  • Hominid==>Human Evolution??

    From panther2020@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jan 3 15:17:23 2024
    For any hominid to have evolved into a human, he'd have needed to lose everything he needed to live, including:

    1 His fur while ice ages were happening
    2 Nearly all of his night vision while surrounded by large carnivores
    that could all see quite nicely in the dark
    3 Nearly all of his sense of smell while trying to make it as a land
    prey animal
    4 Nearly all of his musculature, in an age when muscle mattered

    That's a really stupid plan. Who dreams that sort of thing up??

    God. God works in mysterious ways.
