Humans belong to the genus "homo" which has been around for 2.5m years: LINK
In english, "homo" are humans...with us being "modern human". So in short, he's correct, and you just showed once again that you don't really understand (human) evolution
go back and read where I wrote MODERN HUMANS. we're talking about us not another species, anything prior to 250,000 years ago is not the same species and you can't assume the same attributes to using tools. people can't just go around making things up like "it took humans a million years to stop just breaking big rocks for and axes". it devolves the discussion and if you support that then you are not here to learn you are here to stroke your ego.edit on 5-11-2011 by bottleslingguy because: (no reason given)
He wrote "humans", so why are you asking about modern humans pretending that's what he said? Like I said, scientifically speaking, the genus homo (aka humans in english) dates back 2.5m years. Modern humans only around 250,000 of course, but they are direct descendants of those older homo species. And the DNA link I posted proves that
But let's just continue to ignore facts, right?
The hilarious thing is, you even posted direct proof for evolution by posting that sponge link. If we are related to them on a DNA basis, that makes perfect sense given the theory of evolution. Biodiversity (and that includes humans and sponges) are perfectly explained for crying out loud.edit on 5-11-2011 by MrXYZ because: (no reason given)
We all breath air, we all have two eyes, two ears a nose, a mouth, and we are all water based, the DNA should be similliar.

Chances there is intelligent life that visits us. ya.
The bible even makes reference to god being a space alien. I doubt you have ever heard that but isn't it funny how it matches with sitchens idea, with von danikens idea, with Lloyd Pyes idea.
This is why I keep saying is everyone wrong, and your right?
I never made any claims about how our existance came into play, just how it came into play here on earth.
Aliens don't live on earth, this is why it's so hard to get proof, and even when they do get a lucky break there are to many people afraid to believe it.
Assuming your right and we started here on earth, there should be so much proof that we wouldn't be having this conversation. And there is no excuse for the lack of proof unlike aliens.
You can't start a race with two people, it's incest, A race has to start with hundreds or hundreds of thousands of people. Your trying to tell me that evolution happened to tens of thousands of people, over and over, in addition to us multplyng, but we just can't find the bones.
You wanna know how I know one of my fish died in the tank, there is a carcass laying in the rocks, WHERE ARE THE BODIES?

Which means we're all from this very planet, thank you, FINALLY!!! Every single life form on this planet is connected in some way because of common ancestry, and I'm happy you seem to agree
I think the problem here is we need to go to there doorstep to both prove or dissprove.
I don't know why you don't see this the same, no, to me it means there must be intervention of some type to connect them. Your trying to tell me that there is so much evolution going on that we are all related. Then I ask why is it so hard to locate it in the works?
Glad you seem to start grasping the concept of evolution now... We are missing it in action.

Well its clear why we have no proof of aliens. It's because when they do find something not from here, they simply call it an unknown because they have no way to prove it's alien. So the day we can knock on the aliens door and ask for a DNA sample for comparison, is the day we might accept the idea of an alien.

Some of the bones are difficult to identify or place, yes, but a large majority of them have very common-sense explanations and such.
Here is how I look at it.
Earth / over 5 million species and still counting.
Chances there is intelligent life that visits us. ya.
There is a possibility, yes.
I think your not realizing the magnatuide here. We have just over 5 million species on this planet. 5 million is a lot, a hell of a lot. So in my mind its not even a question if there is other life, its how much, and how many could visit us.
The bible even makes reference to god being a space alien. I doubt you have ever heard that but isn't it funny how it matches with sitchens idea, with von danikens idea, with Lloyd Pyes idea.

I've read the Book of Enki and I know about how Genesis sounds more like a science experiment by a bunch of different gods, but it's not proof in the slightest. It is well known that humans have a talent for writing fiction, even when they don't realize it is fiction (delusion, paranoia, etc.)
True but there are to many people involved in the making of the bible. My father was a detective and one thing he taught me aobut people is that people don't lie, the person lies.
Aliens don't live on earth, this is why it's so hard to get proof, and even when they do get a lucky break there are to many people afraid to believe it.
I welcome the day if aliens ever decide to visit, though I doubt they'd be impressed with the human race's retardation when it comes to self-government.
You have no idea how right you are look at this.. www.youtube.com... They were actually trying to make contact with us, but we were not ready to reply. One of the reasons you may not see the bible as a supernatural read (even though the preface introduces it as such) is because you don't have the 30 years studying these types of things like I do. I can totally see how you might miss things like crazy. For examply god can hear our thoughts and prayers is not magic, or imaginary friends its telepathy.
Assuming your right and we started here on earth, there should be so much proof that we wouldn't be having this conversation. And there is no excuse for the lack of proof unlike aliens.
There is proof. I showed you the intermediate skulls of adaptation from 2.5 million years ago to today. Check out the book, "The Ancestors' Tale," by Richard Dawkins. It goes into great detail and will clear up your questions. Warning, though. It's a thick book.
They found an entire civilization?
You can't start a race with two people, it's incest, A race has to start with hundreds or hundreds of thousands of people. Your trying to tell me that evolution happened to tens of thousands of people, over and over, in addition to us multplyng, but we just can't find the bones.

