A few decades ago, the question of what a person had a clear and unequivocal answer.Scientists have tried to convince us that it is this kind of kind of people, representing a group of primates.The origin of this theory put Charles Darwin.The Descent of Man, in his view, is simple and clear.The comparative anatomical study and the study of human embryos and monkeys, he established their undoubted kinship and assured everyone that man evolved from apes.Decade, this theory was considered the only correct one.The origin of man from apes is not questioned, although many scientists have been accumulating more facts speak about that in this doctrine there are many inconsistencies.
Finally, for the first time, scientists have voiced their doubts.The impetus for this began paleontological finds.Lee Berger of South Africa has found the remains of a man who lived more than two million years ago.This means that the Darwinian theory of the need to properly reviewed.Did not man evolved from apes, and degraded by creating a branch turned into monkeys.This is just one of the latest assumptions scientists trying to answer the question of what man is.
There are other theories.Having examined the excavated skeletons, anthropologists came to a sensational conclusion: evolution does not correspond to the image that drew Darwin.It turns out that the Cro-Magnons and Australopithecus have no relation to evolution.This is quite different species that could live in the world in parallel and not at different times, as previously thought.To answer the question, what is man, is becoming increasingly difficult.
Some experts believe that a person - is a powerful information-energy system, which has its own configuration, color, dynamics.Like any system, it tries to come to a standstill, but any external or internal event that balance breaks.Then the energy gets out of control and provoke depression, nervous breakdowns, war.Tension creates a desire in people who have to meet.
Who are we?Seeds of life brought from outer space?Fruit of some ecumenical experiments?The descendants of monkeys, or the immortal gods, designed to create and store information about the universe?Someday biologists will find the answer to these questions.But the key word will remain for biologists.
matter what is meant by the term scientists.The main thing - the inner content of a rational being, it bears the proud title.What is man?This is the highest value, the main wealth of the society.Does every person deserves to be considered the highest value?
Before answering this question, it is worth remembering the witch-hunt and the Nazi concentration camps, Stalin's repressions and maniacs who killed dozens of people.Perhaps, then, the answer will be much easier.
matter how man appeared on Earth.What is important is what he does for the universe.The important thing is that he - a particle of this universe, and it depends on the person how long the world will last, and how much he will be happy for all of us.
