Okay I am sorry for the last tread I made, I've done some research and I was right , we did not evolve from apes (as I said) , but from hairy ape like creatures :

They where very different from apes . They were omnivores (not like apes) and the used a language which I could not find out what it was and they used tools . And they lived in caves .

Who supports my opinion ?

We share a common ancestor.

Yes there are many controversial points in the African origin of modern humans, but it's more reliable and realistic than the multiregional origin of modem humans.
The multiregional theory has been criticized because Ancient mitochondrial DNA sequence, extracted from 37,000 years old Neanderthal specimen, and mitochondrial DNA from present day humans have different sequence. However, the largest example of sequenced Neanderthal nuclear DNA comprised 1 million base pairs compared to a human nuclear genome size of roughly 3 billion base pairs. This amounts to a comparison of only 0.033% of the genomes.

I comlpetely agree. I was just trying to outline the difficullties with the Out of Africa theory.. in reality I agree with it because as you sat other theories don't quite work.

Some theories can be rather racist insinuating certain groups of people are "less human" than other races.

Probably we Europeans are less humans, we have some Neanderthal blood.

The one I have looked at said it was Asians (and people from Oxford lol) that were less human.

There are many theories which say that the Neanderthals did not disappear, the homo sapiens started killing them and making children with them. So some of the Europeans aren't homo sapiens, they are home sapiens who have some Neanderthal ancestors.

There was abit of argument going on between whether Homo sapiens killed off neanderthals or wethaer we just intergrated to them. There isn't really enough evidense either way especially as no "hybrid" skeleton has been found that isn't really debatable.

Some persons have a Neanderthal look.
I had to make a stupid Neanderthal joke.
