News?
Friday, October 26th, 2007As i was reading the news this morning, it struck me that alot .. and i mean ALOT of people are still holding on to the theory of evolution.
How can anyone choose to beleive that they came from monkeys is just beyond me. ( Just as much why some people think we’re decendents of aliens -__- "" )
NST online published 2 articles which in my opinion makes me feel that they’re on the right track in truthful journalism.
"Science: Old bones poke holes in theory"
Surprising research based on two African fossils suggests our family tree is more like a wayward bush with stubby branches, challenging what had been common thinking on how early humans evolved.
Oh! sooo surprising~~ The article further writes that this discredits the iconic illustration of human evolution that begins with a knuckle-dragging ape and ends with a briefcase-carrying man.
Apparantly they said " The complete skull of Homo erectus was found within walking distance of an upper jaw of Homo habilis, and both dated from the same general time period. That makes it unlikely that Homo erectus evolved from Homo habilis"
YES! you can NOt get ERECTUS from habilis!
"YourHealth: A not-so-useless appendage"
For such a long time we have all heard and thought the appendix was a vestigial part of our bodies but new research shows that It is a "safe warehouse" for those good germs working in your gut.
Indeed, in less developed countries, where the appendix is more useful, the rates of appendicitis are much lower as other studies have shown.
The researcher commented how this could be beacause of our overly hygienic diet that causes an over reaction from our immune ssystem.
So it clearly shows that every part in our body plays a role.. even if you think its redundant.
Here’s a DID YOU KNOW part
Do you know that… if there were no germs in the gut, you would be dead in just three days?
Wow.. now we know~
OKok..the whole point of this is to tell you that scientist are learning more and more things about our biological history but yet they refuse to discredit evolution all together. why?
Because the only alternative is the idea that SOMEONE created you! ( NO! aliens don’t count! )
