@gungasnake,
I don't really need to counter that as I already say in the piece you quoted from my first post that I didn't personally believe that.
I merely wanted to show that even a ridiculous notion based on alien intervention is still, logically, much sounder than any notion based on God. Observe:
"How did we get from Neanderthal to modern man? I am modern man. I live on a planet. There are other planets. Other planets may have things living on them. Other things could have brought man to earth."
There's a chain of reason there, albeit preposterous. In
"How did we get from Neanderthal to modern man? A god made us out of clay."
there is not.
Just as I said in my original post, however, my take on it is:
"How did we get from Neanderthal to modern man? There is a gap in the fossil record which is temporarily meaning we cannot see direct human evolution. I can, however, see it in all other fossils of all other species, even in those of earlier hominids. Ergo, it must be the same with the more recent ones."
No doubt we will one day find the fossil. A long while before we prove there's a God.
