  Pale says he's separated from his wife and also calls her his ex. I thought that meant he's still married?? Married with a girlfriend?? Doesn't seem OK to me if that is the situation.

  wt 1973 p568.

  "did you know, for example, that mothers and fathers that stroke the genitals of their fretful babies to keep them quiet are unwittingly encouraging them to become maturbators later on?".

  Evolution Gap - Where's the Fur? Redux

  i am posting a second topic on this subject since the first one became overrun by snakes.. cofty posted a link to a published paper discussing this topic and referred to the information in it as "facts".

  here is my summary of that paper along with comments on it.. one of the opening statements says that:.

  two frequently debated aspects of hominin evolution are the development of upright bipedal stance and reduction in body hair.. so for those who believe this is a stupid topic, it is a subject of interest to many stupid people including the authors of the paper referred to by cofty.

  There are no American tanks in Baghdad! There will never be American tanks in Baghdad!

  cofty, I have a hard time understanding you.

  So this is not putting any holes in the argument presented by the paper under discussion?

  The cooling device hypothesis
  Perhaps the most commonly held explanation for the evolution of the nakedness in humans is that it evolved as a cooling device (e.g. Morris, 1967; Leakey & Lewin, 1977; Mount, 1979; Ebling, 1985). It has commonly been thought that by abandoning the shady forest, the hunting ape exposed himself to much higher temperatures than those to which he had previously adapted. Thus, it has been assumed that the hunting ape took off his hairy coat to avoid becoming overheated in the hot savannah (Morris, 1967).
  Unfortunately, this hypothesis does not bear closer scrutiny. When we compare the thermal budgets of haired and naked hominids (Wheeler, 1992b), we can easily see that a naked skin is a disadvantage with regard to the circadian integral over both day time (it receives more solar energy, requiring dissipation) and night-time (it requires more endogenous heat production) (Amaral, 1996). Exposure of the naked skin to the air certainly increases the chances of heat loss, but at the same time it also increases heat gain and risks damage from the sun’s rays. Thus, it increases perspiration, leading to dehydration; this in turn may be detrimental in a dry savannah environment. A haired hominid in an open hot environment should actually increase its insulation rather than decrease it. This is precisely the trend followed by savannah monkeys, which have a dense hair-coat and are better insulated than forest primates (Mahoney, 1980).

  The arch example does not prove that God did not do it. It may just prove that someone else did it without eliminating the possibility that God did it.

  Now let's say that we believe the arch got there all by itself and then commence to study all of the ways it could have happened and do our best to silence anyone who says that it was built by intelligence.

  The facts are that a paper pointed to by cofty to answer this topic is full of holes as pointed out by other evolutionists.

  The fact is that humans are different than animals and this is just one way that we are.

  cofty, I'm not a psychologist so I can't tell you why you would resort to personal attacks. Or maybe you don't consider them personal attacks and others do. You just called me and many people lazy and the next line is why would you resort to personal attacks. Maybe just a statement of fact? Hmmmmmmmmm . . . . . . . . .

  see how we're off topic?
