Go screw an ape, see what turns up.
Nothing....for a million years.
Be honest...
If folks post religious belief and pretend it is established science they are fair game. The sillier the post the more likely it is that I will use sarcasm. Many may see that as an insult, but if you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen.
If folks say that they believe such and such, and make no claims about science, I do not contradict them.
There is a huge difference between these two positions.
Nothing....for a million years.
That's sort of the point. To be descended from something via evolution, at some point, you have to be able to interbreed with the something and humans could not interbreed with apes or hominids any more than they could with goats or chickens; the genetic gulf is simply too wide. This also says that the attempts which many creationists make to categorize the neanderthal as a separate racial group of modern man are wrong.
Thanks for the link.
