The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

I've seen it in the fossil record for plants, animals, insects.

The Joe Rogan Experience

Darwin's theory of evolution breaks down when it comes to humans.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

And it breaks down for this reason.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

We now can do what used to sound like science fiction.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

If you ever saw the first Jurassic Park where they pulled the DNA out of the fossilized remains of ancient forms of life.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

In the movie, they brought them back to life.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

To the best of my knowledge, we haven't done that.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

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.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

And what's happening is, and this is a mind blower, we know that we didn't descend from Neanderthal.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

We shared the earth with them, certainly, and some people have some Neanderthal DNA because of that, but we did not descend from them

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

And we didn't descend from many of the other forms that you see on those traditional trees.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

You know, you've got modern humans here and all these lines connecting.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

But if you look close at the lines, most of them are broken lines, Joe, because there's no solid evidence.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

It's called inferred or speculative relationships.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

I've got a picture of it here if we want to see that.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

But what they're showing is that we showed up.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

about 200,000 years ago.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

And now there's a little evidence that may have been back as far as 300,000.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

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?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2387 - Gregg Braden

And what scientists are now calling the smoking gun, and there's still a lot of controversy around this, is human chromosome number two.
