If you believe that Man evolved from a Primate and deny creationism?

Question

When did that process happen? how many years ago?

Do you think Man was on earth when Dinasours were roaming around? if so, then I assume after the dinasours were wiped out including man, if that is what you believe then what creature was left that Man evolved from?
If you don't believe Man was on earth with the dinasour then how long was it before Man came into exsistence, and why wasn't Man on earth before the dinasour?

1st Law of Thermodynamics :


"Matter cannot be created or destroyed"

question:

Then where did matter come from?

God - Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God..." God can do anything He wants. He is The Creator. He makes the Laws!

Evolution - Big bang theory: All matter began condensed to the size of a dot, spinning around and around until a great explosion occurred

Answer 1

About 6 million years ago.

Evolution predicts that evolutionary change in the fossil record should be broadly consistent with the rate of mutations observed in species today, and this is what we find. For example, the evolutionary divergence of chimpanzees and humans from a common ancestor of around 6 million years ago gives an estimate of 2 x 10^-8 base substitutions per site per year in those organisms. Observed rates are between 1 and 5 x 10^-8 per year, a very good match with the prediction of evolutionary theory.

The last dinosaurs died out around 65 million years ago.

Matter can be, and is, created at random and uncaused. This is shown by quite simple experiments.

A creator god cannot exist, for various reasons.

Answer 2

The Bible doesn't actually give us an amount of years. Many false "Christians" say that the earlier days were actually millions of years. I'm talking about Genesis and the 7 days of Creation. They miss that the Bible says a day as a evening and a morning. Unless you think that the Sun rotated around the Earth once every million years, then you are wrong.

Genesis 1
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

False "Christians" try to say, "Oh! For God a day is just a million years or so!" Those idiots are just pulling this out of their asses. They are trying to edit the Word of God. Why didn't they say this a hundred years ago or earlier when the Religion of Evolution had not been known of? Think about it, where all those Christians before hand wrong? No, it's just these false "Christians" are trying to appease modern ideas so that they can try to make someone feel "smart" and have them go to Hell. This was a brilliant idea that Satan and his legions started.

So anyway, how do I know how many years it was since the first day of Creation? I take the current population and divided it through the how many parents they all had and look at the lineages backwards and I come to roughly about 9,000-10,000 years ago. Try it on a calculator if you don't believe me.

Answer 3

The process started at least 13.7 billion years ago. But before then 'time' is a questionable concept.


No. Dinosaurs went extinct about 65 million years ago. Homo Sapiens has only been around for about 120,000 to 160,000 years.

You have the 1st law of Thermodynamics wrong. Matter/Energy can not be created or destroyed. You can convert one to the other.
In the singularity of the big bang the current laws of physics are thought to break down, so the 1st law does not necessarily apply to the big bang.

How many times do you need to be told that the big bang is cosmology and evolution is biology. They have NOTHING to say about each other.

Evolution is a incredibly well documented fact. Get over it.

How the matter came out of the big bang is currently speculation. However, the fact that we do not yet know does not mean that God Did It. That is what they used to say about lightning and thunder. They were wrong.

Answer 4

What is obvious from your posting is that you either have had very little schooling or you just never paid attention. A few key points for you to research.
Evolution has never said that 'man evolved from a primate.'
Next
You are mixing evolution, biogenesis, astrophysics, and physics and trying to lump it all into one little neat blob. These are all separate things.
Next
Matter can not be created or destroyed but it can be changed from one form to another. Hence the matter of the universe(s) was always here, no god created it.
Next
Our earliest ancestors that can be called modern man date back about 100,000 years ago. The last of the dinosaurs became extinct about 65 million years ago. So to answer your question, no man and dinosaur did not co-exist.

Answer 5

If you ignore God entirely, this is how they say it happened.

The Big Bang created the Earth from an explosion. Somehow, life in its basic form came out of nowhere. This basic, possibly single celled life started to evolve into a more complex lifeform. Over millions of years, it continued to evolve into different creatures, sometimes stopping at a certain creature, other times, continuing to evolve into another. All of the animals and even humans, evolved through various branches from the same single celled lifeform. Primates and humans evolved from a common ancestor and then suddenly stopped evolving as did the other animals that we see today. This is a nice neat package that explains everything without the use of a God or creator. The bad news is that it is unproven and therefore only speculation or a theory with what they believe is "supporting evidence." This theory takes alot for granted. Life came from nothing. We know this to be impossible. Matter came from nothing. This violates several scientific "laws". There are many other "violations" and "loopholes" but most are just swept "under the rug." Remember, the majority of those who believe in macro evolution are atheists. How ironic.

