Open Question: Would it be Crazy to Pursue Both a Career in Medical Anthropology and Archaeology?
I'd like to work with organizations like the ICRC and the EAAF identifying victims of war crimes as a medical/forensic anthropologist...but I'd also really like to be an archaeologist, too. I know that both of these fall nicely under the category of physical/biological anthropology, but what would that mean for my studies? I would need a MA in forensic anthropology in order to participate in the field; I imagine I'd need the same to be an archaeologist, right? Or would a BA suffice for that? Is there any way I could, for example, double-major or get an "option" or "focus" on BOTH at the same time?
I want to teach, too, but that could easily go to either discipline.
Is it crazy to want to do that? Do any anthropologists do it?Okay, you don't have to go through med school to be a forensic anthropologist, just to be clear. It's a forensic science - not medicine.

Children are so innocent
Reading Martin Luther King Jr. “Letter from Birmingham Jail” made me think about what I would go to jail for and it made me sad to realize that I do not believe in something so passionate enough to go to jail for. Then, after really thinking it through I realized that the one thing I would definitely go to jail for is my family and their safety. As a mom that is one of my biggest and most important priorities in my life. It can be from child abuse, their health and even children’s education that I would fight for. I strongly believe that if they were in any situation where their environment was unsafe and the only way to prove my point would be to go to jail, then I would definitely go.
There are many forms of child abuse that go on in America: Physical; hitting, shaking, burns, human bites, strangulation.: Emotional; constant disapproval, belittling, constant teasing: Sexual: fondling, the showing of private parts by an adult, sexual intercourse, oral and anal sex, forcing a child to watch while others have sexual intercourse, incest, pornography: Neglect; absence of adequate food, shelter, emotional and physical security, and medical care.
For these hideous and vicious acts I think my cause would make any mother ,parent or even any real human being go to jail for ,in my opinion. In fact, if I were to go to jail for this cause I do not think I would wait to get out to start doing something about it. The first step I would take would be to educate myself on the signs of abuse that a child might be dealing with. Most of the time it goes unnoticed because people think there are only physical signs of abuse but like I said there are many forms of it so one has to look closely. I would then ask for support from my family and friends to come together and help me fight to protect the children that have gone through this or try to help to prevent this from happening again or to any other child.
There are numerous ways to help out this cause, volunteering, donating to certain organizations around the country and helping parents of abused children. These methods might seem demanding but if one thinks about what an unfortunate child has/had to go through it does not compare to what little we could do to help. We have to think about the good that will come out when we work together.
What this cause says about me is that I truly care about the future and well being of any child, whether mine or someone else’s. It is not fair that someone would take the purity of a child and replace it with feelings of apprehension and fear towards another individual. The most obvious reason why I choose this cause is because I'm a mother and I want children to be safe, healthy, and happy. In doing this essay I have came across some sickening images and stories that make me wonder why this is happening to such innocent and beautiful children that are to be our future? It is very alarming to think that I have three children who are going to be around predators and not know how to stop them.
In a perfect world this would all end in the future, but realistically it will never happen so I believe that it is our responsibility to help each other out and protect our children from any type of abuse. Even if it won’t stop today we can have a smaller amount of abuse going on in America if we commit to the cause. So as a compassionate human being that I am, my cause that I would go to jail for is any form of child abuse. Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.

