II bet the tempeture in the Garden of Eden was perfect all the time. Adam & Eve ate the Apple and it got cold for the first time. Adam asked God for some fur like all the other animals have and God said, too late, so they covered up with fig leafs and thats why humans dont have hair

In all these years humans have purportedly been around- wouldn't the Eskimos or Inuit people have 'evolved' their own fur to keep them warm and lessen the energy expended in maintaining their core body temperature and chasing after animals to wear their fur?

Man did not walk to Alaska the first day out of the jungle. Also evolution has taken hundreds of thousands of years. It does not just happen overnight. When man did begin to conquer the planet he had animal fur on him and not the genes to grow a pelt of fur.

14,000 years or so seems adequate if moths can evolve darker coloration to camouflage themselves in a couple hundred years. I'm just saying... The system doesn't really seem very good. I think there is a good reason we have animals. Because man cannot do anything alone. We need them. Though we artificially replicate their features at the cost of the planet; they fed us, clothed us, helped us build society and win wars. We are appointed to be stewards unto animals for that reason, in a mutually beneficial relationship. In the same way I think there almost needs to be imperfection in every creation... Otherwise we would not all be the puzzle pieces with some parts in excess and some sections missing, to congruently fit together and coexist.

I agree that we have always needed the animals. I also think we should be good stewards, but appointed ? I think not.

why did man lose his fur only to have to seek it out again in the future?

Ok, fair enough. I've not entered this discussion with the expectation that any one of us knows or will find 'the' answer if there is one. I'm passionate about science, but I also believe in god. There are many holes in both science and man's interpretation of religion, but I always liked the fact the bible says this

"Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth. The fear and dread of you will fall upon all of the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air, upon every creature that moves along the ground, and upon all the fish of the sea; they are given into your hands."

But also says this

"Whoever is righteous has regard for the life of his beast"

And

"For it is written in the Law of Moses: Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain."

Getting a little off topic but I think man and beast were created codependent. There is much we both lack in different aras, and we complete eachother.

Okies, I'm done now before I completely derail the thread lol

Carry on

There's plenty of scientific evidence that actually support the Earth being 10,000 years old. It's hard to be refuted, too.

I don't know what to think yet, but I have some ideas.

I somewhat passionately disagree. I have not seen any evidence that earns the adjective "scientific" for the earth being any younger than a few billion years. If you have any link from unbiased, neither religious nor virulently antireligious sources, I'll prick my ears up. So far the ONLY source I've encountered for "theories" for a young Earth are shamelessly doctrinaire religionist sites, or the endless dreary procession of blogs that don't have an original thought among them but chew the same partisan cud from those same shameless sites over&over.
