@spiller1975 Another possible answer is that our DNA differences combined with our personal experiences are what make us unique. THAT is why I'm not you and you are not me. There is no need to use any magical being to explain the differences here.

@loko5555 "Worried about moral"?

Oh, sorry, I see you're not a native English speaker.

But I don't understand why you ask this question

at the bottom of my ANSWER to the question.

One of the great crimes of Xianity

is that Europeans and Americans spread it around the world,

often at gun point,

and now that WE are moving past it to Reason

the developing countries are being held back by the religion.

@Imaginefree69 you are worried about moral anyway...why do you think your worried about moral?.

[Imaginefree69]

@loko5555 haha! How about this- Evolution supplies all that is needed for the development of codes of conduct that preserve and facilitate survival and co-operation. Such sensitivities in no way support any particular god. In fact, as Christians believe that their most heinous acts will be magically vanished and forgotten via human sacrifice, they actually have very little incentive to act in a moral manner. Hmmm.. That explains a lot.

@Imaginefree69 ok i did it all and im not happy, give me another one

If your neighbours work on Saturday, kill them.

If your child throws oatmeal at you, kill him.

If your sister has premarital sex, kill her

(but don't think twice about her sex partner).

If the folks in the next town aren't Christians,

kill them all and take their baby girls home for sex slaves.

It's all there, advice for a perfect life.

I don't mean to be rude, but.. What does that have to do with evolution? That really makes no sense... You might as well have said "Ask someone an "evolutionist" why is an invisable pink unicorn invisable?"

No, a gene fairy does not decide who ones parents will be. Natural selection does, there is something in your parents that they found attractive(sexual selection) they mated, and produced you/me. Evolution does not suggest it is desteny you or I exist. All the more reason to appreciate life

that is a stupid comment, it makes no sense what so ever. I am not you BECAUSE my parents DNA made me and it was decided when dad fucked mom.

[slovakmath]
