Just thought you would like to know that your fellow Evos are no longer sure about the evidence that supposedly places chimps as humanity’s closes living relative. Do you ever stop and wonder why all your arguments for common descent keep biting the dust??? Didn’t think so.

The arguments used for common descent are still just as strong as before these morphologists starting comparing measurements; as it is based upon DNA, not morphological features.

But interesting how you interpret this GGG, because you think there is no descent allowed you falsely conclude that because this paper came out the entire field now accepts their premise. That is false and a rather idiotic view of what actually happens in science.

This is one of the last gasps of the morphologists picking a rather ridiculous hill to die on. They didn't appreciate the molecular guys running roughshod over their data and telling them where they were right and wrong and pointing out just how arbitrary picking points of morphological comparison is. .
