Macro-evoloution
I just picked the title out of the air. Then I thought to myself, "I wonder if this is a term already in use?" So I ran it through a search engine and welp, low and behold, there is link on the differnce between micro and macro evoloution as defined by Darwin. I'm noting this because I've never heard of either of these terms before and yet it was the exact word phrase I thought best described the topic I want to delve into...It's seems like sometimes all those thoughts coming through here aren't all enitrely mine--But I dont want to get into that just yet.
Anyway, I'm wondering what are the substantial differences that sepearate the human personality from that of animals? Why is it that our path has diverged so far from any other on this planet?
I've come up with two differnces that radically disriminate the human experience from the others. First, our higher need for order has drastically changed the environment into a sophisticated society. Second, the divine impulse, has created thousands of unique religious movements creating a more abstract reality than what meets the eye.
If you can think of any more I'd love to hear your thoughts. I'm drawing off of topics I've been thinking about in the Movie Waking Life and some books, The Celestine Series, Ishmael, etc...
