"Human Life originated in Africa."
 

Now, this is an interesting one, because the people who "discovered" this make no efforts to hide that they think it started with a black man. I am not going to attempt to disprove this by science, nor do I want to. I have seen other evidence that shows human life did not originate in Africa. What I am going to do is toss some logic and common sence your way.

Let's just say, for arguments sake, that human life DID originate in Africa. Wow, the first human being. That would mean this "race" would be far and above all others on the evolutionary ladder, and it would also mean that the birth of civilization was non-Western. Let's just assume that since the first man was in Africa, that would naturally mean the first settlement was in Africa as well. They should be heads and tails above all others, but they are not.

Africa of the past and Africa of the present are eerily similar. Both practice cannibalism, female mutilation, tribal warfare, slavery and other nice little neanderthal-like things. Where are the great, vast African civilzations, where are the GREAT African inventions (you can save stuff like Peanut Butter and the Traffic Light, I am talking about mathematic inventions, world changing inventions, stuff of great importance, etc.)?

Now, since "African man" was first and Whitey was second, since then we caught up quite a bit. Modern civilization as we know it has the White man to thank for it. Government, monetary systems, roads, transportation, etc. are all products of our race's ingenuity.

Meanwhile, the African man's evolutionary ladder seems to drop a few steps; whereas, the White man can collectively act civilized in Western society, the black man ON A WHOLE remains similar to the tribal ways. Violence, "conquests", gangs (tribes), drum beat music (rap) and horrific living conditions (you can compare African conditions to any ghetto and find some similarities).

So, you see, whether or not African man was first, they sure as hell didn't take advantage of it now did they?

who cares?

hey i believe it, i've seen all the articles in the newspaper...i think we did come from africa...spent a whole morning coked out reading a weeks worth of newspaper last sunday...

"Primitive" man is more human than civilized man...

I saw a movie recently about a jewish family that escaped the Nazis in Africa... Very beautiful portrayal of life in Africa...

:ticking

Face it. Your black. You have white skin, but your black. Get over it. Move on.

I like Snoop Dog.

But I cant understand what that fucker is saying half the time.

F'shizzle my nizzle.

TheFLY, you are hereby officially ejected from the Boneprone family.

Cool it on the sig -- you'll be banned...

The rule is a thumbnail image + 3 lines of text...

And for the record, BP4L is far from being racist... Get your facts straight. I know you're just trying to stir up some shit -- but don't be stupid...

Gee so if an ultrafine femmes of ebony extraction like National Security Advisor Dr. Condoleezza Rice don't met with your approval I guess there's more for the rest of us.

You're so whacked any Irishman knows his problems all too well to go claiming superiority you should help the homeland if you give half the damn you proport.

If Africans turned the continent into sand it compares favorably to upcoming events like rising sea level, global warming, flesh-eating nanobots. While you are enjoying your superiority keep in mind they are still 20,000 years ahead of you and you'll never catch up, even while they had enough sense to stop at some point.

By the way fucktard white doesn't mean shit. It's Celt, Anglo-Saxon Nordic Slavic etc. and if you had any understanding you would know that the rifts between people of white skin are larger than with many others. Or maybe you hadn't noticed that some white brothers nearly heated your ass to 10,000 degrees in the 60's Mr. world traveler.

BTW last week three new skulls were displayed that nicely anchor humans to African origins Mr. pseudo-scientist. Let me rephrase: You don't know shit about science, your homeland, or other people living on planet Earth. You don't belong on the web you belong on some lame IRC channel that even the Feds don't bother monitoring beyond scanning for the words 'sniper' and 'bomb'. Let me save you some time. The world doesn't share your hate they just know you suck. You are a cold sore on the group you purport to represent. There are actually real issues you are too isolated to understand or influence because they come in greyscale, technicolor or God forbid 3D which only looks like flies buzzing around a white screen in your posterized bivalent black/white lunacy. Onto the news:

Three fossil skulls from Ethiopia have been revealed as the oldest human remains yet discovered.

The 160,000-year-old finds plug an important gap in the fossil record around the time our species first appeared and provides strong new evidence that Homo sapiens originated only in Africa.

