Race And Human Evolution

Editorial Reviews

There are two widely held scientific theories concerning the origin of the human species. One posits a single cradle, generally thought to be in Africa, in which Homo sapiens originated.
This dominant theory is assisted by its charismatic spokesmodel Eve, a fictitious personification of a DNA strain that some scientists argue indicates a unique source for the Earth's human population. The other, decidedly less popular theory is known as multiregionalism.
Multiregionalists argue that populations may have originated in Africa, but these populations migrated to distant regions where the human species developed and took on different characteristics, known to scientists as biological diversity but more conventionally referred to as different races.
This divide is obviously controversial, and it is not always the steady eye of science that influences which model is deemed correct (or at least politically correct).
After all, one model promises a scientific verification of our common humanity, the other, interpreted too loosely, could result in a scientific rationale that hardens concepts of racial difference.

It’s amazing. New discoveries knock down one theory after another but the replacement theory is always posited as rock-solid proven fact. Often in error never in doubt.

Yeah, but the Chinese are always fabricating data and evidence to show that humankind arose from China.

I don't trust them at all.

“Most experts believe that our ancestors emerged in Africa more than 150,000 years ago and then migrated around the world.”

It’s wonderful not to be an expert. There is no proof that man originated in Africa.

The Gobi desert is vast and inhospitable. Therefore, it is not researched.

Antartica is vast and inhospitable. Therefore, it is not researched.

Pseudo-scientists go where the going is easy and their theories are based on their easy going.

"Most of its features match those of modern man, though some are more like late archaic humans, including the Neanderthals. The authors conclude that, as our ancestors spread, they interbred with local, more ancient, types of human."

I can hear the excuses now it was dark it was late I had a few to many to drink and we all know they look better in the dark and close to closing time!

Thank God some things never change cause the human kind would of died out long ago!
