Bam. Logical fallacy right in the second sentence. If you're going to claim that consciousness started in one-celled organisms, then you're going to have to define consciousness, and then give evidence that it existed in one-celled organisms. Until then, the rest of your argument rests on an unproven assertion and is therefore TL;DR.
