re: Do deniers of evolution believe in other species of human?

Even that chart is BS. It shows a massive dip in world population due to the plague. Yet the plague didn't decimate Asian populations. And Asians make up over half the current world population.

So there is no mathematic formula that can justify the spike in this century, when we know humans have lived to the age of 70 since before Roman rule, and there were triple and quadruple the number of births per family in past generations

Add to that the fact that language, domestication of animals, farming techniques are all traced back to a geographic area in Turkey 8,000 years ago, casts doubt on the ability of random evolution events sprouting a worldwide population from as far back as 50,000 years ago

I'm not sure what you're arguing? There's no magic to how 1000 people reproduce much more slowly than a billion people. Couple that with the fact that people in most areas of the world during most of history never made it past childhood, and you have your answer.

Its mathematically impossible to only have 108B births on the planet over 50,000 years. So there is no way we 'evolved' into our present form that long ago. And if we evolved faster than our scientist are currently guessing at, then we probably didn't evolve at all.

Based purely on population statistics. If we started at just 2 people 50K years ago, within 1,000 years there would have been more than 8B surviving births. That's because human population roughly doubles every 25 years. Which is verified in the growth of the US, since it its inception

In fact, the largest population growth came during the most difficult of times, before medical and industrial developments. People needed multiple births in order to survive: 38.8% growth up to 1810. And before you say IMMIGRATION, only 120K people had immigrated to the US by 1810. We were hard to reach, actually

The lowest growth rates have been since the industrial age. World population doubles about every 30 years now. Meaning we grew at a faster pace when we first began reproducing that we have in an advanced society. The current guess is that the population grew very slowly from 10,000 BCE to 1700 (by 0.04% annually). Humans would not have survived 50K years ago with only a .04% annual growth rate. That's only 1-2 new persons per every existing person, every 25 years

So what I am saying is, we have grown exponentially since our appearance on Earth, up until we actively started preventing it. And that no way in hell was that 50,000 years ago

Mere humans may find it difficult to reconcile Intelligent Design and evolution, but I assure you, God has no problem reconciling to two.

And yet Christians are nuts for believing a flood killed everyone but 8 folks?

An extinction event is powerful enough to kill off all life. Or its not. Otherwise its just a myth designed to justify why evolution numbers don't match up to actual reproductive math

Humans are supposed to have nearly become extinct about 70,000 years ago from the Toba volcano explosion. Only about 3,000 people on some Ugandan mountain survived.

Is this supposed to be a gotcha? Same question re: all of the other idiotic posts in this thread. Maybe read scholarship on these issues instead of running here with your latest Reddit drivel.

You believe in survival of the fittest but don’t think people should compete for resources. Ha. And you call others science deniers? You are a living hypocrisy.
