I think I'm interpreting it right, but I'm not totally sure. I know it doesn't demand answers, but I still have two cents in regards to it.
QUOTE What is the purpose of having ancestors, in the first place? Of course, there are very old fossils that exist today and obviously humans weren't around when said creatures were actually alive. But what if humans were created after? Is there a need for us to come from something? There's no purpose. It's tracking our scientific origins, more or less, and also explaining how every species may end up changing through time as well.

QUOTE(Raven @ Aug 20 2008, 10:59 PM)  There's no purpose. It's tracking our scientific origins, more or less, and also explaining how every species may end up changing through time as well. 'Species end up changing through time' is a very broad statement. It can mean that a horse will have spotted offspring, or it can mean that whales changed into horses. Change within a species is undeniable, but evolution does not provide with an answer of how a new species is born (let alone how the first living organism came into being). If it is to be based on science, then we take said changes as DNA mutations which happen to be loss of information, copying mistakes. Every time said changes occur, there is a visible change, which may or may not help the creature survive, but no new information is added into the DNA. Therefore an organism with a specific DNA will mutate and change over time but it will not gain new DNA information to produce wings, lungs, hooves and so forth (this, assuming said organism does not have these qualities already, of course). So, if we follow these mutations through time, eventually there won't be enough information to give the species a change and it will lead to extinction, not to evolution.
