After my recent success pushing back what I know about human evolution … entirely on my own through my own endeavours using evidence I sourced myself, without the slightest help from academia … I was rather intrigued to see what academia had said on the same subjects.
It took me several hours of searching to find the right subject “name” and then several hours of searching and reading to convince myself that I had indeed, found the right area and not some bizarrely obscure part of some other subject, because it seemed to have little to do with real human evolution.
For me, human evolution is how real humans changed in the real world. In academia “evolution” appears to be bouncing mind games with no connection to the real world. I struggle to see how their research relates to real evolution.
Of course, the real reason I was looking around, is that I have the chore of looking at the evidence and yet again trying to push forward a subject, which no one else seems to be interested in – I certainly couldn’t talk to those academics about my research. It would be like aliens talking to Amazonian Indians (which group knows more about living in the ancient past?)
But the reason to post another “good day” article, is that having ditched one idea, I am now finding that not only is the new ideas working better in its own area, but it is actually making more sense for other things. My entire model of early evolution all seems to fit a lot better now, which gives me more confidence I’m on the right line.
And yet, what I am doing is like chalk and cheese compared to academia.
I suppose, like the Hare in the Tortoise and Hare … I’m tempted to sit down and get a rest because the Tortoise is so far behind.
