BarrenPneuma: Carefully forgetting that Cain left his parents and got married in a distant land? His wife was most assuredly not his sister. Please do try to read the entire thing before you decide to rampantly debase the words of any book. I still Love ya though Al. You are persistent like a rash but I kinda like that itch, so do continue it just makes me stronger. Well as long as you don't get all negative and dream of your little lemming tribes, who I know you push off the freakin cliffs for their own good.
Ah...BP, you bring up the point that I always use to prove the Adam and Eve thing to be a parable (story), you know...that thing we're told growing up that the bible is full of? If Adam and Eve were the first people created, and thereby the only ones alive at that time...who were these other people in a distant land?
I agree with the genetic experiment theory, and that those ancestors are the ones originally referred to as Gods, which was later changed to "only one God", in the bible.
History, folks...it was originally plural. Constantine's Nicean council changed it to singular and voted that Christ was divine.
StressFree: Agreed about Sitchin's fantasies when he gets into the grey area. Word around campfire is that Nasa destroyed the probes or simply claimed that the probes were destroyed to hide some truths...supposedly.
well if they can kill kennedy, hiding some documents isn't beyond the realm of believablilty for sure.
Harleyquinn: Well there is Archeopteryx. Thought to be transitional between dinosaur to bird. No?
possibly, I'm not up on my dinosaur info (except for the clearly reptilian gov't influence LOL), but my assertion is that "half" species is a rather crude way of viewing evolution. Transitional certainly applies, it doesn't negate it's predecessor or its evolutionary step as half a species.
Evolution can just as evidentialy be proven/viewed as aberrations, so the arguement of 'half' or whole species is tenuous..paradoxical as well it just is what it is, all coming from the same molecular structure with different coding. At least thats my impression from what I've digested.

A monkey was sitting on the railroad tracks and fell asleep. The train came and cut off part of his tail. So he puts his head on the rail waiting for another train. But after a while he decided....."there ain't no need in loosing your head over a little piece of tail."

Little monkey was walking the gaurdrail of the train trestle. One of the other monkeys told him...."you better get down from there the train will suck you off" So the little monkey replied......"COME ON TRAIN!"

A man was hauling chickens. He looks back and chickens are all over the road. He stops and goes back and there is a monkey on the trailer. The little monkey was grabbing chickens one by one saying,"Put out or walk!" The chicken would say "squalk" the monkey threw it off and grabbed another one.

What is the obsession particularly within the christian religion, with the seperationism of humans from the world we live in. Why is it so offensive to think that we evolved from monkeys. We are animals, we are part of this planet, apelike creatures underneath our clothes and we definitely act in an animalistic way. Why is it so offensive to be descended from as "they" would put it, one of gods creatures. This has always struck me as being incredibly hypocritical, but then what can you expect.
atomant: I have a question relating to this topic.

Very good point.
A Universal creator will have created ALL life.
We think we're special. We are special, of course, like the Alien in 'Alien' - consuming everything in a humungous blood lust of destruction.
We've decided that (in Christianity at least) that only human beings have souls - and I think only a few animals can recognise themselves in a mirror which makes them slightly more 'dumb' than we are at least in some respects.
We also, conveniently, decided to have dominion over all other animals; that makes us less guilty gobbling up other life forms - after all we are at the top of most food chains.
Maybe God created whales or dolphins or elephants in His/Her image - maybe we should ask them what they think!
