out of Africa, was maybe wrong.

Ahh I thought this was a new paper, its from 2012, I've heard about this before.

Basically its saying that there are a group of unique genes present in europeans that did not originate in the african continent.

I don't think it disproves that we evolved from monkeys in africa though.

I wouldn't say sub-Saharans are monkeys, but they are certainly a different subset, from which we appear to be extrapolated from potentially an individual very successful tribe/subset/group.
Specifically, it does suggest some degree of interbreeding within the indigenous Neanderthals perhaps, or some sub subtype we then exterminated/overcame/outbred.
 
I thought it was pretty well established already that homo sapiens interbred with homo neanderthalensis when they migrated to Europe? Yeah, Europeans have some neanderthal DNA. So what?

I'll give you two clues: 1) read some of his posts, and 2) it's not the latter. I don't think that breaks the rules.


But yes, it's another person who simply refuses to believe that the ancestors of the whole human race were black. I leave it as an exercise for the reader as to why certain posters might find such an idea outrageous.

Is it because the Neanderthal gene is strong them and they've resented the rest of us suddenly arriving changing their culture and knapping flint better than them.
 
No it says,
Their origin is likely not in Africa

We believe that those arguments upon which the “Out of Africa”
theory was based were, in fact, conjectural, incomplete and not
actually data-driven. Therefore, we are left holding the question
of the origin of Homo sapiens.

We have been told that margarine is good for you then it isn't then it is same for alcohol, a glass of wine a day is good for you, then it isn't same for multi-vitamins, same for exercise also, now that's bad for you also.

I am pretty sure you will find it started in a garden, with a couple of folks, a tree, a big voice and a snake. There are many books on the subject, in various languages, and styles. These historical tales are so precise in nature that many different nations will war over the exact wording, and language and references in the books.
