Which Came First, Intelligence or Language?

The Bookshop Guru

Which came first, intelligence or language is the million dollar question and answer? The first hominid to walk upright plays a part in intelligence, and, or, language abilities, otherwise, other animals would have evolved intelligence, and we can define intelligence as the making of tools a precognitive choice of thinking ahead. You would then assume that language just developed from simple body language signs to vocal sounds eventually forming words that everyone in their community understood.

The spark of intelligence came when our ancestor went from just another hominid walking around 1.2 million years ago, to a human being the first time they started making tools. The process of thinking ahead was the dawn of man. But, why us, we are just another animal in the natural world? Essentially, nature took a divergent path never before seen in Darwin’s theory of evolution. So, why should this be, we are just an animal that we have decided to use the almighty word of “human” to describe our species?

Natural selection is based on selective and adaptive gene inheritance over time, a lot of time. Intelligence is alien to Darwin’s theory of evolution because intelligence exists outside the domain of nature (Natural Selection). Forget, about finding the missing links; concentrate on the logic of my argument. In simple terms, 1.2 million years ago our species started making a tool, now, that requires precognitive planning, and that is intelligence. But, this contradicts Darwin’s theory of evolution because it’s totally divergent for intelligence to emerge through natural selection; otherwise, it would occur randomly distributed throughout the animal kingdom. Time is linear and intelligence is spatial. That is probably why at the quantum level of physics an electron can be measured as being in two places at the same time seemingly alien to the general laws of physics.

The Biggest Apple iOS Blunder? Since, the Mouse Was Invented

The Bookshop Guru

Please help Apple, is there a Chinese software developer that can solve the biggest iOS blunder since the mouse was invented? Because the American Apple has turned sour, the American Apple software developers either have forgotten the plot or do not have the skills to solve the problem. And the problem is so fundamental that I believe Apple prefers to hide behind a new shiny Apple iPhone rather than fix the problem. 

The revolution of the iPhone hinged on the touch innovation, yet, it failed to follow the basic computer command of highlight and delete. If iPhone users have to spend their precious time individually deleting email because some moron or morons at Apple forgot to think, than perhaps they could be better employed picking apples on granny’s farm.  Read my previous article on this problem here.

The Million Dollar Question and Answer ( NFL Sunday Football Comic Diary)

The Bookshop Guru

The Dallas Cowboys face Seattle SeaHawks in Sunday’s live match. I fancy SS to win the game, the SS1 stands for Seriously Stressed One. Who invented the spread, the bookies, and the way they see it as a + or - 8 game? So, that probably means the SeaHawks will win, so make your choice.  I also fancy going under on total point line. That probably means I will lose my shirt and my shoes, just as well, I need new ones. Oh, well, the bookmaker has everything else, or do they?

Stonehenge the Enigma

The Bookshop Guru

Today, people will travel to Stonehenge to watch the sunrise over the gigantic stones of Stonehenge. The autumn equinox on the 23rd September marks the day when the day and night are equal length at all points on earth except the poles, after that the nights will get longer and the days shorter. The fascination with Stonehenge started for me when as a young boy my grandmother took me to see the historic site. Back then being able to walk around and touch the stones and sense the magic and appreciate the scale of the stones increased my thirst to understand the reasons why Stonehenge was built. We are still none the wiser. We do not know what culture and why Stonehenge was built? We can make assumptions and that is about it.


Stonehenge is a mystical place of mystery and it is where the solstices are celebrated. The giant stone circle has always fascinated me. I remember as a boy walking through and under the gigantic lintel which bridge two giant trilithon uprights which symbolise the image of megalithic Stonehenge. And thinking: Why was Stonehenge built? Questions such as ‘why are we here’ and ‘who are we,’ these thoughts resounded in my mind at the time and today is much the same.


Authors such as Erich Von Daniken and his book ‘the chariots of the gods’ have all inspired my interest in science fiction and history. As a young boy I was inspired by the words and voice of Carl Sagan who would talk about the cosmos and its wonders. I guess, I have always been a dreamer. A dreamer who thinks too much, but then who doesn’t like to dream. For in those dreams, we can dream the impossible without the burden of logic. A blurred logic is what sometimes creates new science. For me science fiction and the mystery surrounding the possibility of extraterrestrial life and all these other questions are still today, facets of my thinking.

If time travel was possible then going back to see the culture that created Stonehenge and finding out the reasons why would be a trip I would like to make. I would not be surprised if Stonehenge had more meaning to those who built it then we imagine today. The 2012 prophecy, the Mayan calendar and other mysteries from the past symbolise how time has a way of clouding the future and the past.
