Of course, not everyone agrees with him.

His name was Adam, and Spencer is a little too far south, and a little too far back in time...other than that, I would agree with him.

I saw the documentary last week. Interesting, but had no competing views to Wells (not that I'm one of those people who gets offended by that, if every program was equal time for everyone, everything would grind to a halt.)

The really remarkable thing is how the San Bushmen in Africa really DO look like those composite photos of 10,000 people around the world morphed together on a computer.

One thing he didn't address at all in the documentary is archaelogical evidence for Pre-Clovis settlement in the Americas.

I suspect there's no Y-chromosone evidence among current Native Americans for any Pre-Clovis settlement.

Any insights how the reproduction process occurred with only one individual? I guess evolution just knew how to design a perfectly matching system for the female. Not only perfectly matching and cooperative reproductive systems, but also perfectly matching internal systems that make up the miracle of the human body. Is it not obviously, undeniably impossible for another human to be produced without a male and female? God DID create them, male and female, and they DID increase in number from that point on.

Journey of Man premieres on the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) television station in the United States on Tuesday, January 21, 2003, at 9:00 p.m. Check the PBS Web site for your local schedule.

This thread might have been useful last week. As it is, it just looks like you are trying to get a rise out of creationists.

Good God that is a long article. Funny PBS is running it against the SOTU.

Does his theory address the origins of the Olemic culture in South America?

Work of microbiologists some 25 years ago using mitochonrial DNA concluded that all humans come from the same woman, dating back some 50,000. This is a conclusion of microbiology and genetics, not from anthropology, similar cultures, or the ethnic profile of human migration. Needless to say, the "bone" guys (palentologists) have been in heated debate with the microbiologists for the past 25 years on this. It's interesting to see how scientists behave when the theories they earned their degrees on, and have built their careers on, become threatened.
