Which doesn't quite explain why the Loroi were designed so morphologically similar to humans. If humanities mental characteristics that result in Lotai have nothing to do with telepathy, then there wouldn't be much reason to design Loroi after humans. And the Loroi were spread out across to many planets (three, though probably more population centers that got wiped out) for them to have just been some tinkered beta version.
well look at eh planets the the Lorio found themselves on, earth-like with similar gravity and varying environments (rain forest, Oceania, and desert, not sure the the last one) it could be a modified case of Galactic Convergent Evolution
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_evolution. Where we have different origins, but a similar environment, which results in two Alien races ( human and loroi) having a similar body profile and biology. Granted Convergent Evolution may not be the best theory to support this idea
. The other side of the argument would be the human/loroi races being discovered by Soia and seeing the benefits in one body type and modifying the other race to take advantage of said form.

That, or as i stated before, we´re the early dumped prototypes.
or to keep the only Telepathic resistance experiment separate from each the telepathic one in order to see the effect on other susceptible races (IE sorta like having a magnetics R/D lab and computer labs on opposite side of a research base, to keep both work isolated for interfering with each other but the basis ( mag fields and magnetic materials) are used in both techs/research.)
I think it was Loroi propaganda that they were trying to put forth that they ARE the Soia, and thus have a right to rule the galaxy.
Naturally, a bunch of anatomically identical humans appearing out of nowhere and predating the Loroi, indicating that they're an artificial race derived from some backwater monkies sorta squashes that theory.[/quote]
Yes, but faith can blind people ( and Alien in this case) to the whole truth. You never know how much religion can change what really happened.
SIDE NOTE: the Loroi lego criuser thread was updated, with photos of my lego Arrow fighter. I would really appriecate some critic of my work . . . pls
