Europe was the birthplace of mankind, not Africa, scientists find

They don't think they are in poverty.
They are happy. They are glad to take a bullet for their leader.

What do you think they will say if sombady ask..... its a survival manner to say anything else then they love the big leader might get them a bullet after. Not that NK peopel do flee to China... in such large quantities that China plane/bulding a Trump wall on the border.....

You do know that a theory in science is an accurate explanation of events supported by evidence? Just checking.

If you want to discredit, you need to call it something else.

You do know there is a difference between theory and scientific theory right?

Bronze Age Collapse is speculated to be influenced quite heavily by climate change as well.

Take Libanon... it was famous for its large forests during ancient times and its logger "industry", now its a half-desert.

This theory is still met with scepticism by some anthropologists here. The title is awfully misleading though and the text even goes as far as saying that history must be rewritten. Nothing has to be rewritten, really, the current theory will remain the most accepted theory for now since there, a) is no doubt that some earlier form of hominids existed but may not have spread further or were assimilated later on and b) the possible proofs for the new alternative migration theory are too scanty to be considered for now especially since human migration has already been mapped out of Africa through mitochondrial DNA. People seem to cling on that new theory like it is hope for some purity, but migration was always involving some intermixing with local species. It's never been pure, your own DNA says so.

What do you think the part "ïn science" means? Le fail.

In many western european countries ppl with no job getting money for free from goverment, thats a bit different from both communism and capitalism, in communist countries most ppl was forced to have job to avoid getting jailed.

That was actually part of the 10-point plan in the communist manifesto: not right to job - but the obligation of all to work.

However, officially the "communist countries" had communists in power - but were socialist countries "on the way to communism".

These socialist countries will never become communism.

Communism is not just a political system.
Everyone has to "believe".

Just like Muslim, any non-believers have to be killed (cleaned).
Even Hitler, Chairman Mao and Stalin couldn't kill ALL non-believers.
The biggest problem is that lots of people say "they believe" but they don't.

We are not there yet.
It may take hundreds of years of evolution to reach that level.

I am sure the aliens had several labs across the planet where they perfected the human race to mine gold for them.

This is a terribly misleading article. The article itself says at the end to not jump to conclusions, yet here we are... jumping to conclusions.

Don't trust science articles from newspapers, they're woefully inept at reporting. Also homo sapiens as in what we currently are, strong evidence that homo sapiens came from Africa.

I've always found it rather odd that academia holds a higher regard for the study and understanding of early evolution, as opposed to more recent and profoundly-important regional adaptations.

The explanation for why many of the regional types from W. Africa tend to be tall, lean and fast when compared against someone from, say, C. Europe is an infinitely more intriguing subject matter than which part of the world apes first learned to think outside the box.

We already know why... climatic adaption, and for tall thin people in hot climates I believe it goes by the allen's rule.

Yes you did, both are used "in science". in basic terms, a theory is untested, a scientific theory is tested.

What do you figure a hypothesis is?

Like listen to yourself. In science we say theory and scientific theory right? So... what is the first theory? The nonscientific theory in science? Very good! /golfclap

Both untested and tested theories are "in science" usually called "theories" (unless they are ridiculously falsified and discarded).

Scientists know that a "theory" isn't correct just because it has withstood falsification for centuries - but they also know that the theory is useful, and in many cases the limitations of said theory.

More importantly scientist know that you cannot base the validity of a statement on whether the prediction is made with a "scientific theory" - but whether the specific theory is applicable to the specific circumstances.

Not trying to get into all of that. Just saying there is a difference between a scientific theory and a theory.


The theory of gravity is a scientific theory, which as you said is true based upon available research and may change in the future.

This theory in the op is not a scientific theory.

I agree on the latter point, but theory of gravity is not a scientific theory. Just saying that things fall down isn't enough.

Aristotle's idea of natural motion is barely a scientific theory (and ridiculously wrong).
Newton's theory of a gravity is a scientific theory, since it makes specific predictions that have been tested (some incorrect).
Einstein's theory of general relativity is a scientific theory, since it makes specific predictions that have been tested (no errors found so far; but it doesn't explain everything).
(There are also a couple of lesser known ones.)

This idea, recent African origin model, multiregional origin all fall somewhere between "things fall down" and scientific theories - they are not sufficiently clear-cut, e.g. it is unclear if this new idea actually contradicts "out of Africa"-idea or not.

It's actually very clear that it doesn't contradict "out of Africa".

All this theory means, if it's true, is that an early hominin lived in Europe and migrated to Africa, where hominids later developed. The people trying to push for hominid development in Europe wildly misunderstand timelines and lineage to push an agenda.

lol you don't get it do you? No one uses the term theory in science unless its a scientific theory. It wouldn't make sense and would create confusion. The "non-scientific" theory you are alluding to is called a hypothesis in science.

No golfclap for you.

Huh, I mussed have missed it when they called it the hypothesis of evolution.
