    What I'm saying is that mankind has never witnessed any evolution, not that there has never been any. Actually I believe that mankind developed through inbreeding at the very beginning stages of life. If one man found his way to earth and was the only human on the earth but found the monkeys or sheep to be somewhat alluring, he would party with the animals. Back then, maybe the sheep were fertilized by the mans sperm. When the offspring started growing up and got horney, they mounted each other and bore more offspring. Then a monkey got into the picture and boinked the sheep. Why am I explaining this? Inbreeding was common back in the biblical days you know.
