When you think of all the billions of years worth of species that walked this earth... ALONE... just this planet... it's amazing. And to think... at one point in time... even this planet was just a lifeless ball where nothing could survive... but in the sea... the atmosphere.. so dense.. not even a single green little thing could live on land... and to think what has come from all that.... ....
:huh:
I gotta stop.. I'll go on all night.

I just truly find the entire ifea of nature.. and life.. and evolution to be almost discustingly fascinating.. and more often then not.. I think about it until I actually give myself a headache.. but it's a weird sort of pleasure. :dunno:

Wow that was just beutiful. I completely agree how mistyfing the universe is. How can we grasp the concept of endless. There has to be an end and whats beyond that. On earth everything has a container but whats contains the universe.
MrFatbooty: I like your concept of how God tried to put it in lamens terms for the primitive ppl at the time being. It gives a huge argument to the evolution ppl.
On that note I believe in evolution. I think ppl around the world used religion to describe the unknown. There were different gods for wether paterns, life, death, love, and so on. I thnk thats why our society is becoming less religous. With all our technology, science, and spcae exploration the old religions don't answer our unknowns any more. We know why it rains and we know that we are not the center of the univers, not even our solar system.
Seems to me that evolution clears up a lot more things than religion does.
