I have no idea what you're talking about, or why you're responding to me.

I take it that you are one of the Idiots I just mentioned. If you want to talk about Mythology let's talk about evolution

Or the Quran or the Bible -- both copied a lot of older Pagan mythology. The latter retreaded some Pagan holidays too. For evidence read Richard Dawkins book The God Delusion

Or see this very exhaustively documented website: Welcome to Enlightenment!

But I'd bet most are too chicken to read the evidence and find out they may have been bamboozled by old retreaded mythology.

You know you can't get a creationist to understand science.

They are afraid that learning something new will destroy their faith.

Kinda makes you wonder how strong their dogmatic beliefs are in the first place.

Is Lucy coming to Phoenix?

Thank you for that link and graphic. Is Lucy then Homo ergaster -- the link above Homo habilus just below Homo erectus and just below the branch leading to us?

Eventually various other missing pieces may be found to help fill the gaps. At least those gaps in our evolution are smaller and easier to explain than the big gap between Adam and the present (I've long wondered who Cain and Abel married if Adam and Eve were the first two people).

Lucy is currently classified as Australopithecus afarensis.

I posted the H. ergaster information in response to a request for a "missing link" (transitional).

Their sisters?

Mustn't confuse mythological dogma with biological evidence. I'll buy that bridge in Brooklyn -- at least it is real rather than some made up story without even old fossils like Lucy to back the story up.

I Don't know what this Means.

In one of the more bizarre moments in the history of televangelism, Benny Hinn's wife tells a crowd that they need a holy ghost enema , as she is pacing back and forth on the stage like a caged panther.

You can also find it on youtube.com
Benny; faith healer extraordinaire, and his wife Suzanne, spiritualist proctologist.

Why would this be so hard to believe. Eve was related to Adam in the first order since she was created directly from him, and considering that Adam lived to be 937, there was plenty of time to create an abundance of children.

Sarcasm is the lingua franca of the unreconstructed Satanist. It is something in which a warrior for Our Lord will never engage.

You are a laugh riot today. You ought to be writing for television. You have the over-the-top religious-whacko schtick down to a tee.

Oh BTW, real sources not disguised talk-orgins links.

Yes, if there was a website out there containing scientific information from reputable sources as diverse, well-organized and well-referenced as Talkorigins that contradicted my religious beliefs, I wouldn't want anyone using it in an argument against me either.

The answer is that Lucy's skeleton was found all in one place and the story about the "knee-joint being found far away" is a load of hoopla.
