The tidal forces created by the rings would be catastrophic. Since our moon affects the tides, and the speed at witch our earth rotates, I am sure it would interfere with the circadian rhythm. The earth would not be as it is today. I am sure it would have affected the evolution of many species, including our own.
I would love to see it though.
