With bananas, the original genetic strains have become exitinct and so all bananas are reproduced asexually through human intevention. With human beings, cumulative damage to the male Y chomosome is likely to make the chromosome inviable within the next 15,000 years and so the human race is likely to have to survive by asexual assited reproduction.
There is much banana like about humans.
OK, that makes sense.
But the rest of it, the human race is going to be artificially kept alive? Wow, that's some theory there. Will Nibiru hit us before that happens?
Asexual reproduction of humans. Does that mean The Hunger Games will be real, in the future?
And that will lead to some terrible racism. Which groups should be allowed to pass while some others are manipulated? See, that is a little irresponsible because people will take that and try to justify racism.edit on 3/28/2014 by WarminIndy because: (no reason given)

OP, you made some claims that many people here on ATS would agree with.
the problem is that it tend to get lost in bitter - sweet mix of science, philosophy, spirituality and biology.
talk less - say more-
I do agree with you.
It's a tough thing. We need to see each other's sides before expecting each side to believe or have faith in claims made in the name of science or religion.
I said that I don't know how the great intelligent designer did it, but if that great one made us related to bananas, I did say that I think it is possible as man does come from the ground. That is something I can't deny. And if that is the case, then we could be related to bananas, I just wanted to know exactly what was common. I did say carbon and that's where I will stand on that. But water? Everything needs water to live. That's why I found that one funny.
Is it fair to say that I believe the great intelligent designer did this but breathed into us the breath of life? Is it fair to say that if we come from the ground and as that last thing designed, we were special enough to be so different because we have intellect and the power to reason?
If you put it that way, that we share common characteristics because ultimately we came from the same ground, then that is acceptable to me. I don't know why people assume that because I questioned the banana/human connection that it meant I believed that man was independently created out of nothing. That was not what I was thinking. But if you say carbon is our common ancestor, I will totally agree.

The most likely scenario is that Neanderthal , Denosovan and Floresiensis are descended from H. Erectus or Rudolphensis.
Neanderthal was never in Africa. The closest they came to making it back to Africa was the Middle East and that was only during a period of lower temperatures. They just couldn't handle the warmer climate. There are more really amazing sites in the Levant(a valley that runs from northern Israel up into Lebanon) where AMH and Neanderthal cohabitated for approximately 50,000 years on and off. I'm very certain that they not only occupied the same areas at the same time but Lso lived and worked together. They buried their dead in the same cemeteries and utilized the same type of grave goods and the remains are located in the same strata. There's just no way one or the other would be sharing burial grounds if they didn't live and work together and have close relationships and possibly familial ties though the last one is pure speculation on my part.

You agree with PROBABLY but it could also be NOT PROBABLY as well.
But your consensus is PROBABLY without investigation? And you say you are scientific minded. Go look and see it it is probably that, then come back and tell us if it is.
By the way, Jones said it in The Single Helix and none of you even mentioned that. So, you didn't even know where the claim originated.
Therefore, as you guys say, extraordinary claims need extraordinary evidence. Read the book then come back and tell us what it says, does it say PROBABLY the basic things like chemical processes?
Who here has read The Single Helix?

Hopefully, by then, we should get past such primitive and useless ideas such as biological differences. By then there may be recognition of more than two genders and also several other machine/human hybrids and alternate expressions of "humanness".
