Age of Humanity

[CrimSynn]

So hello all,

I have been looking at so many different things in history. From when we started walking upright to when we moved on to building. So far it seems we have split from chimp roughly 6 million years ago and spent a little over 2 million more years developing. Then at a little less then 4 million years ago we started to settle. Which means we have been building(even if only basics) for over 3 1/2 miliion years. That is a very long time. And since then we have grown and advanced the finial question is are we at our most tech based hight or have we been well beyond this stage? As our science developes we see many extiction level events have happened on our earth. Even a good number in the last 3 million years. And yet still here we are? What has happened from our start to now? When were the many pyramids built? What of the "Mound Builders" in America? Even as we look back we see things that just dont fit and we sweep them under the "rug". Why? Its easy? Best to ignore the difficult question then search and share the true answer? Since the time of commerce we have had to deal with the "Have's" vs the "Have Nots"..... So the wealthy have controlled all they can to maintain there position as "Haves". A new and prime example in VW's new 300+mpg car that USA is blocking from the Americian public. Why? Well we all know why its all about $$. Same was true for Tesla, the FISH carberator and many other things that would weaken the "Haves". Soon an ELE will hit again and humanity will start from scratch we can only hope we do not travel in the path we have taken sence last ELE. So much gets lost from our past each time we begin again. The facts are simple we have an ELE we struggle to survive most Tech is abandoned for raw survivability and we begin again slowly. We cant seem to look at our past and wonder how things were done when we are wearing our own home made blinders. So we wait for the next ELE to start again. To all share your 2 cents!!!! What do you feel? Why? What brings you to your conclusion on how we have tread this earth?

I don't mean to be a pain in the @ss but if I recall correctly from my indoctrination into the world of Anthropology, humans and chimps are proposed to have a common ancestor. They are not saying we split from chimps, that implies chimps were our ancestor. Chimps are proposed to be more like our cousins.

The church goers always push that "evolution says we evolved from chimps" bologna, which drives me nuts. Now I am not saying that I categorically know what our true lineage is, but this is what the anthropologists are saying (that we have a common ancestor with chimps that dates back to ~6mya). I do feel though that the world of Anthropology is hiding a lot if info regarding our true history.

This graph points out an interesting fact that humans have fewer chromosomes than all the other apes. This shows me that we have been genetically F'ed with and possibly have been given a down-grade or had something stolen from us!

Reusus monkeys have 42 chromosomes and cows have 60. The DNA between them are almost identical. Its simply two chromosomes have joined together. If you look at the chromosomes between them you'll see similarities. Whole sections are the same but put in different places, so the packaging between the DNA is different between all species. It's amazing.
It is my hope that we will fill in those missing gaps and have a better understanding of what us humans are. I hope an extinction level event is a ways off. I do not want us to keep starting over.

apes were created from Humans by old lyrians who genetically altered humans - genetic tampering , a big no no ... the whole reason for the codex by the scientist of Arus which led to Adam's creation ... an ET man mated with an earth woman named Eve the result was a male of good form named Adam meaning earth human being , a completely new life form, from which current mankind developed ...

I for one am not a big Adam and eve fan is a bit of a strech for that to effectivly reach. And yes am sorry miss type by me about us comming from chimps meant we had common ancester. I am not superfond of the "ET" or "alien" idea either. If we changed in 10,000 years then ok something BIG happened but with 3,000,000 years of evolution i think its safe to say we developed this way with out outside help. I wasnt there to witness but am kinda secure in the "Not ET's" idea. As foe ELE well not looking forward to one persay but know one will come as they have in past and we will start over again.

It does not take an ELE event to Knock a country down technologically. We see that hurricanes and earthquakes can set you back.

There are mysteries to the human evolution. I did not know this being in the USA and I found it out in London, that there are 6 homo sapien skeletons found I think 1.6 maybe 1.8 million years ago in Georgia? South Carolina. At this point we had barely spread out of the birthplace of humanity and were pretty much in Africa, Middle East, Mediterranean into Asia but the Americas had no humans at all yet. Clearly there are contradictions.
I heard recently that they thought the Americas were invaded by other travelers perhaps many times in history. Now we are rethinking that. Because genetic markers of the Native American tribes show that they have similar markers that indicate they may have came from a very small population and spread out to all the Americas. And there may not have been as much European etc influx but they were more isolated than we thought. Originating more from South America than from North America and crossing through the Bering Strait up north.
We think one way and then we think another way, experts change their minds.
