Where did I get my blonde hair and blue eyes from? I reckon I'm a Viking.

Spicey....there are millions of people in America, that actually believe that ancient man ( and woman ) chased dinosaurs for their lunch !

One of my daughters gets hers from a bottle!

[youngmafbog]

All down to films probably Mickey, and I suspect the belief goes far beyond the shores of the USA.

[Tilly2]

No bottle here, Ymb. :-)

[mikey4444]

"born-again Christians" believe that the Earth is only approx 6000 years old, despite this being impossible.

And that daft belief is becoming more widespread over here in Britain, which, to be frank, I find really worrying.

[anotheoldgit]

It would seem not, in fact it is highly debatable..

Any fool would know it was the other way around.

I can think of religious foibles that worry me far more, Mikey.

[mikey4444]

lol spicey !

Could come in handy mind......when "the usual suspects"( see I can use it too) are calling us racist. We just say "is it cus I is black"?

[naomi24]

^Now there's a thought. :o)

[Spicerack]

Here's another thought. We'll ALL be white in a few thousand years.

[scooping]

They were not neanderthals.
Homo sapiens and neanderthals are different species. It is generally presumed that homo sapiens caused the extinction of neanderthals as they were more developed and had a higher skill capability.

[hereIam]

No!

[mikey4444]

Garaman....to quibble just a teeny bit......were there any "Immigrants" black or not 10,000 years ago ?

[cassa333]

LOL we are all immigrants of one description or another. And if mankind first originated in Africa then it is highly likely that all people all over the world ever are descended from black people.

I didn't think this was new news?

[Mamyalynne]

Does anyone really give a cuckoo's feather what shade our ancient ancestors were?

Apart from the interesting methods of the discovery of course.

I'm just glad to be here and enjoying my life.

Adam and Eve had 3 sons, and we are all descended from Adam and Eve, just think about that.

[Mamyalynne]

A subject long debated.
