Reading this and the your results reminds me of a docu-show I watched literally 3 days ago.
There is a professor of african american history @ YALE(and I'll give his real name for verification..lol!) Dr. Henry Louis Gates. He has had been interested in the subject of AA history as he, like many african americans in....well...America, can only trace their family history to slavery...if that's even possible for most...then its a deadend.

Well, with recent disclosed advances in gene mapping and tracing markers in humans (womens mitochrondrial dna=maternal lineage and markers in men, a Y-chromosome marker=paternal lineage), Dr. Gates began tracing his family history and those of prominent(see Famous)african-americans based on actual documents available going back to slavery. And at the point the path ran cold, he then went to science to provide point of origins for himself and his documentary subjects, and what he discovered about himself was shocking to him, to say the very least.

From DNA samples taken from all subjects, including himself, 6 of the 8 people had origins tied to specific groups or regions in africa. The shocker? Though, based on appearance and immediate/past family, Dr. Gates himself and former astronaut Mae Jemison, their DNA were not reflected to have origin in africa.

Meaning? Dr. Gates was discovered to be a "perfect" mix(50/50) of european and something. But he looks "black", has "black" family members and all that. Does that mean he's an alien/proclaiming to be? No.

One possibility that was expressed by the scientist Dr. Gates tested with, is that all 8 of his great, great,great grandparents were themselves Biracial children, and its a fact that many slaveowners back then "dabbled in the pot" so to speak. The possible reason the african side of Dr. Gates and frmr astronaut Mae Jemison not having a DNA connection to africa, may be due to the group of people that carried their particular markers NO LONGER EXIST. (I'm sure the human genome project was discussed here on ATS
, I wasn't a member here at that time it was introduced)

If you have done the tracing already, you must acknowledge the same possibility that shocked Dr. Gates and Mae Jemison. You already know england/britain was a colonialist empire, do the math. You've already got an indian beacon in your gene code, from your own admission.
You also look totally european, once again from your admission, and for you, looking at family proves that
To be fact. Is it so hard to admit(1) you are possibly truly human? (2)With a little indian in your bloodline?

I plan on doing this(gene mapping) myself, as I'm african american and with that, my same curiosity reflects that of Dr. Gates, I'd like to know where my family comes from.

But look up the YALE professor I talked about. His and his subjects journeys of self discovery will be all there.

Those that I remember as participants were as follows(but I may have forgotten some): Chris Tucker(actor,comedian), Whoopi Goldberg(actress, comedian), Quincy Jones(composer, producer), T.D. Jakes(religious figure), Oprah Winfrey(billionaire/ talk show host), Don Cheadle(actor, film :Hotel Rwanda"), Mae Jemison(NASA astronaut), and Dr. Henry lewis Gates himself(Yale professor/film maker).

In closing, we are all here(in regards to ATS members) to search for/ uncover truth, but that journey begins with the individual truth.
98%
of human genes match primates, we accept that. The other 2% is what makes us human. To acknowledge/verify we are human is the first step. To find where it(the 2%), comes from is step 2.
Your particular journey is still @ step 1.

Come onnnnn, 'human-like DNA'? Cut the crap please, your DNA showed up as being human. Saying 'human-like' infers that it is similar, but not exactly the same.

Also;

Further, upon checking the profile against a European database, no links to any native European populations were found. This leaves only a few possibilities; 1) the DNA profile is in error, 2) Anthra is, in fact, Extraterrestrial.

Seriously? You are a complete fruitcake. There's literally nothing anyone can do that will convince you that you're human is there.

Sure there is ... present an intelligent argument that explains the facts.

If you want to believe I'm Human, dispite the fact that the scientific evidence seems to be moving away from that conclusion, go right ahead, keep your little head in the sand.

One of the things that is holding the Human race back is lack of enlightenment. People like you are major contributors to that.

In fact, wouldnt it be an even better idea to get yourself compared with a close family members DNA? At the very least that would show whether you are actually related or not.

I am now convinced the OP is not human. He is a troll.

I selected this test because it was; 1) misrepresented as being fairly accurate, 2) affordable.

Well you've managed to put yourself back a fair bit there then by going for the cheap option. Money issues or not, there's zero point being tested on your ancestry if you're trying to show you are a different species. Even if your ancestry was as you expected it to be you would still argue that it doesnt prove anything.
It takes literally about 5 seconds to find a whole mess of crap that rubbishes the method of DNA testing that was used as well.

The results placing me in an Indian population isn't as "non-telling" as you might think. While the people of India are as Human as you, I am clearly NOT Indian. Further, if my Human Family tree is to be used in this query, then there is NO possibility of Indian heritage. But, it does begin to build a case for me not being who I was told I am by all you loving Humans.

Er, you clearly have indian in you somewhere otherwise the results would have pointed to somewhere else. And you do know that it is possible that your family tree could be correct, and that the indian part of it came into play earlier than 600+ years ago, right?