moreResolved Question: Is it Atheist fascism and Christian communism?
First off, this is a purely academic question and isn't by any means meant to imply anything on either belief system.
So all in all we know that within the last century the two most evil epochs and regimes they were caused by are the fascists (most notably the Nazis) and the communists (most notably the Stalinists). However, why did they pick their state religious beliefs that they did?
When we look at communism (especially in the Soviet Union) the idealism of the teachings of Christ is emphasized that all should be equal, live communally, and respect one another regardless of race and ethnicity (even though that didn't work out fully). Also people should give and receive fairly and no one should have more than the other, that we are all equal and of equal value to society and life. In fact (from cultural anthropology courses I've taken) if we look at sub-societal groups both in Europe and American such as the Mestizos, the Amish, the Shakers, the Oniedans, and most other of these sub-groups that still exist and even before communism ever started we see that they claim to be strong Christian groups that emphasize their communal and productivity living methods. Many anthropologists estimate that they have more communal living than the soviet union did and emphasize practically the same characteristics of communism- such as no private living but living as one communally, not judging by race, ethnicity, or deformity, little to no private goods, and long work hours with equal consumption in resource such as food and water, along with little outside trading and business. We also see that these communities (including the soviet union) have little respect and expanding on the sciences unless it's for their own technology. We see this in Stalin as many historians claim that he didn't believe in evolution, yet supported atomic physics greatly for the development of atomic weapons for his military. Nonetheless we can see the comparisons.
With fascism we have a society that is much more based on science, and beleives greatly in evolution, genetics, and biological population spectrums. We also see how darwinian methods, eugenics, medical and societal judgment based on biologically determined-features, along with emphasis on a population with greater health, certain genetic beauty and physical capability, and even IQ rates and ethnicity and race. This is usually put on the spectrum of inferior and superior in human judgment. (Please note that none of this related to atheism.) So with such emphasis on the sciences (mainly no/unethical since there was a lot of misuse/misinterpretations, pseudoscience, and human rights violations involved from derived scientific) why was such a society proned to chose religion over atheism and/or non-religion as their state belief? We clearly have a society going against its chosen belief to interfere with nature and human rights so why not go with atheism which would have nothing against what they committed and remove and unnecessary system in the state to escape judgement or hypocrisy as their religious beliefs held. (Please note atheism for such a regime in means of removing a worthless entity, not modern atheism which is completely different in association with science and philosophy.)
While I am aware that the beleif systems of both of these regimes had little to nothing to do with their actions, the simple choice in belief was ironic. Note that both were ultra evil with fascism in nature more than communism with numbers of innocent killed. We see Mussolini at some points (and Hitler a bit) being against the church and anti-clerical but then go to emphasize religion- Mussolini even made it mandatory for catholic crosses to be put in almost every public area. Then we see Stalin and Mao at times supporting their countries' original religions and not taking full purges against them, however they also emphasized communistic atheism and both (especially Stalin) declared a state war against religion during both his great purges.
So why do you think? Again this question has nothing to do with modern atheistic or Christian beliefs, but rather a historical or societal inquiry on why such ended up as it did. Thanks for taking the time to answer, again this question is for academic purposes.If you're too lazy to read then don't answer....point gobblers.If you're too lazy to read then don't answer....point gobblers.

Eating Christmas in
the Kalahari
Richard Borshay Lee
The !Kung Bushmen’s knowledge of
Christmas is thirdhand. The London
Missionary Society brought the holiday
