The history of human origin from a monkey, despite its numerous confirmations, is still being called into question. Let’s see what evolution is a myth and what is reality.
10. Most scientists do not agree with the theory of the origin of man from the monkey
Scientists of various specialties have been arguing for a long time about the origin of man. The hypothesis put forward by Charles Darwin is currently being called into question for a number of reasons. Yes, man, of course, bears a resemblance to a monkey more than to other inhabitants of the Earth. However, this does not prove that humans descended from monkeys. The opinion of geneticists contradicts the fact of the origin of people from monkeys. The scientific world says that, most likely, these two species: people and monkeys, in addition to the similarity of behavior and external similarity, have nothing more in common.
9. Fossils found by scientists - who are they? Ancestors of ancient people or ancient monkeys?
The remains found by anthropologists relate to both ancient people and ancient monkeys. Surprisingly, even scientists are very difficult to determine what kind of findings are. This suggests that the differences, at least external, between people and monkeys of the ancient world were minimal. This fact confirms Darwin's theory of the origin of man.
8. A pig is more similar to a person in genetics than a monkey
Indeed, a pig’s heart valve is transplanted to people, however, it’s not about whole organs. Perhaps this is the future. But genetics strongly disagree with the fact that humans evolved from artiodactyls. Yes, some pig tissues take root in humans, but this is not related to genes. Curiously, the stem cells of animals such as mice are used to create artificial skin for humans. It turns out that the similarity of man and pig is a myth that has no place in real life. And the fact that pigs are used as donors for organ transplants is true. There are many pigs on the planet, there are many more monkeys, so they are used.
7. Darwin's theory is based, first of all, on the external similarity of man and monkey
In fact, the use of external similarities as the main evidence of the similarity of species was possible only many centuries ago. To date, the theory of human origin from a monkey is based on genetic, anatomical, embryological, paleontological, biochemical and behavioral similarities. It turns out a lot of points of contact between humans and monkeys as species. This once again confirms Darwin's theory.
6. Charles Darwin at the end of his life decided to renounce his theory
This myth appeared only in 1915 and has nothing to do with reality. Charles Darwin never renounced the main theory of his life. We will not find evidence for the hearing either in the writer's autobiography or in the memoirs of his friends and relatives. The legend of the abdication came from nowhere and made a lot of noise in the press, but it remained an unconfirmed invention.
5. Various fossil ancestors of man have been described by only one find.
In fact, before making a definite conclusion, anthropologists study a lot of finds. However, as a rule, only the first discoveries are remembered and go down in history. One of the first finds was the well-known Lucy, who is considered to be a monkey-ancestress of man. In schools and other educational institutions, when studying history, it is Lucy who is most often mentioned, forgetting to tell about other found remains.
4. It is impossible to accurately determine the age of the bones found
In the modern world, you can easily find out the age of certain remains. To do this, there are more than ten different high-precision methods that are constantly used by scientists to study the age of the remains found. For example, the bones of the first Australopithecus, whose name is Lucy, are more than 2.5 million years old - this age was determined using different types of analysis: potassium argon and the method of dividing tracks. Both analyzes performed showed approximately the same result with permissible errors.
3. In fact, it is impossible to reconstruct the appearance of monkey-like ancestors. It is only a fiction of scientists
The reconstruction method is associated with structural features of human bones. It is proved that soft tissues form depending on the bones of a person. Therefore, having studied the bones, we can conclude about the appearance of a person. This method is widely applicable, in addition to anthropology, in forensics. Mikhail Gerasimov made a number of great scientific discoveries related to this method, and he himself repeatedly recreated the external images of people based on the found remains. Reconstruction today is the exact way to recreate the external image of ancient ancestors.
2. Most of the evidence found for the origin and evolution of humans from monkeys is fakes
Yes, fakes have a place in the world of evidence of the origin of man from a monkey. However, fakes, among other finds, can be counted on the fingers. In addition, scientists easily detect falsified finds using various analyzes and do not attach much importance to them. Therefore, to say that the whole evolution of human origin from a monkey is just a fiction, this is a mistake. No attention is paid to fakes, and no one takes them seriously; such things are easy to reveal.
1. Too few anthropologists have found finds to draw any conclusions from them.
To be honest and to plunge deeply into the world of discoveries made by anthropologists, we can safely say that there is plenty of evidence for evolution. All found remains contain hundreds and thousands of the most important specimens, each of which is a separate proof of the origin of man. Therefore, scientists cannot be reproached for allegedly building their conclusions from scratch. Today, the world is full of facts. Which confirm the theory of the origin of man Charles Darwin.
