There are publications on bipedalism and sexual characteristics. Upright for a male exposed everything, knuckle dragging for a female does similar.

I was just trying to make a general comment, get my feet under the table so to speak. The OP is 9 years old but I would disagree with the statement. By definition Science is at odds with the three main religions, we do not need religious people to point it out. Also some arguments from religious push the opposite view, that science actually verifies scripture. I have a book on Islam dedicated just to that, I do not have the title (big apologies there, I appreciate citations are key in these discussions, I request you give me till Tuesday to post them) Overall today though, arguments from creationist Christians? Micro evolution is ok, macro is not ok. Presumably because this violates the "kinds" verses in Genesis. They certainly seem to sing from the same hymn sheet and follow the latest additions. For context, my comments come from interaction on line, YouTube, science websites and looking up some publications on the D.I.

Ok noted, I tried get the gist but did not read all the 2016 posts. Pretty new to the site and finding my feet.

I have heard people say that they prefer animals but that would suggest a failing in their social interaction with humans? Anthropomorphising certain animals like dogs gets tricky for me, are they more loyal, faithful and loving? Than humans? What does that mean? We cannot ask them and discuss the nature of their loyalty. Food may equal loyalty, a warm safe house and walkies and that's it. A lonely person with a dog and not much else I can understand the OP. Also rats, very sociable animals, interactive, inquisitive and fun. If that person is not keen on going outside, less people to deal with an ideal pet. As an add on, if you look at the brain the body ratio chart you can see where 'human' qualities could manifest and make animals more agreeable than humans. So by qualities I mean, intelligence, sentience, social behaviours including friendship, loyalty and love. https://images.app.goo.gl/MWTDdREiJ2KEpF119 Oops apologies, one final add on. People who work with animals as a profession could have this leaning, I am thinking zoologists, anthropologists, ecologists and marine biologists rather than lab workers.

Susskind has a series of books too, not too expensive. The Theoretical Minimum series.

Most of the conflicts I have been involved in are of the Evolution V Creation type. The argument details change over time from the creationist side, from experience.

Or Chemists.
