Sept 24, 2009 The evolutionary story of human origins is often told like a cultural myth that is intuitively obvious. Humans emerged in Africa after their ancestors came down from the trees and walked upright. They began to hunt with stone tools and used fire. They migrated north out of Africa and populated Europe, overtaking the Neanderthals who lacked the brain power and culture of their more evolved cousins. How much of this story is based on actual evidence? How much is interpolation of what must have happened based on an evolutionary view of natural history?
As part of its celebration of the Darwin Bicentennial, PNAS invited a special series of papers on human evolution, called Out of Africa: Modern Human Origins. A careful reading of these papers reveals more gap than knowledge, more bluffing than evidence...

Ping!
God can evolve anything.
Teenagers are proof that evolution is impossible.
Yep, that’s what the evos keep claiming about Darwin’s puny natural selection god. Of course, the God of the Bible, the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth and everything in them, did it all in the space of a six normal Earth days (although, I have no doubt He could have done it in an instant if He had chosen to do so).
“Humans emerged in Africa after their ancestors came down from the trees and walked upright.”
Simply a lie.
LOL...I had never thought about that before, but I think you have a point!
Simple, to the point, and 100% accurate.
Funny you should mention that, Nebraska man will be the subject of my next post. I’ll ping you when it’s up.
All the best—GGG
THAT is ALWAYS the premise of prominent evolutionists.
ALWAYS.
When the fourth sentence of a story contains such an obvious scientific flaw it is difficult to continue to read, let alone accept anything that follows, especially when it contains only opinion and supposition.
There is no evidence to support that Neanderthals had inferior brains. Quite the contrary, Neanderthals had larger brains than Homo Sapiens both in total mass and in proportion to body size.
To track down the most distant links and draw a new pedigree of life needs characters that are almost universal: genes at work so deep within the cell as to resist almost all change and to retain clues about their earliest origin. A hunt for similarity through the dozen and more DNA sequences now known in all their detail, and the hundreds for which long segments have been worked out, reveals the very framework of existence. About a thousand genes are shared by every organism, however simple or complicated. Although their common ancestor must have lived more than a billion years ago, their shared structure can still be glimpsed. It shows how the grand plan of life has been modified through the course of evolution."
A back-handed way of characterizing anyone who doesn't believe in YEC as being an atheist.
According to evolutionists, God doesn’t exist.

If people believe in evolution, then they also believe that God doesn’t exist. I suppose you are left with a confused atheist. Never mind. I’ll never understand people like that or who they “think”.
You claim to understand them well enough to be making public pronouncements about what they believe.
According to some evolutionists, God created evolution.
Oh boy, another entertaining cretin thread!
“If people believe in evolution, then they also believe that God doesnt exist.”
Bifurcation
Black-and-White Fallacy
Either/Or Fallacy
False Dilemma
Reductio ad absurdum. The real argument that YEC types will not address is whether God would have created and then used a process such as evolution to bring life and man into a dynamic universe. To reject this possibility is to deny that God created the science, mathematics and laws that govern the universe.
