Physical and Intellectual mechanical interbreeding

 

 Physical and Intellectual mechanical interbreeding

I stumbled into a PBS feature on 'First Peoples'. This time it was Asia. 

As the general migration went out to "discover" the world they found circa 100k-110k years ago other non-homo sapiens species. Unlike what we were taught of those other species dying out, they live on through us!

Archeologist and geologist discovered that Neanderthals, latter-day Homo-Erectus, and Desai specie had DNA-genes that exist today in 20% of today's 7Bn people. Their genes play a dominant genetic role in the present human specie vitality, than the adverse negative role we might wrongly suspect. Those who by chance have a mixture of those genes have physiologists that are more resilient in more extreme conditions,

One can extrapolate from that  the cognitve evolutionary cross-fertilization of millenias worth of such intensive interaction between different forms that are kinetically meshing. Purists would decry such miscegenation for the corrupting of the physical bloodlines and as a result, the cultural perspective. From that purist perspective, that is so.

As the neolithic cultures did with the botany and the domestication of animals, there was a benefit to such interbreeding. Culturally, the Jews as outsiders and strangers in their different diasporas over the centuries, became the involuntary cognitive inter-breeders [since any cultural, let alone intimate physical contact would have deadly repercussions] of cultural ways and needs. That gained knowledge, combined with the prohibition and sanctions against the Jews for any societal or culturally integrative roles, restricted them as outside intermediaries between chauvinistic and narrowly myopic cultural prejudices. The Jews, cognitively familiar with the logistical needs and surpluses of these ethnocentric and chauvinist cultures, became the default intermediary suppliers of goods and currencies between those insular, hermited cultures.

Now resentful conspiracies against the Jewish population in general for the small percentage of their midst who carry on the now highly profitable role of material intermediaries, is an ironic sour grapes to their own initiated prejudices that helped develop the skills and intellect of observation and qualifying quantification which the Jews mastered in their ostracization by the prejudice of today's equally resentfully still chauvinistic, insular and intellectually, as well as genetically incestuous cultures.
