We may have evolved more than once. Humans may have lived before and got wiped out.

We've been on this planet for millions of years along with dinosaurs and other creatures, yet my savior walked this earth only 2000 years ago?


Where did all those people go when they died?



Wow.

That's why I have a problem with EVOLUTION.

God may have been waiting until his creation was properly evolved before he sent Jesus down.

Or maybe god was surprised at how much we evolved, and he decided to send a company man down.

Wasn't aged with carbon dating. Carbon dating, I believe, is useless for things older than tens of thousands of years old.

And this doesn't mean the potential creature that left these prints is a direct ancestor of humans. The authors propose it as a possible case of convergent evolution.

Well, the Bible does specifically refer to some Old Testament figures being in Heaven, and it does so in red letters, so there you go...

Then maybe the "out of Africa" theory isn't entirely true, and and different species of humans developed independently of one another.

Which is a simple explanation. This footprint doesn't disprove evolution, it only challenges the timeline.

I don't think carbon dating works for rocks anyway.

We evolved only once.

HOWEVER, it was longer ago than is currently generally accepted.

We flourished in the very distant past, reached an advanced state with a technology that took a different path than what we have today, and that culture was wiped out by a meteorite impact that ended that glacial maximum and flooded the cities of the time.

That's where the universal flood myths come from.

The survivors came ashore in what's now Iraq and founded a precursor to what would become Babylon, where written language just popped up for the first time out of nowhere (as our accepted history has it), where they used a ratio-based geometry with base 60 notation that was able to make more precise calculations than our geometry, and where all western religions took their original shape.

It doesn't involve aliens. It involves a much larger scale and more hardcore version of what just happened to Houston occuring to an advanced civilization that barely managed to survive in any way. The few survivors seemed otherworldly, angelic, or god-like to the primitives they encountered after they made their escape. A small amount of these survivors' knowledge and a memory of what happened to them encoded in allegory has been passed down through the eons by certain secret societies. Some very pale shadow and a weak echo of who they were is the great occult secret borne by a group or groups that we call the illumianti.

I believe they use radiometric dating for rocks, which is spot on.

It's quite possible that we are just one iteration of mankind, the latest in a string.

Prior iterations may have been much more advanced than we are now and then been wiped out entirely.
