Scientist challenges 'out of Africa' theory with new origin for modern humans

An evolutionary biologist has challenged the long-held theory that suggests the first humans emerged from African.

Dr Huan Shi, from China, proposed evolution began in East Asia where fossils predating the Africa timeline have been found.

Evidence of genetic diversity is at the heart of his 'out of East Asia' theory, based on a concept called 'maximum genetic diversity' (MGD) that states complex species are more likely to have less genetic diversity.

Oh crap. See, this whole time I've been referring to myself as "African-American" based on the African origin theory.

Now what?

[DPMD]

Lord Farrakhan will not be pleased.

I always found it curious that these great Africans with their alien gifts never used their technology to help their Black brothers and sisters who were being sold into slavery and ruled from distant Europe.

[FreedomPoster]

Don’t forget the many who were sold East into the Arabian peninsula.

They didn’t leave many descendants. Castration of slaves was a thing in the Islamic world.

No, not really. Remember, their the “indigenous” people of the Americas which I take to mean they sprang up from the rocks.

[Robert A Cook PE]

Bible doesn’t specifically say where God created Man.

[Sirius Lee]

In His laboratory, silly.

Correct—Chinese culture has always viewed themselves as the “best” of all civilizations in the world.

Western culture has failed to adopt that view about western culture.

That is a fatal error—because if you do not believe in the future and importance of your own culture you are doomed.

Thanks Adder.

Western culture has failed to adopt that view about western culture.

We DID adopt it back in the roughly 1900’s to the 1970’s. We KNEW it was western culture that made most of the advances and progress, dragging the entire world to a new and better level of living.

Until the white guilters took over.
Time to tell them to STFU.

[Tommy Revolts]

LOL.

“They’re” is probably the word you wanted. “There” is a grammatically correct construction. “Their” makes no sense at all.
