Human Evolution: Homo Sapiens -> Society -> Human Progress
Most videos on this site reflect the generally accepted theories on Human Evolution and the Emergence of Civilization and Society. However, alternative theories exist that should not be discharged as they sometimes answer questions that cannot be thouroughly explained by official theories.
Alternative theories may leave doubts on other issues, but it's not a reason to just bluntly discart them as do conventional (Newtonian) scientists.
But as also can be seen on several of the videos here, history shows many cases of 'alternative' theories being rejected as foolish by established scientific authorities, while ten, twenty or a hundred years later they do proof to be correct. Discharging theories should not be done easily.
Please excuse the disapperance of some embedded Youtube videos because they are being censored or deleted due to the ever (profit-obsessed) MSM copy-rights.
There is almost no keeping up, but we will do our best to improve this situation.
Alternative theories state that both the beginning of the evolution of mankind as the beginning of civilization could be brought back much further in time then we have been taught by conventional science. There are even theories that suggest mankind, or life, were "put" on earth on purpose by aliens.
Human Progress is open to and curious about all theories that have some scientifically sustainable proof or logic, including the aliens version. However, we do admit we don't like that one too much :) This is not just because it actually offers considerably less proof than other theories, but more specifically, we don't like the idea of just shifting away the two most interesting and beautiful enigmas that still need to be resolved satisfactory:
It is, admittedly, a conscious choice to stick to a specific set of theories: we simply like to think that evolution of life as we know it, did all happen on our own planet and that all the answers can be found here (say, within the solar system) if we just keep investigating until finding enough and the right evidence, while adjusting and refining existing theories on the go. Accepting the aliens theory would only push those questions somewhere else, away from us, where we can't go to find the answers.
For the moment we prefer to stick to the building blocks of life (amino-acids) having developed in space, but then evolved into life and eventually human being here on earth. No further external manipulation of any kind after this.
There are many questions that are not answered satisfactory at all by established theories, leaving a wonderful world of speculations yet to dig into. Just two examples drawn from the various videos on this site:
