Sort of like Erik van Dannigan's "Chariots of the Gods" or Stargate?

Who created the previously existing humanoids?

I used to have some belief that there was someone watching us, but lately, I feel all alone. There is no God.

Then why didnt we just evolve like THEY did?

This is like the answer a person who believes in God gives:
"Who created God? Well, he's always existed/its beyond our comprehension"

I'm very anti-religious. All these crazy beliefs that people have are totally illogical, I won't go into any kind of explanation as that'll take hours.

Anyone trying to push their beliefs onto me will be met with utter contempt and disdain. Everyone should be free to make up their own mind, but sadly that'll never happen. :roll:

But as far as I'm concerned, I don't need to be defined by a set of rules, I make my own rules that are not static, they are flexible and can change to fit any situation, they are superior to any set of rules you could possibly find in any holy book because they can change as needed and they are totally understood by their user, rather than all the crazy christians and muslims who interpret what their holy book says in a million different ways and you end up with loads of people in the same religion who have totally different views on everything, it's ridiculous. :roll:

If I was to discover that a higher power did in fact exist, I would not change the way I live for them, why the hell should I? This is my life and I'll live it how I wish and so far I've gotten along fine without any 'guidance' from above. I don't need to please those who have power, I live life for me and it's as simple as that.

I'm pagan, in that i believe in divinity in the form of the goddess and that divine power lies in the earth itself. However, i also believe that every religion is but a facet into a greater universal force that is viewed and honoured in the way the individual chooses to. In a sense, we all worship the same thing, but in different ways.

In a way, i kinda see non-divine based religions (Buddism, atheism, Satanism (due to the focus on self instead of anything else from above)) as placing this belief in yourself and others around you. Really, we all believe in existance and that's the one thing we have in common.

I'm pretty much anti-institution, because i believe that you should believe what you know is true in your heart, not what some priest or whatever tells you to believe. Religion is a personal thing and it's inclusion, or absense is up to the individual.

That's the basis of evolution buddy. We gradually came about as a gradual development, DNA changing and mutating gradually, and the more able configurations surviving over the less able.

To put it mildly, neither the chicken NOR the egg came first. The species that preceeded the chicken did.

But that's not to say a higher power had nothing to do with it. I'm pretty certain it gave evolution a few helpful nudges.

Why is it alright for you to adjust your own rules to changing situations and not for Muslims and Christians to interpret their Scriptures to confront changing circumstances? It would be consistent with your eminently commendable moral stance to attack (allegedly) static and rigid laws, but it does not appear to be consistent to attack interpretation if that is precisesly how you live your own life. How do the rules that you have differ from the fundamentals of those of the various faith traditions? Laws commanded in various traditions are not invariably treated as inflexible rules making no allowance for moral dilemmas - there is such a thing as "the spirit of the law" and the "letterof the law." Sorry if the earlier part of this post came across as being more than a little bit rude. I respect you.
