lol..

I'm assuming this shrinkage over time has been reserched and "confirmed" by Scholars.
I cant find any references.

It's looking like Adam as a ninety footer is logically and scientificaly unstainable.

What is science but human's own theories? theories that become bit more proven become facts while other's are nothing but "guesses". Do you know that the theory of evoultion has not been proven and yet it is thought as a "fact" in the education system?

Anyways, don't rely on the science a bit too much, they have been wrong and had to go back and fix their "facts" before. Science is only as good as the knowledge humans have today.

Islam on other hand has stood test of time for 1400yrs. Even though it is a religion, it is still more credible and years ahead of science.

Anyways, it may seem unstainable currently and that maybe true but we are talking about ages ago. "logically speaking" dinosaurs and other giant animals would be also unstainable due to their large size. But then again it's unstaniability is a human's guess based on the little science advancement he has made. Give it another 50yrs and scientist will star saying something.

As for shrinkage being research. I did come across an article few years back. Try googling bottleneck effect, humans, science and jews.

You mean this
I think this is yet another islamic science hoax.

^ Sorry? A what?

A hoax - something intended to deceive; deliberate trickery intended to gain an advantage

yea that one. i think islam or muslims had nothing to do with that get together. So, how is it an "islamic science" hoax? any evidence on that? 2ndly, what's the source of that article?

Well, it can only be traced to islamic sites. Besides there's no information about Hofesh V'Mada and Shlomi Lesser to be found on the net, apart from the article.
the article does not elaborate on the calculation Dr Lesser supposedly made, I can't think of any way how anyone could calculate the height of a man to such precision without knowing where, when, how etc he lived. He didn't use scintific data, as there's no evidence of there being a single first man, nor the place and time he lived. And he can't have used jewish data about Adam living 6000 years ago. If he did use it, his findings are false, as it is a well known fact that there were much smaller humans around more than 6000 ago.

Like i said, do you have the sources? I'm not sure if i found it on islamic or secular site few years back. In either case, you'll have to excuse me if i believe my Quran than some human scientist with miserly studying of 10yrs to tell me that we came from monkeys. He can be a monkey's uncle all he wants.

I'm not saying you can't believe what you believe, I'm just saying I'm not buying it.

btw: what sources exactly do you expect me to find? It's you who claims the article and the scientists are genuine and you're supposed to prove it. All I can say is that today the article can be found on islamic sites and sites refuting islamic sites.

I just said that i found such an article on the topic few years back. Anyways, what i believe is what i believe and same goes for you. My belief has stood test of time for 1400yrs and so it helps me to know the facts where as you will have just wait till the scientists get smart enough to shed some light on this (if they ever stop being monkey's uncle )

Well, there is not a major religion in the world whose adhearents will admit that their books are flawed in any way. I for one don't think any religious text is flawless including the Quran.
This topic is about Adam being 90 feet tall and I seriously doubt that a humanlike being could be 90 feet tall and survive, for the reasons I sated previously.
So, this is one of the reasons I remain an agnostic.

If dinosaurs were huge back in the days, then i wouldn't be surprised if humans survived in a similar enironment.


Anyway guys, remember that absence of proof is not proof of absence

Why not? And survive for how long? Just imagine it a walking giant, able to take cover in giant trees, could eat giant crops, travel to places in a couple of leaps to get things needed etc. Also it must be cool being able to get to places in a fraction of time

i'm sure that the average lifetime in that era was a couple hundred years

I can't imagine humans being 7 feet tall. That is just not possible, it's unstainable i tell ya!

What! My ancestors were that huge and ruled the earth? Impossible!!
