Peter and Rosemary Grant were able to observe evolutionary changes over a short period of time, some twenty years, only.
If such changes were observed over a relatively short period of time from changes in the environment, for example; the levels of food availability - can we also assume other effects will also cause biological changes?
The brain is no different from the beak of a finch in that it is biological, hence also impacted from environmental effects and governed by evolutionary change. If rationale and reason are functions of the brain to conceptualize ideas that aide in the pursuit of guiding ones actions, can we assume an environmental effect might alter ones reasoning abilities over long or even short periods of time?
If our ability to reason were continuously forced to accept the improbable and the irrational as fact, could we classify this as an environmental effect that might alter the brains ability to reason?
If generation after generation were forced to accept the improbable and irrational as fact, would we simply accept as fact the improbable and irrational in every aspect of our lives, guiding our rationale to accept anything the improbable and irrational might suggest?
We then find a line of 'cult evolution' has emerged over the many centuries of religious indoctrination and the acceptance of the improbable and irrational, thinking that has forced evolutionary changes in our brains and has pierced and affected every aspect of mankind's development.
Part of that development has lead to racism, bigotry, oppression and ignorance, to name a few, concepts not acceptable to reasoning and rationale, but concepts easily acceptable when cult evolution, fueled by the continued acceptance of the improbable and irrational, dominates the thinking process.
