From sharing the earth with many other human species merely as hunter gatherers trying to brave the elements, to building rockets, creating the internet, and now with our eyes set on Mars, the history of humanity is one that’s filled with determination, cooperation, and ingenuity. We have done much more for ourselves than our ancestors could have ever imagined. Today, humans dominate contemporary life on Earth, but we haven’t always been this powerful.

    i thought it would be another video with repeated same materials & citation for such topic but I was wrong.
    the words were carefully selected and the narrative & the presentation of the progress while comparing it to old times once in a while, make it fresh among the variety of videos made for such topic.
    Thanks for all your efforts & thanks again for brining us such videos to the masses

    Strong people make easy times and easy times makes weak people and bad problems worse we start conflicts for nothing when it’s easy for us but in hard times we come together why can’t we keep helping each other all the time regardless of others beliefs doesn’t mean we have to go to war

    It’s easy to make friends to enemies and it’s hard to make enemies friends

    It’s hard to bring a group together but easy to make it fall apart

    "Then around 12,000 years ago something incredible happened theorized to have occurred in multiple different locations around the world simultaneously humans decided to start cultivating plants and breeding animals."

    The History of Humanity — "Then God said, 'Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule….So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them." — (Genesis 1:26-27). Notice God says both "our" and "his" image — the reason is that God is completely unique in His holiness, who is One God, as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. "Elohim" is the name of God in Hebrew in Genesis chapter 1, which is a plural name for the One God of the Bible. Genesis chapter one is a generalized account of the creation of the universe, planet, plants, animals, and humans — there are no specific lists about flamingos, rhinos, butterflies, amoebas, etc. Genesis chapter 2 is about the LORD God "Yahweh Elohim" creating Adam and Eve specifically in the Garden of Eden, which would be located around the Persian Gulf of Iraq and Iran in modern times. God is asserting Himself as LORD over Adam and Eve, directly. When Adam and Eve are banished from the Garden of Eden for their sin, Cain, one of their sons, is concerned about other humans outside the Garden of Eden after he had murdered Abel (Genesis 4:14-15). The Bible says, "the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose." — (Genesis 6:2). The sons of God were from the Garden of Eden as God as their LORD, whereas the daughters of humans had God outside the Garden of Eden, but not as LORD. As Paul said, "From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. 'For in him we live and move and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.' Therefore since we are God's offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone — an image made by human design and skill. In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent." — (Acts 17:26-30). Therefore, either directly (such as Jews), or indirectly through intermarriage, all humans are linked together in their genetic history to the Garden of Eden and to the God of the Bible. Additionally, God gives other possible human situations, in that "The Nephilim were on the earth in those days…" (Genesis 6:4). The Nephilim could have been neanderthal-like human beings, potentially, in ancient times.

    What was advertised as a 10 minute summary of human history turned into a dubious lecture on the evils of capitalism. It’s ends with a somber call to return to nature and create, “a world the ancient hominids would be proud of.”

    In judging a modern economic system responsible for our present troubles, the video’s creators have completely ignored points they made in the earlier part of the video about those ancient ancestors and the history of human development. They depict over-hunting, resource depletion and migration, war making, and human exploitation that stretches back tens of thousands of years before capitalism ever existed.

    The point is that whatever tools humanity discovers or creates – fire, cities, democracy, the steam engine, the computer, capitalism, clean energy, etc. – none of them will ever change the fallen nature of man.

    We need to stop changing our tools, systems, and environments and start changing ourselves.

    Humility, selflessness, forgiveness, frugality, and compassion. These are the solution, if we are wise and patient enough to employ them.

    The Buddhists worship cows because they believe they had part in humanitys creation. There is a species of Gibbons in the area that feasts on the shrooms that grow out of cow waste. We basically see the Stoned Ape theory in the works. Gibbons have developed very complex social structures and behaviours for their species, they also walk upright.
