Story Of Human Evolution (History Channel)



Thought I'd embed this documentary about our human beginnings from an evolutionary perspective. What I found interesting was that the documentary speaks of a specimen called "Lucy" as though she walked upright, but there is recent speculation of her having walked on her KNUCKLES, similar to a modern-day ape or chimpanzee! The ending was also interesting as the film concludes that ALL of the accepted specimens (homo erectus, homo habillis, "Lucy", and "Neanderthal Man") are links to our supposed human evolution. This is funny considering that they picked these things apart earlier (they saw Lucy as being more chimp than human, for example). In the end, they conclude along the same lines as Darwin apparently did: "We don't know, but we might in the future. If we find anything, we'll let you know. There are many areas of the world that haven't been dug up yet, so who knows what's out there?" All in all, it gives a good insight as to the minds of evolutionists and even shows some frauds that have been made (Piltdown Man). Enjoy!
