Author Topic: How do you think humans were first created?  (Read 7868 times)

Do you really think having encumbering pads on your hands with keratin structures inside of them that come out of your hand
with the slightest pressure would improve our spear handling abilities?
why would you hold a spear when you have MOTHERloving RETRACTABLE CLAWS?!

It's not like there's a great big grab bag. We just didn't get lucky enough to have retractables, I guess.
I admit that it's likely the retraction could have come along after it separated for felines

to my knowledge, evolution doesn't compensate for technology
as long as we use them, keeping the general structure of gun grips and triggers the same, I don't think our hands would ever change to accommodate them better
it just determines what kills us, and fixes that problem

There are many fossils of primitive humans evolving better hands for using tools.

Well, to be honest, I believe humans were created by a special power. To be more in depth, I think there was a large triangle dome in the middle of a forest, and it just sat there for billions of years, then one day, it cracked and released billions of small nano robot things. These robots together took pieces of the world from every continent and used these to construct an egg the size of an atom. Over time this egg grew to be about the size of a golf ball, and began to turn a blue color. And about a couple million years later it hatched a larger group of nano robots. These robots worked together in small groups and traveled everywhere to find the DNA, organs, etc. of the first human being. They searched deep under the earth surface. They searched from the biosphere all the way up to the thermosphere to build this being, and after many years of searching, they finally had the proper pieces to make a human being. After construction, the human sat there, dormant, as if it were dead already. Eventually, the dead human decayed and formed a fertilized pile of soil. This soil was discovered by a wise pterodactyl who gently picked it up with it's large wings and carried it to its nest. In that nest was a group of eggs. The pterodactyl gently poked a hole in each egg and poured the soil inside. After that, it sealed the holes tightly with super glue. After many months, the eggs finally hatched the first living human beings. There were 30 eggs total, but only 2 ended up hatching a male and female human. These two humans lived together in the pterodactyl nest and learned basic human needs. They eventually figured out how to reproduce and build shelter. And before you know it, they were living in a small colony of humans. These humans went on living together in peace and harmony for millions of years to come.

Its name, which means ‘handy man’, was given in 1964 because this species was thought to represent the first stone-tool maker.


yeah... but not that its hands had evolved specifically for that

I don't even think all cats even have retractable claws, but I'm not really sure.

Not quite. Again, evolution isn't sentient. It doesn't fix things. It's just the process by which we change, because a specific trait gets us killed before reproduction. It's not survival of the fittest, it's death of the least fit. If claws hindered our ability to use spears, and so the spear-bearers survived to pass on their genes, but the clawed people didn't, then it did, in a way, favor technology.

Nothing evolves specifically for anything. It's natural selection that produces the best of the species and allows them to reproduce and pass their traits. In this case it was the ability to make tools.

arguments between Christians and evolutionists.

>implying you can't be a christian and an evolutionist at the same time

tools had nothing to do with reproduction until after the industrial age

that really is depressing, bc Evolution would be the best god
anyway, but the clawed people could have used spears, too
and, tbh, I don't think claws would largely get in the way of that

If I can get the most food and my offspring can get the most food and I can defend myself better then I'm obviously going to mate more with my longer lifespan and higher stature in the tribe.

ok, that was a joke
but um
I really just don't think I can say anything more, as far as that goes

I'm no expert at all. So there is a possibility some of that is incorrect.

well I'm not either (which is why I've been corrected a lot in this thread)
but hey, that's how you learn! well, there's that way, and the normal way, but they're both good ways to learn imo
