In Response To: Re: New theory...way out there...but good! *SP* (emildlux)

: Here's a post I dropped on the board to an earlier thread. Like I said there,
: I don't want to create a Creationism v. Evolution jihad on this board it's
: just that there are some limitations to the Forerunner/Human Ancestor
: theory in my mind and I would love to hear your thoughts on the subject.

: Here's what I wrote earlier: *****************
: I don't want to step on any toes regarding evolution versus creationism. I
: personally believe that it was evolution. The reason I do is because we
: see evolution all around us in a variety of systems: Social- hunter/gather
: to urban dweller
: Economic- beads/baubles/barter to the NASDAQ and hedge funds
: Religious- mythological dieties to bibles/talmuds/korans
: Biolological- AIDS viruses mutating into drug resistant strains
: Technological- the wheel to the Hubbel Telescope
: Scientific- alchemy to cloning
: Agricultural- plows to drip irrigation in the desert
: Intellectual- racism to acceptance and celebration of differences
: Gaming- Pong to Halo

: Back to Halo. Our history precludes the Forerunners being our ancestors
: *unless* only two made it to earth and they were called Adam and Eve. I
: suppose I could accept that twist.

It's science fiction (and more to the point, it's a Bungie game)... it doesn't have to confine itself to current scientific ideas. The existence of Slipstream space isn't realistic by today's scientific standards either, but that didn't stop them from putting it into FoR. :)
