After I read all “Understanding Evolution”, I got very excited about getting to know more about the evolution. I just have some ideas that I want to share with. First of all, because of my poor biological background, I used to think humans did evolve from chimpanzees. The reason why I though on this way am just like Aristotle’s idea that life was organized ladder-likely. Fortunately, I know this now that humans and chimpanzees were just sharing a common ancestor. The other example is about birds and bats. I realized now.
Secondly, I also have a thought which is about the true is all humans were from ancient Africa. This is what I know from the DARWIN'S DNA: a Brief Introduction to Evolutionary Philosophy by Andrea Diem-Lane. Something maybe is not really about biology but it’s really important about our life. Since people all know that we are the same, and we share the same ancients, why cannot people stop fight, racial discriminate, and so on?
