Why does man-kind find it so hard to believe that some very different creatures have walked on this earth?

Question

Mother nature have not always been kind to some very unusual creatures that have walke on the face of this earth. Also why is it so hard to believe that man-kind has played a very big part is the total elimanation of thousand of those species. Now living off of something blood is nothing new in this world.. Also why is it so difficult to believe that werewolves could and maybe still do exist... Now as for centures, man-kind has been known to make love to almost all kinds of of natures creature. They even do such things in todays world via farm animals and they have films of such things happening... And in the time of ancient men or woman, all it would take is a few genetic faults to create a half man and half horse. Man-kind suffers from a great deal of genetics faults to day and even more so in ancient times. So is it really that hard to believe what can happens between a man and a beast that can come into existence......

Answer 1

I actually believe that such creatures do exist. Likely, though, they're smart enough to distance themselves from human kind. I simply refuse to believe that thousands of witnesses, singular and cultural alike, would lie on such a global scale.

Answer 2

The title-line concept was brilliant -- there are things on the Earth that people have a hard time believing (i.e. werewolves), but the rest has some problematic inaccuracies.

First, the things that are provable fact:

A man and a horse would not make a horse/man. They cannot successfully reproduce together at all. They are too far apart genetically for that to work. And a man and a wolf would not make a werewolf.

In all the werewolf legends that ever were, a werewolf was not the child of a human and a wolf. Usually, they were brought about by some sort of magic or sorcery. Depending on which legend, it could be a chant, a garment, a deal with the devil, or a spiritual thing. Cross-species breeding played no part anywhere, sorry.

Also, werewolves have never been thought of as living off of blood, sorry. You would be thinking of vampires, and the blood thing is a myth anyway. And even if a werewolf were the result of man + wolf, they would be some kind of deformed thing, not a shape changing being.

Now for the part I can't prove to you (not that it's less real for it): I am a werewolf, and I can tell you that both of my parents are human. I know that I have no wolf ancestry (that would be absolutely disgusting). So I'm afraid that while the underlying theme is great, the factual and mythical inaccuracies are many.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but you should research genetics before you use it to try and prove a myth. You are an open-minded person, as I can tell from some of your answers, but you are making yourself sound like a fool. And I'm sure you don't want that.

Oops, I forgot to answer the question! The answer is, no one is sure why. I think it is how people are raised. Instead of, "anything can happen," people get the message of "only what you can see is real, and if nobody else saw it then it was still not real." It's a faulty message no matter how good it sounds. But people cling to it because it was established so early on. Some of us are luckier and don't get stuck that way; others don't and never look for what they have never seen. And that's the only way to discover.

Answer 3

real. there is evidence of the early hominids having kin with one yet another (neanderthal with homo sapiens-or others). We do nevertheless breed with different animals, yet they don't frequently stay to tell the story except the genetics are close sufficient (even then many times for one technology). Mules are an occasion, they are able to't breed with different mules becausde they could grow to be sterile interior the subsequent technology There are documented situations of many animals going extinct in the final 2 centuries on my own, like the moa, crimson rhino, dodo, and others. that's not farfetched to think of that maybe some wierder finding creatures died off interior the distant previous. If a werewolf creature (or different guy-beast) have been created, it could in all possibility be like the mule or be at once sterile at beginning. human beings are frequently lacking in genetic fabric. do not chimps have 20 greater genes than us? and others have loopy numbers of genes

Answer 4

My great-grandfather said that he saw a man/half horse (whatever they're called). And he wasn't the kind of man to make up bs.

Answer 5

i understand what your saying very clearly, but the human nature is not know to accept new ideas without proof and are only acknowledging what is present an infront of our faces, unfortunatly its something we all have to deal with... for a loooooong time

Answer 6

I believe you...we arent the only ones...
