Is it believable that the Ts and Vs could develop so similarly despite both starting at single celled organisms?

Trash, quit trying to get the last word. Go start a thread in the meeting hall and continue the epic battle with Kara there. Snail and others, please stop egging them on.

I wasn't edging them on, I was just wondering why Karajorma wasn't acting like his wonderful, friendly self and contradicting Trashy on every turn he makes. I'm not taking sides or trying to be an ass here, but sorry for anything I may have done to make the situation worse.

And I'm sorry for pointing fingers.

Is there any chance we can get back on topic?

Re: Terrans and Vasudans: Too similar?
the last time was here on this subject i got critisized for having a outside the box idea of the way things are with the ancients. the problem is will it happen again?

considering the anceints were almost wiped out. and humans have been on this planet for around 120,000 years. thanks to the chinese. its not even possible to consider that the humans are descendents of the ancients. and considering the vasudans were also around in their infancy its also impossible to consider that these vausdans were also ancients... i do not think these races are even remotly linked.

another interesting point; what did these Ancients look like anyhow?

The Ancients were an advanced race of Neo-conservative snail-like beings. Duh.

Watch the four Fs1 monologues again, all will become clear...

Kappa, stop using the multi-colors.  ****ing hell, it looks like a mother****ing parade in this goddamn thread.  I propose BDZ's and anti-material rounds for this thread.

Kappa didn't use those colors.

Well I guess it goes to show how many people actually pay attention to what others write.

I've heard that idea a whole bunch of times before but I've never bought it.

It's much more likely that the Vasudans were one of the races crushed and subdued by the Ancients.

That's likely in the respect that it isn't likely at all.

i should have known that this would SOMEHOW degrade into a evolution vs. creationism.

karajorma, i expected more out of you.  go take it somewhere else, and leave this guy's thread alone.

Aye, the Ancient empire actually only started eight thousand years ago while we've been here for over a hundred. So it is likely that the humans and Vasudans weren't descendants of the Ancients, but they could have come into contact with the Ancients.

This is most likely to be true with the Vasudans. Most Ancient finds were found in Vasudan space and it's also noted somewhere (FSRefBible?) that the Vasudan homeworld was more barren than expected for life. So the Ancients may have helped the Vasudan species evolve from a struggling species to a thriving civilization.

My personal belief is that the Ancients, in light of there annihilation, decided to implant their civilization and history into the Vasudan's culture, indirectly preserving their species. Remnants of these ruins probably gave rise to the HoL's stupid little prophecy (Prophecy of Light, was it?).

Oops, wrong button....

Anyway, it is possible. First, everything that is stated above about similiar planet+ atmosphere, its a good theory.

The second theory is that of natural duplicating... In england, a type of bird (forgot the name) knew that if it pierced trough the... thing that you use to close a milk bottle (the plastic thing) you would get milk, (or, more precisly, a part of that milk I forgot the word), eventually, those same type of birds in the Netherlands (and other parts of the world) knew that to, however, these birds did not "migrate"

Same can be true for this, humunoid lifeform somewhere,  eveuntually, a similar one pops up somewehre entirely else.

You could just go look it up. It's proovable (if that's a word :lol:).

BTW, Centrixo, just before I wrote Prophecy of Light I wrote HoL.

Re: Terrans and Vasudans: Too similar?
sorry ive listened to people, i'm too serious to joke. i noticed that when someone jokes around i do not notice it.

Words are words, but english was created by a monk in england who was condemned, what are there original meanings then? ovbiously over time word meanings have changed. eg American Slag.

but proof is something you lack to convince.
