Thermodynamic footprints

8. This is what I see

"I feel as though I can now stand at the very peak of human culture and look backwards all the way to the beginning of time in one seamless glance, using a single framework. "

When we last discussed this (where you inexplicably deleted all of your posts) I attempted to convey to you the fact that you were not, in fact, talking about Infrastructural Determinism (ID) as explained by Harris. You version of it is a compete corruption of the theoretical framework that Harris developed which lends the role of ID validity. Perhaps if your studies had included more applied anthropology and you'd acquired deeper understanding of how Harris' work is validated by observed cultural structures, you'd understand better how significant a deviation you are making from the actual theory.

CRH has made some excellent observations.
