Most likely they came from Africa, like all the other ancestors. That is why when I am really pushed by those government forms, I say my race/ethnicity is Afro-Asian. I am descended from Lucy and the Peking man.-

Who were the first humans?
Scientists agree that our early ancestors, Homo erectus, first appeared in Africa 1–2 million years ago. They spread throughout the world and evolved into ancient humans. Most believe that modern humans evolved in Africa, and gradually replaced all the other ancient humans (the 'Out-of-Africa' theory). Some scientists believe that ancient humans may have evolved into modern humans all over the world at around the same time (the 'multiregional' theory). Either way, by about 30,000 years ago, we – Homo sapiens – were the only humans left on the planet

I looked up the "multiregional theory" and it appears to be related to homeopathy; they keep watering it down hoping that dilution will some day make it effective.

I tend a favor the out of Africa theory, but I won’t say that the multiregional is theory wrong. In science a theory is theory until it is proven false. The problem is how does one prove either theory right or wrong; if one could prove it right it would be a fact and not a theory. “ Today’s wisdom is tomorrow’s foolishness”.

Does anyone know what a hypothesis is ? IMO ."lucy's " bone fragments ,scarcely prove "evolution " .

[MajGenl.Meade]

"Evolution" is proved. The question at hand is whether Lucy is just another monkey or not. Of course, paleo people are bound to claim any kind of monkey bone as being "hominid" since to call it anything else isn't at all helpful to their agenda

...knowing your views on polygamy, I would guess that you have a bonobo, or two, in the woodpile somewhere....

....so I d guess...., the trees?

It is not that I am a strong supporter of polygamy or monogamy it is that I am opposed to divorce; it is harmful to too many children and possibly causes many of the social problems of this country . People get married when the heat is high, but start looking for a replacement lover the when passion starts to cool and ends up with three or wives. It would be better for the kids if a man had three or four wives at the same time and kept the family together.

That's why you're not a marriage counselor.

A scientist with an agenda is no scientist since the only agenda that a real science should have is the truth. Modern science has fallen on hard times in this era of ideological and bought and paid for scientist. The high point in science was in the beginning when a scientist made no salary except for the few that headed scientific societies . They made mistake too but they tried hard to keep their bias out of their work. They reported what they saw. They would spend their own money doing research just for the honor of reporting a new discover. Now the truth is what the majority says it is; that is not the way science is done. In science, the one can be right and the ninety nine can be wrong.

What in that sack of pig shit you call a brain creates the delusion that you have the first clue about either how science is actually conducted or should be conducted?

Seriously, just get out of my country, and see how well you do in "Mother Russia." I'm certain you wouldn't last a week.

What makes you so sure I couldn’t make it in Russia? The key would be to stay out of politics and keep my opinions to myself. I could do that if I wanted to bad enough. The educational definition of learning is “a change in behavior “ and I have done many times and have the stack of certificates to prove it.

However, I am not sure I could get an exit visa; I once held a Top Secret SCI security clearance.

Well you certainly hav the "belive any nonsense you're told" part down.

They hand those out to the guys who scrub the toilets, do they?

What are you talking about; what does that have to do with changing one’s behavior in order to fix a new environment?

[Scooter]

Did you hear and feel that whooosh?

That was Crackpot's point flying right over your head.
