Let us regard the dominating historical discourse from the point of view of memetics. Memetics is a relatively new discipline that studies memes, the so-called "mind viruses", that can be defined in a less vividly metaphorical and more academic manner as cognitive or behavioural patterns that can be transmitted from one individual to another. They are called "the basic building blocks of our minds and culture, in the same way that genes are the basic building blocks of biological life". What this implies is that certain concepts of the world that we have and the opinions that we consider ours can replicate with a sufficient degree of copy-fidelity, "infecting" other people who shall naturally consider them a natural part of their discourse, and so on. Most of our most basic ideas of reality such as who we are, how we should behave, and what background we have, are received in exactly this manner. The latter is of a particular interest to us. What historical memes were we subject to from the time the very notion of history came into being? It appears that humanity as a whole is infected by a historical meme that is inveracious, or contains erroneous information. It was created by mediaeval chronologists for purposes that were political for the most part, and generated a wave of entropy which boosted its inveracity even further. Being a self-replicating entity, this meme eventually copied itself into the memetic field of every individual who had to study history in school. The entire humanity can thus be considered infected. We naturally bear a countless other memes, which can be compared to the harmless, useful or even vital bacteria that inhabit our environment or indeed our very bodies. However, the meme of falsified history that kept growing further out of proportion over the course of many years, infects us with a painfully elongated view of history -- many additional millennia which make the picture extremely unclear and hard to digest. Millenarian chronological shifts, duplicate phantom dynasties, and heavy layers of soporific, impenetrable and nonsensical data are the result. How do we know about this all? Well, the term "meme" was introduced by the Oxonian zoologist Richard Dawkins; as for exposing history for an eclectic collation of elaborate lies and true facts multiplied into utter confusion -- the honour belongs to the Russian mathematician Anatoly T. Fomenko who insists that "in the XVI-XVII centuries chronology was considered to be a subdivision of mathematics, prior to having gradually transformed into a field of historical studies considered complete in general, and only requiring minor eventual clarifications leaving the actual edifice of chronology intact. And yet we discover that the contemporary official version of the chronology of ancient history is full of gross contradictions and inconsistencies which deserve an attempt of partial clarification and rectification based on the methods of modern statistics at the very least". He isn't just saying all this, there is more than enough scientific evidence in support of his theories, no matter how improbable and far-fetched they may seem to our minds infected with the memes of consensual history. Can we say an antiviral solution has finally been found, that the plague of a false past that has been raging for so long may finally abate? It depends on how the meme of the New Chronology shall spread -- standing for statistical analysis, mathematical calculations and, first and foremost, common sense. If you're lucky enough to catch it, you'll be amazed at the sudden ease of understanding the history of our species; it has indeed been linear and a great deal shorter than whatever we had considered. Furthermore, new proof in favour of the abridged version of history shall begin to present it to you independently from what you may learn from the books of the brilliant Russian academician once the old meme is exorcised.

The following is the first part of a one-hour talk given by philosopher Daniel Dennett. In the talk Professor Dennett discusses Darwinian evolution from a philosophical point of view. In exploring evolution Professor Dennett also offers critique of creationism. Later in the talk professor Dennett discusses memetics and other related topics. Professor Dennett is a prominent and highly respected American philosopher from Tufts University, where his research centers on philosophy of mind, philosophy of science and philosophy of biology, particularly as those fields relate to evolutionary biology and cognitive science. Professor Dennett is a prolific writer, producing countless academic papers and articles, and both academic and "popular" books. His popular books include Consciousness Explained (1992); Freedom Evolves (2003); and, Darwin's Dangerous Idea: Evolution and the Meaning of life (1996)—which he draws on heavily for this talk. His most recent OUTSTADING book was, Breaking the Spell: Religion as a Natural Phenomenon (2006)—a "must read." Professor Dennett is an outspoken non-believer. He is a high profile atheist, active skeptic, prominent secular-humanist, and an indefatigable advocate of the "Brights." He is a true champion for the cause! It is my hope that Professor Dennett's lecture will be both interesting, AND also help equip my fellow rational atheists and secular humanists, with additional conversational ammunition for use in debate with our deluded Judeo-Christian-Islamic creationist foes. I will upload this talk in its entirety; however, due to YouTube© time restrictions, this talk will consist of eleven parts. For ease of viewing, I will upload each subsequent part as a video response to the previous. And, don't worry, subsequent parts in this series will not include this long introduction! ;) Enjoy the lecture and the enlightenment!
