To the real anthropologists (you know who you are)



Unless you're completely amused by it, there's no point
in this evolution debate. They don't know what the word
means, don't care to find out. They don't know what cells
are, and I am not sure they understand what sperms may
be, or eggs. I don't think they understand what a gene is,
or what a point mutation is. I don't think they know these
things can be measured (mutations, alleles, etc.) And
counted. I don't think they truly believe that identical twins
have identical DNA, or that the rest of us have body parts
created in many ways by DNA. They don't know how
genes are marked off, or what chromosomes really are.
They don't know about random assortment or crossover or
any of the common mechanisms of biologic change. They
can't define the term "species," and couldn't if their asses
were set on fire. They don't know what to do with modern
views on gene splicing or speciation. No one cares, but them,
about absolutely strict species lines - so let them prove
to me that they are NOT chimps. They are not the same
species as the rest of us. They simply aren't - and I'm going
by brain parameters, now.

They certainly don't know about genes that can go on and off,
the nature of polygenic physiology, developmental genes,
potential gene switches/dials, or about how genetic distance
between any two beings could be studied, much less measured.

They don't know when their "Bible" was written down,
or where its earliest scraps are located or who supposedly
translated/transcribed most of it, where and why. God created
something, let's just let them go with that - but not homo
sapiens. God created Adam and Eve, then killed off their
progeny (except maybe not - those Cain/Canaanites seem
awfully pesky, even after the Flood) except Noah and his three
sons. ALL of us except a few Middle Easterners are descended
from one of those sons, and that started happening - according
to their belief - about 4,400 years ago. Those of us who
claim ancestors living, say, in China already at the time,
are wrong. The fact that our ancestor's housing was not
wiped out by the flood by seems to have been continuously
occupied is false to them. Farming was invented by the
very first generation of people to exist on earth, and pigs are
filthy.

Come on - this has to be genetic. No one could be
in that mentality and have normal homo sapiens brains.
These people are not like
us. They simply are a different species, someday we'll find
a way of making that clearer (as though we need one). Who
would interbreed with them? Not a single one of us. Or one
of us who caught swept up in some unusual event, perhaps
random gene drift (women get pregnant sometimes because
of a guy's lovely warm body, and they forget to check out his
brain - the speciation isn't complete, but the kids need to be
raised by the homo sapiens parent).

So there's homo sapiens and there's the Jepeth/Ham people
(I can never remember which they claim to be - but at
any rate, aside from a few Semites, most of these folks
are from Jepeth/Ham - you know, the bad seed).

You can't possibly make them sit and study all the biology
they need, via the internet. They won't do it, and they will
drag you down. They'll pretend to have learned that they
know what oxygen is and that we breath it, but they'll
gleefully insist that's not true the next day, if they need to.
They'll pretend to have learned about rates of atomic decay,
when it suits them - but they'll deny it the next minute.

I don't even have proof that these people are conscious,
that they have minds capable of creating a field of experience
wherein they can actually hear anything outside their own
heads. Now, I do believe that the nature of the delusions
they hold is in part due to culture, but I don't really care to
investigate it further.

It's hopeless to try and teach them anything, much less
argue with them. If they sit quietly in a circle in front of you
and promise to take careful notes, to be tested often,
and to not stray from their task of learning biology, then
MAYBE you can interact with them - if you want to. Or
you can weed 'em out.
