God did not cast us out from Eden we humans shamed ourselves out

MESA, Ariz. - May 2, 2025 - PRLog -- What, specifically, happened that threatens to bring down the spaceship, Planet Earth?

It wasn't much, really. Just an innocent mistake so innocent that it's hard to believe it has caused so much chaos and suffering. The situation that made the mistake possible came into being some two hundred thousand years ago when evolution gifted humans with the spoken word.

For most of those years, language served our species well. Our predecessors used it as an extension of body language to share feelings, communicate about the location of food, water, and other necessities, and make short-term arrangements, such as who was going to fix breakfast in the morning, or who was going to go on the hunt, the next afternoon.

If evolution had been monitoring the scene, it would have congratulated itself, for the success of its latest innovation. It might have commented, to itself, that after two hundred thousand years nothing bad had happened. So, its newest innovation the spoken word had proven itself fail-safe. I, too, join in congratulating evolution, although I must caution, "Don't rest too easily, Mr. Evolution. Not yet" because, after two hundred thousand years of unqualified success, evolution's language experiment took a
wrong turn.
