13. I believe this is because people have forgotten over the eons
Edited on Sat May-10-08 04:42 PM by Uncle Joe
that everyone is family, branching out from the same DNA tree trunk, making it more difficult for distant branches to recognize each other as to who they are; distant relatives, long separated by time, geography, and environmental influenced breeding to the point of unfamiliarity. Unfamiliarity giving rise to suspicion and fear.

PBS had a program on a few months ago in which they traced the world's oldest DNA; a type everyone has to middle Asia. They even traced it to an individual man as having the world's most primitive DNA and he became somewhat ecstatic, grinning from ear to ear, when they told him all of humanity branched off from his family tree trunk.
