"We have Africa in our blood and Africa has our bones”

[R_C]

So Richard Dawkins was on Bill Mahr the other day promoting his new book ‘The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution' in which he asserts, among other things, that we are all Africans and gave him this shirt:


This theory has been around for a long time of course but I was just thinking how ironic that the tea party would repeatedly use references, not just to Obama’s being Black, but his <span style="font-style: italic">Africaness</span>, to instill fear into Americans at time when science has all but proven that Africa is where the human species originated.

Re: &quot;We have Africa in our blood and Africa has our bones”

dawkins is on a mission to prove there is no creator &amp; that the theory of evolution is indisputable fact;

i don't know how i feel about this though...it could have hidden implications

some will use this to imply that the european is a more 'evolved' human than the african

Darwin himself said as much.

Now I haven't read everything that Dawkins has written but I have heard some of his lectures and read some of his books and haven''t come across a similar thought. Going to order this one and will reserve judgment until I read it but your point is well taken.

More on the point you made jah_yout:

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Darwin</div><div class="ubbcode-body">At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace the savage races throughout the world. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes … will no doubt be exterminated. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilized state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the negro or Australian and the gorilla. <span style="font-weight: bold">From: Charles Darwin, &quot;The Descent of Man&quot;, 2nd edition</span>, New York, A L.

They would have to destroy the DNA records That proved unequivocally That the negroid strain of the human race is not just the most evolved, but that other strains are branches of That strain.
In other words the africanoid is much more evolved beyond other primates That They cannot be even described as a closer link than other strains.

The Objective of the original &quot;Human Genome Project was to create a scientific basis to support the socially promoted idea That Caucasians were a more evolved strain of the primates. And negroid Was the closer relationship.
The big secret us the DNA proved otherwise.

So it forced the rethinking of the planned social engineering of society worldwide.

There was a separate Chimpanzee Genome Project that was supported by HGP funding and generated some of that controversy from persons outside and not immediately connected with the research project.