"These are landmark finds in unravelling our origins," says Chris Stringer, at the Natural History Museum in London, and a champion of the 'Out of Africa' hypothesis. He believes modern humans evolved in Africa before migrating across the globe, rather than evolving in parallel in different places.


"The problem with the African record is that it has been really sketchy," says Tim White at the University of California, Berkeley, who led the team that made the discoveries. There are good human fossils from 100,000 years ago, he adds, but from then back to 300,000 years ago the remains are either highly fragmented, poorly dated or both.

In contrast, the newly revealed skulls have precise dates thanks to the fragments of volcanic rocks found with the fossils. When rocks cool, they begin to accumulate argon gas from the decay of a potassium isotope. Analysing the gas gives the rock's age, in this case 154,000 to 160,000 years old.

Actually, the point of the post by IrishJay was that White people have advanced regardless of it's roots, where as Africa and it's "beautiful black kings and queens" have not.

If the White race originate from the Black race, what does that say? That the Black race has not advanced significantly for a very, very long time.

Personally, I couldn't care whether we originated in Iceland or on Mars, we are a unique people with a right to exist and have our own lands regardless.

Define "advanced" retard.

Do you really think pollution and ergonomic office chairs are advancements? Don't be a fool. The frontier of humanity is not 0-60 lap times... Do you have a soul?

Comfort != Advancement

Save your breath and go wax your car again :1orglaugh

You DO know this is a board for adult webmasters, do you WM?

I don't think you will sell many books here. Might I suggest a community with more in common with you - much higher recruitment prospects: SMSO

The questions I have to ask you, White Male is .. are all stupid people really this stupid?

I should know better than join a thread like this on GFY, but it's almost 5am and I need a break.

That statement really does nothing except illustrate that every society has its own definition of "advance". To Europeans, US citizens have the best taste that money can buy. The Japanese not only have a poor opinion of all western "culture" but we actually smell bad to them because of our animal fat laden diet. The Chinese combine modern technology with a peasant society that has been unchanged for thousands of years. Etc.

Even among industrialised nations we don't even have a common standard as to what being "civilised" means. And if we could define a common standard today, there is no reason to be optimistic that such a standard would hold good for very long.

What we loosely refer to as "first world" countries are currently doing their level best to destroy their own environment. If they only manage to destroy themselves, will any of them be thought of as "civilised" in future?

Maybe we will not go that far. Maybe the G7 countries will just keep exporting jobs so that the steady economic decline of the past 30 years will become a route.

Whatever may happen, throughout man's relatively short history no-one has stayed on top for very long. When the Romans invaded Britain they encountered savages covered in blue paint. A few hundred years later the Roman Empire was gone while the sun never set on the British Empire. Now that has all but gone too.

In less than 100 years, Asian countries have changed from being primarily a source of western wealth to a major economic force in their own right. During that same period the US in particular has tried to keep the middle east destabilised, but arab nationalism and arab wealth continues to increase. Etc. Etc.

It isn't even necessary to get into debates such as what exactly "White" means. The fact remains that the most anyone can claim is that by their own standards, right now they are on top of the heap. Even in the unlikely event that those standards have any real meaning, it is plainly foolish to suggest that such short-lived supremacy indicates any innate superiority of either nation or ethnicity.

People with black skin came from areas with blood parasites. Skin with ample melanin production is more resistant to such environments. However it consumes more energy and therefore is less advantageous in many temperate climates.

Taken literally you are saying that people who have lived away from blood parasites for a few dozen generations are superior and enlightened. If they instead die of cholera, dysentery, bubonic plague, smallpox and war it's ok as long as they stay away from mosquitos and flies? By avoiding these particular bugs humans will gain utopia?

I told you twelve hours ago to trim that fucking FPA in your sig asshole....

bye.

