But how is it a blow to the idea of the evolution of man? It it a bipedal ape. It isn’t a human with a large brain, bu it is obviously an intermediate between a knuckle walking ape and a bipedal human. By what logic does one think that its discovery is a blow to the theory? Who said it needed a human sized brain to be an intermediate?

I do not sit on the jury I only can evaluate the data. Some believe it follows more closely to the apes and not humans, and therefore is not in the human evolutionary chain. Some would would not agree. I responded to one of you questions. Would you care to explain the “Cambrian explosion”?
