if yopu think that we came from apes , in my opinion, you are deluded

darwin was argueing aginst his times , he wrote becuuse he felt that the belief in the creator god was simplistic and untrue.

it was a book against its times thats all it was not a basis for a belief system

Dragon,

Did u see the thing on dogs last nite where they bred the aggression out of foxes in 8 generations making them more 'dog like'. This is evolution on fast forward.

Just for now . ..

1. We don't come from apes - we share a common ancestor with apes.
2. If people aren't convinced of Darwinian science, that doesn't mean (ipso facto) they must believe in Adam and Eve.

think the theory is pretty well proven at this point, Richard Dawkins has written a book containing the best evidence for evolution. (The Greatest Show on Earth)

I read something a while ago that when questioned almost 50% of Americans believed that the earth was less than 10,000 years ago!!!

There are some mysteries still though, for example the huge leap ** sapian seemed to take, for tens of thousands of years there was little progress then all of a sudden we see incredible cave art and similar dramatic improvements in a relatively short period of time.

That has led to theories that our evolution was giving a helping hand maybe by life from another planet. If you read the book of Genesis it talks about the Nephilim these "giants" who were also called the "sons of god" other civilizations have similar myths that their ancestors came from the sky especially in Africa.

Dawkins books are all a good read apart from "The God Delusion". Carl Sagan is another good source on evolution in layman's terms. Try opening your eyes a little more.

2 very good points HH.

The Dragon 07 Jan 22:47

no it doesnt to think that one day a fish or whatever decided to get out of the sea and then eventually turned into **** sapien. im sorry its laughable


It is laughable yes. I don't think there are many who thought it happened "one day". It's also laughable that the first part of "**-sapiens" is censored and that you think "**-sapiens" is a plural from which the singular is created by leaving off the "s". It's not a plural. It takes the s.

Your thinking Fish into Man in one step, think more about why and how evolution works. Try and understand the subject before you knock it.
