About evolution

[The Grand Nudger]

I am not a denier of it. But some of the explanation doesnt make much sense to me. What i do agree with is animals evolve. There has been proof that elephants grow without tusks because in Africa they take their horns and so now some dont grow tusks at all.

Or the fact that a lion, panther or house cat have similar traits. So evolution does make sense here.

Pretty cool - I hadn't heard about the elephants.  

But here is where i dont agree. I dont think humans is the way it is just because apes are smart. That i think is stupid. Because think about it? Squirrels are smart, they have thumbs and feets. Why cant they evolve into a humanoid things? Or racoons? Why only us?

Example. Why cant there be a life form that looks like this? Explain that?

You're not disagreeing with evolutionary biology, here.  A complete description of humanity contains more than just cleverness - which is a broadly shared trait, not just between us and other primates..but many animals, as you note.  Some plants are clever as well.  There's nothing preventing some humanoid race of -insert x here- from evolving - broadly defined and in a vacuum.  

To put this into context of earth, and life's vast interelationship - it's clear that selective pressure advantaged an animal like us - but we weren't always as we are.  Rodents like squirrels -did- evolve into humanoids.  Us. 

I'm not confident that another species following a similar evolutionary trajectory would have much luck...because even though there's no reason it couldn't happen again..in a vacuum.. on earth, there are billions.  Us.  

We've been training dogs to hunt racoons for some time now.

Another theory is people say that survival instinct was also reason to why humans became the way it is. Which i also dont believe in. Lots of species have been on their way of extinction. I have yet not seen them go HAAAH TRANSFORM. So i dont buy it.

Yep, earth is a meat grinder.  We think of other planets as hostile because of some environmental factor like atmosphere or temperature - but here on earth...the air is fine and the water is cool.  OTOH, you won't be eaten alive anus first on mars.  

Most species that have ever graced this open grave we call home are under our feet.  Unclear on what you mean by survival instict - and just like before noting that it takes more than a broadly shared drive to live to describe human beings - I'd say that I don't even know how you could be disagreeing with evolutionary biology on this one.  

Now what i think is the real thing is Alien DNA. Some evolutionary biological thing that may be added by some alien biological thing. Basically i think humans are half ape and half alien in DNA. And thats why i think we are the way we are.

Alien dna wouldn't be a problem for evolutionary biology.  Presumably, that alien dna also underwent evolutionary processes.  

Also articles on trying this with animals? So if a animals turns out to be sapient. Then we know the real deal. But what do you think?

The real deal about what?  We know that at least one animal is sapient.  Us.  I wouldn't be surprised to find that there are more.  What do you think this would tell us about whatever real deal you're referring to?
