Since someone asked: Assume that school, work, other peoples' drama, insane housemate issues, and sleep take up more time and energy than I can muster, and most of those things aren't interesting or aren't mine to write up. (And there was that spoofed news piece ..)test returned, review:
essays: not specific enough, use details to back up thesis
these got switched somehow?<th>Creationists and Evolutionists:</th>
Creationists:
- Young Earth: created 26 Oct 4004 BCE (Usher's chronology)
- Unique Creation: all living things created in final form in the first few days of Creation
- Progressive Creation: several creative periods (waves)
- Extinction by Catastrophe (an Act of God?)
- Single Origin Site: Garden of Eden
- Origin of Life: Divine Creation
|
|
Evolutionists:
- Old Earth: 4.6 E 9 YBP
- new life from genetic change
- Natural Selection determines survivors
- Multiple Origin Sites, Times: seas, land (eg: Australian animals)
- Origin of Life: not adressed by Evolutionary Theory Slartibartifast)
|
|
Theistic Evolution:
- taught in seminaries
- Divine Creation of Evolution
- simillar to Deism -- clockmaker god
|
Food Production:
- first Hominids: 4 - 4.5 E 6 YBP
- Hunting and Gathering -> 10-11 E3 YBP
- control food sources
- 6E3 YBP: Old World villages
- 3.5E3 YBP: New World villages
- Neolithic: "New Age"
- Constraints of Hunter/Gathers:
- very finite food supply
- spaced births of children
- ease of transport in migration, fewer infants/toddlers
- pick between live births
- elderly (wisdom) also not mobile
- Advantages of sedentary lifestyle:
- able to support larger populations
- no need to migrate all people, property
- accumulation of property: pottery (sun dried, semi-fired)
- fine goods: grave goods, gifts
- crops can be stored
- Hazards of sedentary life :
- less mobile in case of disaster
- less adaptable
- population concentration, property breed conflicts
- more complex rules
- grown foods (grains) are labour intensive
- move from free time to drudgery
- health issues: skeletal injuries, inbreeding
- health issues: contagion, no sanitation
- refuse disposal
- lifespan: reduced from 26 - 19 y
- cereal grains: calories, but malnutrition (missing nutrients, protein)
- pulses: (legumes: pods) protein and some nutrient

Be sure to eat and sleep my friend. You won't feel as overwhelmed that way.
