Why don't you ask the people who painted the cave?

You often do that.

I think you mean what scientists surmise, guess, hope, so it is absolutely a matter of faith.

Hence the reason I qualified my question as a hypothetical thought puzzle...my question was not intended to directly reflect reality. If you can do it, why can't I? At least I am honest enough to state at the beginning it is a hypothetical thought puzzle, unlike those who authoritatively state...

So goes the current dogma.

OK...and evidence for shrinking incisors? You are the one making the association between them.

https://www.interfaith.org/community/threads/369/post-2301 Link to a post on an old thread, well worth reviewing. Written by bananabrain, whom I hold as a Jewish scholar, in discussion with bobx (no lightweight in scholarship himself) are discussing the ramifications of Document Hypothesis /...

Donation of Constantine, so I don't forget. Thank you Bobx. "The Donation of Constantine (Latin: Donatio Constantini) is a forged Roman imperial decree by which the 4th-century emperor Constantine the Great supposedly transferred authority over Rome and the western part of the Roman Empire to...

OK...hypothetical thought puzzle. Let's say in the next few years astronomers detect chlorophyll on Europa. Would that finding support Science, Religion, both or neither? Discuss...

Yet you present speculation on a routine basis with no evidence. Does that make you irrational? It is your right by free will to abandon or accept whatever belief.

Speculation has no evidence. Speculation merely draws from what is evident and attempts to connect unproven dots, sometimes with merit, often without merit. Overwhelming subjective evidence has already been presented, and which you have every right to ignore.

Unless this is speculation founded on faith, there should be evidence. ;)

It wasn't RJM that drew your condescension. One doesn't have to accept an invitation to a battle. Response to what you consider falsehood needn't be condescending.

Evidence, please? If this is the case, you should be able to connect when archaic humans used fire and demonstrate the dentition of those same archaic humans. If the evidence exists you should be able to connect the dots for us here. Otherwise this is speculation.

I can see that in a philosophical manner, yet perhaps this view is a bit romantic for reality? So much hinges on what is "real" and what is allegory and metaphor. Were the 8th day creation of ha-Adam (man of red clay) and Eve separate and distinct from the rest of creation, including the 6th...

Predatory animals have incisors...I am thinking the question you meant to ask is why human incisors became smaller?

It isn't the fact you replied that drew my response, it is what your reply consisted of. Your response was quite out of character for you, and honestly in contrast to the site's declared purpose. You have seen me respond in disagreement often...that is called communicating, dialogue...

Thank you, gentlemen, for all of your hard work restoring the front end. I took a quick glance and it looks good so far. Even just linking the counter arguments is better than none at all. To give Victor his due diligence, I am inclined to believe his claims of thousands of hours pouring over...

Yeah, with the site crash I'm trying to refind some of the older, better threads.
