I've seen it in the fossil record for plants, animals, insects.
Darwin's theory of evolution breaks down when it comes to humans.
And it breaks down for this reason.
We now can do what used to sound like science fiction.
If you ever saw the first Jurassic Park where they pulled the DNA out of the fossilized remains of ancient forms of life.
In the movie, they brought them back to life.
To the best of my knowledge, we haven't done that.
What we have done is we can extract that DNA from the bone marrow of fossilized remains of beings that we used to believe were our ancestors.
And what's happening is, and this is a mind blower, we know that we didn't descend from Neanderthal.
We shared the earth with them, certainly, and some people have some Neanderthal DNA because of that, but we did not descend from them
And we didn't descend from many of the other forms that you see on those traditional trees.
You know, you've got modern humans here and all these lines connecting.
But if you look close at the lines, most of them are broken lines, Joe, because there's no solid evidence.
It's called inferred or speculative relationships.
I've got a picture of it here if we want to see that.
But what they're showing is that we showed up.
about 200,000 years ago.
And now there's a little evidence that may have been back as far as 300,000.
But the kicker is that we can now look at the DNA and reverse engineer it and say, what did it take to get where we are?
And what scientists are now calling the smoking gun, and there's still a lot of controversy around this, is human chromosome number two.
