My man! Wonderful stuff! I cover evolution in my book so I’m interested to see where this goes, but even in my book, I don’t think I recall Huxley being close to it. I think I knew it, but this is a phenomenal example of how our world was literally built by a few people.

From Huxley, to Darwin, to Owens, these men lay the foundation for the world we have today. Knowing and understanding how the view the world is key to knowing just what world they created; this Brave new world: https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/the-brave-new-world-of-1984-part

Can’t wait to see what drops next! Great stuff.

I always wondered about the mechanics of evolution. How did one species evolve into another.... day to day, I mean.

All this hand waving with, "Oh, it happened over millions of years". We couldn't possibly understand how and should just stop thinking about it. These smart paleontologists said so, so shut up about the how and whys.

But how did a land animal evolve into a whale, for example? That's what they claim happened. Did they get chased into the sea by predators and just start hanging around in there more? Have babies and only the strong swimmers survived? And on and on until they just didn't bother going on land again and magically lost their legs? I mean, come on!

It is mind boggling just what we are prepared to believe when people of 'authority' tell us it is so.

They studied the isotopes of oxygen in fossil bones - that's how they know, apparently. So many degrees of separation from what the eyes can see. It is so ridiculous. That's $cience folks!