Ok dude, now face the history...
The pyramids have been built 4 thousand years ago... and they are in Africa. 4 thousand years ago the white men did not even know how to make a decent house, and the black egyptians were building pyramids (Now is when you need to read Herodothos, a nice greek author who wrote about the pyramids some years ago I think it was some centuries B.C.).
Ahhh, I forgot that you are a racist, so you think you are from the real Arian race. Well, now go get a gun and shot yourself because your origin is Indo-Iranian. Yes, White men civiliuzation has Indo-Iranian origin (and you are speaking indoeuropean language). The real Arian race are the ancient Persians (Hope you have read some ancient books... I mean books before Hittler, prefered books from the old Greek or Rome empire, you will see who are the arians there). Now you must know that Persia = Iran (When the Ayatolah Homeini kicked the Sha of Persia from Persia, he renamed it to Iran).

About your thoughts if the first human was white or black... Who the fuck cares. The most probable thing is that he was some kind of super evoluted monkey.

Well, my advice... read books, sometimes it helps to fight ignorance.

PS: I am white, probably more white than you because I have a certificate that in 20 generations of my family ALL have been white.
Of course, I can read... and I do read, so I do not get pissed off when someone says that the first human was black.

Your statement that "They (Africa) should be heads and tails above all others, but they are not" is false and I think not so much because of your judgement of what is progress but rather because of your assumption that length of time occupying an area assumes one will head down a particular path leading to advanced civilization.

There are no hard and fast rules about the rate a civilization should "progress". Much of what we deem "progress" is response to environment, random cultural drift, and good fortune (or choice) in location.

What were the conditions in which "civilization" appeared around the globe? There are many. One obvious example when you look at them is the number of advanced ancient civilizations that flourished near the banks of rivers (Amazon, Nile, Yangtze, Tigris/Euphrates). This would have probably been a better predictor of a civilization appearing than how long people lived in a region. There are many regions of the globe that have changed only a little in the past few hundred years and yet there have been dramatic changes elsewhere. This is not related to how long those people have been there.

"Came from Africa" does not mean black (nor white) so you can put away your KKK hat.

I suggest reading "Guns, Germs, and Steel" by Jared Diamond to begin your path to enlightenment.

and where Len's check originated from?

Apparently this fellow knows almost as little about anthropology as he does about spelling. Heh.

for christs sake.. buy a ticket..go to his house...beat him down..make him write the check at gun point and quit whining :1orglaugh

I have no money to buy a ticket,
all I have left is $7.95 to file in the small claim court in Florida and confiscate Len's Internext party boat!
;-)))

its not often I see an ass that really makes me look twice

but DAYUM!! that's some tight hot ass!!!

<img src="http://www.ferris.edu/jimcrow/cartoons/heritage.jpg">

You need a serious history lesson

If anything most of all science, mathematics, and numerous advances orginated from the egyptians and asians

The ancient Egyptians has always been considered the first civilized society

Rooster,

You also wear a white sheet over your head at night?

You can believe what you want to believe but don't turn this board into any KKK shit.....with that out of the way

Is not the white man who strips the earth of its natural resources?
(Which everyone has to suffer from)

Oh yes I will not doubt the fact that SOME black people do some stupid things that bring us down...but that absolutely pales in comparison to the hundreds of millions of people (white themselves included) have killed over the centuries.
From

Germany which killed millions of Jews during the second world war, this was caused by a limited few (but now the Germany people have suffer for those actions)
----Hitler had some, 10 million people killed. 6 million Jews,
---- 3 million Russians and about a million others.

Russia - "One death is a tragedy; a million is a statistic. "- Joseph Stalin.....(if anyone would like to justify that for me please go right ahead) Now this a man... a white man that is who killed not only millions people from other countries... but he killed more of his own people then he did of enemy countries.
Now Cannibalism I hate to say it is know to occur in some parts of Africa though it is rare now a days...How it works if the ENEMY( and only the enemy) or a traitor is captured then that?s when it occurs and yes yes( its cruel, inhuman, and people are killed...obviously...but now refer back to our Russian friends whose czar way back loved to torture there victims Peter the great killed many of his own people including his own son... through torture, which some of the methods they used was said to be one of the most painfuliest ways a person could die...( is that cruel yes.... is it inhuman(GOD YES)... some people hang on these contraptions for 15 days and nights straight their entire body from head to toe inflicted with pain and un able die. Am I justifying the act of cannibalism in comparison to torture, no way, to think about it hurts my head..... but reality is you guys do things far crueler then any black man can think of

Oh and lastly Native Americans were well known for there acts of cannibalism

"Stalin killed some 30 million of his own people. Over 20 million Ukrainians alone in the 1920's whom he had slowly starved to death when the farmers refused to accept his collectivization policies. At one point in the winter of 1926, the markets in the Ukraine were SELLING the flesh of their dead to the starving."

