We humans are not from Earth, what more signs need those who can't see? Humans,from all the species, the unique without a natural habitat. Humans, can not live on this planet unless we all get together and start adapting the environment. Otherwise, we can only survive and it's not fun. We have to wear clothing, cut downn trees. We get ill and stuff. Monkey us from? We closer to the pigs and not just the hips.


> We get ill and stuff

Just out of curiosity: you do realise that illness is not specific to humans, but also occurs in animals, right?


Of course, yes -hell, even cats have their own AIDS; but what I meant was we get 'easily' ill. I mean, imagine we have to drink the water from a puddle?


What?


You heard the man! Monkey us from?


Hey that bit was for the lols, although it is quite valid to say, just missing plural and a comma. Innacurate in some ways -mainstream theory is not about coming from apes, rather is about sharing a, yet undiscovered, common ancestor. I mentionned the pigs because of promising advancement in organ transplantation, notably kidneys that reached a milesone recently, and I mentionned the hips because human hips and ape hips have an evolution-breaking distinction. I could go on and on, but let's wait for more science, it wouldn't surprise me that what knowledge we discovered and took for granted back then, when 80% of the world population did not know how to read, might be developped today.


I really appreciate your open response! Your writing style is so fascinating, it reminds me of how my dad used to talk (he was Persian, not a native English speaker). What’s your background? How did you end up with these beliefs?


Thanks for the kind words. My heart is Belgian and I'm living in Panama now; Well, I always wondered why we 'evolved to die', in the sense that from my understanding, the initial life forms, quasi-minerals, wouldn't die of old age, just of trauma like cell rutpture or something. There is so much to say so I really cut it short, but eventually I read about how it was probable that first living things came from an asteroid, I started thinking that 'something', call it God if its meaning hasn't been perverted by manmade things, put us there. Something currently above our understanding, and quite extraordinary -what kind of energy to run the universe.


Yes.
