What came first. Our skeleton or the flesh over it?
Since we allegedly are a product of evolution, how did it happen?
Also, how did brainless evolution create lungs so that we could
breathe oxygen and live, even though most of the air is Nitrogen?

Flesh. The first animals were soft-bodied, which is why
their fossils are extremely rare.
Later they evolved to take advantage of the abundance of
calcium to form shells, bones & teeth.

You're asking for an explanation of evolution on Usenet?
Even knowing you won't read it?

Did you know there was no O2 in the atmosphere until green
plants put it there? And that the oxygen caused a mass
extinction?
BTW, what do you think nitrogen has to do with it?--- Synchronet 3.22a-Linux NewsLink 1.2

Think about what you are saying. You are saying that because mindless, brainless, 0 IQ,
evolution,
that because it contained too much calcium, that it
magically formed shells,
bones and teeth.
It takes a complex DNA code, in order to make teeth, shells, bones.
And mindless, brainless, 0 IQ

Concerning the book "Evolution for Dummies", I guess you would have
to be one if you pay $87.93 for it.

The question -- you know, one of those sentences with a "?" at the end
of it, as quoted above.
This:
What came first. Our skeleton or the flesh over it?

James' question was about which of those things came first in
the context of the evolutionary development timeline. He
qualified that with an additional sentence,
"Since we allegedly are a product of evolution, how did
it happen?"
to make that clearer, altho you snipped it a bit upthread.
The link you provided (which you also snipped) went to a page--
describing the development timeline of various body features
in a human embryo. That's probably why the URL started with
"embryology". Nothing to do with the evolution of soft and
hard animal body parts. Hence my confusion over your reply.
Thank you for your research. Do you have any more answers to

The thread appears to have originated in another forum, which I seem
to have missed.
I was responding to the question that I saw: What came first. Our
skeleton or the flesh over it?
I took "our flesh" to refer to our flesh, and not that of remote
ancestors, and it is therefore primarily a question of embryology,
which is, however, said by some to recapitulate evolution.
