Then it's a theory with holes in it --- literally.
Only you guys call them "missing links".

and I don't need to take a course in evolution just to learn I can't answer questions like, "Where did Eve come from"?
Well, I've got news for you, Bombilla: I do know where we came from --- and I don't need to take a course in evolution just to learn I can't answer questions like, "Where did Eve come from"?
Every theory has missing details. Scientists don't even really know the mechanism behind gravity. However, it's not necessary to have a complete narrative of life from beginning to present in order to see patterns and see what has happened in the past, and what is happening now.Then it's a theory with holes in it --- literally.

As I stated in POST 24, I was under the impression that where we came from was clearly known. (I've learned a lot in this thread [despite the fact that a couple of you contradicted each other], and I'm impressed with how well some of you know your doctrine.)then why did you ask the question you asked, if not to specifically try to show where eve came from?
Yes.AV you believe you descended from Adam & Eve correct ?
What would you call them then, if you were in charge of the naming conventions? Gaps?no, missing link was coined by creationists.
Yes.

No, I cannot --- but what's changed between me and [after-the-Fall] Adam? Nothing. Whereas your line is full of changes and mutations and morphs and who-knows-what-all.So can you provide a complete linage between you and Adam or is your theory full of holes ?

Besides --- I don't present it as "theory".

I get this question in different form - (same answer though): who were the cavemen?I have to ask who creationists think all those later hominids were. We have their bones, buried with their hearths and their tools (and the evidence left from making their tools, and the evidence that they travelled distances to get the best stone for their tools, in one case even a sample of the pitch they made for hafting some weapons) and sometimes even their decorations. These families and tribes walked upright, hunted animals, cooked, cleaned hides (we have the tools they used). Yet no human alive today would mistake them for being one of us - they would look far too different. Who else could they be, if not our ancestors, or at least the cousins of our ancestors?
Note: most of them were far too short for Nephilim, if someone is considering going there.
Note 2: I will really laugh if one of you claims that this is what humans looked like before the flood/split.

Keep in mind that back then, people were ostracized for one reason or another --- mainly disease. So it wouldn't be strange back then for a community to pop up that had "different" physical characteristics.
In addition, people were lazy, people were hermits, people were anti-social, and people also were criminal. These are the ones who lived in caves, hunted with crude tools, etc.
Jephthah in the Bible (Judges 11) comes to mind as just one of these types of persons.
Individuals do not evolve, populations do. if we were discussing lingustic evolution it would be like saying "if english is derived from german, who did the first englishspeaker speak to?". the answer is: thats not how it happened. anglo-saxons were separated from germany and over time their dialect accumulated local colloquiallisms and slang and eventually over hundreds of generations english became a distinct language, unintelligible to both ancestral and contemporary german. biologic evolution works the same way. populations become separated, changes accumulate (mutations), and eventually the isolated population becomes reproductively incompatable with ancestral & contemporary populations.Thank you, Split Rock --- at least I have something to work with now.
Let's assume Homo ergaster.
So now my question is --- according to evolutionary logic, if Homo ergaster gave birth to a Homo sapien girl, wouldn't this girl eventually have mated with a Homo ergaster? Or is it that all of a sudden, Homo ergasters started giving birth to Homo sapiens, who then mated with each other?
These are issues AV1611VET's been over many times before, and knows exactly what kind of answers he will get, but he likes to have people to dialog with. And sometimes, lacking a true topic, he manufacture one, ridiculous as it is. I don't believe AV1611VET really cares what answers he gets, other than to have something to respond to, because he's not about to serious consider what anyone says or waver one iota in his beliefs. Other than that the guy is a pleasant and amusing diversion.then why did you ask the question you asked, if not to specifically try to show where eve came from?
