Just think, how important are you really? ........ ;-)

Well the real point is, Mike, all those years of evolution and
improvement have been leading up to..........me!

He could at least have got the age right. (The Earth is about 4.5
billion years old; the estimates of the time that have passed since the
Big Bang have converged on 13.7 billion years.)

Well, given that most current cosmology would be rejected from a
fiction competition on the grounds of insufficient plausibility,
I am disinclined to criticise anyone for choosing an arbitrarily
different figure. I am not inclined to believe him, either, of
course.

Personally, I like Reginald's views on evolution: "in most people
that I know, the process is far from complete." This thread merely
confirms me in by views.
