Re: Apologetic Islamic take on Evolution … Or unkind dismissal?
I think humans were always humans, animals were always animals, microbes were always microbes, vegetables were always vegetables, fruits were always fruits …
But all of these things went through evolutionary changes over time, for example, people in Africa developed thicker skin because of the harsh weather, mountain tigers have a thicker fur than the land tigers because of the snow, olive that grows in california is different in taste then the olive that grows in Arab region because of the weather conditions, people in Japan became short statured because of prolonged droughts, gala apple is different from fuji apple, infact there are 20+ different types of apples because of the gene mutation over time …
Having said that, alot of monkeys look and act like humans, because there was a time when God turned many nations into monkeys, because they were rebellious and they didnt want to change their evil ways.
Apart from the references where it shows that the humans that were turned into monkeys died off … So leaving all monkey as simply monkeys … I can agree with the rest of your post …
