Of course, there's usually more "wet" than "tshirt".

It comes from Darwin.
Natural-Selection is the stage for which the Aliens and Humans battle. Which set of genes enable a species to survive more? Only the war will tell.

Monkeys are evolved from ducks.
well the idea is that while one group of early apes/monkeys/whatever went on to evolve into humans, the other went on to evolve into the monkeys we see now...
All in all, a much better theory than adam and eve popping onto the scene magically during the reign of the dinosaurs. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

that is the deffinition straight from my biology book.

actually we haven't evolved from monkeys, we're in the same family... homosomething
1. The strongest survive..that's the whole idea of evolution.
2. We aren't degraded humans because we evolved from monkeys....we are just humans.
Watch the movie Evolution (the one with the 3 eyed smiley), it explains it quite good. It will make sense than.

The strongest don't survive. The ones most adapted to the enviroment and the surroundings survive.
For example, a red bug wouldn't survive well in the jungle, but a green one will, and by the proccess of the elimination, the red one would seen be gone, while the green one would still survive.
teehee!

Created from Earth doesn't necessarily mean that a big dust cloud all of a sudden formed into a shape of a human. Primordial soup (that sludge we supposedly evolved from) could be what it is refering to as Earth. Taking everything literally while reading is bad mmkay?
Also your avatar is ironic. Yeah I saw the video it came from. "So, they are ****ed, basically." Or something like that. It was funneh! The reason it is ironic was because it was talking about how screwed up the shrews are in Darwin's standards.
PS : Also Dinosaurs had been extinct for some time when humans came around. Now don't you know your history?
No, do NOT watch that movie. It's scientifically ridiculous (intense heat will not "accelerate" evolution - it will kill the creature, multiple species cannot evolve into one mega-species, etc.) and the movie itself sucks.
Quaunaut, go take an introductory college-level biology class if you want to understand evolution. Humans did not evolve from any species that is currently living on this planet. What humans evolved from is extinct.
Anyway, on topic: it probably has two meanings. It's a new "species" out of all the HL mods and is a new "species" out of all the game types (RTS/FPS hybrid). It also indicates the battle between marines and aliens: whoever is the "fittest" will continue to survive and reproduce.
(Note: My explinations always are incomplete. If you fail to understand it, start a plot against my life rather than suicide for feelings of inferiority. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> )

Actually, an earth based biology class has no clue whatsoever about non earth based biology. I don't care how many degrees you have.
If it's not from this earth, then you have no basis WHATSOEVER to compare it to, and are thus, unable to make hard statements about it until you observe yourself.
teehee!

<b>If the bible meant to say X it would <i>say</i> X, not: This is Y but it really means Z, and when played backwards on a phonograph it makes X.</b>
That's what I meant by the strongest.
I mean, an elephant is stronger than humans. right? But they still keep em locked and control them.
The ones who are the smartest, that fit the most to their enviroment, are the ones who'll survive.
In NS, the survival is based on power..
=P
thats like saying 'i dont believe in gravity'
I'm sure we'd ask why you didn't believe in evoloution but i'm personally afraid you'll mention eyes, so don't.
Also, technically speaking all mammalian species evolved from a few small rodents that appeared a couple of hundred million years ago. It was only when the dinosaur mass extinction came along (since they were cold blooded they were unable to adapt with a climate that lacked sunlight) that these small rodents were able to become dominant, living in different situations in different niche environments gradually evolving and adapting to fit them up until the present day.
Of course lately we've screwed up our own evoloution (read: stopped completely) thanks to our removing the selection pressures which drive evolution - natural-selection.
