A thread for those of us that are interested in this kind of thing.

Over my lifetime the age of human ancestors has been getting pushed further and further back. I have read with fascination the discoveries made over the years. Advances in science in the past 20-30 years have shed so much new light. When I had an anthropology class in the mid-70's the discussion was what had happened to the Neanderthals? Since there was an overlap of our direct ancestors with them had we killed them off? Was it possible that we had interbred? And of course now we know the truth. We just absorbed their smaller numbers into one mongrel race that includes about 2% Neanderthal DNA in all but people of african ancestry. That 2% is really a huge number when you think about it. I have read that we share 99% of our DNA with our closest primate relative the chimpanzee!

We also share 97.5 percent of DNA with a mouse. Personally I would like to see how much we share with a rock.


And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgement!

I know a few folks that most likely have more than one would think. eek

DNA are God's building blocks, kinda like legos, the same pieces can build many different things and adding a few totally different pieces really makes for big differences. The sequence of evolution is laid out chronologically in Genesis, rather before science was even a word.

We are 2% caveman and 99% monkey and some how I can figure out how to work a smartphone. Yet if you took the caveman out of us would I then be a mouse at 97.5%.... now im starting to get confused about who or what I am.....do I swing from a tree or crawl in a hole, before long we wont even know which bathrooms to go in...

I'm liking this math, gives us 198.5% to work with instead of a paltry 100. Probably why the human race is the dominant species on the planet.

I know when I was trapping one year in a pasture I was glad I had some chimp and greyhound DNA that sure came in handy when that bull decided he didn't like me too much in his pasture.

This mixed race mongrel ran like a dog and up that lone tree like the Neanderthal I am.

Beaverpeeler. You picked a heck of a time to put up a good post. I think we should wait a few days. Right now some are celebrating this Jew on a stick thing, are giddy with excitement and will stomp all over science because.

Thought about that before I posted but then realized you had posted on that one too, but I'll stop posting on this thread for you friend.

Scuba is a good ole boy imo. He is intelligent, witty and shares his knowledge all the time. People can agree to disagree and still get along. Happy Easter, weirdest one yet.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

The problem with science is to much theory. Which is a educated guess.

That's also the good thing about science. Everything that comes out of our head is a theory. And everything comes out of our heads. Science is the practice of doing research to support or discredit those theories.

Plenty wrong with our practice of science, but not anymore than anything else we get up to.
