Theories are not facts

We as a species are curious about everything. For example, we can't just accept that the sun comes up in the morning. We have to know why.  So we made up theories about it.  To the ancient Greeks, a god pulled the sun across the sky with his celestial chariot.  To the ancient Egyptians, the sun was a god.  Who was right?  Neither of them.  Science later proved for a fact that the sun is a star, a giant ball of really hot gas.  No chariots. No sentience.

And that's the thing about theories.  They're ideas, possibilities.  They are NOT facts.

We take far too many theories as facts.  Big Bang Theory.  Evolution. That all human life began in Africa.   All theories taken as fact but could very well not even be true.

Because we have no way of proving them.  No way of saying with indefatigable certainty that the universe began with an explosion. Why?  Because there's no record of it and we weren't there.  It's a guess someone made because the universe (as far as their technology can tell them at this moment) shows signs of expanding.  So they conjectured that the universe was more condensed in the past and something had to make it start expanding.  Must have been an explosion.

What came before the Big Bang though?

Apes share remarkable similarities to humans and we found some really old human like skeletons that don't look exactly like us so someone made a guess that our ancestors were neanderthals and we evolved from them.  Couldn't just be a species of man that died out huh?  Other animals have various varieties.  There are dozens of different types of bird some of which are now extinct.  House cats and tigers are both felines, but which evolved first?

And what exactly happened to create human life in the first place?

So the oldest remains we found so far happened to be in modern day Africa.  That doesn't mean there aren't older signs of life in Siberia we just haven't found yet.  There's zero proof that Africans are the true master race, the Israelites, and all other races are genetic mutations some how.

And why is it acceptable for blacks to express black pride when whites expressing white pride automatically makes them racist.  Another topic though.

Truth is, any history prior to what was written down is ALL CONJECTURE.  We have no record of what Stonehenge was really for.  Someone just guessed it had something to do with druids.  We have no records of where the first humans came from.  It's just a theory.

Theories are ok.  It's great to be curious, to try and understand things, but we have to be smarter than this.  We have to first understand that guesses are not facts and our theories could be wrong.  We have to keep an open mind.  We have to keep searching for answers and we should NEVER mistake opinion for truth.
