Thanks for the link. It was highly educational.

Just one question, though...
when one clicks on the "Human Ancestors" link you provided, one can view a 'family tree' display of the descension of special evolution put forth in this theoretical array.

In this 'tree', at several ponts, there are no actual species referenced, rather there are large, red question marks.

What do those question marks represent?

Inquiring minds want to know. For if they represent gaps in this alleged tracing of the family of Man, then that portion of the theory of evolution is only suggested by such a 'tree' and not proven. As is true of the entire "Theory."

In fact, such gaps are exactly what I was referring to when I originally suggested that I would like for any paleontologist to show me the missing, absent, alluded-to-but-as-yet-unconfirmed middle-species between Man and Ape.

I thank you for posting a link which proves my point even more clearly with easily understood and fun to look at pictures. :-)

If you research your family tree, you will find some gaps in the history, some genetic contributions from unknown sources, and some historical errors, perhaps intentional. Does that mean you are not here now or that your ancestors did not exist?
