One of the largest landmasses on Planet Earth is currently unexplorable - Antarcia.

There is no foundation for life evolving from Africa. There is every reason to believe life evolved on Antarica and Antarica is the source of dispersal.

Because science cannot investigate does not support their biased hypothesis.

I am right. They are wrong. Prove me otherwise.

Antarctica split from Australia about 96 million years ago, in the early Cretaceous Era. Antarctica was covered in ice by 25 million years ago, about the start of the Miocene Era. The first hominids don't show up until about 4 million years ago, in the middle Pliocene Era.

I find it somewhat implausible that Australopithecines evolved from seals on the edge of an ice shelf and swam 3,500 miles to Africa hunting penguins, or whatever..

Every reason...can you give us just one?
And how about a few arguments against 'out of Africa'?
