"The Toba catastrophe theory as presented in the late 1990s to early 2000s suggested that a bottleneck of the human population occurred c. 70,000 years ago, proposing that the human population was reduced to perhaps 10,000 individuals[3] when the Toba supervolcano in Indonesia erupted and triggered a major environmental change."
Population bottleneck - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
10,000. Not 2. Not 8. 10,000.
None of the genetic studies I have read come even close to supporting the claim that genetic diversity came from 1 couple that lived 6,000 years ago, or one family that survived a flood 4,000 years ago. None.
Since genetics may have been different, and the way they come up with the time is a bunch of utter hooey, that means nothing..except a statement of faith. I have my own faith thanks.
