Radical perspectives on human evolution

Unravelling the Origins of “Free Will”
In this thought-provoking article, we delve into the intriguing notion of "free will" and its roots, examining it from the perspective of my genetic error theory. By examining the evolutionary implications of this concept, we uncover its profound impact on the human…
Modern human is a remnant of Heidelberg man
What makes us human? Is it consciousness? Is it our ability to reach reality? And specifically better than other species? Do we have a purpose? Are we closer to the gods because of that? Because humans represent such a radical break with…

What is wrong with philosophy
Why does philosophy often not help to understand the human mind and, on the contrary, obscure things? Why are questions of philosophy “eternal”? The “mother of Sciences” has influenced how we read the human mind and see it as an…