A race needs a diverse genetic pool in order to stay healthy, or it needs to have no chromosomal genetic diseases, which is almost impossible.
To answer your question, the bodies decomposed. Everything decomposes, and even rocks get eroded away. The only reason fossils survive is because an organism got trapped in a very particular environment with no biologic degradation. Then, slowly over time, moisture replaced the bone with calcium deposits. We have partially fossilized remains in our museums as well.
So yes. Evolution happened to hundreds of thousands of people, and the bones were re-integrated into nature through natural process. It can take a while yes, depending on the environment. Bones can last anywhere from ten years to thousands of years, but still, on the scale we're talking, hundreds of thousands and millions of years, there isn't even a slim chance of finding actual bones. Only fossils, which are extremely rare and take forever to form. Ok so I shouldn't be asking for a plethora of bones, but fossils.

4. Only using 10% of our brain, or at least 10% of it’s capability, means we are missing 90% of it’s function.
Heightened remaining senses. As just a small example we are the only species that has sex for enjoyment
In my over thirty years studying the supernatural and paranormal, I always thought it was odd that reports about other life that visits us, seems to always have special powers, and we don’t. Looking at this from the commonality of life, we appear to be missing some abilities.
There are multiple suggestions in the bible that also concur with us having ability’s removed from us, as a form of punishment. One of which is telepathy, and another called perceive. There might be others missing as well.
Vestigial organs are present in the human species, and could be part of some or our disabled ability’s.
The size of our head is not average by comparison to other life here on earth. In comparison to our body size, our head exceeds the compared percentage by anything else here on earth.
Lloyd Pye reveals DNA findings that could also support the idea of us having disabled powers. The first is that our DNA has been tampered with,
and the second is the inverted sections, the third is the dormant unrecognizable sections.

The first is that our DNA has been tampered with, and the second is the inverted sections, the third is the dormant unrecognizable sections. And just so you know his results in this was the LAST thing I looked up because I knew if someone did what I thought they did to us, there would be DNA to prove it. And I was shocked as hell to not only find tampering but all the other pieces that fit like a glove.
7. Heightened remaining senses. As just a small example we are the only species that has sex for enjoyment, but there are many more examples. There are many things about are existing senses that could be overly sensitive as a result of missing ability’s.
This could explain why our DNA says we are 200,000 years old while at the same time we seem to be missing the oodles of proof in fossils.

I don't believe Pye to be a fraud and I have yet to read anything convincing of such. I think it's only because it trumps evolution.edit on 5-11-2011 by itsthetooth because: sadfs
The child very likely suffered from untreated hydrocephalus, a mundane and simple explanation for the anomalies seen in the skull. DNA testing confirms, unsurprisingly, the child’s human ancestry.

How about the fact that detailed DNA testing at Yale showed that the skull merely had standard X and Y chromosomes and that it's 100% proven that both parents of the child's skull were human? So Pye's claims are 100% untrue and he's lying.
I really hope you're not going to ignore those facts

Oh, ok. I see what's going on now. You don't even understand what evolution is. Evolution IS adaption. It is a series of minor adaptions (or major adaptions) that become ingrained in the genetics of a creature over time. Maybe you're having difficulty placing these adaptions on a proper scale, but you've no doubt seen the minor changes that occur in people as they have children. Well, apply these tiny changes to a high infant mortality, and then think about the genes that will end up spreading. After a sufficient number of generations, it will appear that two separate people are a completely different species (though the reintroduction to other forms of human beings before speciation has caused our genetics to stay one species). I'm not talking about a minor number of generations either. I'm talking about hundreds of thousands of generations. It took humans a million years to stop just breaking big rocks for hand axes. Plus, biologists sometimes forget that the fossils we have are simply an adaptation of the time, one small picture of the available diversity which would fluctuate wildly. For all we know, the fossils find find may tend to be the equivalent of village idiots.
Point is, evolution is adaption, and adaption is evolution. One is on a micro scale and one is on a macro scale. To say otherwise is to show a complete ignorance of evolution at its most basic form.
