Black Man Proves Biblical Adam and Eve Story is a Lie. His DNA Dates Back 338..
Black Man PROVES Adam and Eve Biblical Story is a LIE : His DNA Dates Back 338 THOUSAND YEARS! Editor’s note: This man is NOT the SC man described in the story. We use it as a visual to show you an example of the original man. #Who’sYourDaddy? As a child, the story of Adam and Eve always perplexed me.. even to my childlike sensibilities I knew it did not make any logical sense AT ALL. Countless debates and sometimes fights were had around the dinner table, as I sought to bring logic to my family who had an illogical belief in what seemed to be a completely absurd story (along with santa claus, the easter bunny, the tooth fairy and everything else fantastical) that they based their lives (and the oppression of women) around. So imagine my vindication when I found this article about a Black man in South Carolina whose DNA is traced back 338 thousand years… so now creationists have quite a conundrum to ponder: a. the entire basis of Judaism (and therefore Christianity) is myth or b. irrefutable proof that Adam and Eve were Black and created in God’s true image (a true horror to white Christian fundamentalists) These findings of course, have not been reported in mainstream… I wonder why… (that was sarcasm). Discovery News reports: An African-American man in South Carolina has lineage tracing back 338,000 years, according to a new study. The unidentified man’s Y chromosomes — a hereditary factor determining male gender — has a history so old that it predates the age of the oldest known h**o sapiens fossils, according to the report published in the American Journal of Human Genetics. The man’s chromosome carries a rare mutation, which researchers matched to a similar chromosome in the Mbo, a population living in a tiny area of western Cameroon in sub-Saharan Africa. “Our analysis indicates this lineage diverged from previously known Y chromosomes about 338,000 ago, a time when anatomically modern humans had not yet evolved,” Michael Hammer, associate professor at the Univ. of Arizona’s Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and a research scientist at the UA’s Arizona Research Labs, said via a press release. “This pushes back the time the last common Y chromosome ancestor lived by almost 70 percent.” The DNA study began after the South Carolina man submitted a small tissue sample to theNational Geographic Genographic Project. Researchers were shocked after they noticed none of the genetic markers used to assign lineages to known Y chromosome groupings were found. The man’s DNA sample was sent to Family Tree DNA for sequencing. Fernando Mendez, a postdoctoral researcher in Hammer’s lab, led the effort to analyze the DNA sequence. It included more than 240,000 base pairs of the Y chromosome. Searches through a huge database led to the Mbo connection. The scientists were then able to estimate the emergence of the chromosome mutation based on rates of change, creating a sort of “family tree” for the chromosome. The discovery doesn’t necessarily mean that all humans descended from an ancestor living in western Cameroon. “It is a misconception that the genealogy of a single genetic region reflects population divergence,” Hammer explained. “Instead, our results suggest that there are pockets of genetically isolated communities that together preserve a great deal of human diversity.” Hammer added that still “It is likely that other divergent lineages will be found, whether in Africa or among African-Americans in the U.S. and that some of these may further increase the age of the Y chromosome tree. There has been a lot of hype with people trying to trace their Y chromosome to different tribes, but this individual from South Carolina can say he did it.” The study has even further implications. It strengthens the belief that there is no “mitochondrial Eve” or “Y chromosome Adam.” All of humankind, as a result, did not descend from exactly one pair of humans that lived at a certain point in human evolution. The original source of this groundbreaking study is found in The American Journal of Human Genetics. Special shouts out to the Facebook group Blacks History And Africa Education. Editor’s Note : please keep your dissertations, short novels, and epic fictions you call comments to yourself. You have an enormous wealth of forums you can Bible thump in… This is not it. If you don’t believe in reality, that is your right, as it is mine NOT to believe in white Jesus, Yahweh or whatever you choose to name the superstition that prevents you from understanding the human genome. This article is for the people who are awake. I AM that I AM … And that is the person who won’t waste our readers time with your diatribes. If you truly believed in this god you cry about, you would be out doing charitable works, not trolling scientific articles. Now go in Peace sleepwalker. http://themadmanchronicles.com/2014/...housand-years/ |

Re: Black Man Proves Biblical Adam and Eve Story is a Lie. His DNA Dates Back 338..
Excellent post!! i can do that without using DNA though chapter two and the bible is already contradicting it'self. The story isnt coherent as far as it's timeline is concerned. There are two creation stories in Genesis and only one includes Adam and Eve. In the first creation story, God creates man "in his own image" by just speaking him into existence: Then the author forgets this story and tells a different creation story where god makes one man out of sand and one woman out of that man's rib: ....... this isnt the only contradiction. chapter 1, verse 12 "The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good."... by chapter 2 verse 5 "Now no shrub had yet appeared on the earth[a] and no plant had yet sprung up" see? lies. |

Homo is the genus of great apes that includes modern humans and species closely related to them. Homo, Latin for "man", "human being". |

If you start at the beginning of Chapter 2, it is easy to understand verse 5. I am not a Bible thumper, but my mother is. So, since she lives with me I respect her beliefs. Often, everyone is guilty of *pick & choose* what they want out of the Bible. When this is done it tells me my tattoos are wrong. Nope. Not when you read it the way it was meant to be read. |

Re: Black Man Proves Biblical Adam and Eve Story is a Lie. His DNA Dates Back 338..
the beginning of chapter two says 'on the 7th day he rested' and God told moses "Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the Lord." in Leviticus chapter 19. God lays down laws for moses... so who is picking and choosing here? keep in mind that there is a reason why this book contradicts it'self *and it often does*.... it's because the versions we read is the King James version of the bible, which is an interpretation of a lot of bibles. since we are talking about the old testament, the king james version was influenced by the Septuagint, the Masoretic text and the Vulgate version of the old testament along with others. it's not as poorly pieced together as other sacred texts though(the koran for example) i was a bible thumper for a long time and have (embarassingly enough) studied this book ad nauseam. |

this and the reason Homosexual uses the prefix Homo is because it uses the Greel version of the prefix (homos) which means 'same'
