Interesting that the latest significant evolutionary advancement of mankind is the development of a belief in God.
No other animal has it, it is very recent, and it is almost singularly responsible for the creation and advance of civilization.
The most Enlightened and advanced humans believe in God. (Atheists are retro and share the property with the animal kingdom, who are also atheist._

Duplication is a particularly powerful mutation.

"The researchers discovered that the genes with the DUF1220 domains are expressed in the heart, spleen, skeletal muscle, and small intestine, and are particularly active in the brain's neocortex. Thus, they may play a role in higher cognition."
I always knew that quite a few heads contain mostly intestines and their contents. It has been a self-evident truth, and now they even find a genetic basis for it.