Then we look at creation. Matter has to be created, it was, by a creator, God. Let us notice some examples of the harmony between science and the Bible. "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" (Gen. 1:1) This was written by Moses through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit about 1500 B.C. In 1820 A.D. a man named Hubert Spencer gave the world five scientific principles by which man may study the unknown. They are time, force, energy, space, and matter. However, Moses, by inspiration, gave us those scientific principles in Genesis 1:1. "In the beginning" --time; "God"-- force; "created" -- energy; "the heavens" --space; "and the earth" -- matter. All of Spencer's scientific principles are right there in Genesis 1:1.

Which is more believable? You decide.

Answer 6

Where matter came from is not related to the theory of evolution. The theory of evolution speaks only to the issue of how life adapts to changing environmental conditions by speciating through natural selection.

As to when this process happened, here is a rough timeline.

About 5.5 million years ago, the first hominids appeared. For about another 1.5 million years, they would occasionally cross-breed with the ancestors of chimpanzees, resulting in some exchanges of genetic material.

By 3.8 - 3.5 million years ago, Australopithecines had emerged. Australopithecines were bipedal apes quite similar to modern bonobo apes in morphology, but they were fully bipedal, had specialized dentition that had begun to go in a human-like direction, and a slightly less pronounced snout. Australopithecines would persist until a million years ago.

By about 2.5 million years ago, the H*mo line of hominids had emerged. Less chimp-like than their australopithecine predecessors, they had the limb proportions of modern humans; designed to sweat, dissipate heat, and run long distance, the first such human H*mo Habilis had a slightly enlarged brain, were probably mostly hairless, and began creating the first sophisticated stone tools, the Oldowan industry.

About 1.8 - 1.5 million years ago, more advanced hominids, H*mo Erectus began to appear, and left Africa, colonizing Asia and later Europe. Erectus would be the first to tame fire, make dwellings, and construct rafts. They looked exactly like us from the neck down.

About half a million years ago, certain modern behaviours emerged in the hominids of the time. Homo Heidelbergensis had an inner ear designed to hear in the range of human speech, suggesting language had emerged. We find that ochre, used to paint things, begins to be widespread at human sites. People started burying their dead. Tools began to be made in a way that shows the person had to have a visual model of the tool in their heads (Levallois core technique.)

200,000 years or so ago, the first modern-like humans appeared - H0mo Sapiens Idaltu. They had high foreheads, slender skeletons, and large brains.

40,000 years ago, an explosion of advanced culture took place as individual tribes of humans began to socialize and see themselves as part of a larger "humanity."

There are the basic timelines, give or take a few thousand years.

Answer 7

So you're advocating th "God of the Gaps" theory? Wow. I thought all religious people had decided that was completely against the idea of faith. "We don't know, so that must be proof of God!" Lol.

Matter may have always been here. After all, just because we don't know where it originated, it does not mean that we never will, or that it originated anywhere. Much like energy, if it cannot be created or destroyed, then it is eternal, no?

And no, dinosaurs did not help to build the pyramids. Sorry.

Answer 8

Humans ARE primates. See the system of biological classifications.

Evolution and the Big Bang are two very different things.

Man did not co-exist with dinosaurs. Dinosaurs began their decent into extinction around 100 million years ago. Humanoids/apes appeared around 25 million years ago with the first homos appearing around 5 million years ago.

Answer 9

It depends upon how one defines man. There were several creatures of genus Homo, e.g. H. habilis, H. neanderthalis sapiens, H. sapiens sapiens, etc. Which ones did you want dated? The Laws of Thermodynamics are much abused by creationists, usually the 2nd Law. They are difficult to comprehend and to apply properly. Read much more about them, before you repeat Henry Morris' nonsense about them, please. Men evolved long after dinosaurs became extinct. Morris says there are human and dinosaur tracks fossilized together at Paluxy, but locals carved some of them, and others are ambiguous. One scientist says Morris covered part of one track with sand to make it look human before he photographed it. If creationists lie about such things, you should not believe their misapplications of the Laws of Thermodynamics. Where did gods come from? I can answer that one. Shall I? Neither creationists nor evolutionists can really say how matter originated. Isaac asimov has an interesting hypothesis, not theory, in one of his books I own. I suggest that you read some of his books, instead of just nonsense by Morris, Gish and such liars.

Answer 10

Where did the matter of God come from?

Everything is like a tree. You start out somewhere, be it a Creator, or a big ball of energy, and it branches out over the span of millions of years.

Man was not on earth when dinosaurs were around. There were mammals that were alive when dinosaurs were, they were small ground dwellers, somewhat like our badgers, squrrels and such today They lived while the giant dinosaurs perished, and because of that we are what we are today.
