What we evolved from.

You and me baby ain’t nuthin’ but mammals........
So instead of us evolving from monkeys, now they say
we evolved from “fuzzy little squirrel-like critters”???
“tease out”
Right.
Apparently, these mammals eventually “evolved” to the point where they were able to contrive an entirely fictional theory to explain their own existence.
And we measure the temperatures over 200 years and make assessment of apocalyptic change.
In this story the mention millions of years.
Anyone see a disconnect here?
*ping*
Well, now you have to remember that the Book DID get every detail right about the sequence of events.
They were a bit off in the length of time though: Kind of hard to count billions of years when 70 x 70 is your largest number. Powers of ten are hard when there is no zero yet.
Asteroid?!
I thought it was ciggies....
If you think evolution is fictional, I suggest you talk to whomever is in charge of infection control at your local hospital. :-)
Pre-monkeys.
That’s a red herring. Bacteria and viruses aren’t evolving into a different kind of creature, now are they? They’re merely reordering their existing genetic information in response to external stimuli, such as attacks by antibacterial or antiviral drugs. The information, or programming, is already existent inside the organism. They aren’t somehow developing new genetic information.
If evolution (to use the macro-evolution meaning of the word) is driven by survival advantages bestowed upon an organism by random mutations plus what evolutionists often refer to as the “need” for an organism to develop certain traits (as if matter somehow “knows” what it needs to do to survive), then I would expect there to be at least a few viruses or bacteria that would just grow arms and legs (because they “need” to) and walk into the research laboratories and pummel to death the researchers working on new antiviral and antibacterial strategies.
I’m kidding to make a point, of course, but that scenario isn’t much more absurd than what evolutionists actually believe.
“calamity and show that the surviving terrestrial mammalian and plant lineages rebounded with aplomb”
I just wanted to copy and paste all those big words.
Felt like . . . yeah . . .
That’s not what it is saying. During the Dinosaur era, mammals could not evolve larger because the dinosaurs were eating them. Only small rodent like creatures could survive the onslaught of the dinosaurs.
Once the dinosaurs were extinct thanks to that large asteroid, mammals began thriving, and gradually became larger and larger and apes became a reality.
Seems like ‘science’ lately is more about guesswork.
Guess how things occurred, and then find or fabricate the evidence and fill in the blanks.
Sort of like the way democrats do with impeachment.
As a mammal I DEMAND reparations from the specieist dinosaurs! I’ll take a billion on a cashier’s check.
Oh, the dinosaurs are extinct? Then we DEMAND reparations from Reptiles who are the greedy beneficiaries of the “dinosaur hegemony” over millions of years.
Dang I feel kinda...leftist.
So how did the asteroid know to only kill the dinosaurs but not the mammals.
Pretty fishy man...Oh wait...what about fish? How’d they survive?
There are two kinds of people; there are followers, who believe the stories they are told, and there are leaders, who see for themselves. I’m glad that the followers have religion to comfort them in their evolved state of submission, but I find it disconcerting that their religious leaders see and know the truth, and satiate their need for power by manipulating the faithful. It’s a sad state of affairs — I’m glad I’m on the outside looking in.
