Enjoy, this is the weekly digest topic ping.

In my view, there is no such thing as a hominoid. They are all either human or ape.

I don’t believe this out of Africa BS. It is just too racially convenient. Humans originated in SE Asia and maybe some came out of Africa.

Not to be confused with one of two or more words that have the same sound and often the same spelling but differ in meaning.

The Bible says Adam and Eve originated in Iraq, which is where Eden is said to have been located.

Of course, Noah's clan spread out from Turkey.

The Bible says Adam and Eve originated in Iraq,

Where does it say that?

Are you referring to this?

Interesting arguments...but they do not account for the ages referred to in this article. Too recent...

[dennisw]

Your book might be good.
You know the racial situation today with all its anti-colonialism and anti-whiteness. Its elevation of all matters black and indigenous. This make me reject Out Of Africa theories. They are too cute, too politically correct.
See the Robert Sepehr video I posted that covers this.

I read that as arachnid hominins.

[Openurmind]

What I find fascinating and important is that they could “Float” that far back.

[Uversabound]

Please read The Urantia Book will explain this exactly. ❤️

I’m hip, studied it a lot. I actually believe we are indeed biologically engineered. It just makes too much sense when you figure in the time scales and the biological advancements step by step. I think it was done incrementally in stages several tens of thousands of years apart. I think Homo Erectus was the first stage... Then came the next stage the Urantia describes a half million years ago, then the next, until the final product Sapien Sapien was achieved.

They are all either human or ape.

All hominins are hominoids, but not all hominoids are hominins.

[mewzilla]

Punctuated Equilibrium, anyone...?

FWIW, I think of human evolution as more of crap shoot, lots of losing rolls of the dice until God's creation threw boxcars.

[PIF]

I’m holding out for the origin to be Antarctica when it was ice free.

[Bob434]

Hopefully the thread doesn’t turn into ad hominids attacks

[Openurmind]

I think we evolved at all. It think we were created in stages small DNA changes at each installment. But each installment would have to be allowed to prove it’s self for a couple hundred thousand years to weed out the weak and make the previous strain stronger and ready for the next installment. It fits... One species ends and another pops up slightly more biologically advanced at the same time, then repeat, then repeat.

They didn’t evolve along side each other simultaneously like they should have like Canine species and others. A new biologically dominant species always replaced the older one. And they have always had trouble explaining why this is. Why they each remained biologically the same for tens of thousands of years and then almost overnight they are replaced and go extinct. If this is true, it then begs the question who did this engineering?

I now believe the Sumerians were right... And the same concept is supported by almost every origin story in the world except Christianity.
