cowpoker: I reckon drunkenness seems the most plausible explanation for the invention of hats. Haven't scientists determined when human ancestors lost their body hair and started wearing clothing by the divergence of lice species? Perhaps all you need is the fossil of a pubic louse in the right place and you will know how early it was that hominids were getting blotto and sticking their loin cloths on their heads.

Geoff: I believe that the heretics who claim hats have developed over time, dictated by the environmental factors of fashion and available textiles should be shunned.

For we all know that hats have been ever-fixed in their current forms since first being bequeathed upon humanity. There is evidence of fedoras in cave paintings, top hats feature in Egyptian hieroglyphs, and there is repeated mention of baseball caps in Homer.

Corwin: This leads to the possibility that hats were present in the early Precambrian era long before Hominids existed, even long before the appearance of multi-cellular life.
Although the most primitive life forms left behind no fossil evidence, by measuring levels of Carbon 13 we can verify whether this carbon once existed within a living thing.

The trick now is to figure out which isotope of Carbon will need to be detected to verify that these early living things existed within hats.

No God told me to wear it.

... it's just a "hard-core" thing to do.

As far as I know, Jesus never wore cool hats.
