Friday, May 29, 2009. Evolution - The Sexual Revolution. The advent of sex may not have begun with the first micro orgasm but, it was no less earth moving. In evolutionary terms, sex is more important than life itself. Sex fuels evolutionary change by adding variation to the gene pool. The powerful urge to pass our genes on to the next generation has likely changed the face of human culture in ways we are only now beginning to fully understand. Evolution – Why Sex.

http://cosmicvisions.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 29, 2009. What if the Cretaceous-Tertiary impact that ended the reign of the Dinosaurs never occurred? Would these magnificent creatures, which could only be described by superlatives, still be walking the Earth? Would these creatures have gone on to evolve intelligence and perhaps a technological civilization? Had dinosaurs survived, the world today would be very different.

Wednesday, June 3, 2009. Evolution - The Mind’s Big Bang. How and when the human mind emerged is the most profound question facing science today. The appearance of human sentience has transformed the landscape of our planet and has propelled evolution into realms which transcend the very limitations of genetics. What forces contributed to this breakthrough? Where might the power of the human mind and intellect ultimately lead humanity? Evolution - The Mind’s Big Bang. Posted by Alex Michael Bonnici.

Cosmic Visions: January 2009
http://cosmicvisions.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 6, 2009. The Secrets of the Star Disk. This is the extraordinary story of how a small metal disc is rewriting the epic saga of how civilisation first came to Europe, 3600 years ago. Meller went deep into the criminal underworld and, after a police sting, he got his disc. It depicted the sun, the moon and the stars. This suggested an understanding of the heavens greater than that of the first great civilisations, like Egypt. Could it possibly be real? Posted by Alex Michael Bonnici. Yet w...
