No, all evidence points towards the facts that men are relatively new to this planet. Evolutionist blindly ignore the fact that we have gone from riding horses, to visiting the moon in less than 100 years.
Where are the ancient cities of steel? What held us back for so long? Perhaps we haven't been here that long after all. What else explains the supposed 100,000 years of living in caves as we're taught?
Clearly humans have taken a fantastic jump that not even evolution can account for.
If you won't subscribe to the thought that there might be a God, could you at least look at the evidence before you.
We're being played with and tweaked. The belief that we just "evolved" to make rockets that can reach the moon or orbit the sun is complete ignorance and denial. Why haven't monkeys even started making fire yet?

Hahahaha your reply was laughable, your comparing a man-made item with a living organism; geez we don't completely understand how cars work or anything right? So what your saying is that God made us look so much like chimps because he made chimps too. Hmm so why don't we look like birds, or fish, or dogs, or cats?
The Claim That Human and Ape Genomes Are 98 Percent Similar Is Misleading
Another claim put forward by evolutionists on the genetic similarity between man and ape is that there is a 98% similarity between the genetic make-ups of man and chimpanzee. However:
1) As was made clear in the preceding pages, work on the chimpanzee genome is not yet complete. Therefore, it is not possible to make a reliable comparison of the human and chimpanzee genomes.
2) Moreover, as mentioned above, the results from molecular comparisons generally conflict with evolutionists' expectations; for this reason the existence of a molecular similarity between two species cannot be regarded as sufficient reason to accept an evolutionary relationship between them.
3) Another point requiring clarification, apart from all the above considerations, is the fact recent analyses have shown that the genetic difference between man and the chimpanzee is three times greater than previously believed. Research on this subject states that, contrary to the allegations in some evolutionist publications, the genetic similarity between man and chimpanzee is not 98% at all, but rather is really no more than 95%. An article titled "Humans, chimps more different than thought," which appeared on the CNN website on September 25, 2002, reported the results of this research in these terms:

If a slightly wider study is made of this subject, it can be seen that the DNA of much more surprising creatures resembles that of man. One of these similarities is between man and worms of the nematode phylum. For example, genetic analyses published in New Scientist have revealed that "nearly 75% of human genes have some counterpart in nematodes-millimeter-long soil-dwelling worms."292 This definitely does not mean that there is only a 25% difference between man and these worms! According to the family tree made by evolutionists, the Chordata phylum, in which man is included, and the Nematoda phylum were different to each other even 530 million years ago.

Sorry.
For those that don't click the links here are the first few lines:
New Genome Comparison Finds Chimps, Humans Very Similar at the DNA Level
The first comprehensive comparison of the genetic blueprints of humans and chimpanzees shows that our closest living relatives share perfect identity with 96 percent of our DNA sequence, an international research consortium reported today.
Clearskies is quoting old information, and ignoring the fact that the chimpanzee genome HAS ALREADY BEEN SEQUENCED.
Regardless (even if he doesn't believe this), give it 10 years and we should be able to sequence a genome in 24 hours or less. Time's running out for the arguments clearskies... first the earth was round, then we orbitted the sun... what's next, you believe pi is wrong and the biblical version is correct?

What I'm saying is that Babylon, was not called Babylon; maybe it is today but only cause we call it that. It's centralized in the middle east and I'm no speach expert but "babylon" doesn't sound arabic to me. The name Babylon and the stating of it's kings recalling a story of a flood, is given to your flood story to add substance. Where are your facts stating what these babylonian king's truthfully said about this matter; and I don't want it in english on some site: I want to see the original writings and I'll decode them myself.

Okay, so if ID is a science, what are the predictions that it makes? Where are the lab reports?
Again, serious question. They don't teach any of this where I'm from.
An international team of more than 170 scientists has now sequenced the genome of the rhesus macaque monkey and compared it to both the chimpanzee and human genomes. Their analysis reveals that the three primate species share about 93% of their DNA.

so you know something about programing, at least have a little insight, and i dont feel the need to tell you that DNA is a far more complex system of information holding and management.
if you take a complex code of, lets say about 100 000 lines and add another 2000. needless to say that it has the potential to mess up the whole program.
conway? We are a lot further along than that now! Play with one yourself if you want (repast.sf.net) is a good example and is easy to setup and run as a non-programmer.
dont remember the exact name of the scientist but it built something that displayed some dots on the screen in order of some simple rules (very simple).
my question to you. from what did the primates evolve from???
if god created the word this would be the joke of the creation.