to the southern Tswana tribes in the early
nineteenth century. Later, native catechists
spread the idea far and wide
among the Bantu-speaking pastoralists,
even in the remotest corners of the Kalahari
Desert. The Bushmen’s idea of the
Christmas story, stripped to its essentials,
is “praise the birth of white man’s
god-chief”; what keeps their interest in
the holiday high is the Tswana-Herero
custom of slaughtering an ox for his
Bushmen neighbors as an annual goodwill
gesture. Since the 1930’s, part of the
Bushmen’s annual round of activities
has included a December congregation
at the cattle posts for trading, marriage
brokering, and several days of trancedance
feasting at which the local Tswana
headman is host.
As a social anthropologist working
with !Kung Bushmen, I found that the
Christmas ox custom suited my purposes.
I had come to the Kalahari to
study the hunting and gathering subsistence
economy of the !Kung, and to accomplish
this it was essential not to
provide them with food, share my own
food, or interfere in any way with their
food-gathering activities. While liberal
handouts of tobacco and medical supplies
were appreciated, they were
scarcely adequate to erase the glaring
disparity in wealth between the anthropologist,
who maintained a two-month
inventory of canned goods, and the
Bushmen, who rarely had a day’s supply
of food on hand. My approach, while
paying off in terms of data, left me open
to frequent accusations of stinginess and
hard-heartedness. By their lights, I was a
miser.
The Christmas ox was to be my way
of saying thank you for the cooperation
of the past year; and since it was to be our
last Christmas in the field, I determined
to slaughter the largest, meatiest ox that
money could buy, insuring that the feast
and trance-dance would be a success.
Through December I kept my eyes
open at the wells as the cattle were
brought down for watering. Several animals
were offered, but none had quite the
grossness that I had in mind. Then, ten
days before the holiday, a Herero friend
led an ox of astonishing size and mass up
to our camp. It was solid black, stood
five feet high at the shoulder, had a fivefoot
span of horns, and must have
weighed 1,200 pounds on the hoof. Food
consumption calculations are my specialty,
and I quickly figured that bones
and viscera aside, there was enough
meat—at least four pounds—for every
man, woman, and child of the 150 Bushmen
in the vicinity of /ai/ai who were expected
at the feast.
Having found the right animal at last,
I paid the Herero £20 ($56) and asked
him to keep the beast with his herd until
Christmas day. The next morning word
spread among the people that the big
solid black one was the ox chosen by /
ontah (my Bushman name; it means,
roughly, “whitey”) for the Christmas
feast. That afternoon I received the first
delegation. Ben!a, an outspoken sixtyyear-
old mother of five, came to the
point slowly.
“Where were you planning to eat
Christmas?”
“Right here at /ai/ai,” I replied.
“Alone or with others?”
“I expect to invite all the people to eat
Christmas with me.”
“Eat what?”
“I have purchased Yehave’s black ox,
and I am going to slaughter and cook it.”
“That’s what we were told at the well
but refused to believe it until we heard it
from yourself.”
“Well, it’s the black one,” I replied
expansively, although wondering what
she was driving at.
“Oh, no!” Ben!a groaned, turning to
her group. “They were right.” Turning
back to me she asked, “Do you expect us
to eat that bag of bones?”
“Bag of bones! It’s the biggest ox at /
ai/ai.”
“Big, yes, but old. And thin. Everybody
knows there’s no meat on that old
ox. What did you expect us to eat off it,
the horns?”
Everybody chuckled at Ben!a’s oneliner
as they walked away, but all I could
manage was a weak grin.
That evening it was the turn of the
young men. They came to sit at our
evening fire. /gaugo, about my age,
spoke to me man-to-man.
“/ontah, you have always been square
with us,” he lied. “What has happened to
change your heart? That sack of guts and
bones of Yehave’s will hardly feed one
Article 4. Eating Christmas in the
camp, let alone all the Bushmen around
ai/ai.” And he proceeded to enumerate
the seven camps in the /ai/ai vicinity,
family by family. “Perhaps you have forgotten
that we are not few, but many. Or
are you too blind to tell the difference between
a proper cow and an old wreck?
That ox is thin to the point of death.”
“Look, you guys,” I retorted, “that is
a beautiful animal, and I”m sure you will
eat it with pleasure at Christmas.”
“Of course we will eat it; it’s food.
ButYes, I DO know what reciprocity means, thank you!

