  • The way human history is taught is misleading, argues Matt Ridley. Far too much emphasis is placed on the “top-down twitch” - the belief that change comes from on high: the politicians who run countries, scientists who discover truths, inventors who make breakthroughs, men and women who head companies. In fact, Ridley says, bottom-up progress through evolution is far more crucial. From the natural forces that formed the universe and human life itself to the cultural mechanisms that have shaped everything from our educational system and global financial structure, to the products we buy and the language we speak, “evolution is far more common, and far more influential, than most people recognize.”

    This talk has officially blown my mind. The idea of taking the principles of science and biological processes and applying those to government, economics, sociology, even music...WOW. I'm going out right now and buying all of this guy's books. Thank you for sharing this!

    It's rare that ideas are so intellectually convincing that they make you question your view on things you believed were cut and dried. But this is just fascinating, more so for me as a history teacher. Thank you for sharing.

    Poets and profits are one in the same. Language is a very unreliable tool. Meanings change with time.

    Evolution in its most definition with few exceptions varies tremendously in velocity .Moore's Law is quite an oddity.

    The human eye that allows us to see is purposed by God. No man can deny the existence of God, for if he does, he denies the existence of himself and the exquisite nature all around him. Our Creator is the maker of the heaven and the earth. He is not hiding his attributes nor his Will from us. You will find out by reading His Holy Scriptures in the King James bible. The only authorized bible that has no copyright. Read the book of John in the new testament and the book of Isaiah. In Isaiah, the coming of the son of God was foretold hundreds of years before His coming to earth to take on the punishment of the sins of the human world. Don't you know that you and all people have broken God's laws and need to ask him for forgiveness? I received immediate forgiveness because I came to the Lord Jesus Christ in a humble state and asked out-loud for Him to save me from my sins that had been separating me from His holy perfection. Now, I bring all my questions to Jesus through daily prayer. I have found Him and the bible to be true because I no longer care for the opinions of imperfect men and I desire to follow Christ. This is a matter of where your soul will go when you die... Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life: No man cometh unto the Father, but by me." Once you receive the gift of salvation, Jesus Christ said, "I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you."
