Agreed. We are the Third Chimpanzee (the weak one with the big head), I for one am truly proud to share my ancestry with chimps and Bonobos.

I don't care if God's at the controls, nature rocks with or without it. given the audience you're preaching to this isn't too bad...I'll keep at it, on to pt3.

Only, your cadence sounds a bit like a sermon. Try using a conversational tone, forget the camera's there.

HA this from someone with 4 vids, friendly advise from one who doesn't know any better.

LOL! No problem, yer fine. Yeah sometimes I probably do lapse into sermon mode - GRIN! Ah, its just fun to share how *all* of our knowledge is valuable, important, and best yet, fascinating and worthy learning! Thanks for your comments.

We may be surprised to find that previous members of what would later be mankind (living soul), were possesed of spirit, but not the offspring of God, Perhaps they were spiritual in the sense that maybe a dolphin is. Maybe only when the human temple had evolved enough, was it finally inhabited by God's children. It wouldn't take away from the fact that Adam was created from the dust.

[TheBackyardProfessor]

I might be. On the other hand, there are so many interesting options, that I wonder if anything would genuinely surprise me at this point - GRIN!

[canadianbacon007]

We are hardly in a position to judge what flies in the face of God, lol. So I remain ever open minded.

[TheBackyardProfessor]

Ah! A great attitude bacon.....

[ravagetime]

Out of the dust, God created man.

one thing I am struggling to even fathom is tying in evolution, as it defines race...and the policy of the church prior to 1978....the "nigro question" was a profoundly ignorant statement by brigham young....please elaborate.

And in our schools.

A typification of that, could be the Holy Temple, which needs to be built in a very specific manner before God will enter it. The veneration of the temple, and Ark of the Covenent would seem quite logical in that sense, Since we are provided with these types of examples in every other single thing in creation, Gods would not be inhabiting the temples of apes.
