Kemper now:
To kind of answer few of your questions...

I've recently been thinking about Human Magical Origin as well... 

Growing up in a Judeo/Christian household: God created Man
 with 
flaws and faults (in His own image?).  Man had some kids through 
Eve.  After a while, there were some `birth defects' or `mutations': 
children who were `different'.  I imagine parents in the early days 
of human history (and most likely throughout history) would attempt 
to beat the `different' out their kids `for their own good'.  MANY 
cultures fear the different; it seems reasonable that the Magic 
Minority that survived their childhood would move away and hide from 
their abusive families, intolerant communities, ignorant churches, 
and hurtful et al.  End result
 or beginning
 is that Purebloods came 
from Muggles.

But


Growing up in a secular school system: Man evolved from Ape... 
survival of the fittest (but who or what created the fittist?
 
primordial ooze, who created that?
 from the Big Bang, who created 
the thing that was before the that
?)  Since there are magical owls, 
rats, cats, toads, snakes, why can't there be magical apes?  So, 
Magical Man evolved from Magical Ape.  End result
 or beginning
 is 
that Purebloods evolved from Metamorphosis (but not like man to 
roach).

Which is it?  I don't know, but since many Purebloods seem to have an 
aversion to Muggles, I would suspect that the first one MAY be true.
