    Looking at the poll numbers, we have a lot of believers. I wonder if that carries over to the demand for tin foil around here --[troll]

    I don't know. I would think a big foot would be coughing up hairballs and just imagine the SIZE of those balls ...definitely not for me. I'll pass on joining thanks.

    I never found them. I spent quite a few nights, in my early teens, in the woods looking for the bastard. I don't know what I would have done if I actually found one- I only had a CO2 powered BB gun, a USAF issue survival knife, and a slingshot. [lolol]

    Just about anything is possible. Remember the extinct fish that was caught off the South African coast a few years ago.

    I believe Cain is the creature known as bigfoot/yeti/sasquatch, etc. Cursed thousands of years ago to be a vagabond and fugitive in the earth, who should never die, cursed with a mark (dark and hairy), miserable and evil....he has trodden earth where no man has gone and he's done it many times.

    Here is an excerpt from the mid 1800's from a Mormon writing called "Miracle of Forgiveness:"

    "A notable oddity from pp. 127-128:
    On the sad character Cain, an interesting story comes to us from Lycurgus A. Wilson's book on the life of David W. Patten. From the book I quote an extract from a letter by Abraham O. Smoot giving his recollection of David Patten's account of meeting "a very remarkable person who had represented himself as being Cain."

    As I was riding along the road on my mule I suddenly noticed a very strange personage walking beside me. His head was about even with my shoulders as I sat in my saddle. He wore no clothing, but was covered with hair. His skin was very dark. I asked him where he dwelt and he replied that he had no home, that he was a wanderer in the earth and traveled to and fro. He said he was a very miserable creature, that he had earnestly sought death during his sojourn upon the earth, but that he could not die, and his mission was to destroy the souls of men. About the time he expressed himself thus, I rebuked him in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by virtue of the Holy Priesthood, and commanded him to go hence, and he immediately departed out of my sight..."


    In the scriptures, there's very few who are allowed "to tarry in the earth" until the end..John the beloved, the three nephites, and cain... One day we'll all know if this is true or not.


    The wiki on Cain:
    The Bible refers to the curse of Cain in the fourth chapter of the Book of Genesis. This passage describes two brothers, Cain and Abel. Cain, the older, "was a tiller of the ground", while Abel "was a keeper of sheep" (Gen. 4:2).[1] Eventually, each of the brothers performed a sacrifice to God; Cain sacrificed some of his crops to God, while Abel sacrificed "of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof" (Gen. 4:3–4). When God accepted Abel's offering, but not Cain's, Cain's "countenance fell" (Gen. 4:5), and he "rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him" (Gen. 4:8).
    When God confronted Cain about Abel's death, God cursed him, saying:
    "What have you done? Listen! Your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground. Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. When you work the ground, it will no longer yield its crops for you. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth." (Gen. 4:10–12)[2]
    As an act of irony, the curse by God focused strictly on neutralizing the benefits of Cain's primary skill, cultivating crops. When Cain complained that the curse was too strong, and that anyone who found him would kill him, God responded, "Not so; if anyone kills Cain, he will suffer vengeance seven times over",[3] and God "set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him" (Gen. 4:15).


    Perhaps he has been killed..which if done by someone, or a team of hunters, they'd suffer as Cain, perhaps having the same mark..or appearance explaining the multiple sightings? Who knows. Fun story though.

    That's a pretty cool story, even if they forgot about The Flood.

    I grew up in Oregon and we used to dream about seeing or even finding a footprint of Bigfoot. My friends and I would hike for miles looking for any evidence; little did we know that rye grass fields weren't the best place to look.

    On a side note, there was a group of 7+-ft-tall peoples found in Nevada:
    <Red Headed Viking Giant Mummies>
    If I remember correctly, Bigfoot is really tall and has red hair - maybe they're related.

    Yeah, I've often wondered about the flood wherein 8 souls survived. But then, Cain has no real soul to speak of..and he may have actually died...well, mostly. CAIN = first official zombie!! lol

    I have no doubts that they exist but only in the realm of Santa Claus. It exists as a legend and a spark of imagination. We need a certain percentage of moon-bats to keep the rest of us from taking everything too serious.

    Well of course they exist.

    I haven't seen one. I've been seen by others, who thought I might be Bigfoot...

    Just cause I haven't seen one doesn't mean they don't exist though! I've never seen France, but I think it exists.

    Just thirty miles away, in Jefferson, Texas, they have a Bigfoot Symposium each year. If they'd only advertise a little ahead of time, I'd mosey over there and check it out!

    Are these Sasquatch threads EVERYWHERE?? LOL

    I used to date a guy. My kids called him Sasquatch. He had the look. I thought it was hysterical ... funny, he wasn't too amused.

    Yeah, no, we didn't last that long. ;)
