    I am a man of science, therefore I believe in evolution. I don't believe in ghosts, stories from the bible, ufo's. Do I believe there is life on other planets. I accept that the statistics mean there should be. I've never really been one for believing in the bible, because no one can prove that any of it ever happened.

    Let's take modern Africa for example , with your hypothesis , every prey animal slower than a cheetah should theoretically be extinct ?

    I will try and explain it one more time then I am done. We are and have always been at the top of the food chain - not because of physcial strength, but due to our logic and mental capacities (which evolved with smart women picking strong and intelligent men ((if they were dumb, they would of been killed off anyways way before they could reproduce)), they reproduce and teach their smart children how to stay safe). Without having animals trying to kill us constantly, we did not have to evolve on a grand scale. Sure, a mountain lion or bear involked the "flight" response and we would run to stay alive. Why are some races faster than others?

    Without having these "extreme" influences pushing our evolutionary paths down different lines, we evolved on smaller scales. Skin pigment and hair evolved on a microscale due to the environments. Africans have afro's so the wind would blow through it and cool the top of their heads. Eskimos have naturally greasy straight hair for just the opposite. If North America had an animal that loved eating thumbs of humans, you could be damn sure that Native Americans would have developed a trait to protect thumbs. Guess what, those things don't and never did exist.

    You really can't think of any animal is physically lame as humans?

    That's your argument?

    Pointless trying to reason with you then.

    you have zero understanding that if the modern human came up how they are 150,000 years ago when all the continents were already separated we are suppose to believe that humans that shed their coat cause they were too hot crossed the frigid north in animal skins to warm back up the trip taking generations to get there. before the ice melted and then they turned into native americans... in 30000 years. now to get more south if would have taken longer. so how did the people get to easter island? im sure they walked...

    We didn't start from nothing , we evolved from social apes , look at any social animal types today , they care for / protect their young collectively , not sure how that isn't abundantly apparent

    :rolleyes:

    The fundamentals for birds were passed along as well. and we have ostriches and swallows. We dont have one species of birds. But we have one species of humans...

    If the fundamentals for humans were there to develop during pangea, why did humans get to North America form the 2000 so called modern men that were left in Africa?

    You keep playing ignorant to what I and others have linked for you. The others died out other ways, not by humans smashing them.

    I've never studied it, but I am willing to bet their is a major classification that all birds fit into. There are just many more types of birds as opposed to humans.

    We've covered this already. Refer to the map. Do you understand that the colored legend key on the right refer to 10,000 years like 35-45 = 35,000-45,000 years ago?

    Blank slate! :rolleyes:

    subtle ways of making Africans seem lesser :rolleyes:

    probably because they used more technology to get their stuff done.

    Im not playing ignorant. Im just using your examples to show that there are flaws in the theory.

    here is a legitimate response.

    According to evolution the foundation for Humans to be was always there on pangea. The land mass broke up and with it that ground work went. subsequently in the time they had alone several different species of humanoids arose. To then all die off except one little group of 2000 that we know as humans today. They then reseeded the planet. including where this framework from evolution was there but didnt form humans in north america. They came from the small group in Africa.