Well, today, someone close to me sent me this email. This person just finished his second day of Cultural Anthropology 101. He said:
"I feel like anthropologists would become self-sufficient, cynical and bitter people. Takes the romance out of life. Cuz they compartmentalize everything and try to explain every single human emotion and action! They don't believe in ambiguity! Don't do it!!"
Is any of this true? Frankly, if any subject would fall under this type of accusation, I would think it would be psychology. But never Anthro.

moreResolved Question: Are Indians Caucasians?
The concept of a Caucasian race or Varietas Caucasia was developed around 1800 by Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, a German scientist and classical anthropologist. Blumenbach named it after the peoples of the Caucasus (from the Caucasus region), whom he considered to be the archetype for the grouping. He based his classification of the Caucasian race primarily on craniology. Blumenbach wrote:
"Caucasian variety - I have taken the name of this variety from Mount Caucasus, both because its neighborhood, and especially its southern slope, produces the most beautiful race of men, I mean the Georgian; and because all physiological reasons converge to this, that in that region, if anywhere, it seems we ought with the greatest probability to place the autochthones (birth place) of mankind."
In physical anthropology
The Georgian skull Blumenbach discovered in 1795 to hypothesize origination of Europeans from the Caucasus.
Meyers Blitz-Lexikon (Leipzig, 1932) divides “Europäid” types into: Nordic race, Dinaric race, Mediterranean race, Alpine race, East Baltic race, Turks, Bedouins (Arabid race), and Afghans (Irano-Afghan). Not featured here, but common in the literature, was the Armenoid race
"Caucasoid race" is a term used in physical anthropology to refer to people of a certain range of anthropometric measurements.19th century classifications of the peoples of India considered the Dravidians of non-Caucasoid stock as Australoid or a separate Dravida race, and assumed a gradient of miscegenation of high-caste Caucasoid Aryans and indigenous Dravidians.
By contrast, Carleton S. Coon in his 1939 The Races of Europe classified the Dravidians as Caucasoid as well, due to his assessment of what he called their "Caucasiod skull structure" and other physical traits (e.g. noses, eyes, hair). In his The Living Races of Man, Coon stated that "India is the easternmost outpost of the Caucasian racial region". Sarah A Tishkoff and Kenneth K Kidd state: "Despite disagreement among anthropologists, this classification remains in use by many researchers, as well as lay people."
According to Leonard Lieberman, Rodney C. Kirk, and Alice Littlefield, the concept of race has been all but completely rejected by modern mainstream anthropology. The United States National Library of Medicine has used the term "Caucasian" as a race in the past, but has discontinued its usage in favor of the term "European" In the United Kingdom and Europe, the term "Caucasian" is mostly used to describe people from the Caucasus, although it may still be used as a racial classification.
In the medical sciences
In the medical sciences, where response to pharmaceuticals and other treatment can vary dramatically based on ethnicity, there is great debate as to whether racial categorizations as broad as Caucasian are medically valid. Several journals (e.g. Nature Genetics, Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, and the British Medical Journal) have issued guidelines stating that researchers should carefully define their populations and avoid broad-based social constructions, due to the fact that these categories are more likely to be measuring differences in socioeconomic class and access to medical treatment that disproportionately affect minority groups, rather than "racial" differences. Nevertheless, there are journals (e.g. the Journal of Garstroentorology and Hepatology and Kidney International) that continue to use poorly defined "racial" categories such as Caucasian.
Usage in the United States
In the United States, the term Caucasian has been mainly used to describe a group commonly called White Americans, as defined by the government and Census Bureau. Between 1917 and 1965, immigration to the US was restricted by a national origins quota. The Supreme Court in United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind (1923) decided that Asian Indians – unlike Europeans and Middle Easterners – were Caucasian, but were not white, because most laypeople did not consider them to be white people. This was important for determining whether they could become naturalized citizens, then limited to free whites. The court and government changed its opinion in 1946. In 1965 major changes were made to immigration law, lifting earlier restrictions on immigrants from Asia.
moreResolved Question: Why are mathematicians and engineers (of all stripes) more likely than psychologists, biologists, physicists..?
..., chemists, medical doctors, sociologists, archaeologists, geologists, anthropologists, meteorologists, paleontologists, historians, novelists et al. to believe in a 'god'?
Is it not because of 1) Their nerdiness exceeds that of the others and 2) because they want so desperately to identify with the very god they worship (i.e. to worship themselves - to them, the concept of god is more closely resonant to Platonic mathematics (absolutism) or engineering (creating)).
Only the religulous worship something, including themselves. This is especially true for talented mathematicians and engineers. I can see why they get caught up in themselves, even though it is unhealthy.
I also understand enough about mathematics and engineering to know full well of their extra layers of self-delusion.No crystal it has to do with not getting laid. Literally.Nerlinger, I take exception to your taking exception.Bob Vila, logic fail, and uncreatively I might add.

And who of a person a human being (a name) please, is one who can be the closest to having the brains of knowing it all and everything. If we had to narrow it all the way down what position would it be under and who of a person is this. Please explain and also why. I'd appreciate it. Thank you. Please help.

