An interesting FACT about eyes!

(which, by the way, tosses a LOT of genetic information out there, but reveals zero sourcing)
this could/might be correct, but i haven't done any checking
---------------------------------------------
"blue eyes haven't always existed.
The color is believed to have originated between 6,000-10,000 years ago from a genetic mutation that resulted in a "switch" which literally turned off the genetic mechanism for brown eyes.
Those with blue eyes therefore share something more than just eye color:
They all have one common ancestor."
----------------------------------------------
bolding is mine
a single ancestor!
ONE guy with powerful seed
maybe jesus DID have blue eyes and blonde hair and melanin-scarce skin
but the timeline does not seem to fit the history i have been taught
so very interesting on a saturday morning

@trev33 saidThe terms originate from Cockney so you can still apply for the preferable Scouse Passport. Although you will get asked for your ald fella's name on the form.
Had no idea what a pony or monkey was and guessed wrong... opps. Might not apply for that British passport after all 😀
