Does evolution include the possibility of alien-human design/interbreeding.
Everything's possible.

To say that you believe in evolution, and then to claim that people have not changed at all is in and of itself a contradiction

I don't think he actually did claim that people have never changed at all. Instead he was claiming that human nature had not changed significantly through the period recorded in history.

Regardless, human nature HAS changed. OF course people still give in to primal urges here and there, but the majority of people do not go around killing one another to settle conflicts, the majority of people feel ashamed of their nakedness and put clothes on themselves, a lot of people are offended by people that are open about sex. All of these qualities were not always part of human nature so yes, it has changed with time

You yourself were pushing some bullshit semantic argument that had little to do with what he had really argued, in order to have an "aha you're wrong" moment. Nothing he said even remotely touched on young earth creationism.

I know it is hard to tell with text but I thought it was pretty obvious I was exaggerating my point, and my whole point from the beginning relates to what the thread was originally about. People have changed greatly due to innovations and inventions, and the changing world around us. People are continuing to change with the advancement of technology.

And a few more examples of how human nature has changed:Money,Toilets

Paper money has added something to human nature that was no there before, and somewhere in human history people started becoming uncomfortable with shitting in front of people, and some people cant even talk about it without getting embarrassed. You think early humans worried about that?

And technology is still relatively new so we have not yet had the opportunity to fully see how it will change us

It sounds like you honestly just prefer socializing over the Internet, and when you didn't have it you made the best of a bad situation. Good for you! :thaaannks:

I thought it was pretty obvious from what sVs had said that he had placed some major qualifiers on his "human nature hasn't changed" claim, namely that major changes hadn't taken place over a limited time window. Obviously that point is arguable both ways, but the period he was talking about was pretty short in evolutionary terms. Your stance "You said that humans had never changed ever, so you must be either an evolution denier or a hypocrite" was basically a straw man argument, you were arguing against a point he hadn't really made and attributing it to him. When I pointed this out, your rebuttal was "Semantics," kind of a cop-out since your own argument relied heavily on semantics.

All depends on how you define "human nature" I suppose. Embarrassment and greed have been around for quite a while though, even if the things we get embarrassed or greedy about have changed. Human behavior has certainly changed a great deal, but that doesn't necessarily mean that our core motivations are totally different.
