Podo Posted September 22, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I'm going to go home and make dinner. Then I'll do laundry, probably play with my cat for a bit, and then transcribe a document written in the year 1139. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I decided to give all three questions their own thread. maybe I should have all three in the same thread. both religion and science try to answer these three questions.

Huh? how is this anything like the question you put? 2 hours ago, danielost said: there are three basic questions where did we come from, why are we here, and where are we going. I decided to give all three questions their own thread. maybe I should have all three in the same thread. both religion and science try to answer these three questions. Science can give you information on what years of scientific research has found so far, this includes the evolution of man, As for why are we here and where we are going, no body knows. The scientific side can be backed up by what has currently been found so far, but note: earliest known hominids. The religious side is based on imaginary beliefs and each will have their own ideas, but as to where did we come from from a religious point of view, if we take the Adam and Eve story, there is absolutely nothing to back that up and the scientific findings has proven the Adam and eve story to be completely not true.......because of evolution it has been proven it is also not even a possibility. Why are we here? no body knows, but many will have a different idea on this, some will say - we just are, I say we are because the conditions became right for another life form to live on this Earth - humans. If there is a reason other than being the life forms on a planet which can sustain life, then this reason must include every other living species on this planet as to why they are here too. From a religious point of view, well, are we saying heaven or hell as one idea? Where are we going? we can not predict the future, we can speculate on certain things based on mans behavior eg: maybe we will blow ourselves off this world with the weapons man has mad and increasingly keen to use against his fellow man, one thing we do know, is the weapons man are making and has made, can stop us going anywhere. We also have nature to deal with and the possibility we could all get wiped out the same way the dinosaurs did. Here is the FACTs we know so far as to where we came from, from the scientific findings. obviously Adam and Eve are not included here, for obvious reasons. The earliest known hominids appeared around 7 million years ago in Africa. Researchers generally agree that hominids evolved into Homofrom a small-brained genus calledAustralopithecus (Aw STRAAL oh PITH eh kus). No one knows precisely when that happened. But it was between 2 million and 3 million years ago. https://www.sciencenewsforstudents.org/article/where-do-humans-come Edited September 23, 2016 by freetoroam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We share most of our genetic material with every other life form on earth. More with foxes and chimpanzees than with yeast and redwoods, but still, we come from a common place. We are not a single organism; but a cooperative colony of billions of organisms living in this human body. Our guts are full of useful bacteria that share a goodly number of life characteristics with us. Our very cells seem to be a combination of several primordial symbiotic organisms. I kind of hope they find us useful too. The water we drink and the air we breathe have been recycled through countless organisms. Maybe that lung full of air you just expelled was produced by Carboniferous Epoch ferns and cycled through the lungs of a tyrannosaur. The iron in our blood was made in the core of a star. The calcium in our bones and the carbon in our cells come from supernovae that dispersed themselves before our sun even formed. We come from this earth, we are a part of it. We may have more self awareness than some of our companions, but it could be more of a continuum than a sharp division If you are of European descent, then some of your ancestors sat around a campfire with Neanderthals exchanging ghost stories and survival tips; and later in the evening a little bit of genetic material. If you are of Asian descent then more than likely it was Denisovans that shared the fire. Those are all facts. It is an amazing story that we are a part of. We blundered onstage somewhere in the middle and may only be the principal character from our own point of view. I don't think we know where it will go and how it will end. Personally though, I will end. Maybe the calcium in my bones will be utilized by some other being in some distant future. Will that being know we existed, probably not. Does it really matter? We are here now; that is the fact we know. Will the software survive when the computer is turned off? Doubtful. I am only uniquely valuable to myself. To the rest of the universe, I will be, am, was part of a chain of fascinating events. Best wishes to all fellow travelers. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielost Posted September 24, 2016 Author #21 Share Posted September 24, 2016 if you look at this timeline you will see none of the hominids timeline becomes modern human. only Neanderthals is along side it. modern humans came out of no where.

Darkenpath25 Posted September 24, 2016 #22 Share Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) We were created by our creator , when we die we go to purgatory or Heaven by the teachings of the Catholic faith . The way things are looking either the Aliens or Zombie's .are going to take us . . Mormons ? From history the Mormons attack innocent settlers around the mid 1800's then put the blame on the indians. Brigham Young ordered the Massacre of Mountain meadows then lied about it . Mormons today still try to cover it up so I can understand why you don't practice the Mormon faith besides who could keep up with all those wives ? I'm not even sure what you are asking .

XenoFish Posted September 24, 2016 #23 Share Posted September 24, 2016 When you die that's it and nothing more. All that you were shall become dust traveling through the cosmos after the earth dies. Everything that we've achieved will have been for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
back to earth Posted September 24, 2016 #24 Share Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) hey daniel ! read the text within the diagram you posted . Also, do you realize what you posted has a vertical time scale and not a horizontal one ? See that left hand column blue line with the 'million years ago' key ? You shouldnt really try to put up evidence that is beyond your comprehension ... ad then comment on it as if it proves what you are saying as you actually posted the evidence to what you yourself are refuting and that just makes you look even more like you havent got a clue what the hell you are trying to talk about .
