One has to ask - could a person espouse the Marxist view and tolerate creationism?

Christian Socialism was very popular in America and elsewhere throughout the 19th century. Ever heard of Liberation Theology? Dialectical theory predates Marx goiing back to Hegel and Kant.

Oh, please, that is my point

For almost 50 or 60 years now all we heard is there was no time because society wasn’t evolved enough

now, we just added 400,000 years!

Development?

EVIDENCE?

it doesn’t exist.

Genesis 1:1

Gee, and I thought there was no dissent among evolutionists about the ToE.

Dissent happens when they can't agree on whose fakes should make the cut.

Wouldn't that throw a monkey wrench in their theory?

Speaking of German Darwinians and monkey wrenches, have you read about Prof Reiner Protsch von Zieten?... ""It's deeply embarrassing. Of course the university feels very bad about this," [said] Professor Ulrich Brandt, who led the investigation into Prof Protsch's activities..."

While I disagree with your theory of origins, I have to give you points for your tagline.

The idea that mankind could exist with intelligence for a hundred thousand years without developing language, culture, and technology seems add odds with what we observe of man today.

Exactly! Somebody should be funding you, we'd get more common sense for our tax dollars.

I think there were two one before the great worldwide catastrophe around 12,000 to 10,000 years ago (some places a flood and earthquakes and volcanoes in other places) and the other after the catastrophe. All mankind did not settle, the best estimate is four or five sets of people started civilization after the catastrophe in the Middle East, Egypt, India, China and South America. These civilizations were far ahead of anyone else on the planet. Could be help from the ABs.

I thank you kindly. But it will take more than that to carry me through eternity.

"Could be help from the ABs."

You sound like a multiregionalist (like me). What is an AB?

Our earliest ancestors gave up hunter-gathering and BEGAN TAKING UP a settled life up to 400,000 years earlier than previously thought, according to controversial research.

...there, fixed it.

A good post, blam, even though it appears the thread is being hijacked.

My take on this is that I don't think evidence of settlement is inconsistent with a hunter-gatherer culture. Why not settle down for a while if the hunting and growing food are plentiful?

Gotcha. Evolution = Communism. Right.

Islamists believe in young earth creation as well.

Wasn’t this thread about anthropolgy at some point?

Remember this is homo erectus, though. Not QUITE homo sapiens sapiens, thus it’s quite possible homo erectus’ expected timeline of technological and cultural advancement was a lot longer (slower) while sapiens sapiens is quite short.

Nonsense. This is the pinnacle of human evolution.

Homo perfectus. Just consider yourself lucky to be able to make her your leader next year.
