Why is this automatically assume to be a primate? It looks like a dinosaur fossil. Human ancestor, there needs to be a new word invented for that level of guessing. What a joke.

You hit the nail on the head - that fossil could be a lizard, a dinosaur, a big rodent, or just about anything with 4 legs and a tail.

Yet, we're supposed to believe "scientists" (read: ivory tower-indoctrinated overedumacated trust-fund-babies) have some special ability to see more in that "fossil" than we FReepers do.

The sheer arrogance is astounding.

No, it can’t be a lizard, or dino, or rodent - not if the words have any meaning.

Why would it be sheer arrogance for someone who has studied bones of various animals all their life to believe that they have more knowledge than most of what the bones of certain animals look like? Wouldn’t the sheer arrogance belong to someone who hasn’t done any such study and yet believes that they know as much as people who have?

It would hardly be astounding arrogance for a plumber with years of experience to believe that he knows more about plumbing than most. It would be astounding arrogance for me who hasn’t spent a second on plumbing work to think I know as much as plumbers.
