Ah, you are one of them, eh?

Let me ask you something.

Do you think we care what your beliefs are?

The fact that you are asking him means that, technically, yes, you do care, because you are engaging in conversation as opposed to leaving it be.

And that's what you should have led with. Now, full disclosure, normally I'd be fully and openly on your side in this regard. But I've had a good week, blew up at a conspiracy theorist, got a clear on the cancer screening, so I'm less inclined to say to him "That belief is ridiculous" etc etc and more "No need for this right now" to everyone else.

without going into the sources of people wether you believe ins omething or not. but what i do see is that on all sides people ridicule the other. i don't want to be apart of that.

it is of great importance to just research everything.

i could even go as far as:

as a surfer i had fights over waves. localists would say their our waves
as a skater we'd have to hate inliners
as a muslim i must hate other believes
as a christian i must hate other believes
as a ape believer i must hate none believers of the theory
as an atheist i hate all believes
as a believer i hate atheist

all that you read above i dont want to be a part of that. it's too simple . and who says your not wrong or im not wrong. people believe in a god they never saw
people believe their from apes cause someone made a theory and tried to back it up with things but we never saw an ape make another human.
people say adam and eves kids must have be incestious. well maybe we miss a lot of information about adam and eve
people say were from apes. maybe muslims do believe that ape man existed but not in the same sense as darwin and those that came after him

in any way regardless im just a very neutral and overly sceptic character

just nice to share google this

أصحاب السبت

google it. copy paste it. it means the people of saturday
they were ape man and pigs roaminbg the earth.

another perhaps very silly science researche is that we came from ape and pigs
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2515969/Humans-evolved-female-chimpanzee-mated-pig-Extraordinary-claim-American-geneticist.html

well dont think of the pig today or the ape of today. of an early species that was in the same bloodline of ape.


what im trying to say is. keep the possibilities open to whatever. oits not in our interest to be so quick in judging the other. hope you feel me

and at the very last regardless of what we believe we can certainly enjoy this game. even as a consumler its also in the best interest of the developers to have guys like me playing it.
very nice game :)

pls dont hate

This is a good example of why many people don't like the religious.

We're not descended from apes.
We share an ancestor with apes.
In fact we also share an ancestor with mice, whales, fish and probably even trees.

hey cola just to raise a question could it be that not all humans come from apes.?

From a genetic point of view: the chance of getting 3.6 billion basepairs that are 99% identical from two separate lineages by chance are infinitesmally small.

i would certainly agree with you in that context. just based on calculation.

theres still other theories that people see as facts. theres the devide of evolution and devolution

could it be that we man that pig and ape devolved out of human species?
and if so could that devolving species sometimes get a human again

this is really bizarre to mention since its a big laugh for those that follow the theory blindly. but the real scientist did actually put this all on table
Cola Nov 6, 2020 @ 5:06am 
I am also a real scientist, don't take everything we say as the truth because we are scientists, look at the supporting evidence.

But to rephrase the devolution theory:

Say you take an empty planet, and put a few humans on it, is it possible that their descendants eventually turn into pigs?

My answer would be yes, they could turn into something that looks like a pig, if the genome was able to mutate over time, and if there is a niche in the environment that favors pig-like creatures.

But it would take a very long time, and at the same time, what would happen to the humans? Wouldn't they also change into something that is different from the original human (and better adapted to the conditions)?

It would be kind of weird if throughout the ages the human genome stayed constant, while those of the pigs/apes/monkeys/whales to-be offspring were able to change.

In practice we see the human genome mutating between generations, with mostly unimportant changes, but sometimes they make a real difference (usually for the worse though).
Cola Nov 6, 2020 @ 5:11am 
Maybe it's also good to mention that evolution does not mean that animals get more human-like (ie. smarter and more sophisticated or wharever) over time, they become more adapted to their environment. In many environments pigs are better adapted than humans, so in a case where humans were placed in an environment like that, devolution and evolution lead to the same result.

You do know that genetic testing (the kind you can rely on to prove your parents are your parents) has genetically proved you are related to that monkey in the zoo?

To summarise: if you took the monkey into court and told them you disputed your ancestry, the jury would find in favour of the monkey.

theres a lot of room in that. i know a blond dude who has been doing this and they said he came from africa

according to this game apes came from africa

however the fact is

first human is from hindustan. debatable but some say sri lanka is where life started

and the first civilization is from mesopotamia

so i mean where does the african thing hold when its clear that africans are the descendants of massraym and even earlier ham? these bloodlines are facts and are also in the data.

some countries dont do this anymore but i can go to the city house and askk my tree and it will go pretty demln far.

yes this dna could lead to any race but its not really a matter

i dont wanna go around the kettle. so ill get to what you say. its proven by dna that wa are from apes
but so can we from pigs. pigs anatomy is almost precise as man. hence why when you eat it and its sick it gets in your body like a troyan horse cause your body does not get warnings when it eats it.

the ape has a simplified inteligence of Man. so you i get why people go into that were from apes. but i dont believe we are originally. at least not the way darwin described it

worth to mention
darwin was a real devouted christian. so its pretty silly when people say that religion is the problem. man has always been a problem we fight over every thing even over waves or cities or ideologies or cities or politics or even freaking football or soccer. ive said a lot of offtopic stuff and excuse me for that but at least i told you what i think of that dna thing