moreResolved Question: "Race" and, Humans,.... does anyone have any answers?
How many Human races are there???
I was taught that there was only 3
1. White/ European or, CAUCAS0ID race
2. Yellow/ East Asian or, MONG0L0ID race
3. Black/ African or, NEGR0ID race
But, if so,... then, what about the Native Americans, Australian Aborigines, Polynesians, and the very dark skinned Indians (from India)???
How many human races are there???
And, why do some people say that races or, subspecies within humans don't exist when, Anthropologists can determine an individuals race by examining a human skull.
When there are genetic tests that can take an individuals DNA and, accurately determine where from,.... and what race you and, all your ancestors were???
When Medical Doctors need to know a patients race in order to properly treat that patient.
When prescription drugs are known to affect people of different races differently???
When any person with a set of eyes can see a person and, almost instantly know if the majority of that person's ancestors were,... from Europe, East Asia, or Sub Sahara African???
I understand that for the sake of injustices of the past,.... that race is a touchy subject but,.... to just go around and, playing pretend and, say it doesn't exist,.... that its ALL just a figment of our imagination,.... That is just ridiculous!!!
Tigers,.... for example have four subspecies or, "races"
Biologists don't go around saying,... ALL Tigers are all the same,.... they have NO varying subspecies,.... why??? Because Tigers don't give a crap if there are genetic variations between them. It doesn't make them angry,.... or, hurt their feelings
Yet,.... we do it for humans because it does???
All tiger subspecies are interbreed-able with one another,... with healthy fertile offspring,... same as humans.
So are we compromising science for the sake of political correctness???.... If so that's garbage!!!
Or, is there a logical reason that someone can explain to me,.... that explains why modern science is saying race or, subspecies exists within most higher mammals but, not in humans???Wendy,.... hispanics are all white!!!
Hispanics are Caucasians,... they come from Spain,... which is south Europe,... and, like ALL indigenous Europeans they are Caucasian.
Because they come from Southern Europe where the sun is a little stronger than it is in other European Countries,... they are generally a little darker skinned and, have slightly darker hair and eyes than other white people.....they are still 100% white/ Caucasian.
The only exception is when "hispanics" are mixed race people,... mixed with Inca, Aztec. Myan or other Native American race people. Or, if they are mixed with African blood,.... from the slaves the Spanish brought over hundreds of years ago.farmer
I have to say,.... you make VERY interesting points!!!!!
Good insight! I think you probably hit the nail of the head,... with the Eugenics movement,.... people don't want to talk about race anymore,... because people will only try to prove which race is better than,... someone else's, and racial superiority/inferority garbage. Which could lead to,...
Possibly controlled human breeding (Eugenics all over again)
Anyways,.... good points farmer!!!!J
You also made good points!
And, thank you for clearing up the racial categories,.... Although I'm not sure Australian Aborigines can be accurately grouped in with African race people.Random6x
You also made great points!!!!
But, I have heard that argument before,... although yours was FAR BETTER explained and, intelligently communicated.
The dilema I have with it is that,... "the color fading" thing,
The races not being clearly defined inbetween the "miles" (as you explained) between Japan and France (as an example).
All that jazz,... to me,... is nothing more than varrying degree's of mixed race people.
To me its like an intelligent "cop out" people are so overly concerned with hurting other people's feelings,... that they say race doesn't exsist.
And, to validate that argument,... they go on about how races can't be clearly defined,...as some people don't fit in neatly in race categories,...when really its just because those people are of mixed race,... never the less,... GREAT ANSWER!!!

How old are the Polynesians? There is Genetic evidence that the Polynesians are the Asians of Southeast Asia, some of the original Southeast Asians are close relation to islands like Samoa, so how old are the Polynesians, or does it start at around 6000 years? In Southeeast Asia put out by Pubmed, and other medical online databases for Anthropologists, Southeast Asia is 50,000 years old at least. with Australian Aborginals at around 70,000 years- So just because some places have a history of under 6000, does that mean Polynesian History should start at 6000?

National Health Care: Medicine in Germany 1918-1945
By Marc S. Micozzi, M.D.
Marc S. Micozzi, M.D., Ph.D., a physician and anthropologist, directs the National Museum of Health and Medicine in Washington, D.C., which recently brought from Berlin the exhibition, “The Value of the Human Being: Medicine in Germany 1918-1945,” curated by Christian Pross and Götz Aly.
Today we are concerned about issues such as doctor-assisted suicide, abortion, the use of fetal tissue, genetic screening, birth control and sterilization, health-care rationing and the ethics of medical research on animals and humans. These subjects are major challenges in both ethics and economics at the end of the twentieth century. But at the beginning of the twentieth century the desire to create a more scientific medical practice and research had already raised the issues of euthanasia, eugenics, and medical experimentation on human subjects. In addition, the increasing involvement of the German government in medical care and funding medical research established the government-medical complex that the National Socialists later used to execute their extermination policies.
The German social insurance and health care system began in the 1880s under Bismarck. Ironically, it was part of Bismarck’s “anti-socialist” legislation, adopted under the theory that a little socialism would prevent the rise of a more virulent socialism.

4 years of basic college
4 years of med. school
3-5 years of training in pathology
1 year of training in forensic anthropology
Totalling up to about 14 years, so it takes about 14 years of school to become a forensic pathologist/M.E.
In addition to the fourteen additional years of school required, a medical examiner must also be
-open minded
-a problem solver (in order to solve crimes and puzzles etc)
-have great communication and people skills

