyssey: any idea how long"? This is a significant point.

Any idea where & when the transition occurred?

(Kid form Kansas wants to know,)

Book I

"Sing to me of the man, Muse, the man of twists and turns

driven time and again off course, once he had plundered

the hallowed heights of Troy.

"Many cities of men he saw and learned their minds,

many pains he suffered, heartsick on the open sea,

fighting to save his life and bring his comrades home.

But he could not save them from disaster, hard as he strove -

the recklessness of their own ways destroyed them all,

the blind fools, they devoured the cattle of the Sun

and the Sungod blotted out the day of their return.

"Launch out on his story, Muse, daughter of Zeus,

start from where you will - sing for our time too."

Thus begins the great, epic poem the "Odyssey" by Homer.

Question #2 TP

Is this the " Blind Watchmaker " at Work?

In only the last 2000 years human intelligence has
increased by an almost logarithmic power

Don't confuse intelligence (The capicity
to learn) with the amount of information
discovered. The greeks of 500BCE were easily
as intelligent as any recent person.


animals are rapidly approaching us in IQ

I've learned that you are not a stupid person,
but you play one on this thread. This is another
strawman argument so I presume you have to response to the real arguments
made.
