    Is it safe for me to say that ADAM and EVE could be the MISSING LINK ? Take note .... COULD BE .
    Well, they are "pre-made" then they weren't the link. Why? The Genesis Story was all about "speculative nature of magic".

    Scientifically heres another reason:

    Incest can lead to more disease in offspring


    The findings have important implications for endangered species, which may find mating with relatives unavoidable if they have a small pool of potential mates, say the researchers from Cornell and Binghamton University.
    Using a powerful technique of genetic analysis to disentangle the family histories of hundreds of wild crows, the researchers were surprised to find that nearly a quarter of newly hatched crows result from matings between mothers and sons or other such close family members as cousins, aunts, uncles, nephews and nieces.
    While this level of inbreeding might be expected in small, isolated populations where birds have few mating options, the study revealed surprisingly high rates of familial matings in a large, open population of crows around the Ithaca, N.Y., study location.
    "It's very rare to find inbreeding and incest in wild populations in birds," said Andrea Townsend, a graduate student in the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's Fuller Evolutionary Biology Program and the paper's lead author. "But in some cases, it might be that people expect it won't happen, so they are not looking for it."
    By measuring the overall survival rates of both normal and inbred crows, the researchers found that the inbred crows often died in the nest prior to fledging, and those that did fly off were far more susceptible to such diseases as avian pox and bacterial infections.

    @ CHAD .... indeed the very EVENTS that SCIENCE expounded more SYSTEMICALLY .

    @ TRIP .... ur statement solely projected on LITERAL UNDERSTANDING of the Book of Genesis or to be more complexed , the STORY of the CREATION which we can obviously tell that it indeed is MAGIC if it were true considering all you see around you was made in 6 days .

    DNA Repair:


    Although genetic variation is important for evolution, the survival of the individual demands genetic stability. Maintaining genetic stability requires not only an extremely accurate mechanism for replicating DNA, but also mechanisms for repairing the many accidental lesions that occur continually in DNA. Most such spontaneous changes in DNA are temporary because they are immediately corrected by a set of processes that are collectively called DNA repair. Of the thousands of random changes created every day in the DNA of a human cell by heat, metabolic accidents, radiation of various sorts, and exposure to substances in the environment, only a few accumulate as mutations in the DNA sequence. We now know that fewer than one in 1000 accidental base changes in DNA results in a permanent mutation; the rest are eliminated with remarkable efficiency by DNA repair.

    WASHINGTON – The story of humankind is reaching back another million years as scientists learn more about "Ardi," a hominid who lived 4.4 million years ago in what is now Ethiopia. The 110-pound, 4-foot female roamed forests a million years before the famous Lucy, long studied as the earliest skeleton of a human ancestor.

    Sorry but I remember when the newspapers reported that Lucy was a fake, yet it is still a fraud that is treated as fact? Why the cover up? This is a combination of several different skeletal remains that were not even the same species. I even saw TV documentaries denouncing Lucy as a humanoid.

    Spokesman.com | Who'd pay to see a hoax? | February 5, 2009

    two links provided here: from Yahoo, from Spokesman

    my goodness james, Spokesman provided nothing not even a link. The article was written in a LOCAL newspaper by a certain Alan Alexander, is this guy a scientists? where did he got his basis for his conclusion that Lucy is fraud?

    the other link is from Yahoo, and after the article in the bottom a link is provided that leads to Science/AAAS | Scientific research, news and career information

    and if we compare the two articles the former looks more like a tabloid with no reference from real scientists.

    I say yahoo is more credible.

    people in the old days , has a deep desire to answer the question where they're from.

    the bible did a good job , also the promise of after life/ this satisfy them, whether this is true or not.


    this modern century , this deep desire to understand is through science . we want to know whats before the big bang.

    theories . m- theory and the parallel universes.

    for me the dirt represent the basic elements of a living organism . carbon , hydrogen, nitrogen etch. and the energy that formed the lifeforce or energy is the soul.

    I'm wondering, when the bible said- God created man from the dirt of the earth, could that be a hint from God, giving us the idea that we did evolved from dirt?
    Of course its not about dirt to man malic. Its the question of the creator they kept denying to believe...
