The Human Birth Defect: on the Origins of Human Unhappiness, and Its Cure. William J. Kelleher Ph.d

The genocide of Neanderthals is the Big Bang of world culture. Like the ?Expanding Universe? of heavenly bodies, we live in an expanding culture universe composed of the basic themes begun in Europe some 35,000 to 30,000 years ago. Sophisticated language and organized warfare, for example, took shape during this time. Humanity began to redefine itself as distinct from other earthly creatures by its power of speech. Once the pre-religious rituals for the slaughter of large mammals ran out of Neanderthals, more than a dozen species, such as the great Elk, the giant Sloth, cave bear, and woolly Mammoth, also fell victim to humanity?s blood lust ? a lust learned during the genocide of Neanderthals. Why did our ancestors do these dastardly deeds? Perhaps more importantly, how can anyone know even that these things were done, much less why they were done? Using the new tools of empathic science, Dr. Kelleher answers these, and many other questions, about the human mind and its motivations. In the course of this adventure, the reader will learn how the first true humans lived from the time the Human Genome emerged, about 150,000 years ago, through the genocide of Neanderthal, which ended around 30,000 years ago. Throughout this long period, humanity was, and continues to be, driven to search for a way to heal its Human Birth Defect. That will be described with anatomical precision. Dr. Kelleher?s writing is so clear and entertaining that no reader will be able to put down this book before it is finished.
