Your opinion on non-human primates (i.e. Bigfoot) in North America?

[ssuchem13]

Also there are many Intermediate forms linking past ancestors (monkeys) to humans, but everytime one is found it creates 2more gaps because generally there is a intermediate form between what we already knew and the new one, which by no way means it doesnt exist but we havnt found it yet. by asking for one "missing link" you truley do not understand evolution at any level... Which would make it impossible for you to think about human evolution at all so you are being both ignorant (uninformed) and arrogant at the same time since you say no one can convince you otherwise

i honestly dont know why you people are still trying to convince him. he believes what he believes, its not hurting you. lets keep the thread on track and talk about bigfoot!!!

Everyone knows Bigfoot exists... helloooo... Are you all forgetting about Harry and the Hendersons??? I assume Harry is hiding out in Canada... That is the only logical explanation... Eh?

I took me 3.7 seconds of google to find a non-exhaustive list of recent human ancestor fossils.

I still stand by my opinion..... humans are not even near being primates..... we still have not found the missing link... unless you can prove me otherwise. I stay by my opinion.. if you want my opinion pm me... also has nothing to do with religion....

...... humans are not part of the primate family... no way anyone could convince me we are part primate... as for Bigfoot, I have no idea

I PMed you, and am eagerly waiting to read your opinion.

There are always unknowns. The only known in this universe is that there are unknowns. - Travis R. Palmer

Wait that's you right?

Here's the closest thing we ever had to a Bigfoot. And early man probably encountered it too.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigantopithecus

I think that these could be a reasonable explanation for Bigfoot being present in legends. Gigantopithecus species were found in Asia, and it is a pretty widely accepted theory that aboriginal Americans migrated to the Americas across the land patch where the Bering Strait now is, and down through all the way to South America. While it is a pretty big stretch, and I wouldn't (and wouldn't expect anyone to) believe it, I think that something that could explain it is that ancient humans passed down legends originally centered around Gigantopithecus and the legends continued across the Asians' migration patters. This would be supported by the fact that the majority of bigfoot legends among aboriginal peoples are in southeast Asia, east Asia, and west coast America.

My guess is your second answer would be "no."

While I think that "lol" is used so much that it has lost meaning, it would be an appropriate description of my reaction to this.

The problem is that the genus apparently existed to only 100,000 years ago...but the migration you speak of was supposed to occur, at the very earliest, 16,500 years ago. That is a HUGE gap of time for such information to have existed and then translated into "folklore."

maybe for 84k years, the conditions were never right for making fossils of these dudes. plus i don't believe in carbon dating because i don't understand it.
