We're all Chinese Now

It has been widely reported this week that human remains have been found in China that pre-date the previous earliest dated human remains that were found in Africa by quite a few thousands of years.
So, for all the people who say 'we're all African' can we now say to them 'no we're all Chinese now actually'?

I stick to the african theory.

"I stick to the african theory"

Why? Ever heard of the Nebra Disk (Google it) which was discovered in Germany and pre-dates anything from Africa?

BTW, a 'theory' is, by definition, not a fact.

Well that's most interesting. Hadn't heard of that one, thanks.

Someone better tell that clown Bonnie Greer she is still perpetuating that out of Africa myth. That went out years ago.

Anyone know where her blogg/page is. I will post it myself.

Wotan: I'm not too keen on Greer myself either. Didn't like her smirking arrogant racist performance on question time (with Nick Griffin) one bit.
