So what's the purpose of this...Even if we knew for certain...What end does it produce??...Just how brilliant these "scientists" are?? Another self-serving "Grant" funded by you and me...so some dudes can write a paper and receive accolades.
It's crap science...just like global warming.

There are a lot of reasons that hooman beans are divided as they are but I seriously doubt tattoos are one of them.

I guess humans were the only creatures that were affected by the calamities. The moron scientist can never admit that man and monkeys aren’t related.

Talking to a friend last night...The difference between man and beast...A lion or whatever beast...remains the same forever. He does not “upgrade”. Only humans upgrade and “progress” in sustaining themselves....always looking for the better mousetrap.

Since the main argument for the calamity caused population bottleneck was the lack of genetic diversity, if the lack of diversity has this other proposed cause, that means there is no evidence for the bottleneck, and therefore no evidence for the calamity. If there was no calamity, there is no reason to try to find out what the calamity was!

"The moron scientist can never admit that man and monkeys arent related." Sorry, but the scientific evidence says they are, and with DNA analysis these days, we can say exactly how closely. The only "morons" in the equation are people who say they aren't related.

It’s all fun and games until they found the blond guy in the Chinese graveyard.
Somehow they never just get it right.

Over time, most populations went extinct, allowing the genes of only a few groups to proliferate, further erasing genetic diversity.Notice how they carefully dance around what is by far the most likely reason most groups went extinct.
The survivors wiped them out. But in today's world we're supposed to think war and massacre was invented by white men, mostly Americans.

Old question , If we came from monkeys How come there are still monkeys? I am not refuting scientific evidence one way or the other, just asking, and why, then, are the species of monkeys and humans that survived so different? ( not counting some of my kinfolk in East Texas :) )

To: Quickgun
Maybe some of these “educated” people came from monkeys. A lot is written in the Bible about them. ;0)

I don’t know, have you seen some of the pierced, tatooed and scarified haridans that pass for females in the young hip culture?
Nasty!

Those are Tocharians:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tocharians
They were the only group of Indo-Europeans that went east from the their ur-heimat north of the black sea. All the other groups went north, west, south, or southeast. Maybe they just wanted to be different.

Another self-serving "Grant" funded by you and me...so some dudes can write a paper and receive accolades. If you had read the article you would have known that the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology is in Leipzig, Germany
And it is attitudes like yours that are driving scientists out of this country. The last thing we need is a brain drain of scientists like this. Perhaps you anti-science types could leave instead? That would be a far better trade.
