Along with one or two other features, voting in polls is not working for me. So, this is an unofficial vote.

I say yes. It's like the chicken and egg question. There is a correct answer for that old question. The egg, laid by a bird that was almost, but not quite a chicken.

Same for Adam's belly button. If one wants to call the first true Homo sapien Adam (could have been eve as well), he was born to a woman (Homo antecessor?) who was almost, but not quite a Homo sapien.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

Yeah, the voting does not seem to be working. I will wait a few days, tabulate the results and post a graph.

Some of us, on the other hand, actually prefer a religion that includes some type of correlation with reality.

My other witness is Lucas Cranach the Elder :
He painted a lot of A&E, I've seen this one, so my exhibit B is :

The pictures are pornography, because
Pro primo - there are breasts visible, as male as female
Pro secundo - none of them can be found in the Louvre - only in the Prado and in Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna
- Whenever a poet or preacher, chief or wizard spouts gibberish, the human race spends centuries deciphering the message. - Umberto Eco
- To assert that the earth revolves around the sun is as erroneous as to claim that Jesus was not born of a virgin. - Cardinal Bellarmine at the trial of Galilei
