Why the hell do so many people have such a hard-on to find out and prove we came from Apes?
You all clap and eooooooo and ahhhhhhh over any old ass bone that only adds more questions to the age old mystery of "did we come from a monkeys stinky vagina?".
Why?.....WHY?
LOL you guys remind me of crazy religious nuts who crumble to the floor in a fetal position every time a peperoni looks like Jesus on a pizza.
I'll tell you one this if by chance I some how by total mistake discover I am a descendant of a god damn ape.....I'm keeping that in the closet.....
Some things are just to embarrassing for people to find out about.
Just because you embrace ignorance doesn't mean we all do.

That is the Holy Trinity. All three were active in the creation. One God, 3 persons.
"Elohim" is the Hebrew plural word meaning "goddesses and gods", or in simple form: "the gods".

Religious dogma has nothing to do with this thread, take it elsewhere.

Bare in mind that Noah was supposed to have lived for 900 or so years.
I think the Chinese counter parts lived in similar long life spans and believed in the judgement of individuals by these supernatural Gods/Emperors .
Science today is merely ----better tools and thousands of years of developmental evolution.
It's all good except for the bashers.

I mean really, why a monkey? What is this sick fascination, this ravenous hunger to discover a missing link to a God Damn ape?
Why not something cool like a lizard or a turtle, Dinosaurs even. It could be a theory just like the one that say we came from monkeys.....
But nooooo, every one will spend the rest of their lives hoping that tomorrow the missing link to a stupid monkey will be found.

I would beg to differ. People are trying to claim that this is "definitive proof" of evolution. What you're trying to do is keep people that believe in creation from responding. Religious texts are some of the very foundations of the creation theory.
Sorry, but you're not the dictator on who can and cannot respond to these evolution theories.

(mind neither of witch anger me as much as those people who see aliens in rocks on mars but that's a whole other rant.) Folks it's call a theory of evolution for a fact. The fact is is evolution is not a fact nor is proven it was it would be called the Law of evolution. It is all theory an Idea a concept if you will. This not to say it does not have a few facts with in much like the general theory of relativity has a few facts with it but as a whole is not proven. Allot of you seem to forget this. Also to note like those religious fanatics you so love to hate on you are fanatics yourself with the way go about saying bamf proof in your face.
Just like fighting over whose god is the right god that has gone on for centuries. Your fighting the same battle weather you want to admit or not. You trying to them they shouldn't believe this because of these set of facts and there telling you your wrong because of another.

I just wanted to point out that not every "religious type" is a creationist..... Not completely..
Personally I think we have found too many fossils that have been called "the missing link" that it's hard to tell if there is really enough evidence to back up the statement that this is the one....
Remember they thought it was a lemur at one point....

The one? Are you suggesting that there might be a pile of bones out there that would upon discovery end all the talk? BREAKING NEWS! THE MISSING LINK FOUND! You have to be specific when you talk about "missing links". You have to define them. You say "missing link between species A and B".

A few facts with it? It has everything going for it. There's nothing (absolutely nothing) going against it. You seemed to have forgotten this.
Yes, I am showing facts. They on the other hand are telling me I'm wrong because there's a book (there's usually a book). For example there's this one book that was put together by bunch of guys who got together and decided what was fact and what wasn't. I often wonder (not really) why they chose to include these texts that talked about some undead man-god hybrid thing over some other texts that lead the reader believe that there is no afterlife (or undead man-god hybrids), but lots of enlightenment instead.

I'm not going to argue it didn't happen or isn't happening right now. There are facts that support the theory of evolution it is still however a theory. It has opposition or else it would be a law of science like the law of motion or gravity. If it had absolutely nothing against it would be law and therefore proven.

You see there are these nifty little boards in the scientific community they decide what is science, what is acceptable science and what is fringe or pseudo science.
That same board is what decides what is scientific law and what is still theory. It deems evolution to theory and there for it has not reach the right amount of evidence to be proven as law. Truth being allot of it has do with the fact there competing versions of how certain evolutionary events happened and how some biological anomalies occur. There are still flaws that need to be worked out before the scientific community will give it's seal of approval to make it law. How ever you want to argue the facts it's still comes to yes you have those facts are awesome (I love the facts but then I don't deny evolution either) but its still a theory it isn't proven. When you go proven in your face and childish acts like makes question just how well evolution really worked out for us homo sapiens. That maybe just maybe the simplest of organism is the smartest not the most complicated one.
