This is how you understand that to have happened? That our body hair essentially fled in preparation - so that the goal of language could be accomplished?
(of course everything mentioned falls under the category of "human being really thinks human beings are awesome" btw)
I don't mind off topic subthreads.
It was something I remember from a biology video on evolution. I didn't quite get the connection at the time and I'll gladly retract it and replace it with how we developed the ability for sophisticated chattering sounds that we formed into language. This has been an important feature in our evolution, since communication is what has enabled us to exchange ideas, invent and cobble together our civilization.
And it's not just human beings either, I should imagine. I would expect to find, if the deist model of the universe is true, that there are many other such projects in the universe.
