-As for nature never making mistakes, what about the dinosaur extinction which was most likely caused by an asteroid impact?
Why do you view that as a mistake?
Ricketto insists that nature never makes mistakes. If it's not just random chance, nature made a very big mistake with that asteroid.

Chimpanzees and bonobos eat meat as well as termites. Chimps, bonobos and humans have a common ancestor which suggests that our common ancestor had an ape diet. Why is it OK for chimps and bonobos to eat meat and termites if humans aren't adapted to it?

We have often agreed that factory farmed meat isn't the same as wild animal meat.

Don't be so bloody arrogant about people who don't live the same lifestyle as you.

Not even the most expert scientists have been able to ascertain this so far.
Dinosaur-Killer" Asteroid Crater Imaged for First Time
Quote:Exactly how the Chicxulub impact caused Earth's mass extinctions is not known (see links below). Scientists imagine three possible scenarios: Some think the impact threw massive quantities of dust into the atmosphere which blocked the sun and arrested plant growth. Others believe sulfur released by the impact lead to global sulfuric acid clouds that blocked the sun and also fell as acid rain. Another possibility is that red-hot debris from the falling asteroid or comet triggered global wildfires.
Each of those possible scenarios effected the whole planet because it was a very big asteroid.

You're the one who said that nature never makes mistakes.

One cycle end while an other is born so nothing really new in this universe.
If it's all cleverly planned, why start out with dinosaurs, kill them off and then start all over again evolving little mammals? You might as well evolve a species of dinosaur to get a brain equal to that of humans. I don't see why an ape is superior to a dinosaur.
Where are the snake and mushroom smilies?
