Oceania had always been at war with Anatolia!
Scientific evidence why evolution could not possibly be true:

Man did not evolve from apes. If he did then why would apes even still exist? In any case it is godless nonsense.
” dispersing into Africa, probably as a consequence of changing environments and diminishing forests,”
Oh nooooo. Global Warming is due to gasoline cars, they must be wrong.
it challenges nothing, except unstable minds
Amen! God designed us mortals all the way back to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden!
What the h__ is a Turkiye?
They found LeBraun’s family tree
Evolution takes a whole lot more faith than Creation.
I believe it with one race only... either that or way back when there was a lot of sexual intercourse between african natives and primates. looking at some like Oprah, there is too much resemblance to ignore!!
That explains where Nancy Pelosi and Anthony Fauci came from.
“Man did not evolve from apes. If he did then why would apes even still exist? In any case it is godless nonsense.”
We humans are primates, as are monkeys. And our closest relatives in that evolution are chimpanzees and bonobos (going waaaaaay back). And we have a common ancestor.
However, the ancestors of Man (Homo Sapien) diverged from the ancestors of other primates over time. So, we are more closely related to chimps and bonobos than we are to other primates, though we are more closely related to chimps, from whom we diverged some six million years ago.
The DNA sequence between chimps and humans is almost 99% identical.
That does not discredit Genesis. Rather, it puts time into perspective. Hence, evolution.
“Scientists have been pushing the Out of Africa thesis a bit much. They wanted it to be true.”
No, they didn’t WANT it to be true; rather, they had to work up a theory based upon the oldest fossils found.
Genesis was written by many humans that may not have even know what a chimpanzee was. It’s just vague enough unlike most mythologies to last, but it has no bearing on the reality of animals or creation.
“Oceania had always been at war with Anatolia!”
Well, sure! Anatolia started it!
“Genesis was written by many humans...”
It was indeed.
“...that may not have even know what a chimpanzee was.”
That’s possible.
“It’s just vague enough unlike most mythologies to last, but it has no bearing on the reality of animals or creation.”
I view Genesis in an evolutionary sense...which is not really different from a creationist sense. God created Life, and Life evolved. And one of the evolutions became Man.
Where Genesis goes astray, though, is that it ignores the natural process of evolution; and begins at the LATEST period in the process, and not at the beginning. But that is not the fault of those who wrote Genesis, as they could only write about what was immediately known or observant to them at the time.
They’d have no more chance of guessing the early evolution of life than Galileo would to predict the Higgs bisons properties. They were just making things up based on their old oral traditions. The American Indian spirit studf is really just aa valid. Ie not at all. There’s nothing to be gained with creationism.
Liberals look at an ape and say “that is my ancestor!” Conservatives look at an ape and say “that is a liberal”
