Do you believe in the theory of evolution pertaining to us human beings being direct descendants of primates? Yes we do share 98 % of the same dna, but seriously what happened to all the monkeys that did not evolve?? They must be duds??? LOL--Sorry, It is obsurd to me, all though I do believe there is an adaptability factor with in certain enviroments as far as interesting species of animals go, but we people with our 98 % DNA shared still have the 2 % that renders us a different species-do you agree??? Talk to me with your 2% reasoning abilities and open mindness ;) Let's see what you have to say on the matter...........Thanx!

what you think being an anthropologist means. How do you feel when someone thinks you dig up dinosoars or that you're a sociolgist?
Please, state if you're in school for anthropology or if you are an anthropologist, thanks.

It's held as face by many that all races are equal, but with no evidence to back this theory. Over 5,000 years of selective breeding separates the golden retriever from the pitbull with a 0.2% DNA difference. Over 60,000 years of selective breeding separates the white race from the black race with a 0.2% DNA difference. Also, when people say all races are equal in which way do they mean it? Are all races equal in beauty, intelligence, and creativity? Because history suggests otherwise.

According to Professor of Anthropology at Harward and University of Pennsylvania Carlton Steven Coon he believes that Montenegrins are Albanians that were Slavized and he basis his theory on the similarities in the genetic makeup of the two and cultural similarities. Also when Albanian warrior prince Scanderbeg formed the "League of Albanian Princes" he included a Stephan Cernojevic of Zabiak, Montenegro perhaps because of this fact.

Many scientists believe that Homo Erectus eventually developed into humans, or Homo Sapiens. Scientists once thought that Neandethals were ancestors of modern humans but no longer do. These hominids appeared 200,000 years ago. They lived in caves of built shelters of wood of animal skins. At one time, they were thought to be rough and wild people. Now scientists think that they may have had religious beliefs. These people found ways to survive the freezing cold of the Ice Age. About 30,000 years ago, the Neanderthals strangely disappeared. About 10,000 years before these people vanished, the Cro-Magnons appeared. Their bodies were just like those of modern people. Scientists think that these people worked with one another in planning large scale hunts of animals. They may also had more skill at speaking than did the Neanderthals. B/C they had these skills, the Cro-Magnons were better at finding food. That may explain why Cro-Magnons survived and Neanderthals didn't.

The first humans had faced a struggle for survival. For thousands and thousands of years, they has two concerns: finding food and protecting themselves. They used fire, built shelters, made clothes, and developed spoken language. These areas of life are all part of culture. Human culture changes over time as new tools replaced old and people tested new ideas. Later some modern humans increased the pace of change. The people who had lives in the early part of the Old Stone Age were nomads. They moved from place to place. They were hunter-gatherers. They found food by hunting and gathering nuts, berries, and roots. The Cro-Magnon people, who came later, made tools to help them in their search. These early modern humans used many tools more than 100 different ones. They used stone, bone, and wood. They made knives, hooks, and bone needles. Cro-Magnon people also created works of art, including paintings.

They know they are biped because of the pelvic bone, and they know that they were very, very hairy. How did they find that out with the bones they excavated?

Orthodox Jews have called Madonna`s interest in the faith an abomination.

Is it and is she merely a covert spokeswoman for the PLO?

Can one really convert to become a Jew or is it a tribal thing dating back centuries?

When in New York I was privy to the situation of a Jewish girl marrying a non-Jew who converted. The mother is an Israeli who cuddles the kids and calls them `mamele`. Pretty funny when one of the kids is called `Reilly`.

It`s all got pretty mixed up. What with the current trends toward multiculturalism, orthodox Jewry doesn`t stand a chance and slippery slugs like Madonna merely reflect the slide toward Jewish obsolescence.

Is it true that only a small number of ancient artifacts are known to us and that there are still many more waiting to be found? How could an archeologist get involved in the search for these artifacts and not get stuck doing research, writing papers and generally not working in sites?
