| Study anthropology and you will learn that the first hominids appeared in Africa approximately 5.5 million years ago. |

| Patrick, what do you mean when you use the word "race?" A hominid is a hominid. "Modern" humans spread around the world in several migrations over thousands of years. What do you mean when you use the word "modern?" |

| what do i mean when i use the word modern louise ? ---well nobody knows how old the earth is, and in the vast time period that the earth has been in existence no one knows how many different creations of GOD there has been in those countless milleneniums, so our present human race which has only been around for about 6,000 years is by comparison fairly MODERN--? |

Patrick, geologists have a fairly good idea of the planetary age, the origins of plant and animal life and, because we are a "new" species (relatively) there are fossil records of early hominids.
If you like, you may imagine many previous planetary "incarnations," I suppose, but, without physical evidence, they are merely imaginations. |
