Re: Cyprian > Orthodox Christians do not believe in Darwinistic evolution, period. Man did not come from apes. But there's considerable fossil evidence to show that he did or could have. Indeed, other than mythology and religious dogma, there's no factual evidence to support the concept of creationism. The funny thing is that I stopped short of challenging the fundamentalists' creation myth itself... My post #10630 merely adduced an article on the Neolithic era, 14000-10000 BC --an era where our ancestors were already very far from monkeys and apes. Neolithic men had a language, if only an oral one, a sedentary lifestyle, and started growing crops, cattle,.... And physically speaking, although shorter, they probably looked very much like us. Of course, it's a slippery slope for Cyprian to follow because he very well knows that, if he yielded to the paleontologists' evidence that there were already human beings a few thousand years before 5508 BC(), then his whole creationist fantasy will unravel, millennium after millennium, as the question of where the neolithic human tribes came from will steer us ever farther back in time.... and away from his Biblical figments. () 5508 BC —Adam and Eve are fashioned and placed in Paradise. But the serpent (Satan) tempts them to disobey God's commandment, and for this, they lose God's grace and are cast out of Paradise.
