Humans are still evolving...

The fact that we wear clothing has shaped our evolution. Things got a lot hairier before our ancestors started adding outerwear protection to their pelts. :)

im not going to spoon feed you something you can twist, but man can change his evolutionary path.

If man colonizes space due to the planet not being habitable, would definatly bring on a rapid change to the species.

remember for evolution 10,000 - 20,000 years would be a short time.


you have to look at homo erectus who lived for a million years with little change. His enviroment changed dramatically during that period but eventually something kicked and they evolved.

Right on....

As a species Man remained an animal....for a long time....and behaved like one.
Then came that experiment in the Garden....
and Adam and Eve got kicked out!

And you would then deny any influence of intelligence beyond human?

(I've seen some 'scientists' do a documentary recently.
And the whole thing was about ET intervention.
And anything not of this planet would be an ET?)

For those who understand evolution:

No we aren't going to grow an arm on our head.

Evolution is a change in allele frequency in the population.

Evolution is happening right now, in front of us.

who says we dont still behave like animals, still some primitive thinking and people still running around.

the garden??? I ask you if you think its possible for ancient hebrews creating a religion after 300 years of oral tradition might have got some of the sumerian myth about the first man adamu???? after all we some know ancient hebrews came from the sumerian culture bringing their myths with them.

and we know all men are not inbred from ancient hebrews, thats a fact.

You need to be a terrestrial from somewhere other than Earth to be an ET.
A "god" or a "spirit" or a "holy smoke" doesnt count as terrestrial.

Are you also making denial that intelligence...and the technology that comes form it...would be an influence into what you are?

Fire? fishhooks? clothing?...etc..etc...

Environment that we adapt to?...I think not.

Physical adaptation to one's environment at the genetic level?
Sure...If you can walk in the cold and eat your meat raw.

Otherwise....we are not the animals we once were.
And we are not going back.

As for the evidence...too bad you missed that documentary.
Lot of 'stuff' on this earth...with no apparent explanation.

Who needs a 'fairy tale' when you got pyramids?

What I'm saying is you can't show that an ET, be it an alien or a god, had any influence to our beginnings, evolution or lifestyle on this planet.

Sorry, none of this has anything to do with any supposed ET being(s)

And when gods and aliens are made to be the answer for that which we lack the answers for we call that special pleading.

So the scientist I watch ...making speculation....were wrong?
(wasn't my documentary or retelling of scripture.)

And even if discoveries were not handed down by ET...
What Man does by his hand is counted as evolution?...I think not.

I call it faith....in God.
