"The original bigfoot is Cain from the Bible. His mark given to him from God was the hair all over his body and he would wander the Earth for eternity."

Thanks for your input, but according to the Bible, God put a mark on Cain so that no one would kill him to avenge Able. He married and had children. He build a city that he named after his son Enoch (not the one who was translated) and his cildren were cattle herders, metal workers and muscians. Although his death isn't recorded, he must have died before the flood, since he was born before Methuselah. The Bible doesn't say what sort of mark God gave him.
Some people think Esau was a BF because he was a hairy man (red hair), but I think he was a man.
The only thing I see in the Bible that might allude to a BF are the "beasts of the desert. " They live in remote locations and are rarely seen by man. The only named beast that may be a BF is the satyr, but is purely my own conjecture and I wouldn't defend it with any degree of confidence.

I suspect that he has a language. Is it one that we'll necessarily understand? That's the question...

When I encountered Sasquatch, obviously, I didn't chat with it. But the feeling I got was intelligence of a high level... Seems language goes with that. But I'm not enough of a anthropologist/linguist to be sure at all...

Thanks Seagull, I read the whole thing and lieft some comments on the thread over there.
I will be heading out Saturday. Am I brave or stupid? It's going to be the coldest day I've seen around here. It's going to be 9 degrees. Not good in FL. I have an idea. Any of you squatchers are welcome to steal it. I'm taking an Indian flute and will just sit around a campfire and play it. Many BFers report they can mimic sound. Maybe they will sing to me - if I am not a popsicle and they aren't hunkered down in a cave laughing at the dumb human sitting out in the cold.

If it speaks anything it's probably just a series of pointing and grunting.

Of course Bigfoot can speak. He told me so. His favourite words include " UGGGHHHHHHH", " AGGGHHHHHH" and " MMMBBPHHHHH ( Used when throwing large objects at campers).

Don't mock Bigfoot. He deserves so much better.
