interesting theory about evolution.

[TanisHalfElven]

i am taking the book empire from the ashes as something like a starting point.

now for those who haven't read Empire from the ashes by david webber it lays out a back story of something like this.

ALL humans currently on the earth are descended from and an space empire of humans who landed on earth some 50 millenia ago and lost their technology (i will not explain why but it is very belivable).

well it explains the link by saying that before that human empire there was a non-human empire that repopulated that earth of homo-sapians and all other species after an attack that destroyed all life on earth (including the dinosaours).

In the book religions (all not just one) were used by a rebel group of "imperials" to controls the terra population.

is that plausible ? i;m thinking seems like something that could explain why even after all the evolutionary proof we have people who stronly argue against it. also would explain why evolution theory is not perfect.

argue and enjoy.

You'll need to explain it better before I can comment. This sentence (?) is perplexing:

ok.........

 

[zinfamous]

it doesn't take science fiction to explain the ignorant masses. sounds like an interesting story, but that's all it is.

what I mean is that there is an explanation for why people deny evolution: they simply want to.

btw...please, no more evolution threads.

 

[NuclearNed]

I thought all science fiction was plausible at some level; that's half the fun of reading it...

what grade are you in?

Evolution is fact and unless something has recently come up, it is perfect.

As for the people who refuse to believe...well, they're brainwashed by what they've read in a book or by how they've been raised.

LMAO. A super race of humans that can travel through space and time but somehow lose their technology once they reach Earth. Please tell me you're not really that gullible. I mean, seriously.

 

[BigJ]

About as plausible as me saying I'm going to wake up next to Adriana Lima tomorrow morning.

 

[Fritzo]

? I hope you're not serious.

[Printer Bandit]

sounds like scientology.

 

[TuxDave]

I'm pretty sure that the people who argue against evolution would also argue against the idea that we were populated by aliens or anything that does not involve a divine entity.

Thanks best laugh I've had all day.

Well this should be a lesson. If you plan to start a folk group, don't go mixing politics with the folk songs of our land.

Evolution is a theory, and it's not perfect in that's it is still be modified. There was something not too long announce, some new alteration based on a recent discovery. Just can't remember the details now.

50 millenia? That would be 5 million years ago. Funny we have found no fossils yet.

Anyhoo, seems more like an explaination for abiogenisis (sp?) than evolution.

Although I believe in evolution, I think to label anything as 'fact' is inherently defeating the unstable concept itself. At the end of the day there is no way to know... only ways to assume. And what good is assumption?
