Humans became humans by almost becoming extinct, probably hundreds of times during our 2.5 million year journey from old world primates. Compare us to our ancestors and you will find vast differences. Then compare today’s old world primates to the old world primates of 2.5 million years ago. It’s hard to tell them apart.
There is a killing force among us which causes the chaos, the biasing frequency, needed for change. It is the combination of carbohydrates and deadly viruses. There is also a saving force which we inherited from old world primates. It is the ability to exogenate deadly viruses into our DNA and code around them.
Hominids became humans because they could eat carbs. They also died because they ate carbs. The catch is, the survivors ate fats instead of carbs. Fats provide the cellular energy needed for epigenetic recoding.
But neither of the forces you mention are anywhere near as powerful or influential as the second law of thermodynamics.
Well sure but what about the exogenous bifurcation caused by the recombinant dna when it interacts (positive/negative) with the biomass resulting from the reconfigured plutostasis enzymes?
