What are you going on about? I've never heard anyone tell me I came from a monkey. I've heard the theory of evolutuion which states that primates and humans share a common ancestor, which they do.
Funny story, my Science teacher was giving everyone a riddle. He was like, "Two twins are born, one twin was born five minutes after the other twin but celebrates his birthday one day earlier than the other one. How is this possible?"
and one kid answered, "God made it happen."
and my science teacher said, "God doesn't exist, this is Science class. He can screw with time outside the classroom."
Funny as hell. I have to agrre to. If there is a God, he certainly has no leverage in Science class.

1. Evolution takes MILLIONS OF YEARS. Here's how it works. You have natural selection. Okay, an animal, let's say it's a rabbit, is born with a genetic diversity. Let's say instead of being born with a white coat it's slightly gray, really slightly. In fact it's an almost unnoticable shade. Neither of its parents had a slightly gray coat, so it's a random genetic change. Now, let's say these rabbits make their livelihood in a soily, rocky area. The wolves come, they eat most of the rabbits, as they do every year. One of the rabbits that survived had this genetic change that randomly made him blend in just a little more so the other rabbits made better targets. He passes this new gene onto the next generation, and they all survive slightly better. Fifty, sixty generations later there are a breed of rabbits living in that area that have a coat that is the exact color of the rocky terrain they live in.
Also, we see evolution occurring all the time.
Let's say you spray some type of pesticide to get rid of all the cockroaches in your house. Your spray every little one you can find. You use one brand, and spray every time you see a new one. Three weeks later, you're spraying them but nothing is happening. Your pesticide killed maybe 90% of the termites, yet 10% were diverse, and randomly were able to fend off the spray for whatever reason, whether they're immune or whatever. This 10% bred and their genes passed on so now all the cockroaches are immune to they pesticide. That is a perfect example of evolution.
2. That's not a crime. A crime would be if the Science teacher said, "God doesn't exist, you can't believe in God." He was making a joke and if you wanted to be a tight boat and challenge him on it he'd probably say, "We only deal with things we can prove in Science class."
jonajosa
May 24 2005, 10:43 PM
We'll see hwo long #2 stands up in court. "I was just joking you honor."
AS for spraying your cockroaches... Thats called adaptation not evolution. I was talking about monkeys. Do we see them evolving? We just see them pick up a stick and dig in the ground with it for food. Thats called instinct. Which is driven by hunger in that case.
DoomedOne
May 24 2005, 10:55 PM
No, that is evolution. Look it up, adaptation happens in your lifetime (Say you go out into freezing cold weather for 30 minutes every day, well eventually you will adapt to be able stand out there for like 2 hours) evolution happens over generations
Monkeys are evolving, all species are constantly evolving. Insects, viruses, and single celled organisms make a better example of evolution in real life because they are simpler organisms and therefore can evolve to adapt to their necessary struggles much faster than, say, an ape could, which is a much more complex organism.
As far as apes evolving, here are some examples of primates becoming more intelligent:
We've studied chimpanzees killing monkeys using group tactics. Their diet requires no meat what so ever. Chimps need no meat to survive. Within their society, they developed a system of politics where the gift of meat to a fellow chimp means that chimp will have his back. This is new, a hundred years ago chimps had no complex system of bribery.
A group of monkeys, the simplest primates, were seen taking extremely hard nut-like objects at least three hundred feet away from where they found them, and using tools, a giant rock, to smash them against another giant rock. They actually had the intelligence to use logic and figure out they could take this object, bring carry it very far away to another couple of objects, and get the nutrients inside.
Once again, I disgress, if you want to see a species evolve into a compeltely different species in your lifetime you're going to have to find the secret to immortality. The oldest recorded human being is 3.18 million years old, and most evolution between her and us are less hair, shorter arms and legs, and a straighter stature.
About #2: What he said as it stands is completely within the law. If some student decided to a take it seriously he could elaborate if only not to offend him or her. This man is the greatest science teacher I have ever had so the fact that you're saying its wrong that 1. he has a sense of humor and 2. he understands a science class is an environment where you stick to waht you can prove, it shows a deep lack of understanding.

Because Evolution takes a long time, because they don't need too, because we affect them too much.
Theres alot of factors.

Thats because they got a system that WORKS, they don't NEED to evolve Jona, so they'll be the same for now.

