    Default Question for Pond-scum (Evolution) believers

    Just wondering - hoping you can shed some light on this for me - if Evolution IS in fact true - uhh.. what's next? e.g. what makes us think that we - in our human form - are "it"?

    What will the next version of us be? Will there be one? If not, why? What makes us think we won't eventually evolve into an alien of sorts? etc..etc...


    If we are at the end of the cycle, why?

    Humans are the first species to be able to destroy themselves, their environment, and in fact reverse the beneficial effects of evolution by Liberalism and Socialism.

    The more you think about this post, the more thought-provoking it is.
    Excellent!

    Yes, capitalism will destroy the planet if we let it.

    Interesting. How does the anti-choice stance fit in with this mindset?
    Man is a marvelous curiosity … he thinks he is the Creator's pet … he even believes the Creator loves him; has a passion for him; sits up nights to admire him; yes and watch over him and keep him out of trouble. He prays to him and thinks He listens. Isn't it a quaint idea.

    You'll have to be more specific in your questions.

    On the contrary. It's not thought-provoking at all. It makes ungrounded assumptions and shows absolutely no understanding--in fact I'll go so far as to say ignorance--of the theory of evolution itself.

    There are no evolutionary scientists who have ever said we've reached the peak in human evolution--in fact, the contrary is true--nor has anyone ever said we're at the end of the "cycle," nor does anyone believe that we're in a "cycle." This is something -Cp made up to make evolutionary theory look foolish and I have to say he's done a terrible job. His tone is hostile and his "facts" are made-up.

    I was referring specifically to Glock's post, which I quoted in my post, not -Cp's.

    Whatev. Either way, I know whatever it was you were agreeing with was anti-science or anti-"liberals." "Thought-provoking." What a joke. Everything is an insult to progressive thinking with you guys. By the same token, I should be able to say, "Humans are the first species to be able to destroy themselves, their environment, and in fact reverse the beneficial effects of evolution by Conservatism and Fascism." and have every lib poster on this board respond with "Hmm, that's very thought-provoking. Hmm." Ppffftt. What a joke.

    I am always amused at how you come here off and on, and then proceed to condescendingly call the majority of posters here jokes and idiots. If I thought that way, I wouldn't waste one minute here.

    I'm amused with you too. The feeling's mutual I guess.

    WTH? How was there any "Tone" to my post at all, and why won't you answer it?

    I did answer it. All the questions you ask are baseless. No evolutionist has ever said that we are at the peak of human evolution nor have they said that we are "it." And the tone is in the title of the thread. "Pond Scum" believers.
