Human Origins

It is beginning to look like we all have to rethink our roots. What I mean by that is humans did not come from the clear cut evolutionary branches many scientists think we did. We thought there was a clear cut line that defined us, much as some of us think time is just a straight line, which doesn’t seem to be the case. If we were to reconstruct our very ancient history it is beginning to look like there were many ancient races and they interbred and somehow they all died out except us modern humans, who were the product of this interbreeding. I am not pulling this theory out of thin air, but I am expanding on what has been recently found. We knew Neanderthals existed, but up to recently we didn’t believe we bred with them. We have found out we did. The problem is we have also found out there was another race at the time known as the Denisovan. Not much was found which proved this race existed except for a tooth and that was found in a cave in Siberia along with a finger bone. This was enough however to show there was also unidentified DNA. This means there was at least one more race involved and these races had bred with Neanderthals and we had bred with them as I said. For all we know, if the human race is older than we think we might have also bred directly with other races.

There may have been a time when this planet had several or more races of the species in the genus Homo. We might even find out someday we had bred with completely different species in the past who were also intelligent, or not so intelligent. When we look at this evidence we have to at least think there is the possibility different races were on this planet at the same time. Some might argue if they were we should have found evidence of them, but look at the only evidence we found for the Denisovans and that wasn’t found until recently. It may be their remains didn’t hold up very well over the years. We are also talking about primitive beings who wouldn’t have left much in the way of buildings or such. Could we be the survivors of many different races which didn’t make it?Β  There are many questions this raises. Could the reason they didn’t make it be natural or could there have been some sort of intervention? If the answer is intervention than who did what? Could an outside race, one not from this planet have taken a hand in this? Let’s not eliminate the slight chance there is another race on earth which could be living under it which did this, but yes it could also all be just a natural occurring event and the cleverest race survived.

The Genus Homo is said to be at least 2.8 million years old and it might be a lot older. It is suspected that the most recent ancestors to the Genus Homo are Australopithecus garhi, Australopithecus sediba, Australopithecus africanus and Australopithecus afraensis, but with the new discoveries being made of the Denisovan people and the unknown DNA found, this could be the wrong assumption. Our ideas about the linkage of humans to the ancient past and their evolution have always be incomplete and quite frankly just guesses. There is a very large part of the puzzle missing, at least missing to us. If we go back far enough we have been told we either came from primates or shared an ancestor with them. Who knows what we will find someday if we can trace ourselves back far enough. It could turn out we are the descendants of people who are not even from earth. Wouldn’t that really screw up those Darwinists?

If you ask the question of why all primates didn’t evolve into humans you sometimes get some strange theories. Some scientists are now suggesting alcohol consumption had something to do with this. Biologists at the Foundation for Applied Molecular Evolution suggested this. They claim when they traced primates back 50 million years ago they found only a small portion of alcohol could be metabolized, but when they were able to advance this to 10 million years back they found what they call common ancestors to humans which were chimps and gorillas which could absorb alcohol 40 times more efficiently. They said, “Around this same time, the Earth cooled off, food sources changed, and this primate ancestor started to explore life on the ground.” Supposedly the change did not effect all chimps or gorillas, only those which were destined to become human links. First of all how could these people know they got things right when simulating conditions in primates that far back and secondly why would this new found ability have anything to do with evolution? The third thing I would like to know is why only some animals of a species were affected. I for one don’t see it, but maybe someone out there who reads this will agree with them.

There is still the theory that somewhere back in our lost history there was a race of humans or at least beings who were even more advanced than we are today. There are plenty of conspiracy people who think this is being hidden from us for some reason. The reason some give is this race had managed to go into space and put colonies in our solar system and perhaps beyond and a war took place and an even more powerful race nuked them out of existence and they claim that is why there are some ancient cities on earth which are still radioactive and bear the marks from a nuclear attack. It could be we were warned never to go into space again, or maybe not to go beyond the moon with manned exploration. This is just a guess of course and they could be totally incorrect, but they also claim ruins exist on the moon and Mars and this is why we are not being told about them.

Knowing our true origins may be one of the most important things we ever find out. It seem like we are being kept in the dark on so many levels we have no way of ever knowing what is really going on in the world. The question is how will knowing this information change our lives? If we find out we are descendants of an ancient race we might find out we are originally from Mars or another planet and not even native to the Earth. We might even find out we are the result of interbreeding between tens or even hundreds of different species. Could it even turn out we have gotten DNA wrong in some aspects and even though our DNA indicates some connections to other species it is not from interbreeding, but for some other reason? As science advances we often find out some theories were built on mistakes.

I would really like to know our true history and I am betting many of you would also like to know.