Note that I have not listed any illegal occupations or careers. If you don't want to be the Pope but would like to be a clergy person that choice is open. So is just about every other.I have also not revealed MY choice. I'll save that for when I close this question. (It is on the list.)I really like Renaissance Man's answer. There are many others I like as well. To early to choose the best, but will try to do that tomorrow.
Bijou, I admire your idealism. If I could grant your wish I would. I see some really cool ideas here and I like every answer so far.
moreResolved Question: I need help in forensic crime?
1. In order for evidence to be of value to the case it must be
sent to the lab.
handled with gloved hands only.
fully documented at all stages of the investigation.
collected and studied only by the forensic scientists.
photographed.
2: If you found a letter at the scene of a crime how might it be processed for evidence?
labeled with a felt-tip marker and stored in cellophane
study the person’s handwriting to identify the criminal’s personality type
examine the design, shape and structure of the letters and words
don’t bother looking for finger prints, it is just paper
all of the above
3: In document analysis which item and evidence do not match?
paper type-->age of the document
handwriting-->period of time over which document was produced
ink type-->age of document
letter structure-->specific machine or instrument used to produce document
handwriting-->attitude and emotion of the author at the time of writing
4: What were some of the problems investigators faced in the Lindbergh kidnapping
unsecured crime scene so the investigators were not in control of the investigation and use of evidence
autopsy was not done correctly
the maid in charge of the baby lied about where she was on the night of the kidnapping
all of the above
two of the above
5: In the study of the historic Viking map exhibited by Yale
the map was proven without question to be forgery by all scientists.
there is conflicting evidence whether it is a fake or not.
the map was concluded by all to be the work of a medieval scribe.
the map has only recently be proven to be authentic by modern carbon dating techniques.
two of the above are true.
6: The study of the process of natural diseases and death in the human body is carried out by a medical doctor called a
pathologist
forensic pathologist
coroner
medical examiner
all of the above
7: A forensic pathologist would do all of the following except
perform autopsies to determine cause of death relating to homicides.
study the cause of death in situations involving drugs and alcohol.
perform autopsies for coroners and medical examiners.
be considered an expert witness in civil cases involving death and injury.
investigate any crime or accident involving a death.
8: When a body is first discovered what things must immediately be recorded in order to help determine the time of death? All of the following are important to determine time of death except
temperature of the body
temperature of the environment
sex and age of victim
weight of the victim
the weather conditions
9: Work at the "Body Farm" helps forensic anthropologist use scientific methods to
identify body parts of victims
to locate dead bodies
establish a time line of decomposition processes on the human body
study violent crimes and their effect on the human body
all of the above
10: Use your logic to solve this crime: A lovely cashmere sweater was found torn to shreds (What a Crime!!) on the sidewalk. The sweater police talked to six witnesses, including the shredder. The six were very open about what had happened. The only trouble was that none of them spoke any language the police could understand. Nevertheless, the police were able to piece together the following information: Use the evidence to determine who destroyed the sweater?
- The witnesses were three men and three women: Fred, John and William; Gloria, Gilda, and Barbara
- The men were married to the women, though not necessarily in the order listed.
- William's wife was the cashmere murderer.
- Fred speaks and understands only Basque.
- John is bald.
- The couple who live next door to Gilda and her husband have the same color hair she does, and speak both Spanish and Basque.
- William's wife recently gave Barbara a home permanent.
- Gilda's husband speaks only French.

moreResolved Question: All about forensic anthropology?
Okay so I'm still in high school but i'm pretty sure that i want to be a forensic anthropologist. Does anyone have any ideas or information about what I can do, to prepare or make it easier to be one. I've been thinking about doing the medical program at my high school which is more about medical assisting but I figure that it wouldn't hurt. Also what I would need to major in, have a bachelor degree in, undergrad. in; I'm not so sure about what I need to do. If anyone has any tips, or information that would help so much! Also if anyone has or known someone thats gone to a college in Ohio to become a forensic anthropoligist, what college they went to; or if anyone knows of a good one.
Thanks!

moreResolved Question: Christians, If evolution is false then why does it work so well?
Geologists aren't reaching false conclusions based on their ancient view of the earth. Everything appears to be just as they would expect and nothing like the Bible describes.
Astronomers aren't reaching false conclusions based on their calculations of the age of the Universe and I have yet to see a Church group launch a probe into space.
Medical Biologists are developing vaccines, antibiotics, fertility methods and genetic treatments that could not have been imagined without Charles Darwin.
Anthropologists and Archaeologists are discovering precisely the types of things they should expect in an ancient world with an evolutionary biology and the migrations of populations.
All of these disciplines have to work together, or they don't work at all. All are part of a model of the universe that far surpasses your Disneyland version of reality in complexity and it is being put to the test every minute of every day at NASA and at your pharmacy.
Are you still sure it's "just a theory"?I see we have a bunch of Kirk Cameron wannabes posing as Theists here in R & S.
I had hoped for better but I should have known.
