Re: This is why I dont like the ACLU
I agree. The odds are so stacked against us ever happening at all in the first place. <br /><br />Then, we are so helpless at birth. We have no defense against the elements, no fur, no claws, our teeth are useless for defense, can't run fast enough & not strong to defend against bigger stronger mammals. Come to think of it, we should be nothing more than forage for big cats, or incubators for really nasty viruses.<br /><br />All we have really is opposable thumbs and really big brains, which probably explains why we're so helpless at birth - any further in-utero development and our heads would get way too big for the big push. Evolution explains some things, but not everything.<br /><br />But nevertheless, the odds are pretty good for apes & humans to have common ancestors, don't you think?Originally posted by bayman:<br /> (Not that I believe we came from apes or monkeys.) ... So why would mankind ever come about? Realistically under evolution - at least the way I comprehend it - we should not exist.
