I'lk watch the Nat Geo doco later but can't on my phone. I'll also check out the other video but just the look at what they're wearing seems to indicate it's decades old making me wonder if it's related to the claim of the ark being found years ago. You know the one where a few people came forward later saying that they had forged the artifacts and evidence..b

So is blondie a more subtle troll/poe or the real, batshit believing real deal?

The latter is way more fun. Way!

It has been explained to you in many, many posts now why this is wrong and you keep saying the same thing. This clear evidence that you have no interest in learning or listening to what other people say.

How many times now have people told you have humans did not evolve from monkeys but both evolved from a common ancestor?

You do not explain why monkeys and gorillas have to be extinct if evolution is true.

You ignored my post saying that there is no difference between 'macro-evolution' and 'micro-evolution'. Scientists do not make the distinction between the two. Evolution requires many small changes that accumulate to make big changes over time.

If you believe in micro-evolution then you believe in evolution.

That is a very poor example of explaining your position.  It is impossible for a human to have a monkey.  Why would Mother nature keep them around?  In America, you are taught that humans do come from monkeys.  It is in my country's history books and science books.  If monkeys and humans came from the common ancestor, where is the proof of the common ancestor?  There isn't one.  Sounds to me like the scientists and historians need to get their facts straight before the spread a lie.

If legit, Fstdt worthy right there.

Yup.

I'm calling poe on this one

Oh wow, that's a lot if "ifs".  So you don't REALLY believe.  You are trying to hedge your bet WITH GOD - - with an entity that you believe is all-powerful, that created the universe and billions upon billions of galaxies, and that (you believe) knows every thought in your head.  You don't really believe, but you have chosen a way to go through the motions that you think will save your precious bacon from your God's wrath.  After you tried to scam him.  You are basing your every breath on the fear of hell.  And here you're bathing in pride, because you think your "choice" is better than ours.  

Keep on lying to yourself and to your god.  I'm going to say I don't have enough evidence to believe in god until he tells me otherwise.  If he sends me to hell for that, so be it.

And you my friend, have no evidence He doesn't exist.  You are simply saying that He doesn't because it is illogical.  You choose not to believe, your choice and your decision.  Might be alot of what if's.  God does not make sense to the human mind and men have came up with tons and tons of excuses and reasons why He can't exist.  Others can't stand the fact that there might just be a Supreme Being over us.  It is easier to reject the idea or the possibility of God than it is to have faith.  Who knows? You might just be lying to yourself.

If only we could harness the projection from this species of fundie, we could channel it properly and project a ship halfway across the Universe. As an energy source it's incredible.

None of us are saying that humans come from monkeys.

Nature doesn't need a reason to keep anything around.

To paraphrase  Homer Simpson, what if you're worshipping the wrong god and making the real god angry?

But because gods cannot exist and all the evidence tells us that conscious thought is not possible without a physical brain (otherwise anesthesia wouldn't work and neurodegenerative diseases would not be a problem) the situation is more like this:

We're not the ones wasting our only life.

That is the chance you take on Homer Simpson.  Theories which are no more than a group of ideas made by educated guesses to explain something that the human race can't explain to completely wipe out any slightest idea of the possibility that there might just be a God.  Again, people have a close mind who choose to reject it.  Feel free to look up mortal and what that means.  We have no concept of forever.
