CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

If Bigfoot were real we would have found the remains of a dead Bigfoot by now. Afterall, we find the skeletons of humans from pre-Columbian native populations, so why not Bigfoot?

I have seen Bigfoot myself. He has been missing from my areas for years, but there are very strong rumors that he is about to return. I have seen him personally and know AVET's video to be bunk. The makers of it eventually admitted it themselves. But don't worry, here is a short video where you can see Sasquatch in his natural habitat if you pay close attention:

Take time for granite.
Remains of animals that die in the wild are very seldom found. I hike a lot in the Sierra Nevadas, and I've never seen the remains of a mountain lion, coyote, deer, or black bear; all of which I see on a regular basis.
Having said that, I'm a bit skeptical that we haven't found at least partial remains.

AFAIK, Patterson/Gimlin never admitted this was a fakery. Even modern Hollywood costume designers say that technology didn't exist, and still doesn't exist to make such an authentic looking costume.

Not Worshipped, Far from Idle
The bigfoot species is real, but the Canadian government hushes their existence up in order to secure logging rights to their habitat.
...you know, probably.

One does not need remains, scat or hair would do. remember the world has changed since 1900 and now just a single hair would be enough to establish the existance of a unknown species.
Also the claims re bigfoot are far different from claims of a rogue human or the last of some Indian tribe. Bigfoot is claimed to be an ongoing species, that means a breeding population. Males, women and children. In America, even in the 'wide open west' there is no way such a population could exist for decades without leaving a trace that can be identified by modern means.

You are right. I just read the Wiki article about the film and it is rather interesting. The camera that shot the film works at several speeds. It seems that it was not filmed at the standard rate. There have been two individuals who claim to have been involved but there stories do not match up, one that claimed to have made the suit and the other who claimed to have worn it. At least one of them seems to have been not telling the truth.

I still like my Bigfoot videos better. Here is another one of him at his part time job:

I think you have an oversimplified opinion of what may or may not be possible.

(Not quite sure what Bigfoot has to do with the creationism / evolution debate but still ... 
)
Anyone here ever heard of Gigantopithecus? Three species have been identified, the largest of which was Gigantopithecus Blacki. It was estimated to stand at roughly 9ft 8", weigh around 1,200lbs and may have lived as recently as 100,000 years ago.
It's currently thought they may have been related to Orang-utans and gorillas, but the only fossils we've found so far are a few teeth and mandibles. Some think this is enough to prove that they walked upright but most think there's not enough evidence to confirm this ... plus, it would bring into question whether bipedialism among apes is unique to humans.
If there ever was a "Bigfoot", G. Blacki comes the closest to th real thing.
