As the new finds roll in it is becoming increasingly obvious that the human evolutionists should have the intellectual honesty to admit that at present they do not know how Homo Sapiens came into being. I'm no man is 6000 years old fanatic. It is OK for science to admit they do not know.

Strictly speaking, science itself claims to know nothing -- zero, zip, nada -- beyond what it actually knows through confirmed observations (aka "facts") and hypotheses (aka "theories").
Even they are subject to epistemic and ontological questioning (i.e., "are you certain?").

Out beyond those is nothing but doubt and speculations, what Isaac Newton called the: "great ocean of truth [which] lay all undiscovered before me. "

Science, and scientists do.

If someone doesn't, they aren't scientists, no matter their claim.
