i wouldn't be so quick to swallow the crap the monkey people are tossing any more than i would the holy rollers. it would be very somewhat more believable if all the conjecture was based on some evidence that involved more than a single fossilized tooth or toe bone found by accident. the crap muckers still haven't figured out how small limited bands turned into large populations of more advanced design in less time than it took for the monkeys to stand upright. by now even high school dropouts know human inbreeding does not yield the same results that the monkey theorists are trying to get us to believe.
You dont need to swallow their crap. The stories they weave are just educated guesses. They dont know the entire story, far from it. When something new is found it will change all their theories. If nothing is found the story will never be complete.
Personally I find geology a little more factual (since it is based on physical evidence and real world logic) than strange stories about poof, the humans appear. To this day I do not think there has been any physical evidence that magic is real. Zip, Zero, Zilch, Nadda, Nothing, Not once.
