If we evolved...?

Question

Why don't we all look alike? Why do we have different fingerprints? Why don't we run in packs? Like the same things? Eat the same things?

Answer 1

Better than that is why don't we continue to change? Why has everything stopped "evolving"? Why are there monkeys if we evolved from them? There are a few jack asses among us but some don't have tails........

Answer 2

We don't look alike and we have different fingerprints because genetics aren't that fine tuned. Also- we really kind of do. It is because we are so used to humanity that we notice the fine differences. Imagine you had to look at a plant ( something we see every day) and a day later you were to pick it out of a selection of 10. Unless the plant had some defect- most people wouldn't be able to... Turns out- same thing with people. If you saw someone commit a crime, and a day later they had a selection of 10 that fit the description- most people find it very difficult ot pick that out. We DO run in packs. Bussinesses, families, churches, they are all little packs. We are all seekers for simmilar things, we like the same things, we just have different methods of getting it. We eat different things because we evolved as omnivores- and with such a selection to choose from- it is very likely we will. Besides, what you like and what you eat, and whether you run in packs is not completly determined by genetics.

Answer 3

Evolution from molecules to man is not possible.
No mutations have ever added information to the DNA.
Gene duplication does not count - that's like saying 2 of the same newspapers contain twice the information.

The various arrangements and combinations of “letters” in DNA provide all the information needed to instruct a single human fertilized egg to grow, multiply, and shape itself into a fully recognizable baby. Each of the cells in that baby contains a copy of that DNA with all the information to operate the human body for a lifetime. DNA is the most compact information storage system in the world; no computer of human invention can approach the quantity and complexity of information it contains.
DNA even contains the instructions to devise the cellular machinery to decode its instructions. Without a mechanism to decode the information, the DNA blueprint would be useless. Even if DNA had managed to evolve the decoding mechanism to read it would have had to evolve at precisely the same time. This scenario is impossible because the instructions for building the decoding unit are contained in the DNA itself.
A vicious cycle.

Answer 4

Mutation + environment

Now let me ask you, if we were created from the same mold:Why don't we all look alike? Why do we have different fingerprints? Why don't we run in packs? Like the same things? Eat the same things?

Answer 5

We do basically look alike just like cats... there are different breeds and different colors but they;re all cats. We don't eat the same things because we're intelligent and have come up with a variety of foods and not all animals run in packs.

Answer 6

Precisely because evolution is based on mutations. Mutations make an individual DIFFERENT from most of the others in the population. Mutations happen all the time. Many of them are harmful, and are not maintained in the population. Others are beneficial or neutral, and may be retained and passed on genetically, allowing other individuals in the population to be "different" in the same way as the individual in which the mutation occurred. Evolution guarantees variation. That's how it works. It is because of natural variation that natural selection can operate. What a marvelous system! What a tribute to the One Who designed it and set it in motion!

Answer 7

Buddy,
tigers and zebras all have different markings. No two animals are exactly alike.
Ditto for giraffe's and dogs and cats and birds and leopards and cheetahs and pretty much any other animal with markings.
As for liking the same things and eating the same things, dogs evolved from wolves and they eat different foods. One of my dogs won't eat carrot and the other doesn't like meat.

But in essence, we all look the same.
We have 2 legs and 2 arms and two eyes a nose and a mouth, with some other bits and pieces.

Answer 8

-why don't we all look alike?
different human populations evolved from homo erectus at different points in Africa, but we're all the same species

-why do we have different fingerprints?
that's not genetic but from growth and liquid movement in the womb. this is not evolution-related whasoever

-why don't we run in packs?
we don't? check out a group of friends walking through the store etc... people still hang out in groups... "packs" are a social construct like families

-like the same things? eat the same things?
if everyone ate / liked the same thing and it was wiped out by over-use, we would all die out. evolution made us flexible. you like things your parents imprinted on you when you grew up

Answer 9

why should we ? you really think god designed us for the benefit of the FBI?
the variability of our genes are why the random array of faces and fingerprints exists after all we only share 68% of our genes with the primates and we eat from about all the available food sources . Also our larger brains allow for our more complicated social patterns and we don't all like the same things . "if" we evolved ?

Answer 10

I evolved from the image of God... with a little help from mom and dad :)
This question goes to show again that evolution is a theory of unbelieving, unrealistic minds.
It sometimes amazes me that some people accept the theory of evolving from apes instead of opening their minds and believe we were created out of love.

again, a great question :)

Answer 11

I don't know about some of them but I'm no man monkey amalgamation mutation accident. My life has purpose. Although my children are forced to learn this garbage in school, they don't believe it. They make good grades non the less while learning about such laughable subjects.

We are intelligently designed works of art. It's so sad some people aren't able to accept it.

God bless
