Sasquatch or big foot debate

[Munch]

That chimp was awesome...any who maybe bigfoot are just humans living in nature like they should.

 

[~Abyss~]

A r bit off topic, but I'm done with this debate anyways. It's hard for my mind to comprehend the people on here who admit theres no evidence and still believe. Even that post where they say they'll believe it until it's unproven it doesn't work that way. What is there to disprove? Jeez I have a headache.

Certain religions, which count over 1/2 the worlds population, are basically devoid of scientific facts or 'evidence'. Suggested reading: Mass hysteria aka collective obsessional behavior.

Ah, I really like this sentence. This might be my new signature, who knows.

Actually, it's very easy to comprehend (take in the meaning of) this. What is difficult is comprehending the comprehending. The third iteration is probably an irrational number and the fourth, a black hole. Where were we? (IE, you can comprehend the irrational but the result is rationalized irrationality which can only be irrationally rationalized. Get it?)

Some of my friends say (that i do think is a good reason why 'bigfoot' is not evidentally proven to exist)"They do probably exist but are rarely seen because they are afraid of light and prefer a darker place to stay and does not like to be disturbed."Any thoughts or opinions on this?

 

[LV-426]

I think Sasquatch is rarely seen and hasn't been discovered because it doesn't want to be discovered. I read somewhere that the smartest animal in the world is the one that hasn't been found. Humans destroy everything it's a sad fact.

Who said humans were the only intelligent life on earth?

Chimpanzees have better memories than us.

" Ayumu had many sessions of practice on their task before terminal performances were measured; their human subjects had none. The present report shows that when two humans are given practice in the Inoue and Matsuzawa (2007) memory task, their accuracy levels match those of Ayumu."

Of all the animals that lived on earth *tears* only 10% exists today

Wait? What? There's a debate?

Welcome to life, the survival game.

Welcome to life, the survival game.

True humans destroy everything and on the average of 17 species of animals becoming exitinct every year, what will my kids ever get to see.

You do realize the biggest percentage of extinct species occurred before humanity came on the scene, right? I know humans are messing things up for the planet, but, how you worded it, it sounds as if you are saying people caused that 90+% extinction.

New technology, a whole new advancement in human history.

Well, the shaman theory doesn't hold up in the summer first of all. Second, Canada, Australia, Indonesia, and other countries also have similar animals. The Yowie, Orang Pendek, Bigfoot, and Yeti, are all very similar in their descriptions.. Why would different countries across the world have similar, constant, descriptions? Also, the native americans have legends and drawings in caves of them. Hair samples have been tested by professionals and have been found not to match any other animals. Footprints have been found to not be made by humans as the stride length and gait cannot be performed by humans. While some TV shows like Monster Quest are not good documentaries, some shows are, but they are not very popular, and so don't air that often. Yes, people do fake photos, videos, and other such evidence, but there is also real stuff too.

Also, I don't believe in UFOs, monsters, ghosts, ESP, and I never thought about the Bermuda Triangle much, so for now, no, and it will probably stay that way until I see good evidence.

Psychedelic mushrooms grow on most continents, ayahuasca vines in the amazon, peyoti cacti...

Honestly I believe in the fact that there MAY be an unidentified creature out there. As for ufos I believe. It would make the human race ignorant to believe that we are alone. As for ghosts I highly believe. I was supposed to have a brother and a sister. I was supposed to die... But they died and somehow I lived. When I was a child I would constantly see things and one time I even told my mother the boy was in the room (just me and her too) when we moved into our current house we found out an elderly lady had died here. I saw her (sware to the god I believe in!) and my dog did too. My parents heard noises and they are constantly waken by loud knocks. In a picture of my dog a face can be faintly seen! We ha the house blessed and now its gone. It was enough to convince.

There's no evidence for life outside our own little world. That being said we know what it takes to have a suitable enviromenet for life and given the number of galaxies it's very likely that there is some sort of ET. But for an intelligent life to travel lightyears just to float around our atmosphere without actually making contact seems unlikely to me. Don't get me wrong I beleive UFO's are real I'm just saying there not neccesarilly alien space crafts. I highly skeptical of your ghost claim, the idea of "living" after death is horrendous to me. Even if claims of heaven are horrible, eternity anywhere is hell. And to think that the "souls" of a person would just stay wandering around a house only to be able to knock on a door or create a faint image of a shadow until someone comes with their magic scented oils and magic water say a few words and there gone forever is a very ludicrous claim.

 

[cantthinkofone]

No she was trying to protect what was hers. And they didn't use those oils. The magic crap is bogus. Being highly religious we just ha our pastor come in and say some prayers. She had a crap ton of roses and they were torn down in repairs and such. Only two exist. She started doing stuff when we tore one down. Since we have planted some more and the pastor came in. As for ufos I believe they could be sourveying our planet just like we send "ufos" to sourvey other planets.

Animals have existed longer than humans have. More time and natural selection, yes, but no one can deny that humans are a major cause, even if they might not be the largest.
