The whole period of evolution of man on earth, since he was a unicellular organism until he acquired the graceful and beautiful form it has now, can be condensed and observed in the nine months of gestation in the womb. In that environment, an aquatic medium, life begins as a unicellular organism and takes the shape of a beautiful baby at the end.
Life on earth started in the sea. An aquatic medium like the womb. Khalil Gibran says: "There must be something strangely sacred in salt. It is in our tears and in the ocean." That unicellular organism was however always destined to be a man and not anything else.
During the gestation the fetus may resemble a tadpole or may look like the fetus of an ape. Nevertheless it always was and had the potential to become a human being. So even though fossil remains may prove that human beings at some point during their evolution were balancing themselves from trees from their own tails, they were always human beings and not apes.
What do you think?

Given enough time, energy, and knowledge, EVERYTHING has the potential to be ANYTHING else. If potential is the same as actuality and your standard for what qualifies as a human, then everything is human.

The principle of creation/evolution is: something starts as an idea, then through many and various stages of trial and error(consider Thomas Edison tried thousands of different materials before he deteremined a filament that was workable for a light bulb) a fully manifested creation comes into existence. The universe was an idea that through many processes, many of them failed, as with the light bulb, (extinction etc.)progress has been made toward the final manifestation.

We do not know if mankind is the final product. It would seem unlikely since man has still has so many limitations. The most logical conclusion to this senario is that we would ulimately manifest as God. This would expain how the end product takes us to the point of beginning where and how it all started.

Water is needed for the type of life on this planet. 95% of the water on this planet is considered salt water - is it so hard to believe we have salt in our bodies?
Evolution did not happen. Evolution IS. It is a measure of the passing of entropic time, is always changing, and will never reverse. When it comes to living organisms, the more complex the organism is, the more stable it is. Humans are the most complex, and stable life form, and that is why they are on the top of the food chain.

confident we are actually not coming from apes. Evolutionists additionally declare that apes and people developed one after the other. (Then, how and from which organism did we evolve???). once you examine out genetic code in all organisms, all of them have that code, and the steadiness of their cells (think of a few million million chemical ingredients in a cellular working devoid of any worry) and with their ecosystem, and likewise even although they do no longer recognize what they're, the place they arrive, they stay in general with peace. --------- the theory of evolution is a theory that fails on the 1st actual step. the rationalization is that evolutionists are actually unable to describe even the formation of a single protein. Neither the guidelines of risk nor the guidelines of physics and chemistry grant any risk for the fortuitous formation of existence. Does it sound logical or useful while no longer even a single risk-shaped protein can exist, that tens of millions of such proteins blended in an order to offer the cellular of a residing component; and that billions of cells controlled to type and then got here at the same time by utilising twist of destiny to offer residing issues; and that from them generated fish; and that people who exceeded to land became into reptiles, birds, and that that's how each and all of the tens of millions of diverse species in the international have been shaped? whether it would not look logical to you, evolutionists do have self assurance this delusion. although, that's basically a theory-or particularly a pretend faith-by way of fact they have not got even a single piece of evidence to verify their tale. they have by no ability stumbled on a single transitional type at the same time with a a million/2-fish/a million/2-reptile or a million/2-reptile/a million/2-poultry. Nor have they been able to tutor that a protein, or perchance a single amino acid molecule composing a protein, would have shaped below what they call primordial earth circumstances; no longer even of their elaborately-geared up laboratories have they succeeded in doing that. on the different, with their each attempt, evolutionists themselves have shown that no evolutionary technique has ever got here approximately nor ought to ever have got here approximately at any time in the international.

well what defines a human being is its dna
and apes had different (but very similar) dna'
but the way your thinking is how i view time
something is meant to be or do something no matter what
we just dont know what

so although apes are not human beings
they were always meant to involve into human beings

Strictly speaking, biological evolution is the process of change over time in the heritable characteristics, or traits, of a population of organisms. Heritable traits are encoded by the genetic material of an organism (usually DNA). Evolution generally results from three processes: random mutation to genetic material, random genetic drift, and non-random natural selection within populations and species. In everyday use, evolution is also used more generally to refer to the greater outcomes of these processes, such as the diversification of all forms of life from shared ancestors, and observable changes in the fossil record over time.
Natural selection, one of the processes that drives evolution, results from the difference in reproductive success between individuals in a population. It has often been called a "self-evident" mechanism because it logically follows from the following facts: 1.) natural variation exists within populations and species; 2.) most of this variation is heritable; 3.) organisms are superfecund (produce more offspring than can possibly survive); 4.) life is a struggle for existence in a world with limited resources; and 5.) in any generation, successful reproducers necessarily pass their heritable traits to the next generation, while unsuccessful reproducers do not. If these traits increase the evolutionary fitness of the individuals that carry them, then those individuals will be more likely to survive and reproduce than other organisms in the population. In doing so, they pass more copies of those heritable traits on to the next generation, causing those traits to become more common in each generation; the corresponding decrease in fitness for deleterious traits results in their becoming rarer. In time, this can result in adaptation: the gradual accumulation of new traits (and the preservation of existing ones) that generally result in a population of organisms becoming better suited to its environment and ecological niche.
Though natural selection is decidedly non-random in its manner of action, other more capricious forces have a strong hand in the process of evolution. In sexually reproducing organisms, random genetic drift results in heritable traits becoming more or less common simply due to chance and random mating. This aimless process may overwhelm the effects of natural selection in certain situations (especially in small populations).
Differences in environment, and the element of chance in what mutations happen to arise and which ones persist, can cause different populations (or parts of populations) to evolve in divergent directions. With enough divergence, two populations can become sufficiently distinct that they may be considered separate species, in particular if the capacity for interbreeding between the two populations is lost. Evidence such as the wide distribution of the canonical genetic code indicates that all known cellular organisms are ultimately descended from a common ancestral population.
While the idea of evolution (as opposed to the fixity of species) is ancient, the modern concept of evolution by natural selection was first set out by Alfred Wallace and Charles Darwin in a joint paper to the Linnean Society, followed by the publication of Darwin's 1859 book, On the Origin of Species. In the 1930s, the modern evolutionary synthesis combined Darwin's natural selection with Gregor Mendel's genetics. As more and more evidence was collected and understanding of the processes of evolution improved, evolution became the central organising principle of biology.
