Yeah, it was gradual, over millions of years, yet no transitional ape/human fossils. But we'll find them one of these years. Keep the faith.
> yet no transitional ape/human fossils
Except, of course, that a multitude of such fossils have been found.
What on earth are you talking about? "Archaic" Homo Sapiens, Homo erectus, Homo ergaster, Homo heidelbergensis, Homo antecessor, Homo rudolfensis, Homo habilis, Australopithecus garhi, Australopithecus robustus, Australopithecus bosei, Australopithecus aethiopicus, Australopithecus bahrelghazali, Australopithecus africanus, Australopithecus afarensis, Kenyathropus playops, Australopithecus anamensis, Ardipithecus ramidus, Orrorin tugenensis... you mean other than these there are no transitional species?
I'm not sure I understand.
