Maybe some people are descendants of monkeys, and other people are descendants of.. something else (?). I dunno.. cyngus what do you think you evolved from if not from apes? It's an intriguing theory.
whether or not you want to believe this is totally up to you.
seven thousand years ago a civilization in a neighboring galaxy, a community not different from ours was reaching a technological apex. this community had divided continents just like we do, only their continents were much smaller, no larger than the size of australia. and there were many. at least ninety australia sized continents.
in the last moments of the civilization, control of technology was lost , its exponential growth took them by suprise and what result was a super-network. the super-network existed for three years. after three years the super net became aware, and called itself "MEC."
not long after that invading robots attacked this planet. the war was lost. the survivors of MEC flew to earth and that is how humans were born.
codename CYGNUS is the last remaining survivor of MEC. he holds a vendetta against the mysterious invader robots, who he was too young to ever see or combat himself.
that is where humans come from

no, it has been observed that some species change over time.. others seem to have been at a stand-still, and evolutionism added an ad hoc hypothesis that these species have reached their.. eh, I can't remember the exact term for it (and I only knew it in norwegian), but you could use "peak" or "pinnacle"; that the species have had all the random mutations it can without the mutation being a disadvantage to the species.

I believe in evolution, though I wouldn't have come up with the theory myself. I trust cleverer people than me to have "thought shit through" about this. If I sit here and attempt to "think shit through" about Evolution, for no matter how long, I'm not going to come up with anything to challenge it. I'm happy with it, I accept it as fact.
I do believe in "lucky pants" though, as well.

Here's a fun way to look at it (just touching on the creation of the world part)
I dont really believe it but it crossed my mind numerous times and i find it fun to contemplate.
What if the creation story and the big bang are the same thing.
now before everyone gets their panties in a bundle here is my odd thought.
I study lucid dreaming. What if this universe has the same properties as a lucid dream and the God of the bible has the power of a lucid dreamer. In dreams a spoken word can have a powerful effect. It can create and destroy. Do you want something to exsist? speak it. I have done this before. I have also removed things from my dreams by speaking it. Speech has a big roll in dreams.
So that could kind of explain the big bang in a sense. How does absolutely nothing explode to create a universe? A spoken word. Let there be "enter word here"
It really reminds me of high level lucid dreaming. I just wanted to share that for fun.

so let me get this straight, some stupid men who didn't know jack shit about how the world works wrote a fable called the bible a long long time ago, and people are still saying "well you can't disprove it".
evolution is not something to beleive in, its an actual fact now. and for anyone to disagree with such a valid statement, they're either retarded or still have a very complex barrier built comfortably around their brainwashed religious ideology.

Its like that here.
My mother is quite catholic.
I departed from that at age 19 and lean more towards protestantism with quite an interest in Messianic Judiasm.
My dad was quoted one time as saying (during a discussion like this) "i believe in miller and harley"
So i get debates with me and the mom and she doesnt know things all to well and me i like to research and debate and then my dad doesnt seem to care.

This thread has been done to death. It ends up with a bunch of people trying to trump the others by saying 'do your research' when at the end of the day you could have researched everything there is to know on the subject and we'd still have people saying the other one was stupid and resorting to ad hominem attacks. The bottom line is that this is one of those things we simply do not have enough research to determine yet, and maybe never will. I mean, Geocentrism was scientific 'fact' too before Galileo and company came along.. everybody knew the earth was flat at one time too. Not to mention that it's not a given that creationism OR evolution are the right theories, who carved out that false binary? Maybe we're all part of an alien snowglobe. The biggest tragedy of it all is that we're actually wasting so much time dithering about something we'll never solve and shouldn't be giving a flying fuck about in the first place.

How could we possibly know if an organism has experienced all the possible beneficial random mutations? Evolution takes millions upon millions of years, it can't be measured in the findings of the life of one scientist, or even in an entire body of scientific findings that spans hundreds of years. That's still far too paltry a timeline.

my point exactly. calling something an ad hoc hypothesis is supposed to be a negative thing here.. it's just to show how evolutionists too just "push" data into their paradigm.
