Possible link between modern humans and ape-like ancestors with unveiling of new skeleton

The only things that bother me are "What set mass in motion" and "Where did mass come from" <- I just can't work out a theory those.
As for every other thing - death, evolution - I have theories.
But what set mass in motion, and where did it come from?
Almost makes me want to be religious. D:

Remember that guy who performed surgery on an orangutan's spine?
Don't get me wrong, I believe in evolution. It's just that I don't believe we evolved from monkeys.
And how does evolution disprove Christianity? The bible says the animals were created first, then humans. God could've taken the fucking monkeys and evolved them. Same with the big bang, God could be the "force" that caused that also.[/QUOTE]You don't understand biology or science at all. If you did, you would know we did in fact evolve from a common ancestor between apes and humans.
No one is saying evolution disproves christianity. In fact, they have nothing to do with each other. The only people who say that are the ones who are uninformed.
I remember the last time they said this and it turned out it wasn't

Time is infinite, as is space. There is simply no end, only cycles of time, beginnings of worlds from other words, time from the end of time. We are a universe creating a greater universe, infinitely. Don't question it, because the end of time begins new time, and that eventually dies, creating even more.
Wait what the fuck am I even saying?

Any proof to back up that claim? Oh wait, you have none because this is so theoretical getting proof is impossible!
[QUOTE=stone555;21195813]Time is not infinite.[/QUOTE]
Yes and no, the end of an existence creates new existence.
Our universe expands to its max, dies, then is reborn.
My theory.
Shut up I have an MIT/Ph D. bitches.

There you are sir. As far as we know, time is not infinite.
Also, scientific theories are a bit different than a normal theory, just FYI.
No shit there was some sort of connection.
[QUOTE=stone555;21195813]Time is not infinite.[/QUOTE]
Time is non-existent.
It's a term we invented for the movement of mass and atoms.
Anything relating to "The birth of the universe" or "Creation of mass" is way behind human logic and comprehension I believe, and is best left unsolved.

It isn't KNOWN to be infinite or finite, just speculations right now, and yeahh, that's a good speculation, but you can't know if it's true.

You can know if some things are true, but yeah, that's one of my mormon friend's arguments, that things can never be KNOWN, but that doesn't make it any less true.. :(

Based on evidence.
[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;21175265]Haven't they found the 'missing link' several dozen times? What do people want? A catalouge of every one of our ancestors' bodies so we can prove we evolved from apes?[/QUOTE]
There is no missing link. News people just pretend we found it every time someone digs up some hominid fossils.

uhhh
[QUOTE=Gummylamb;21198400]uhhh[/QUOTE]
Shocking isn't it
Welcome to science
Not like we really need to "find" the missing link, there's such strong evidence just through genetics that fossils are just secondary evidence
Pressing evidence. Of course it cannot be truly proven unless we have DNA evidence. But this is the best we have so far. But how is this a stab at the biblical? Unless you are a believer in the literal 6 days, this doesn't new found fossil doesn't do anything new. I wouldn't say evolution is a fact, contrary to popular belief a fact cannot be simply an amass of evidence that points to something. Not to say that the evidence of evolution isn't overwhelming. Personally I believe there is enough evidence supporting the existence of a personal Creator, but to call it fact would be foolish.

Evolution is as proven as things get in science, we don't need DNA to prove it more, we already have that anyway, with apes and stuff. We've seen evolution happen, we know it exists.
