WHERE DID WE COME FROM?
Most intelligent people must have thought about the origin of humans and all the other creatures that exist on planet earth floating amongst the billions of stars and planets in the universe (s). They may have settled on a particular viewpoint, but remain open to other possibilities, which is an essential position to take. It would be interesting to learn the views of others who may reveal things that some of us had not considered.This is an opportunity to share your ideas. You may one day be proved right.
Maybe our ancestors originated on Mars, but left due to a nuclear war.
Maybe our planet was hit deliberately using meteors with all the necessary elements to seed life. Including DNA to define creatures characteristics.
Maybe we are monitored by extra terrestrial beings who adjusted our genetic code to improve the species.
Maybe certain individuals were given special knowledge to benefit society.

#2 ... An outside force (God) brought everything about.
#3 ... It's an Illusion/Delusion ...
Question then becomes who/what's creating the Illusion/having the Delusion.
Take your choice.
Discovery of laws of thermodynamics ruled this out ... It's no longer an option.
He forgets that Eve was made from Adam so how does that effect the DNA and the offspring? Wouldn't the offspring all be non-binary?
The Bible says that Eve was specially created by God. There is no hint of any type of evolution occurring here. As was true with the making of Adam, Eve was directly created by God.
Were Adam and Eve Neanderthals or Denisovans? Where did homo sapiens come from? Why did they have a superior brain? Were they a modification of the previous races? Was brain change evolutionary? If so, it happened very quickly. Too quickly. Maybe outside interference from superior beings created genetic change.

The brains of Neanderthals were as large, or slightly larger, than those of "Modern" Man.
It's been said that they were bigger (though shorter) stronger and smarter than today's Humans.
Neanderthals were a variation on the Human kind.
Want to know where they went?
If you're not pure Sub Saharan African, look in a mirror.
Other than black folks, Neanderthal DNA has been identified in every people group ... Especially those from a specific area of Italy.
Yes, many people have some neanderthal genes. That was due to inter breeding when Homs sapiens appeared. But I don't believe Neanderthals had larger brains. And they were inferior in intelligence to humans. That's why they gradually disappeared. We took over. According to religious accounts, the great flood destroyed civilization except for Noah and his passengers. Humans and animals. But there are accounts from all over the world of a great flood and a warning given to certain characters, so Noah was not the only one to escape.
They engaged in many practices associated with modern man, including music ... recreations of their instruments show a preference for minor keys.
"Intelligence" is kinda subjective.
As modern man is making the assessment, we may have a bias against those different from us.
Strong Evidence of Neanderthal intelligence ...
They existed in a time/place of extreme cold.
In a harshly challenging environment, "stupid" would be inconsistent with survival of the fitest and keeping oneself in the gene pool.