May 24 2005, 11:16 PM
Tell me this then. If we evolved from monkeys where are the half ape men now. It reasonable to belive that if we evoloved then we'd still be evolving right now. Did the monkeys stop for a few ages? Then start again when some sientist thigs their a intelligble reason for that monkey to digging in the ground? Affect them to much? ha. Thats a smart answer for defending them because you can't prove they are evolving. Tell me have you seen these "smart animals" change in any way? Also, "they'll be the same for now", keep saying that untill you die. they all said that. Back in the 60s. "They'll be the same for now." They'll keep being the same because they don't change.
If evolution takes time then loaf of bread roaches addabting to poisin would take years for all the genes in their body to learn to resist it. Adabition is what happened.
"The oldest recorded human being is 3.18 million years old', This info is unreliable and you know it. Carbon dating is can be off by up to 60% and higher when it reaches numbers up that high.
Again istinct is what drives animals to "Group hunt". All animals do it. Is that cheeta over there going to start walking anytime soon. Can you prove that he won't?
That teacher shows a deep lack of understanding of what people believe in. Hes wrong to say that theres no god. Can he prove that? As you know from persona;l experiance here jokin gcan sometimes be taken wrong even if it was just plain fun.

[quote=jonajosa]Tell me this then. If we evolved from monkeys where are the half ape men now.[/quote]
We did not evolve from monkeys. In science class, you were never told we evolved from monkeys. Primates and humans share a common evolutionary ancestor. That is, there was once this animal that evolved here and there, so long ago that it branched off into all the sifferent animals like monkey, chimps, baboons, humans, etcetera.
[quote]It reasonable to belive that if we evoloved then we'd still be evolving right now.[/quote]
We are evolving right now. You are subtly diverse from the natural combination of both your parents genes. That is, you have genetic changes unaccounted for by your parents genes. Everyone does. That's how evolution happens.
[quote] Did the monkeys stop for a few ages? Then start again when some sientist thigs their a intelligble reason for that monkey to digging in the ground? Affect them to much? ha. Thats a smart answer for defending them because you can't prove they are evolving.[/quote]
They never stops. Evolution is slow but is ALWAYS occurring, sometimes in small bouts, other times in giant leaps. If a monkey is born with the genetic tools to survive better than the other monkeys, so he reproduces more offspring then them, then that is evolution.
[quote] Tell me have you seen these "smart animals" change in any way? Also, "they'll be the same for now", keep saying that untill you die. they all said that. Back in the 60s. "They'll be the same for now." They'll keep being the same because they don't change.[/quote]

[quote]If evolution takes time then loaf of bread roaches addabting to poisin would take years for all the genes in their body to learn to resist it. Adabition is what happened.[/quote]
You still don't understand how it works. There might be one tiny gene in their body that needs to change in order for them to be immune to that poison. Well, some of them will have naturally already had that gene changed by random diversity. That small fraction will survive against the poison and continue to spread their race, while the ones that did not have that gene changed will die.
[quote]"The oldest recorded human being is 3.18 million years old', This info is unreliable and you know it. Carbon dating is can be off by up to 60% and higher when it reaches numbers up that high.[/quote]
You also don't seem to know how carbon dating works. See, carbon in your bodie as you decompose goes through this this half life period, where carbon keeps leaving the dead organism. They measure how much carbon is left, and figure what the date is that it had a complete amount of carbon. It's not completely accurate, but for 3 million years, 60% is unlikely. For a few billion years 60% is not likely. One time people ehard, "Yeah well we're not compeltely accurate with carbon dating" and no suddenly evolution was compeltely confounded. Juding by the possible innaccuracy of Lucy's age, it's possible she was born from 2.18 million years ago to 3.20 million eyars ago. The farther you go back, the less difference it makes how inaccurate the dating is. My point still stands.
[quote]Again istinct is what drives animals to "Group hunt". All animals do it. Is that cheeta over there going to start walking anytime soon. Can you prove that he won't?[/quote]
1. They evolved to have instinct
2. No all animals group hunt, very few animals group hunt. Wgales, dolhpins, lions, wolves, african hunting dogs, a few more.
3. The cheeta can walk. Do you mean on two legs? It's unlikely unless a cheeta that can walk upright has a better chance of survival against a cheeta that can't.
4. I can't prove that one day it won't be necessary for them to walk upright, but at this current time their niche requires them to walk on all fours because they are solo hunters and therefore have to outrun their prey.
[quote]That teacher shows a deep lack of understanding of what people believe in. Hes wrong to say that theres no god. Can he prove that? As you know from persona;l experiance here jokin gcan sometimes be taken wrong even if it was just plain fun.[/quote]
He understands exactly what people believe in because he's a devout jew himself. He simply believes in science class you deal with what you can prove based on the laws of sicence. Does that mean any scientist believes they're dealing ina absolute truth? No, but the laws of sicence are the closest humans can get to absolute truth.
