OK, I'm not all that smart, but come on, has no one heard of PANGEA?? I mean all the land masses were at one time connected, and with that in mind, follow to the conclusion of evolution and migration. let's throw another wrench in...how about all those fossils in north america ,with bones coming from a more asian background, Mammoths and all.

Sorry, if this bounces, and at this time I have no wonderful references to give. But please, people, can we watch a little more of History Channel and Discovery Channel, and a little less ETWN and 700 Club???

Yes, but that was millions of years before humans evolved. By the time modern humans had evolved the continents were very close to their current shapes and locations. The Bering land bridge was caused by sea level changes due to the ice ages.
