[Ham]
And if you buy into Arlo's theory that "DNA-driven spawning of shared attention
at the social level" became "self-reflective" individual consciousness, I can
probably sell you a bridge in Brooklyn.

[Arlo]
What does Ham offer instead?

Are you going to answer my question now?

1. YOU claimed that at some point in the timeline "consciousness" did not
exist, then at some point it did.

2. What changed?

You've just, once again, claimed my answer to "what changed?" to be stupid. So
tell me yours.

Also, while we are at it.

1. YOU claimed "consciousness evolves from genus to species".

2. If it isn't physiologically passed on, and it isn't socially transmitted.
The HOW does it evolve over time? 

You've just, once again, claimed my answer to "how does it evolve" to be
stupid. So tell me yours.
