Rev. Onan Canobite, SubGenius on Nostr: Higher-primate hands evolved to grip, point, punch, claw, dig, pick, and the like. ...
Higher-primate hands evolved to grip, point, punch, claw, dig, pick, and the like. And yet these higher-primate hands are also now pushing little buttons that make characters appear on a screen and go out on the internet. These hands were never "for" that but it's what they do.
I want you to think about the possibility that the gods didn't evolve our brains to "think," not in the way that you are thinking about thinking right now.
