I finally get it. I just watched "Walking with Caveman" - a BBC documentary on the different hominid species that evolved before homo sapiens.
Even though I have these forums, I never really had it all in context before. I never studied biology or evolution in college or even high school (I was in an arts core in high school and college).
It makes so many things ridiculous to even debate. I really can't put it totally into words, still absorbing it. But it brings up many revelations in regards to religion and systems we have designed to make sense of the world around us.
We are not the only species, just the one that made it through.......mind blowing.
I understand now why evolution is such a blow to religion, and why it is feared and hated by some.
I highly recommend the "Walking with Cavemen" video - I got it off Netflix. |
