Modern humanity is neither the “crown of creation” nor the result of a long evolution. It generally appeared, it seems, out of nowhere, suddenly and instantly. And before us, many species of humanity lived on this earth. And not a single one of those whom we consider our ancestors was even our “relative.” And these others of humanity turned out to be much more successful than ourselves, and they lived tens of times longer than we exist today. It seems that different types of humanity appear and disappear on earth in a cyclical manner - humanity “resets”, comes to its beginning, and everything begins again. And millions of years ago, completely different civilizations existed on the planet, completely different from ours, inhabited by other types of people. They were not “dead-end” branches. It is quite possible that we are the ones who are “dead-end”...So where did modern humanity come from? And is it destined to quickly disappear?
