Don't really know. But surely something would have shown up in man's 5000 year or so of existence.So you think man evolved from apes in what, like a decade? 100 years?

Why can't you even get that right? Humans have been around much longer than 5000 years.Don't really know. But surely something would have shown up in man's 5000 year or so of existence.
In about 5,000 years you might see some changes in the genome, perhaps some new resistance to disease or something. I doubt you would see any huge morphological changes in that relatively short time. Their habitat hasn't changed a whole lot in that time.Don't really know. But surely something would have shown up in man's 5000 year or so of existence.

What do you expect to "show up"? Why do you criticize biology without trying first to learn what it is?
Dude, there are trees older than 5787.Why the present date is 2016 Because we are in a Christian world, meaning since Christ was born .
For Jews the world is 5787 years old because they are descendant of Adam
But for you Pagans the world is millions of year because you don't know your beginning
No, you are so wrong. The world is only 62 years old - I'm a scientologist.Why the present date is 2016 Because we are in a Christian world, meaning since Christ was born .
For Jews the world is 5787 years old because they are descendant of Adam
But for you Pagans the world is millions of year because you don't know your beginning
So ... you get your knowedge of the world from a calendar?Why the present date is 2016 Because we are in a Christian world, meaning since Christ was born .
For Jews the world is 5787 years old because they are descendant of Adam
But for you Pagans the world is millions of year because you don't know your beginning

(and it's billions, not millions)
I don't know what you're saying. Why wouldn't you disagree that the world is 62 years old? The world predates society. Many societies had calendars, the Mayans were crazy about them. You can extend any calendar forwards and backwards to infinity, it's an abstract thing.I think you did not understand what I am trying to say .According to the bible the world is very old ,older then 6000 years. according to science ( earth 4.7 billion old ) I don't have any problem wit 4.7 bill. nor very old , nor 6000 years nor 2016 , nor 62 years old. It is matter of how society decides to keep the record .
You as a Jew you know the beginning for you is Adam we are 5777 years since Adam. Do all Jews believe that no.
Did the Roman or the Greeks have a continuous calendar as we have I don't think so
What kind of weird insult is that supposed to be?Why the present date is 2016 Because we are in a Christian world, meaning since Christ was born .
For Jews the world is 5787 years old because they are descendant of Adam
But for you Pagans the world is millions of year because you don't know your beginning
No.You as a Jew you know the beginning for you is Adam we are 5777 years since Adam. Do all Jews believe that no.
Unsupported claim.Genesis coincides with an important evolution in the human brain.
Unsupported claim.When the bible speaks of this new human having free choice, it speaks of the secondary center.
Arrant nonsense.Civilization is not natural.
Citation needed.required choices apart from natural instinct; choice appears.
Made up crap (and please, demonstrate that "free will" actually exists [1]).Biology and science confuses the issue, since it judges by the surface, rather than by the core; free will.
Wait what?They base that conclusion on the preponderance of DNA, not on a small margin of DNA. This shows how subjective this is.
Oldest known writing: 3400-3200 BC.At 6000 years ago, the invention of writing appears.
Citation needed.The two are connected.
No, it's not. The line of descendants from Adam (created very shortly after the Earth was created) to Moses (a historical figure) can be traced back through the Bible, and has been; it gives a total age (2600 years for Adam to Moses plus 3400 years Moses to present day) of about 6000 years. You can make some different assumptions for lifetimes, age of childbearing etc but it doesn't change that by more than a factor of 3 or so.I think you did not understand what I am trying to say .According to the bible the world is very old ,older then 6000 years.
This is your claim.You don't seem to know what free will is. All free will is, is the ability to make choices contrary to internal programming; animal instincts.
This too is your claim. And, again, unevidenced.The same was true of the transition humans, which the bible speaks of.
Attacked personally?Before I go any further, why is the staff allowing its members to be attacked personally? Is Dywyddyr the bouncer for the staff and is therefore being allowed to attack people at their request?
No, it's not. The line of descendants from Adam (created very shortly after the Earth was created) to Moses (a historical figure) can be traced back through the Bible, and has been; it gives a total age (2600 years for Adam to Moses plus 3400 years Moses to present day) of about 6000 years. You can make some different assumptions for lifetimes, age of childbearing etc but it doesn't change that by more than a factor of 3 or so.
Or, again, you can ignore that part of the Bible.
It's calendar-agnostic. Lineage gives an absolute time, and the time that Moses lived is fairly well known (no matter what calendar you use.)Question - do these traces account for changes in the calendar (or do they have to? Were there any changes?)
So your complaint about biology is that it judges biological questions based on what we can discover about the world rather than your specific idea of free will.Biology and science confuses the issue, since it judges by the surface, rather than by the core; free will.
This is a poor analogy, since human biologists today identify many "pre-humans" as "pre-apes", given that humans are pretty much a type of ape. Perhaps you mean some specific species of ape rather than apes in general. But there are reasons to declare a species related to one another, not simply subjective whim.As an analogy, say apes suddenly begin to think and speak like in the planet of the apes. Human science assumes pre-humans appear about 6 million years ago. But say the apes decide to be more ape-centric and say these were not pre-humans, but part of the ape line, since this is better for their own agenda. They base that conclusion on the preponderance of DNA, not on a small margin of DNA. This shows how subjective this is.
I don't see where he is personally attacking you, he has attacked your ideas and your belief that staff requested him to do this is absurd and a bit paranoid sounding.Is Dywyddyr the bouncer for the staff and is therefore being allowed to attack people at their request?
