In fact, I think the claim would be speculative and not a part of the ‘eonic model’, but the strange creative action of the eonic sequence shows a mysterious planetary design and has bestowed on homo sapiens a large portion of his cultural innovation. But the public is so confused by Darwinism that the evidence remains in exile. This kind of driver might be the mysterious form factor of directed evolution itself. And the eonic model with its distinction of system action and free agency shows how a directed process can coexist with free agency, a conceptual model lost on modern causal science. The Darwinian model is misleading and could trigger decline into a rogue species…
