"Meb" is as much an American name as is "Barak", "James", "Abraham,
"George, "John", or "Michelle". Fact is that there is no such thing as an
"American" name because there is no such thing as an American language.

I know a girl named Precious, I'm pretty sure that one originated in
America.  |

I'll bet there are some American Indians that might not agree.

Did you know there are 94 languages spoken in homes of students in the
Anchorage school district? Student population is about half (49.9%)
caucasian and half "minority."
http://www.asdk12.org/aboutasd/languages.asp

I think 5 of those (maybe more) are native languages, but even they
probably came over one of the land bridge openings or by boat from
eastern Asia.

I doubt that they call themselves "American Indians".
They call themselves "Indians" in their casino advertising and
political movements in California. Of course we have Indian
Americans, too, here in Little India in southern California.

No; their proponents are at odds.

That would explain your situation you have very little understanding of
what creation is, and what evolution is. Evolution assumes that all
evolved from simple to complex life. Nothing wrong with this at all, but
something had to start it all in the first place. In other words,
something had to make the " big bang go bang."
Think of the 5 ways of Thomas Aquinas and basically it begins with a
first cause, something has to be the first cause of all. That my friend
is creation but after that it us subject to a discussion that is long
away from what I can do justice to in this newsgroup.
Put in another way, " prove to me that God does not exist?"

Why bother? There's no evidence to prove that God exists. It is strictly
a matter of faith.
