Mine started somewhere around a year or two but their knuckles still drag the ground.

Because we looked ridiculously stupid on all fours and it was slowing us down.
And we’re lazy.
Wanna know why we created beer?

What a joke: they started walking upright from the start if one were to take serious one’s Christian tradition.

All speculation, no science.

I would feel guilty if I had a job like this.

A prevailing hypothesis is that they were prompted by climate change. If only they had Chevy Volts to drive instead of SUVs!
WE CAN'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE!!!!

Probably to be able to see farther to have a better chance of not being killed and eaten when on the ground.

bunch of BS...from a “christian” paper?? We never descended from apes or apelike creatures. T Here is plenty of evidence that we never did. More brainwashing from the mind controllers.

A study suggests that rocky landscapes in East and South Africa could have pushed our apelike ancestors toward bipedalism. YOU may have ape-like ancestors. I don't have any and nobody I associate with has any.
To: bimboeruption
Yes sir..this article is a mind control attempt probably from a writer who also has been brainwashed from his university...who, by the way, are chalk full of Communist agents.
