It isn't then of little surprise that Goliath's relatives have evidence of this mutation (polydactyly)- relevant to inbreeding.
Inbreeding would be irrelavant - at least a couple of forms of polydactyly are mendelian dominant traits. If one parent had it, half the kids will inherit it.

Could this mean that we, as a human race, are degenerating, and not progressing as Evolutionists assert? Who asserted that!!?? Certainly none of the "evolutionists" on this board said "progressing!" Fundy nutjobs like those at ICR claim that "evolution" means "progress," but biologists sure don't! Start reading posts around here, Lysimachus.

There's a five-foot-long "human femur" on display up the road from me at Crosbyton, Texas: Page not found – Mt. Blanco Fossil Museum(near the bottom of that page, or on the "tour" page.) Unfortunately, it looks like it has much the same proportions as a normal-sized human's femur, which would mean it couldn't support the weight of a twelve-foot "giant." But that's just details......

Until you can prove the site faulty, it is innocent.
Holy crap, man! "Kanga-Jew?" "Baby Jesus" thong underwear? "Kids, if you find an Atheist in your neighborhood, tell a parent or pastor right away!"? "According to the secular National Science Foundation, public understanding of Creation Science in America has slipped in the past year with only 47% of respondents correctly answering "false" to the statement "human beings, as we know them today, developed from earlier species of animals." "? You are very seriously humor-impaired, at best, Lys. Or maybe just perception-impaired. I feel sorry for you.

I am 100% certain of, as I have the offical governent papers to back up my claims. I'm just waiting for the moment to speil my information.
Warn me just ahead of time so that I can secure my location and don my tinfoil beanie. Where the hell will I find real tin tinfoil in this two-bit town? Can you share some of yours, Lys? I don't want to take a chance on aluminum.

My post 57, this thread. That femur still won't support a 12-foot person, even an anorexic one. Mass goes with height cubed.
