What is so interesting about these stories is how what was just absolute historical fact yesterday all of the sudden changes. If we argued about the veracity of the original claim we would be a heretic of science. Find a skull somewhere where it shouldn't be and the science community re-writes the narrative to attempt to fit it in to their pre-existent belief system. :howdy: Funny how that works.



It has long been agreed that Africa was the sole cradle of human evolution. Then these bones were found in Georgia...

The conventional view of human evolution and how early man colonised the world has been thrown into doubt by a series of stunning palaeontological discoveries suggesting that Africa was not the sole cradle of humankind. Scientists have found a handful of ancient human skulls at an archaeological site two hours from the Georgian capital, Tbilisi, that suggest a Eurasian chapter in the long evolutionary story of man.

The skulls, jawbones and fragments of limb bones suggest that our ancient human ancestors migrated out of Africa far earlier (how in the world can they draw that conclusion) than previously thought and spent a long evolutionary interlude in Eurasia – before moving back into Africa to complete the story of man.

An interesting read for all of your "objective" readers is the following book

Buried Alive: The Startling Truth about Neanderthal Man (http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/cuozzo_cg.html)


I have met the author and actually was in a Sunday school class that he led for us in NJ. Very Interesting stuff.

What does this have to do with Religion?

Are you serious?

Are you serious?

Yes. Per the topic description, this forum is to discuss religion.

This particular post is a scientific discussion posted in the Religious forum. Isnt that why you moved my Evolution posts?

Or are you selective in your editing of what gets posted in here?

Perhaps this was posted because Dr. Cuozzo in addition to being an orthodontist is also a creationist.

maybe so, but the original post is related to religion the same way my evolution posts were

Science is an ever changing process based on what is learned. I'm not sure what the argument is here. It sounds like there is a bash on science being attempted, even though these bones probably provide more evidence that evolution occurred. Back when the world was 1 large land mass, it's not completely out of the question that man migrated to different land masses. Considering one part of Africa basically bordered Georgia back when it was "Pangaea", that sounds like a possibility. At the very least, it makes more sense than discovering the bones in Oregon.

Except for the "pre-existing belief system" part, that's how science works. You find new facts and theories change.

So they should stick with Africa even though there is new evidence?

Suggest a chapter, is all they are saying. If they found bones dated earlier than any others, what other conclusion could be drawn? Not sure why they suggest they moved back to Africa. Couldn't they just not have been successful in their new territory and died off?
