to make the remark that humans did evolve from something similar sounds like it is wishful thinking that he, a human, likes the idea of being a creation evolved from a fishlike creature, instead of being created by a loving God in His likeness...

I do not understand how anyone could reach such a conclusion. It certainly does not appear to be a logical derivation from the original statement. The statement that humans evolved from "something similar" is a conclusion drawn from the physical evidence. What a person wants to believe is irrelevant. Moreover, I do not understand how you have drawn any implications regarding what the individual wishes to believe about a specific deity.

There isn't any evidence of humans being evolved from anything like this..

therefore your statement is based on whimsical ideas and theories. You live in a "what if" fantasy world.

Where is this conclusive evidence? Dr. Linkey couldn't even find the link!

"Tiktaalik blurs the boundary between fish and land-living animal both in terms of its anatomy and its way of life," said Neil Shubin,...

He can't get more specific than *blurs*? The statement that humans evolved form something similar is a pretty safe one for an evolutionist to make, very non-commital and certainly not new. There is nothing in the article, however, that states *This is it*. It sounds like wishful thinking on his part.
