The Origin of The Feline (cont.)

[Zeluvia]

From my memory, I haven't wikied this, but I sort of remembered this in the bath...

From animals I have met:

Chimpanzees and Orangatangs have Hair. But by the time you get down to Baboons, its fur. Smaller monkees have fur.

Pigs and elephants have hair. Cute little baby javalinas have fur, but as they grow up, it becomes wiry hair.

Never got close enough to a hippo, but they have whiskers. Seals have fur.

Baby dolphins have whiskers. Adults don't.

I don't know what the technical difference is between fur and hair. But there you go.

Evolution theory makes people dumb.

Automobiles have epidermis, they just call it metal..

Scales are nothing like feathers, no one outside of those with the need to believe in evolution would ever think so, nor would science think so.

[Jerome]

By your evolution logic, your finger nails are feathers, lol

Technically...

[Jerome]

Right, this is how deluded evolution makes people.

'Technically' we are all star dust... in other words, nothing is anything and everything is all things. This is what scientism does, it perverts the useful method of science into a philosophy, or rather, a religion for those that want to make their own moral rules for themselves .. kinda' like exactly what the snake offered Eve from the start .. strange that.

each feather sprouts in a straw-like tube keeping it bunched up like a magician's trick flowers. The tube degrades and gets pecked and so the plume starts unfurling from the tip down.

jerome i am also drinking, hi! going to look at a dog tomorrow, do you have any thoughts or questions there because i am in two minds on the whole matter.

The foil in my kitchen is a car frame: This is the logic scientism bestows upon you.

I like dogs, if you have the time to care for one they are a great addition to a family.

it's a greyhound, we had one before so we know the ropes, sensible enough to get the dog fully insured for example

and yeah, the kids would be overjoyed

that's from the 'pros' column

[Jerome]

Retired racer I presume?

[gib]

the one we had before was an ex racer but apparently this one never made the grade and has just lived in kennels for 3 or 4 years

[Zeluvia]

I hope you let it sleep on the bed.