Damn...I guess everyone has to do what they have to at times to stay alive.


America - yeah sorry guys, but you guys aren't without blame for how the world is...yeah you remember that bomb you guys dropped... I think it was called atom bomb....yes yes....and it was helped created by white guys (Einstein ? much respect for him)...order to be dropped by your President (Franklin D. Roosevelt)...white guy. ?It has been estimated that over the years around 200,000 people have died as a result of this bomb being dropped? on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And almost 60 years later people of Japan are still suffering from the deadly side affects of the bomb.

Its no wonder you guys had to come up with all these mathematical equations (which you did't), the numbers you kill by you couldn't figure it out by just counting your fingers.

And my fucking god you talk about black people and "conquests"

You guys made the damn 20,000 page book about it.....I think you all are pretty well educated on the matter...but those who aren't I just bring up some familiar names and countries (Napoleon, Julius Caesar, (country)Britain conquered almost half the world including many parts of Africa, (country) Spain during the 15th and 16th century killing.....actually whipping out an entire people (Aztecs) for what there gold, and silver?( Now I've never been to Spain...but hmmm are the peoples skin white over there?)

Now before I go on I should clear that I do like white guys and a lot of the guys I chill with are pretty cool so I still much love for the white people... but if your judging us by the few actions others do, look in a text book and you'll read almost endless pages of acts that the white man has committed on themselves and on society....

There is no doubt that the white people have designed some amazing works of arts and technological achievements which I don't think I need to name...(look right in front of you).

The fact also in early years a lot of what you have you guys have stolen?. From spices and silk in India to the treasures found in China? and when you couldn?t get what you wanted through trade you referred back to you primitive ways and killed to get what you wanted.

And OMG then you talk about SLAVERY?.regarding the black man?you a white man talking about us and slavery?.YOUR FUCKING ignorance and lack of basic history is so sad you should be ashamed to write on this board?.. But clearly you need another history lesson you see when Christopher Columbus found America (AND HE WAS NOT THE FIRST) he slaved more then70% of the natives there the rest probably died from the disease they brang which their bodies weren?t immune to. Eventually after the population was whipped clean and there was no one to do the work for them. Who did they look to next (the black man who had developed immune system for the disease such as small pox and the rest of the crap was a perfect victim. And so began the slave trading industry from transferring African?s from Africa to the Americas which last several years.




I think every person is his own individual and white male you can?t judge and entire race by the actions a few people do especially with regards ? because if every person where to do the same white people would be considered by some races the reincarnation of the devil.

So I end with this peaceful quote by Albert Einstein

?The true value of a human being is determined primarily by the measure and the sense in which he has attained liberation from the self.?

If I have offended anyone then I do apologize just trying to get an idea across

You can compare trailor parks and redneck bastards to tribal living too, if you want. I'm white, but I sell lots of African drums. Drumming is actually an ancient, worldwide, phenomenon. Native Americans, Japanese, those in India, Pakistan, Egypt, South America, etc, etc...all hav unique drums, styles, and rituals.

In reality, everybody's been drumming since the stone age...except the awkward white guy with no rhythm. I see you're trying to put something together, but you're basing your beliefs on some vague premises that don't really add up.

Rhythm is my god.

Skin color is primarily related to UV radiation in certain regions, over time. Live in fucking Norway...your skin is going to be light...live in the desert in Africa, the pigment is going to get darker. It's a simple concept. Now, how about you put this great mind of yours to something a little more productive?

I like white people. They are silly sometimes.

You know what this means?




YOU ARE ALL ******S :boid