The issue or problem to consider under the Hebrew texts which forms the old testament of such, one needs to compare other texts from other cultures such as the Mesopotamian, Babylonian,Sumerians, and Akkadian. These other cultures speak about plural dieties along with Egyptian Greek Roman etc. Only the Hebrew texts speak of one God and the Genesis story.
Yet, it is suggested the Hebrew texts was borrowed from the Sumerian Babylonian and the overall consensus from Sumer and Babylonia they all came from Extraterrestrial Gods.
To consider that why every other culture aside Judea Christian ideals they all believe in a pantheon of gods.
Only Judaism and Christian believe in one God.
In Genesis 6 God speaks to undocumented host of entities "Let us make man in our image in our likeness"
When God saw how people of the earth were of one tongue one culture with perhaps one goal to serve the gods. They were attempting to build a name for themselves lest they be scattered it was interpreted as a tower. Hence, known as the tower of Babel.
However, under the Sumerian and Babylonian context a name was a rocket.
A rocket to reach heaven to be with the gods.
When God saw this his response was Behold man has become like one of us, Let us go down and confound their language.
This was the start of different languages as people were scattered and lost contact of their original language. They learned to adapt to environmental conditions and basically had to start over.
Then when God saw how people were behaving once again he regretted making man because they were just not evolving according to his liking.
Yet, a little less known story from the sumerian texts about the shifting of the earth which caused the flood of Noah.
Hence, here is where civilization at that time was destroyed or disrupted once again.
Noah which is known by Sumer Mesopotamian texts is because he was a Mesopotamian.
So, God tells Noah and his family to build an Ark or boat to spare the animals and his family and so, once again the human race started over by Noah and his 3 sons and their wives.
Everyone should know the rest of that tale. In essence the current human culture was evolved through Noah and his family. Followed by Abraham who was the great great grandson of Noah.
Both the Arab and Jewish cultures recognize Abraham as the father of both nations.
And if the occupants of the Ark were to create the new inhabitants of the earth, then they would have a formidable task to come up with diversification of humans. Other religions have similar story to survive the flood.
Reason for flood, either warming of planet after ice age, or god's intervention, or according to Enoch, the fallen angels who refused to return to their celestial home after mixing with earthly women. Take your pick here.
The Hydroplate Theory addresses the issue of Remarkably (Implausibly?) Earth-like substances being found in meteorites.
Was there a creator? Was there a plan for our existence, or are we an experiment?
Did we just happen?
Does any superior intelligence care about our welfare?
We have the advantage of looking at history and how things have developed. Does that indicate anything?
Check out those skulls, y'all!
I mean ... Dayum!!
Perhaps the idea that he was crying out to all of the Extraterrestrial Gods in the hope to be saved.
To consider most all archeological sites such as the obvious pyramids in Egypt and Central America the Nasca lines in Peru the glyphs in England were built so large to be seen from the sky.
Many sanskrit writings along with Mayan and Aztec codexes all spoke about gods flying in spaceships.
Most all archeological sites were built of stone that was cut symetrically and dragged miles into a clearing that often was precisely aligned to the stars.
That couldnt have come solely by the technology of the average stone age cave man.
Was this a fight for control over this planet by superior technological forces? Were the fallen angels a force that decided to remain in control but then incurred the rath of their leader? The book of Enoch which was edited out of modern bibles was an account that wasn't enjoyed by senior church leaders.
The story of Goliath appears to suggest giants were around( Nephilhims).
Elongated skull represented by a certain Egyptian Pharaoh together with unusual shaped body suggest possible extra terrestrial individual.
Organic molecules have been found in asteroids. So, the initial building blocks of life were there to seed life on earth.
Read it in that Context and it makes Lots more sense than calling out to Space Aliens/Ancient Alien "gods".

Every Syrian hamster alive today descends from a single brother-sister pairing
Yet - how can members of a single species look so different - I will consult with my chihuahua and my St Bernard and get back to you on that
The Adam and Eve thing, most intelligent people understand that bible stories weren't initially written down - the oldest text found is under 3000 years old. Back when hardly anyone could read or write, stories which caught the fancy, were easily remembered, and could be passed on, lasted longest. Taking the bible as literal is - well, no point going there. You know what, there probably wasn't a snake, either
The only theory that really resonates with me is that Earth was the penal colony for an advanced race elsewhere in the galaxy and we are today the result of the transported rejects which interbred with the local dominant species around at the time. We have the brilliance of our spacefaring ancestors well mixed with the flawed genes of being the misfits, and a genetic injection from the interbreeding.
There's actual thought in that answer, looking forward to seeing which tube shoots it down fastest without a second's reflection ... .

We all can - and Do - adopt a Worldview, religious or otherwise, and view the world from that perspective.
To each his/her own.
When you look at all other creatures around us that possess brains that never develope beyond, eat, drink, escape preditors, reproduce. Even apes that have human like bodies, never change. Why were we given a superior intelligence? Just luck, a freak event or for a purpose?

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

Conflict between gods in various religions exists. Hindu writings talk of battles in the sky, and even describe flying craft plus many different weapons.

Thanks for posting the video. It summarises the UFO situation over history and the connection with ancient gods, or humanoids, and the misrepresentation by ancient civilisations. It also highlights the government cover ups to this day. The Roswell incident to name just one. The Mexico incident of 1991, and the Washington DC. sightings.
Interesting that the Mexico sightings by many people, plus photos, was not reported in western news.
It is also worthy of noting NASA'S early attitude of not to report any UFO encounters.
Care more about where you are going after this short time living here.
Eternity is a very looooooooog time!
Your choice where you spent it.............................jenny
Your choice.
And the whole thing becomes akin to "How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?"
