i can't help the fact that people stopped posting.. and even minus the second page.. this post was a successful 50 post thread on whether or not big foot exists (which it does not)
are you an atheist?

Honest.... I have a co-worker who I don't think is crazy that seriously claims he has seen one multiple times. He is an ex-marine who is into all that war, guns, camo stuff. He lives in a rural part of Ohio and says that it makes its way to this area where he lives seasonaly. He claims he had a night video but it was too hard to make out. He wanted me and another co-worker to sit out all night with him to prove it to us... :scared: We didn't go. But I guess there are some websites that show were documented areas from multiple witnesses that claim they exist or something does in this area in NE - SE Ohio??? We tease him sometimes but he really thinks it is real without a doubt.

I am at work now and I showed him that picture. He said the that is similar to what he saw, although it was dark the couple of times he saw it. He says the eyes are definetly far apart. He wanted to see the ears but couldnt see in that pic.

When someone asks "Prove it exists"....I think "Prove it doesn't"
You can substitute almost anything for "it"
Kinda like the big

Whatever IT is, you can get IT on E#Bay

i can see how you are trying to link Christianity to bigfoot, but honestly i find it a bad analogy.. now there might be a species we have not discovered.. such as some sort of monkey.. but there is surely not "bigfoot", as in a single beast.. notice the sightings are all around the world.. i doubt a monkey man could travel the world without being discovered..
and have you seen "Jeff Corwin's The Yeddy".. he goes around india, and he goes to some bigfoot museum.. and supposedly finds bigfoot's scalp.. so if there is a "bigfoot".. how do they have his scalp??

I have been reading this thread and have resisted jumping in so far, but I finally have to add some things.
I think that Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti/Abominable Snowman probably does exist.
Let's do some analytical thinking, shall we?
1. Why do many different cultures from different areas of the globe have
legends that are so very similar but with different characteristics? Could it
be that some unknown animal is present in these different places that may
have been the same at one time, but because of environmental differences
in different parts of the globe, developed different external characteristics?
What I am trying to say is that maybe this animal was present abundantly
before the continents broke up (like man) and after the continental break,
the creature developed differences based on his environment (like man).
2. If this creature is fake, why have many prominent and respected
individuals reported seeing him? For those who have cast doubt above,
have you actually read Teddy Roosevelts account about the time he
encountered Bigfoot? Maybe you should read it before denying it out of
hand.
3. Regarding the Patterson video, there has been some doubt shed as to
its authenticity. However, if you ever have opportunity to see the cleaned
up version (using stabilization technology) without the graininess, several
things will be apparent. The gait is almost impossible to fake for the
length of time that the creature was observed. The breasts on the creature
actually swung appropriately with the creatures stride. As stated above,
the musculature moved appropriately with the movement. Yes, I have my
doubts about whether the video was real, but I leave some room for
thought.
4. Lastly, why can't there be some creature around that man has not
conquered/studied? There are parts of the deep forest that have not
been fully studied and/or are not visited often. Why couldn't a shy,
reclusive creature be there and avoid infrequent visitors? I don't doubt that
a creature that appears to be mammalian and is possibly reasonably
intelligent could avoid humans relatively easy in its own environment.
Let's not forget that the coelocanth has been around for millenia and just
within the last few years has been proven to exist. Recently, animals have
been discovered in the forests of Vietnam that were felt to be mythical.
Sorry about the long post, but I wanted to bring the subject back to hand without the jibes and flaming. I would like to know what you all think about my points above.

I do think Yeti and Bigfoot are the same, in the sense that Asians and Americans are the same. That's just culture and geography.

I don't think there is just 1 bigfoot. There would have to be some colonization. If there were just one, it would have died long ago.
And there are sightings in areas that are very far apart from each other. I would believe such a reclusive creature won't be hitting the road for Ohio if his home is Northern Cal.
Rackyrane,
I agree. I hadn't heard about Teddy Roosevelt's sighting. I'll have to go look!

What a great post. This is the direction I was hoping this thread to go instead of a game of semantics which aquarium threads often become.

Nicely Done!!
