I’m with the Creationists on that ape skulls are apes and human skulls are human. There is no evolution when it comes to transition species. They are apes or they are man, no inbetweens.

Oddly enough the outer ochre casings were found to be covered in boogers.

I have a few decades of knowledge and to a certain level expertise in the adhesives field. Most of our customers want to measure adhesive longevity in years or decades.

This is a great example of the power of adhesive bonding.

I’m of the opinion that ‘Neanderthals’ were just another ‘race’ and not a species, seeing that their genes are still circulating in the human genome. They did not ‘disappear’, they were subsumed into the modern human population..............

Yep. I forget how old Noah was at the time of the flood. I think around 400 years. IIRC. That gave him the opportunity to become expert in carpentry, veterinary, farming, ropemaking, sanitation, shipbuilding, prepping, metalworking, and so many other things necessary to sustain life on the planet. Adhesive science is just another. Plus God gave him the Pitch instruction.

I’m of the opinion Neanderthals were the result of genetic tampering by the fallen angels. This is covered in the books of Enoch, Giants and Jasher. This was the cause for the Flood to start with according to them. Sin has always been with man but this was tampering with the gene pool of Gods Creation and God put a stop to it and imprisoned these naughty angels.

Pine tar works I wonder when ancient man figured out hide glues and hoof adhesives. That would be interesting.

Like our advanced cultures, humans evolved in great leaps.

As a mechanic and fixer-upper, I wish there had been born a baby with an extra arm. (Maybe a long and skinny arm...)

I’d want to be in his lineage!

“I’m with the Creationists”

The creation is evolution. Adam was formed Adam Man and his descendants became the tribes of Abraham, the chosen people. The Bible is pretty clear on that.

There were people around before Adam, how they got here I have no idea but when Cain was banished who did he go to live amongst? To the Land of Nod which had people dwelling there and there is nothing written of Adam and Eve procreating entire populations to get a significant number of other Earth dwellers.

The ancients called these other populations “Beasts of the field” which was a generalized term.

Sometimes I wonder if the creationists have mentally fashioned some kind of magic wand God. Early churches controlled the narrative and screened information and tradition, literally re-educating the audience thereby changing faith and belief into dogma.

Certainly large numbers had not been invented for many thousands of years. The concept of extraordinary amounts of time was not conceptualized in early oral histories.

The rocks cry out! The evidence physically exists. It’s a glorious past which provides a natural path to our present day.

To be clear, yes we evolve in terms of adaption. Noah, our central stock, was probably mid-brown, and all variations of man came from this central stock.

What I mean is that Neanderthals, Denisovans, and others were men. They were other races of man, however we can define that term to account for more than just colour skin, but they were men.

If we could breed with them, they were men.
