sorry man, but you need to search for the truth regarding your past and forget aboutt hisstory.
everything you just said is PURE conjecture arrived at through inferences gathered ex post facto; AKA ground and consequence.
But you are close, it's a sort of science; it's BAD science.*
On the Contrary, genetics is some of the strongest evidence one can find, so powerful infact that genetics alone can send a man to the electric chair
if genetic evidence deems him guilty.
In the case of tracking back our genealogies, it's a bit more complicated but not too complicated. Being as how the vast majorities are completely
neutral (say in genes that are switched off), each baby born has in the range of 150 new mutations. These mutations can become passed on but only to
it's own offspring and you could track it amongst people who do not carry these mutations.
The Y chromosome is only passed down the male side and Mitochondrial DNA is only passed down the female line - males of course do get mitochondrial
DNA but don't pass theirs on.
All the genetic lineages converge on Y Chromosomal Adam - the common male ancestor for all humanity, and Mitochondrial Eve, the common female ancestor
for all humanity.
It's also why genetic diversity in humans is pathetic because of this rather recent bottleneck in our genetics. Chimps have far far more genetic
diversity than we do.
SCIENCE! It delivers.

JP,
OT's been trying to kindly show him this for a few yrs now....
Thx!
Your answer will never be better than sciences because you start with your conclusions first, and then like an idiot, actually rely on confirmation
bias. You do not have a methodology capable of detecting truth, rather one that'll lead you from it.
Truth cannot be hidden according to your bible, then why is it that you can never prove me wrong? Why is it that science has an answer for all your
criticisms of evolution? Why are your criticisms born out of a depressingly poor understanding of evolutionary theory?
You'll never show me anything because you have nothing of merit, hence why I departed from it in the first place.
