Default Human Origins: Are we hybrids?

This was new to me

Have always thought that our origin was either from the apes or we was created by a God.

Well I've known quite a few people in my time that have reminded me of chimps or pigs.

Well i'm not sure whether this means what was posted in the link of the OP, even if the dna may be the same - we 'humans' share almost 100 percent of the dna code with worms, it just depends on which pairs of the chromosomes are switched on and off, chemically.

We are not the successors of apes. Darwin never said this b.t.w..
Apes and us have the same predecessors, way back in the past.

And of course humans are 'animals', just of 'human' species. Within millions of other species on earth. I am always astonished how one can see this differently.
I have a very intelligent friend, know him since decades and thought i would 'know' him, in a way. When it turned out eating our Pizza in an open air restaurant, i suddenly realized he did not know all those blinking lights in the sky were other suns, just like our sun. Of course, we seldomly need this knowledge to follow our daily routine, or being a banker

There's ample proof on the 'Net that some people come from the 'Ass'.

Well I meant that as a discredit really.I am no expert on such things but based on other theories I find this one a bit of a stretch.WE do not even understand enough about ourselves in more recent terms.

WE know enough to know that a percentage of modern humans have traces of Neanderthal to imply that we could be a hybrid of Cro-Magnon and Neanderthal but not enough to data to be certain that we are all a hybrid so to speak or only a percentage.

Until we have better understanding of just the human genome I will personally refuse to accept any origin theory.We do know enough yet.
