"No no, that's not how it works. God only hits BAD people with lightning. SATAN hits good people with lightning, God SAVES them from dying. So now he knows that God is on his side and he's really pissed off Satan. "
Hee, hee, hee; good one, Byte. "Now I understand". ;o)
"*Sigh* I'll break out the gear for the massive post retaliation we can expect from this. " No Byte, I'm not Rap, I may get a giggle out of the idea that he's now left himself wide open to getting what he so freely gives, but I have no actual desire to sink to that level. He has to play with himself on that one, tho' I'll no doubt remind him next time he plays it. The idiocy of posting a couple of instances of people making stupid statements or a child praying for Obama as "evidence" that The Left considers Obama a "god" is a pool of muck Rap has to stand in all by himself, unless any of his buddies want to join him.
It has nothing to do, by the way, with him agreeing with anything. The concept is that, by Rap's "reasoning", anyone who can show a couple of instances of anyone on "the right" saying stupid stuff would be right to claim that The Right believes it. It makes no sense, pure and simple, but he keeps right on doing it, and it's irritating, which is his intent, also pure and simple.

I seem to recall the Mediterranean flooding too. Though that may have been a few million years ago, not 10's or 100's of thousands of years.
Yes it does. :) And it was 5 million years ago.
xkcd recently did a long form comic about it. Like I think almost four months of new comic panels posted once every hour. Pretty cool.

Sorry I doubted you.

Niki - not possible for you to 'sink' to my level. You're going in the wrong direction.

I thought we settled this during the Oklahoma tornado alley disasters-- God was punishing the USA for sinfulness and homosexuality, but he was shooting at NYC and Hollywood, and he missed, hit OK instead. God is a terrible shot.

I always pictured that aspect of "God" as a drunken angry redneck with a shotgun blasting into the darkness from his porch, no surprise he'd be a terrible shot.

Hey, at least the concept of continental drift was being taught! Wasn't too long ago, 50 or 60 years, that the mere concept alone was mocked at by "top " scientists.
Has nothing to do w/ why folks are spread out, of course, but still... take the small victories where you can find 'em.

I guess so AU. But still just the notion that the mother was using continental drift to explain why people are the colours they are and where they are. It just made me shudder.
But still, it is an interesting topic, as to how humans became so diverse, at least in appearance. We know from Darwin that isolated groups tend to evolve on their own particular paths. Mountains and oceans do a fair job in keeping folks isolated from one another, or did, for 1000's of years.
And aren't humans, genetically, actually LESS diverse than chimps, form one another ? I seem to recall hearing / reading that somewhere.

Yep. Any two people on earth are more similar than two chimpanzees from the same family.
All the surface differences are merely surface deep.
It's believed this is due to a genetic bottleneck that took place around 70,000 years ago, or maybe another one 100,000 years ago.
As such, it is most likely that any differences in ability arises from differences in environment, than from genetic factors.
There have been studies about twins that would seem to counter this in terms of behaviour after they have been separated, but there's arguments posed against this in the field of epigenetics, and studies or circumstances may have been biased towards similar environments as well. Adoption agencies tend to have certain standards that would probably limit differences in environment.

Well, as we 'drift' away from the original topic, the human genetic bottle neck mystery intrigues me.
I was watching some show on the disappearance of Clovis culture. Though far more recent in history, there were still a lot of fascinating facts brought up, from the similarity of Clovis technology to that found in Europe ( not Asia ) and some curious geological evidence.
Every time I take a peek at the deep history of what's taken place on this planet, it really makes me realize how much we don't know.
