    In the beginning the universe was created.

    This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

    Well exactly, because evolutionarily we do still have bodies that should be covered in fur, a lot of fur.

      Nah man. “Evolutionarily” doesn’t give a fuck about anyone over 30 because you’ve already had enough kidlets and are about to die from a blood infection that took hold from a rotten tooth.

      Nah. We lost fur hundreds of thousands of years ago and never needed it again to survive several ice ages. So I’d say we’ve definitely evolved past fur thanks to the ‘advanced’ tool usage of… clothing.

        Hundreds of thousands of years is not much time in evolutionary terms and my point is the shape of our bodies has not really caught up with our loss of hair and particularly in age we can still look a little unaesthetic. We look exactly like what we are, an animal that is supposed to have fur that has been shorn.

          Our loss of hair is caused by the EXACT same process that defines the rest of our bodies, so it’s absolutely stupid to say we haven’t “caught up” with losing hair…

            I did quickly start to answer your reply but I had to delete it and step away from it for a while because I became increasingly astounded by your argument. Is it genuine that you have no conception that elements in a system can run at differential rates. I do not mean to limit that to evolutionary science, I mean it is true of any system in the world or anything that can be defined as systemic which is essentially everything. So if you spoke to your mother and father in any given interval of time you could only conceive of talking to them for exactly the same duration and word count, you cannot fathom that within that system you might talk to one more than the other given only natural constraints on that system. You are fundamentally misunderstanding not just evolution but the nature of systems and so the nature of the world you find yourself in.

    it’s been wrong for as long as i can remember. perhaps longer. it’s always been wrong, as far as i know.

    it’s still wrong…

    …but for the first time, it seems to be getting less wrong.
