Summary of our species’ heroic journey from ignorance to enlightenment

Now that we can understand the good reason we conscious humans corrupted our all-loving original instinctive self or soul, and can therefore truthfully acknowledge all the stages our ancestors went through, from our innocent, early bonobo-like Australopithecus childhood ancestors through to the upset adolescent Homo varieties of our ancestors, the true story of our species’ journey from ignorance to enlightenment can finally be told. This journey is described in chapter 8 of FREEDOM where the following sequence of fossil skulls of our ancestors appears, as well as the series of drawings I created (and which appear throughout chapter 8) to illustrate the various stages I describe the human race as progressing through.

 

A series of seven human fossil skulls arranged in order of increasing brain case size and corresponding species maturation.
