The truth is not just any old crap.
Indeed, I am only writing this post so that you may get it through that thick skull of yours that one size does not fit all and what is one mans trash is another mans treasure,etc.
Anyway, God is all, is in everything and no matter how much you may want to judge and label anything that goes against your belief system as "satanic" or whatever other nonsensical answer/thought you come up with, the fact of the matter is there are many different ways to approach life/spirituality, and hence your are just holding up evolution and the furthering of our understanding of the world/universe around us,(and inside us), with your inane posts.
Please re-consider hitting the "post" button next time you butt into a conversation that obviously doesn't concern you. Ok?

If anything it seems too much intelligence has made us better adept at killing eachother- to the point of near global genocide. Lets hope intelligence is used for the right things.
1100-1900cc - is that right? Seems like and awful big discrepency. I th ...[text shortened]... r how the different races came into being.
But I dont want to get ahead of myself.
Ideas?
Our intelligence, or more accurately our ability to problem solve, gave us a better advantage in surviving. Therefore the genes that were responsible for intelligence were passed on. It's true that our intelligence has given us the ability to create more sophisticated ways of killing each other, but remember 99.9% of the worlds population gets along just fine.
1100-1900cc - is that right? Seems like and awful big discrepency. I thought it was more like 1450-1550cc.
That's the end ranges but most fall in line between 1300cc - 1500cc. Think about human heights, the tallest living person is over 8 feet tall and the smallest is 2 feet or so, the rest would fall into the somewhere in the middle.
There'e so many factors, but we can narrow it down for human evolution and guess to say that humans and their protoypes lived about 30-40 years on average.
The slight problem with human life expectancy rates for early humans is that many died in childhood. Yet if a person made it to their teenage years, their life expectancy was then around the mod 50's.

Did you hear about "mitochondrial Eve"?
Yes. She lived around 200,000 years ago. It should be noted that she represents our common ancestor for our maternal genetic line, it doesn't mean she was the only woman. Molecular genetics estimates our human population has never gone below a few thousand people.

You sure like to pass on lies with no proof. The earth was not even
created and ready for life 200,000 years ago according to the word
of truth.

Do you want to go try again or do you just want to come back as a super intelligent,all knowing rhp poster, whose word is never disputed, for I can do that for you. But you will never actually learn anything like this and the "dish" waiting for you will always be the one that you yourself created."

Or you may just cease to exist. Either way, I think this is the time to learn and open our minds to the world around us, the people and ideas, for they are actually your friends in disguise, for there never was any opposition in your world except that which you put there yourself.
