Zdenek Burian is one of my favorite painters. He painted very vividly life of early hominids and also lots of the characters in his paintings were usually copied (or should I say stolen) by other artists in other books about evolution.
This one is our ancestors hunting Gigantopithecus

Grandpa teaching young people - those were the days
Thirsty ape like it's from "Space Odyssey"
I also like paintings of Jeff Gillette of slums devoured by garbage that is triumph of corporate greed and clearly something we're heading in.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
