    humans are still in the nature and do what humans do naturally. we may see we're different from other animals because we are different from them. we don't use our heads to do head butting instead we use our hands to hold tools for all reasons. we have different natures as you can see. we do natural things to us. they do natural things to them. we have our natural forms and physicality. we can't climb trees like monkeys, can't fly like birds, can't howl like wolfs, ... no wonder they can't do what we can.

    each thing you pronounced is authentic yet on an identical time no longer authentic. This theory-approximately yours exceeded off to me it sluggish decrease back as I worked in conservation and in conservation hundreds of thousands of pounds are spent keeping habitats to take care of species that may not be in a position to adapt swifter sufficient to proceed to exist yet another species, ie 'Us' and whilst if as you assert we are only an factor to that device then no longer trouble-free t i ts to the animal life that may not be in a position to maintain up. even nevertheless there are such countless factors approximately us as a species that makes us diverse from all different species on earth that I scent a large enormous pungent rat. we've finished all that we've performed interior the final 15 ok years because of the fact the final ice age, what have been we doing interior the 600K years previously that? And in case you opt to truly spook your self out seem at what this animal 'us' has finished interior the final a hundred years, all of it looks very fishy as though our very DNA has been given a enhance hormone or some great charged capacity to examine. i'm no longer announcing we are no longer area of natures device it relatively is stupid , yet i'm announcing that there are some distance too many unanswered questions concerning why we've this type of huge techniques and extensive quantities of intuitive understanding and nonetheless completey ruin our very own ecosystem. i'm hoping that the two nature merely tried out an test or there are some stable motives on a spiritual foundation, I advise whether the extraterrestrial beings got here down and admitted to messing around with our RNA and DNA could make extra experience to me at this ingredient.

    ~~~ It is your own ignorance of Reality/Nature that you can imagine anything that is 'unnatural'.

    'Nature' is all that exists, all inclusive.

    'Unnatural' is in the eye and (vain and ignorant) 'judgment' of the beholder!

    "Unnatural" in religious terms? There is nothing that is deemed "unnatural" when it comes to humans unfortunately...man's fellow inhumanity to man and animal is well documented throughout history.

    if it exists and is done it is natural. we do more complex tasks, but they are still natural.

    we can't do supernatural things, so i don't get what your question is suggesting, but i have an idea.

    ok, so i do beleive there is a god that created, but evolution might be his designed system for more complexity...be it emotional, intellectual, spiritual, you name it.

    i think he started things and let them unfold. if he/she does intervene i believe it is so rare that one should still be skeptical and not bother thinking about it. for all we know, all experiments follow the laws of physics. possibly those obscure outlier results are evidence of quantum mechanics. quantum mechanics might be god's design as well, where it is possible for free choice and where his intervention (miracles) occurs.

    who knows, and to a point, who cares. all this stuff is kinda out there, and it's cool to play with the ideas, but not much time should be spent on them because they usually prove to be unproductive.

    There is nothing human cannot do....unnatural is his tendency.... to depart from true nature.

    Ancient Europeans wrote about Ages of Man.

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

    There are also many other references to various

    types of world ages or Ages of Man in Hopi

    (worlds), Mayan (suns) and other cultures of

    antiquity. Giorgio de Santillana, the former

    professor of the history of science, mentions

    approximately thirty ancient cultures that

    believed in the concept of a series of ages and

    the rise and fall of history, with alternating

    Dark and Golden Ages.

    More details of these Ages are available in the

    Yuga concept of the Hindus. The present age

    is known as Kali Yuga (age of darkness).
