Story telling

12 Aug 2021 3 58
Creative story telling -- perhaps the oldest of arts -- is found throughout history, and like language itself, is spontaneously devised and understood by human beings everywhere. Human pleasure in imaginative fictions, from tales told in preliterature tribes through Greek theater, bulky nineteenth-century novels, and film and televised entertainments today. Far from being derived from sets of cultural conventions, the enjoyment of fiction shows clear evidence of Darwinian adaptation, for instance, in how even every young children can rationally deal with the make-believe aspect of stories, distinguishing story-worlds from each other and from reality with a high degree of innate sophistication. Not only does the artistic structure of stories speak to Darwinian sources: so does the intense pleasure taken in their universal themes of live, death, adventure, family conflict, justice, and overcoming adversity.

What is a species?

Every part of human body and mind has a physical base obedient to the laws of physics and chemistry. And all of it, so far as we can tell by continuing scientific examination, originated through evolution by natural selection. To continue the basics: evolution consists of a change in the frequency of genes in populations of species. A species is defined (often imperfectly) as a population, or series of populations, whose members freely interbreed or are capable of freely interbreeding under natural conditions. ~ Page 17

Carl Woese compared the genetic sequence of many different organisms, especially, microbes, to construct phlogenetic tree of life. He found three distinct branches of life, including the previously unrecognized Archaea. The majority of the most deeply rooted organisms are extremophiles living at high temperature
