-_- how are the first three images connected to evolution when none but the last depict anything alive? Because they have monkey in their names? Barrels of monkeys, monkey wrench, monkey bars. Even in these forums, you'd be hard pressed to get anyone to connect those images to evolution.The first three images deal with evolution; the last image deals with creation.
The challenge was meant to test how deeply ingrained evolution is in the mind.
This is the internet. Unless you make clear what the point of the challenge is you should expect a diverse, but accurate, set of responses.The first three images deal with evolution; the last image deals with creation.

You mean like I did in post 16?This is the internet. Unless you make clear what the point of the challenge is you should expect a diverse, but accurate, set of responses.
I didn't follow what you were getting at in post 16, except that I guessed it was something to do with monkeys. Do you mean that people who accept evolution are more likely to mention monkeys, or less likely to mention monkeys, or something else?You mean like I did in post 16?
My theory is that those who study evolution are more likely to associate images and references to monkeys sooner than the average man.I didn't follow what you were getting at in post 16, except that I guessed it was something to do with monkeys.

If you didn't have image 44 is out of place because it depicts only natural objects.
Whereas pictures 1 to 3 bear all the hallmarks of manufacturing
If you didn't have image 4
You wouldn't have images 1 through 3
Ahhh?Why not? It's just an image...
Or are you talking about that which is depicted in image 4?
Indeed, if we wouldn't have hands with opposable thumbs, more then likely we wouldn't be engineering objects like those depicted in images 1 to 3.
Ahhh?
What else would I be saying?
No. I wasntThe images themselves. Which IS what you said:
If you didn't have image 4
You wouldn't have images 1 through 3
You WERE talking about the images. Not about what is depicted IN those images.
Don't blame me for not magically understanding what it is that you are REALLY trying to say, while saying something very different.
Welp, consider this evidence against that hypothesis. I didn't even notice that 3 out of the 4 images had monkey in their name until you mentioned that there was an evolution association with those images. Probably because the objects themselves have no association with biology, and even if I had noticed the monkey thing, I wouldn't have even made the evolution connection to that without knowing you.My theory is that those who study evolution are more likely to associate images and references to monkeys sooner than the average man.
That's not evidence against my hypothesis.Welp, consider this evidence against that hypothesis.
Why? The idea that man may have descended from "monkeys" is an important challenge to creationists. No doubt the image comes to mind whenever they think of evilution. But to the rest of us, monkeys--and the idea of being descended from other animals--are not of much concern.My theory is that those who study evolution are more likely to associate images and references to monkeys sooner than the average man.
In other words: out-of-site / out-of-mind ?Why? The idea that man may have descended from "monkeys" is an important challenge to creationists. No doubt the image comes to mind whenever they think of evilution. But to the rest of us, monkeys--and the idea of being descended from other animals--are not of much concern.
I'm autistic, so I make associations that can differ from the norm. My prosopagnosia also impairs my ability to recognize certain facial differences, but that one isn't relevant in this case. If you compared my distinctions to the ones made by other people, you'll notice that they are pretty similar to the rest of the participants. If you wanted this to actually be scientific in any regard, you'd have had to wait for, at minimum, 30 people to respond, and had it so that we couldn't see the responses of others and had them influence us.That's not evidence against my hypothesis.
That's an exception.
Forgive me, but don't you have a condition that prevents you from comprehending things like most others do?
I can't remember what it is; but I believe you've mentioned it more than once.
Wait. Image 4 is fertilizer, which has evolved over tim-OH MY GOSH EVOLUTION IS EVERYWHERE!!!The first three images deal with evolution; the last image deals with creation.

Image 4 is the dust of the ground.Image 4 is fertilizer,
Technically, image 4 is an evolved stock photo (from alarmy.com) of ecologically controlled re-constituted soil.Image 4 is the dust of the ground.
That was my guess too.Image 2, since it's in black and white and the others are in color
