The new specimen was probably male, a fruit-eater and was slightly smaller than a chimpanzee, researchers say.

And scientists wonder why they don't have any credibility.

The evolutionists regualrly criticize the creation account because of the meat-eating-animals-whose-teeth-aren't-suited-for-a-vegatarian- diet issues, and yet here we have *scientists* looking at some sizable looking canines claming that this creature was *probably* a *fruit eater*.

Maybe they used those teeth like those juicer gadgets; poke a hole in the orange and such the juice out. Sounds good to me.

Did you think to look beyond the canines?

Or are you so eager to bash science that you just posted the first anti-science comment you could think up?

Did you ever consider that different teeth had (and still have) different functions?

I have not heard that criticism of creationists but a couple of big pointy teeth could be for defense. But in any case this seems like an early article -that scientists all across the world haven't had a chance to double check everything yet.

That's an important part of scientific review - scrutiny from scientists all over the world - that's how the cold fusion success was shown to be wrong..
