I'm sure that many of my True Christian™ brethren and sistren will agree that liberal doses of castor oil is an integral part of any schedule of rigorous fasting, prayer and purging. But did you ever wonder what the word "castor oil" means? It means literally "beaver juice". Castor is beaver in Latin.

From this etymology: Modern castor oil is first recorded 1746; it is made from seeds of the plant Ricinus communis but supposedly possesses qualities (and taste) similar to those of beaver juice, and thus so named.

So what it is about beavers and their juice? Take a look at this old manuscript. A hunter and two dogs have caught a beaver - and the beast bites off its own testicles:



Since ancient times, beavers' testicles have been valued for making medicine. When the beaver is unable to escape from the hunter, it will bite off its testicles and throw them to the hunter.

Pliny writes in his Natural History 8.47: The beavers of the Euxine, when they are closely pressed by danger, themselves cut off the same part, as they know that it is for this that they are pursued. This substance is called castoreum by the physicians.

Or take a look at this old manuscript: There is an animal called the beaver, which is extremely gentle; its testicles are are highly suitable for medicine. Physiologus says of it that, when it knows that a hunter is pursuing it, it bites off its testicles and throws them in the hunter's face and, taking flight, escapes. But if, once again, another hunter is in pursuit, the beaver rears up and displays its sexual organs. When the hunter sees that it lacks testicles, he leaves it alone.



If you peruse the unfortunately named Beaver gallery, you'll see many examples from literature. Here's one more:



So what has all this to do with evolution? Well, if you study the beaver gallery closely, you can't help noticing that these beavers look nothing like today's beavers. An EVILutionist would of course say that the beavers have EVOLVED. Isn't that just too dumb? How can beavers evolve, when they bite off their testicles?

Sometimes I wish these silly monkey worshipers would think before they present their stupid opinions and theories as facts. Do they even know how stupid they sound?

*Whew*, when I saw the title of this thread I thought.....well, never mind.
There are some animals that are not much changed since they first came to be. The crocodile is one.

One would assume it would have mated and had the chance to pass on its genes before biting off its gonads. Not only that, but no doubt there are many beavers in the wild who never have to worry about hunters.Thus, not every beaver bites off its testicles. If they all did, you'd have a case. As it is, you don't. Sorry.

Well I never!!

To be honest with you I've yet to see a Beaver that has any Testicles at all so I guess this only goes to prove we are 100% correct yet again!

I'd like to attend one of the Pastors beaver Hunting expeditions although I'm always told that ladies aren't allowed to go.

How many times have you lifted a beavers leg and looked???

Also,that picture isnt a beaver....beavers dont(and to my knowladge) have never looked like wolfs...also a beaver is not 4 feet tall and 3 feet long....The picture of the guy shooting the "beaver" with a bow,thats a huge weasle dude.

Maybe a generous helping of castor oil would purge your body of those inner demons that constantly whisper FILTH into your ears!

I can think of one other creature that hasn't changed since she first came to this forum, but who keeps on wallowing in her own atheistic rubbish.

Good point Brother Prune. These atheist witches’ posts are just like a broken record “science says this,…”, “Darwin says that,…”, “the facts are this,..” Just once I would like of this atheist wickers to stop hiding behind reason and address the issues raised by The Bible directly.

Hardly.
Why would I need inner demons whispering filth when I have people typing words that are filthy for my eyes to see?

I notice how you cannot deny that what I have said makes actual sense rather than biblical blither-blather.

When I do that, and come up with questions and points you can't answer, you go into a tirade and tell me something along the lines of I'm possessed by demons or something.

Oh so we are supposed to stand by and let demons have their way with you. Do you really think I am that cold hearted Rachael?

So according to you belief in evolution means one is possessed? Lol!
You just proved my point, dearie.

How silly!
There is ample fossil evidence to show life as it grew and evolved over millions of years. Present form, LOL!
Evolution is constant, why humans today are different than they were even as little as 200 years ago. Taller. Longer life-span.

Rachael! You need to stop dealing with silly unproven theories like evolution, and start from the FACTS.
FACT: You are a witch.
FACT: We don't like witches.
FACT: Neither does God.

Now, those are the facts, how do you propose to deal with them? I may not be a spaniel-fondler like Chucky D, but I've got a pretty good theory: you should convert to Christianity, and fast!

Somehow, for some strange reason, I'm not convinced that humans didn't evolve from ape-like creatures. I wonder why.

I've got a better idea.

There is evidence for horizontal evolution, how one species adapts to it's environment. There is no evidence for linear evolution, one species changing into another.

Everytime that (so called) scientists come up with the "missing link" between man and monkey, it winds up being some kind of hoax.

Think back to "Nebraska Man" where scientist though they found the missing link, they named it, drew what it should look like, even figured out how it lived; all based on their finding of a tooth. Turns out, the tooth was a boar tooth.

Friend, for you to believe in evolution, heck, you have more belief than I do in my God.

Humans evolved from an ape-like creature.So, while we have a common ancestor, apes didn't change into humans, humans evolved from an ape-like creature. Things don't just magically change snap-your-fingers quick, they take time. Evolution is not a microwave, sparky.

And then there's the DNA evidence, which says that our DNA is 90-something% the same as that of apes. We even share some of the same DNA as plants. All of which suggests that life, on this planet is all interconnected.
