In reply to the discussion: Herschel Walker leads Warnock in Georgia Senate race: poll [View all]LenaBaby61
(6,991 posts)And word is he's not having any debates with Warnock.
His team is trying to get him to do at least ONE debate with Warnock but it's a NO thus far.
Hope Warnock shows up and debates alone. That might help him, but with WHO are going to be asking Rev. Warnock the questions? They going to batter him with questions about Hunter Biden's laptop? Gay marriage type questions only?
You saw what his thoughts were about evolution, right?
The presence of apes calls into question the concept of evolution.
Herschel Walker misconstrues evolution of humans, apes.
IF YOUR TIME IS SHORT
Humans and the apes known today both evolved from ancient apes, who are now extinct. This split occurred between 6-8 million years ago based on genetic and fossil evidence.
Over time, humans and apes have been evolving in their own ways to adapt in their respective environments.
Herschel Walker, the former Georgia football star vying to join the U.S. Senate, questioned evolution during a recent church appearance.
"At one time science said, man came from apes. Did it not?" Walker said at Sugar Hill Church in Northern Gwinnett County, outside of Atlanta, Ga., on March 13. "If that is true, why are there still apes? Think about it."
Walker, a former NFL player, is seeking the GOP nomination to challenge Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock in the November election.
Walkers skepticism misconstrued how evolution theory works, so we wanted to talk to experts who could break it down.
Humans and modern-day apes both evolved from ancient apes, who are now extinct. Anthropologists using genetic and fossil evidence pinpoint it between 6-8 million years ago. Humans and the apes seen today evolved differently over time.
Jessica Thompson, an assistant professor of anthropology at Yale University, said to think of evolution not as something linear, but rather as a series of splits.
"Just as how one person can have many children, and those children can have many children, none of those people will be exactly the same as the others, but they will all still be closely related. As the generations pass, they become less and less closely related in terms of shared genetic material. And also, they will start to look more and more different from one another," Thompson said.
For example, if a person had brown hair, some of their descendants would also likely have brown hair. But it's unlikely every one of their descendants would have brown hair; some may have blonde hair or red hair.
"You would not ask, If all these red-haired people descended from a brown-haired person, then how is it possible to still have brown-haired people around today?" Thompson said.

Your probable US Senator from Georgia, ladies & gents 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻
Tommy Tuberville, ex college football coach, and one of the MANY person's treasonous Fatass45 spoke TO from his burner phone on the day that he lead his US Homegrown, insurrection attack on Jan 6th, that treasonous Ginni Thomas attended. Anyway, Tuberville's so DUMB that he couldn't coach a wet bag to fall apart if he tried. I'm very familiar with him and his "WHACK" coaching.
