Archaeology fossil teeth discovery in Germany could re-write human history

Most likely, archaeological false teeth as these "discoveries" trying to predate man prior to about 6000 years sooner or later turn up bogus.

[Dutch Boy]

But, but, but, it was settled science? How could this happen?

[Openurmind]

Ha! Get ready, Here we go...

Thanks for finding this and sharing it. :)

"But these new teeth, found in the western German town of Eppelsheim near Mainz, are at least 4 million years older than the African skeletons, which has scientists so puzzled they held off publishing for a year.

Were they implants?

Found in a riverbed....washed in from somewhere? Could earth geographical features be marred (no pun intended) by earthquakes...volcanoes...asteroids...floods? Among other things

"...but I would hypothesize that we shall have to start rewriting the history of mankind after today,"

Again?

[RightGeek]

Most of the “known science” in this field is based on where they find fossils

...washed in from somewhere?

Quite possibly, but Africa, where all the really old African stuff is usually found, isn’t upstream from the Rhine.

[Openurmind]

lol, fact.

[hanamizu]

I meant to write “but Africa, where all the really old human/prehuman stuff is usually found...”

Precisely mon ami.

[rktman]

Must have been a “Sell by” date on it huh?

[rktman]

Post ‘pangea’?

[Wuli]

What it upsets has less to do with the dates directly and more to do with questioning the “out of Africa” theory. The questions it opens up to the “human evolution” theories are (a) did the “hominids” in Africa start out earlier in central Europe, or (b) arise simultaneously (or contemporaniously) in multiple areas, not Africa alone. The extreme differences in the oldest examples from Africa and the new discovery are more suggestive of (a) than (b).

Hasn’t anyone ever wondered what the tooth fairy does with all the teeth she collects.....?

And there it is... The effort to shame anyone who even dares think outside the theological box. If you don’t believe it fine, why go out of your way to make sure no one else even discusses it without trying to shame them for doing so? There have been a whole lot of factual science and physics proven since your beliefs that originate from the personal self righteous theory of one cleric in the 1600’s.

Right off the bat geology alone disproves Ussher’s theory altogether. Being stuck in the 1600’s mentality does not further or help your own faith at all. It aids in discrediting the rationality and logic of your faith based on well known science. It does you no favors with your own argument and support of your faith. The Bible only indicates and suggests a MINIMUM age not a MAXIMUM age.

“Most likely, archaeological false teeth as these “discoveries” trying to predate man prior to about 6000 years sooner or later turn up bogus.”

It is only bogus to you because you personally refuse to accept anything other. If anything at all is proven sooner or later, it is like this find, OLDER not younger... and it keeps getting older and older as those who believe what you do remain stuck in the ignorance of the 1600’s. How many times does Ussher’s personal theory need to be proved wrong before you stop shoving it down the throats of others?

Yes, I've run into lift-off problems. Can you send down a recovery vessel?

Oh, really? Bummer. I should be able to live off the environment until you return.
