Is life consistent with the Laws of the Universe? Well, duh.

After 60 years of reading, mainly about life on earth mainly human, I have come to the conclusion that modern people don't fit.

If you look at life on earth over time it seems to follow a pattern: Things evolve to fit a nitch they stay in that nitch until something replaces them in that nitch. It does not seem to deviate from that pattern even among our supposed precursors.

Our supposed ancestors fit the former rather than the latter, we advanced more in the 10k years after the Younger Dryas than any creature that has inhabited this ever.
