Blind faith and evolution

Eh, you got to be joking!
Every day i have to add a bead to the rosary of desperation when i read some of the comment in this forum.
Some people are really smart but other are really dumb and these dumb people keep on bubbling in their own ignorance.
Now the old saying.........IF YOU KEEP QUITE YOU MUST AGREE.
So if you guys do not say anything when these dumb people bubble then you are also guilty and therefore not very honest.
Now you tell me where you proved me wrong.
In the meantime i will tell you about some of the bubbling that i came across recently.
1) Telling me that human being evolved 100 thousand years ago when it is known that homo herectus was here 1 million years ago.
2) the capgrass syndrome bullshit.
3) 30 years doing yoga and not even known the meaning of yoga.
4) Taking from wiki facts as real when in reality wiki in that particular case took from media and media took information from corrupted police.
5) Talking about philosophy and not even know the real meaning of philosophy and here i do not mean just LOVE FOR KNOWLEDGE but where philosophy suppose to lead you.
C'on CleanshavenJesus tell me the meaning of "love for knowledge" so we can continue the conversation.Smile

I don't know how long ago humans evolved or how long ago homo herectus was around. But thats irrelevant. Unless i am misunderstanding the point you are trying to make, you do realise that evolution isn't a consistent thing. Animals don't evolve at the same rate all the time. I guess i'm just not understanding the point you are making

Rico, you've received so many arsekickings even I can feel it from here. Just about the only thing you've said that we can probably all agree on is that bit about dumb people bubbling in their own ignorance, but I'm guessing you won't understand why.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

His arse is unrecognisable after all the beatings it's had.

Naturally, stretching is the answer.

It'll take a bigger man than me to do that.

Wait, that didn't come out right...

Do you honestly expect me to believe a homo has maintained an erection for a million years?! That dude is not human!

Humans are Homo Sapiens. Homo Erectus was not human.

Is that what he thought? Jesus Christ!
I thought he was arguing (badly) that evolution couldn't work that fast or something like that.
If this is true, if he doesn't know the name of his own species.... I shudder at the implications

Honestly, I have no idea what his point was. His posts are largely incoherent.

You have to learn how to type correctly. It makes having conversations with you extremely difficult. I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, but it is true that homo sapiens (according to archaeologists) existed at least 195,000 years ago. And it is true that homo erectus existed over a million years ago. So what are you asking?

Quote:2) the capgrass syndrome bullshit.

What about it?

Quote:3) 30 years doing yoga and not even known the meaning of yoga.

...what?

Quote:4) Taking from wiki facts as real when in reality wiki in that particular case took from media and media took information from corrupted police.

......what?

Quote:5) Talking about philosophy and not even know the real meaning of philosophy and here i do not mean just LOVE FOR KNOWLEDGE but where philosophy suppose to lead you.

What. are. you. talking. about.
