Evolution?

Question

All mammals including the human race have long last gone extinct due to global warming an plague. After a hundred million years of eveloution the might cockroach has finally became the dominant of the species among the insects. It has grown six feet tall and learned to stand on its hind legs. On it's front four arms it has grown little hands with four fingers and opposable thumbs. It has discovered fire and through leaps and bounds have forged forward with its technology conquering space. But one agonizing question remains. "If we evolved from beetles, why is there still beetles?"

I didn't know we were talking about poodles!

Answer 1

You made my day. Thanks.

Answer 2

Because the evolved beetle is no longer the same beetle. It doesn't mean the original beetles have to all be the evolved beetles.

The evolved beetles CAME from the original beetles, but they are new different beetles.

Edit: a good example is the poodle you own is not a wolf. Are you saying poodles always existed?

Answer 3

Thanks four using your God given intelligence and at least questioning this ridiculous theory.
It is evolution of the soul, not the body. The soul transmigrates through 8 million species of life (amoebas, aquatics, plants, insects, birds, animals,) until it comes to the human form of life. In that form then one is supposed to have the developed consciousness to question their existence and relationship to God. If they don't use this rare human form of life to do so they are considered an animal in consciousness and will in their next life go to the appropriate species or form of body that fits their consciousness. This is all written in the Vedic literature Namely the Srimad Bhagavatm written now in English with elaborate purports by His diving Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada. One must understand the science of the soul and Karma and reincarnation to get a better picture of who we truly are. We are not this body. Anything living has a soul. The soul is what makes the body (or vehicle for the soul grow or move. ) Thanks

Answer 4

Well I guess I'll focus on the beetle instead of the cockroach?? I don't know if your wittiness has gone over my head or if you wittiness failed.

If you have one single population of beetles that suddenly get split up into three groups, each group in a different environment then evolve to adapt to that particular environment.
So after a painstakingly long period of time you will have three different types of beetles..

The original that stayed in its original environment and two others that have adapted to their environments.

Answer 5

The existing beetles evolved from ancient human.

Answer 6

If we have education why are there still the uneducated?

Everything exists in degrees, and what limit ascribed to that are done in ignorance, so all is subject to scrutiny, and most everything is wrong when the truth is revealed.

God bless.

Answer 7

Cockroaches did not evolve from beetles. They are not related, except that they both are insects.

Answer 8

I hate it when people say we come from common ancestors. That doesn't state anything besides man not knowing where they came from. Idk...if you want to classify your self as coming from common ancestors then do that. Im going to stick to the point that I believe I came from a man.

Answer 9

Now that,s funny, I do not think evolution is anything
because for it all to come together only God could have made that happen,,how else do we explain how
wonderfully everything to it,s own time and how is work,s so well.

Answer 10

no respectable scientist has ever said that we evolved from chimps. We both evolved from a similar ancestor. I know its hard for you simple christians to understand.

Show you ancestors some respect for making you the malevolent theist that you are.

Answer 11

Ah yes, a wonderful question asked by Kathleen Madigan. I saw that Comedy Central special too.

Oh you are so clever!
