Topic: Question from left field....

"Conventional wisdom" states that all dogs came from wolves and were slowly bred into different breeds by humans.  This seems impossible to me.  How could the same genetic stock be "un-naturally selected" into poodles, bloodhounds, collies, CHIHUAHUAs etc.

Long hair, short hair, straight hair, curly hair, ridgeback, etc.  How could it be possible that all of these variations came from the wolf as the result of man selectively breeding certain qulities in and out of the wolf?

It doesn't seem possible to me.  Does anyone else find this.......well.....worth contemplating?

Cheers!

Winston

Definitely.  If you haven't already read him, I recommend the work of Lloyd Pye.  He writes at length about how human origins are not how we've been taught, and how domesticated grains and animals could not have been bred by our recent ancestors the way we've been told.  The genetic manipulation involved is so complex that supposedly to this day, scientists have been unable to reproduce it in a lab.  Nobody wants to talk about that though.  !  Instead they just keep pretending that our hunter-gatherer primitive ancestors were able to make pigs out of boars, cats and dogs out of wild big cats and wolves, and so on.
