[QUOTE]Originally posted by Amun-Ra The Ultimate: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Truthcentric: [qb] Amun-Ra's confusion probably has its roots here. He assumes that linguistic relations must always reflect biological affinities, as if people couldn't adopt a language without changing their biological genomes. He cannot fathom the possibility that contemporary Semitic people could share a linguistic heritage with AEs and certain sub-Saharan Africans despite having closer biological ties to Europeans. [/qb][/QUOTE]That's not what I think at all. I'm discussing the genetic evidence because Swenet brought it up, he almost challenged me to do it (since his post(s) didn't involve any linguistic arguments at all and he re-posted his "genetic" post claiming I was avoiding it), but it's the linguistic evidences from Obenga's book and some other books which is convincing me. As well as other archeological evidences and yes the genetic evidences too. While it's possible for some people to adopt a language with minimal genetic exchange, I think it's not the case here. I don't see any other historic or archeological events (or genetic events) explaining this "language colonialism" from Africa. On the Negro-Egyptian side, it's all the contrary. Most African ethnic groups descendants from the Negro-Egyptian phylum are pretty close to each other genetically. They have a short genetic distance between one another. It's just something that adds up to the linguistic and archeological evidences. All the Negro-Egyptian languages have their homeland in the same region. [/QB][/QUOTE]
