Below is a link to the Wikipedia article concerning penguins. It is important to note that penguins do not strictly live in arctic zones. Indeed, there are species of penguin that live around the equator in South America, Africa and the Galapagos Islands.
I know other people may criticize me once again (while others will be as intrigued as I am/asking questions), but could the penguins living in Antarctica have at one time been tropical birds, like the rest of their species, who adapted successfully to a colder climate? If so, what does this say about the climate of Antarctica before the last Ice Age? (roughly 12,000 years ago.)
And here is where I address one of the same questions I had in my last thread (possible cultural links between Polynesian, Asian and American peoples): Could there have been a great, trans-continental human civilization before the last Ice Age? (more than 12,000 years ago.) I reject the evolutionary theory that our ancestors were brutish animals. But maybe people needed to start all over again. Think about it- if 90% of the population were wiped out, and say, the only human survivors were the members of this forum, we obviously couldn't live as we once did.
Anyway, I am certainly no professional.
Oh that's quite apparent.
At the same time I have never been institutionalized or indoctrinated by the dominant culture, so I can look at this stuff with an open mind.
Says the one that would rather follow the vomit of a barely cogent theologian as opposed to objectively validated science. You're an idiot is what you are.
