Who knows? Human civilization will probably die out before too long anyhow.

> Billions of years ago nothing came together, and exploded to make the universe?
Nope. We don't know what the Big Bang was. It wasn't Nothing, though.
> It rained on the rocks for millions of years and started life like that, I mean male AND female creatures, or plasma, or whatever you call it?
You've missed a billion years of organic soup, and then another couple of billion years of asexual stuff.
> you, or your great great great great grandpa washed up on a beach to form the first land creature?
Well, you're off by a lot of generations. Also, it's likely our ancestors weren't the FIRST land creatures. I'd expect those to be some form of worm or arthropod.
> your great great great grand pa and ma was apes?
You need to go back more generations, about 5 million years' worth, but yes, we're descended from apes.
> over the next billions of years, what will your kids look like?
I don't know. You don't know. We don't know. The greatest likelihood is that the human species will become extinct and leave no descendant species.

First of all, no one knows what came together to make the universe. However, by the time our galaxy formed and then our little star, the Sun, condensed, some 10 billion years had gone by. The Earth was perhaps a billion years old before any life fomed at all. The first life on Earth was asexual - sex came later, stumbled onto by accident. Plants aren't really sexual - they're hermaphrodites. It would take to many "greats" to list even when my ancestors became human beings and the first creatures to crawl from the sea certainly weren't humans - more like fishes or salamanders. Since no species other than algae have lasted a billion years, there is no guarantee humans will exist that long. Now do you get it?

Creationist, is it true that....?
...You don't know the difference between Physics and Biology?
...That you don't know the difference between millions and billions?
...That you can't think back more than seven generations?
The world is vast and history covers less than 0.0002% and your life time 0.0000025% of the age of the Earth. Your quaint analogies merely try to prevent people from pondering the vastness of the world which is a mere speck in all of Creation.
Your final question truly boggles the imagination. Given the vast diversity of mammals evolving from a primitive ancestor 220 million years ago, imagine my shock when I don't try to specuate on all the possibilities that can occur in five times that vast amount of time.
By the way, I'm not an "evolutionist". Why is it that Creationist had to construct the term to to try to bring down scientists who believe in evolution or the unrelated Big Bang theory?

I think those are better explanations rather than we're all the products of incest and *poof* we simply appeared.
I don't think humanity will survive over the next billions of years. We've managed to hurt our enviroment and we kill eachother over theology and different ideas and opinions like this one. No - unfortunately I think we'll destroy ourselves and become extinct.
Now if this ends up not being the case - who knows what we'd end up evolving into. We might have colonized other planets in billions of years and developed a resistence to certain types of radiation. I'm just speculating, of course. But no one can really know for sure how we'd further evolve.

Wow, I can't wait for you to read my answer! Based on your excellent track record, I'm so sure you will!
No, all of those things are false, they are gross misunderstandings about the Big Bang theory and Evolution. Now what will my kids look like? They'll be dead in billions of years, so I'm sure they'll be reduced to dust. I suppose I could predict the future if I had some sort of time machine, but, sad to say, I don't.

You do not understand the concept of evolution. States that creatures change to better survive. Earth and life was created with the ability to adapt to their surroundings and change to better survive. So when God made the fish of the sea he gave them the ability to change over billions of years to have the best chance of keeping life on the planet when things change. God also sent some of these fish onto the land to become land creatures so that life would be diverse and exist in many places and the differences in life would cause it to continue throughout time.

In as much as I was not around to see how everything came into being (and neither were you),I say, "I don't know ..... YET!" To assume that some god, my less than intellectual ancestors made up, instantaneously farted the universe into being, is absurd. Evolution has a mountain of facts to support it and God Theory is nothing more than the accumulated myths and superstitions of your ancestors which have been dogmatized, institutionalized and mounded into the colossal pile of crap you call ultimate truth.

Simply put, it certainly is not true. That might be the bastardized version of evolution some ignorant, red-faced pastor force-fed into you, but anyone with a glimmer of intelligence knows it's nonsense. Go and get a book and learn something. If you don't, in the next billion years my kids will be scooping your kids out of rock pools.

well, since my kids won't live billions of years, they will look pretty much as they do now, except older.
Who knows what we will look like in billions of years.
We, as humans, probably won't exist anymore.
In fact, if you wait about 5 billion years they will look like ashes, because the sun will have become a red giant and by current theories, it will incinerate the Earth.
1) you're grasp of stellar fusion and your understanding of evolutionary theory is bad, at best.
2) who cares what anybody will be like, if we still exist, if billions of years.
3) focus on the here and new and make a difference.

You're mighty flippant, for an adherent of a religious philosophy that has no real answers or concrete evidence on its side, and has to exempt itself from the burden of proof. You show an idiot-Fundamentalist misunderstanding of both the Big Bang and Evolution, which are totally different things. Darwin did not speculate on the origin of the universe, and not really on the origin of life, either-- just how it developed, given that it is here.
