Well considering that most humans, especially in under developed nations, can not swim. Also considering that people like myself, with high muscle to fat ratios, are not only none boyant but sink like a rock when movement is stopped, I'd say the theory that humanity is a long distance hunter bares more reality.

How strange. I have never met a human that did not have webbed fingers.

I do not believe that the little bit of skin stretched across the base of the fingers is considered webbing. That amount of skin is present in the feet/hands/paws of any number of non-aquatic animals. For example, compare the feet of ducks vs. chickens; by your definition, chickens have webbed feet, as they have as much skin at the base of their toes as we do. Most people would not consider chicken feet as webbed, however.

Despite my lack of publication I am really a sci-fi writer at heart.

So am I, and I am published, but only in the realm of science fact, not fiction. Although, to some people on this board, there is no difference.

Just too lazy to write hundreds of pages of useless filler (inter-personal interaction) to actually write a book.

Try writing a doctoral dissertation. Mine was 209 pages. I thought writing it was going to kill me. It makes an impressive looking book.

Is it blasphemy to suggest that the forms animals take is not fixed?

Do you think God/creation is an ideology and evolution is not some cult of scientology---Truth clear zone...brainwashed robots?

Trying to orbit the sun/science around an asteroid(evolution) too----space junk science!

Burqas and taliban---liberalism/evolution---mind/thought control.... science/socialpathy!

Actually, I did get an answer out of him:

I don't vote...even associate---think of your dumb party/questions!

Could be a watershed moment in his life!

Ah! Your world really is flat, and the sun goes around it, much as the Son revolves around only you...

I have read your posts...

Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.

Do you think I care what the Greek Orthodox Church, the Pope or Augustine has to say?

I get my information about life from the bible.

You may get your jollies from sitting on the fence, but God doesn't.

How long halt ye between two opinions?(1Kings 18:21)

Go Stavka and ask your evolution masters. Drink from their cup of deceit.

Trick yourself into believing that evolution and the word of God are compatible.

Go and muddy the waters again.....

You show me in Genisis where there is continental drift or dinasaurs or extinction

Stick to the question, my tossed to and fro friend...

You made the statement many posts ago, that evolution was God's way of making mankind.

Read Genesis for yourself.

NO EVOLUTION!!

Your masters weep.....yet they still rail on!

And you sit in darkness......

I'm sorry, what did you say: "blahblahblahblah Orthodox founding fathers wrote the Bible blahblahblah" Yup, something like that...something you fundies don't want to face or stomach. Our Church was established by Christ Himself and His appostales, your's by some guy who'd read the Bible once, maybe twice and decided he had the only real interpretation. Nothing like true human vanity at work, is there?

All this study proves is that recessive genes exist and that they can be brought out by selective breeding. I'm not surprised that the Talibatheists are trying to use it as some sort of "proof"!

Ummm..

Name me one that believed in evolution?

Our Church was established by Christ Himself and His appostales, your's by some guy who'd read the Bible once, maybe twice and decided he had the only real interpretation.

Boy Chirst was a real evolutionist, Stavka, really went around and taught the people about the missing link and all.

And Peter, James and John..?

Oh ya, they were digging up bones before it was cool.

And speaking of interpretation...

Still whating for that verse in Genesis were God tells us that he used evolution to create all things.

I would figure an Orthodox boy like yourself would have read Genesis and the Bible hundreds of times. And it would be easy for you to support your little idea with some scripture.

I mean thats what the Orthodox founding fathers did....

Yup, and Jesus taught about Black Holes and Gravity too. Apples and Oranges and you have no ground to stand on. That's the point. As for evolution, just like gravity, that theory wasn't around yet...but you know this and you just can't come up with a good arguement to disprove it...what ever, keep blahblahblah to yourself.
