Ancient Native Americans from Europe?
The Siberian Bridge Theory doesn't appear to be as universal or air-tight as many would have you believe.

That show also talked about 'genetic swamping' where certain groups completely lost their genetic footprint due to breeding with other more dominant populations.

I'm not concerned with proving the Book of Mormon as much as I am proving the arguments against it are often pretty flimsy. Last edited by Indy Coug; 10-16-2007 at 04:50 PM. |
