To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today. (Isaac Asimov great quote, he should have been knighted by the queen ! )

Unitl the next laughable flurry of cut n pastes here by those with feeble comprehension skillsets , its never ending source of amusement that one of the great discoveries of the human mind of the biological "Tree of Life" & fitting these puzzle pieces together as being "mindless" .

But mindless really compared to all the volumes written since medieval times divining the ways of what is proper ritual practice & good against what is dark evil demon possessions, that kind of mindless?
( Compared to that we have it said that evolution & Darwinism is "mindless" which is just so brilliant an idea as to silence even the lambs in the fields with only an occasional "baaaaahh" )

Its also amusing that one of the routes taken is the accusation that this is a new "religion" but in one sense they could be right and so much to their horror they rant & rave as a secular end nears for all belief in the magics of the supernatural . Many of the world religions seem to have begun as revitalization movements , as the vision of a charismatic prophet fires the imaginations of people seeking a more comprehensive answer to their problems than they could feel with the accepted normal everyday stories & ritualized practices .

Well they just could be right though that is not what Darwin intended now its up to us to take what is shown up & pay the proper respect its due , draw the right conclusions that study of the "Tree of Life" would engender in human thought . One could see a great odyssey in the transitioning between crouching ape & upright walking man the tool maker but to wish this discovery away & call it purposelessness for the sake of editorializing , well thats what could be called truely mindless.
