Re: no sound ever comes from the gates of eden

You misjudge me, grievously

I'd fully registered that Tombo wasn't of the Eden persuasion. But I was actually wanting to confront the fact that such a concept "seems to bounce round discussions of pre-monumental history all the time" not lay it on him and knock him down. It seemed to me it's such an often mentioned thing and deserved attention.

Mental and physical evolution going hand in hand - I'd have thought that's right, as evolution is powered only by survival, or more precisely, non-survival, so if a change of attitude isn't life threatening it isn't an evolutionary change, merely a societal one and liable to change back at any time.
