I have heard that when primitive Africans saw a white man get out of an airplane they thought he was god. Is that true.

It has been suggested that Neanderthals interbred with humans, forming hybrids, and soon dissipated due to over breeding. According to wikipedia, "Edward Rubin of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, California states that recent genome testing of Neanderthals suggests human and Neanderthal DNA are some 99.5 percent to nearly 99.9 percent identical". When would a human be considered human? When two "species" are 99.9 percent alike, you'd assume they'd be part of the same species. Don't most ethnicities differ by .01% in genetics, but are still considered human?

Many of us born to the rich of richest, many to the poor of the poorest.... and this holds true in social, racial status etc., which serves the basis for fighting amongst us? Why God is so biased amongst creatures???

I ask because when I was in high school we learned that the Americas were sparsely populated when the Europeans arrived, and most of the inhabitants were nomadic tribes of one sort of another. Also, they were naieve politically

Turns out that research since at least the 60s is leading people to believe that the Americas had more people than Europe at the time, and that cities like Tenochtitlan were more populous than Paris (and in better condition, with running water etc.). The disparity seems to come from the fact that by the time later Europeans came to document the native peoples, up to 8 or 9 in 10 native peoples had died due to smallpox, influenza, or other disease brought (unintentionally in the vast majority of cases) by Europeans. That accounts for millions of people and also for the quick fall of some of the civilizations after conflict with Europe.

Also there was complex, Machiavellian politics in the new world before Eurpeans came.

Do they teach any of this these days?

Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens were on earth at the same time. Homo Sapiens out-competed them, and the neanderthals died off. Do you think we are still evolving, and maybe there is more than one species of human now? And, are they out-competing us?

My husband bought this about 20 years ago when he was in Japan. He can't remember what it means. Could someone tell me what kind of markings these are or the meaning of this medallion. We know that it isn't Japanese, but what is it?

we the human race have entered into a period which could be the most defining part of the history of human race. science and technology at all time fast rate of growth, is making human life more easier for those who can afford and more difficult to those who cant . more and more humans are being annihilated by members of own species.this phenomenon is almost unknown in any other species. human psychology is also changing dramatically from high priority to moral values and ethics to a trend towards high priority to materialistic attitude and self centeredness. if this trends keep growing where will this human race be standing after a period of 100 years

The Ica stones are a collection of 11,000 supposedly ancient pottery showing human beings fighting recognisable dinosaurs and doing other modern things.

I've only recently heard of them, so I do not yet know what to believe regarding them. I'm not arguing for or against the authenticity of the stones. I just want your opinions. Any opinions?

You can find some pictures of them here:
