Am I the only one here that doesn't believe in evolution? I've read several reports, and watched several documentaries that weren't religious based. There is no more stronger argument for evolution than there is for creationism. Both camps are subjective and selective in their research. Neither wants to acknowledge information that discredits their theory. One scientist said for humans to emerge from the primate gene pool is akin to a hurricane blowing through a junkyard and leaving a new car behind. There is no scientific hard evidence that it's possible for humans to emerge from such a gene pool. It's just guesswork. Archeologist are finding advanced civilizations that go back further and further all the time. Artifacts that date in the million years. For any information supporting "evolution", there is just as much information supporting advanced civilizations before evolution. Notice I didn't say "created" civilizations. I don't stand on the "creationist" platform, and I don't support the "evolution" platform. I learned "evolution" as a "THEORY" in school. I just get uncomfortable that people discuss "evolution" as if it's a foregone conclusion, which it isn't. Vegetarianism was around tens of thousands of years ago in Vedic texts. Aurevedics performed surgeries as far back as 5000 years. If I had to choose, which I don't, between scientist and yogis, and between evolution and creationism....hmmm......well at least the yogis have a history of vegetarianism, living in caves and forests, and devotional service. The scientist will tell you anything for a Tenure. It seems the decision comes down to faith. Faith in the scientific community, or faith in vegetarian spiritualist who have been around for thousands of years. I guess my main point is this. Who cares what cave men were eating thousands of years ago. Their environment had nothing to do with our living conditions today. We go to the supermarket foraging for "organic" vegetables and fruits. If we garden, we don't live in fear of the wooly mammoth, but the Monsanto beast lurking to influence our seed selections. Our lives are impossible to compare to lost civilizations. In India I met a yogi who basically lived on twigs, and he had a luminous body. Another lived on a mountain top for 15 years...no one knows what he ingested up there. Nothing much that you or I could subsist on. I'm not trying to make an argument for creationism, but making the argument that evolution is not a scientific fact.
