Amazing piece. Got the wheels turning so bear with me as I rant some of my thoughts:
I am Jewish and a big thing in Judaism is that what separates all humans from animals is free will. Humans have it and animals do not.
One of MY thoughts (this is not Jewish doctrine) as it pertains to the Old Testament is that Adam & Eve may not have been the first humans in a physical sense of looking like a human, but were the first humans in that they were the first beings to have free will. Perhaps prior to the Deluge the majority of genetic humans actually lacked free will. Humans without free will (HWFW) were probably physically compatible with free will humans (FWH).
The light bulb of free will could have started being turned on more and more throughout the world as time went on where you have the FWH going from a small minority of genetic humans to a majority. Moreover, it's possible a HWFW could evolve within a lifetime to a FWH over time. That all said, could propaganda (as described by Kruptos) reverse this? Could a person go from being sentient person with the ability to make their own decisions to a flesh embodied machine able to be manipulated/directed so severely they become completely predictable by a complex algorithm?
Hope this makes sense and not just a rambling of an anon fan. Thanks again for publishing this series Kruptos.
