KSU prof: Apes evolved from humans

Published: Thu, October 1, 2009 @ 1:30 p.m.

KENT — A Kent State University professor of anthropology says we should throw out all those posters and books that depict an ape evolving into a human being.

C. Owen Lovejoy, an internationally recognized biological anthropologist who specializes in the study of human origins, is one of the primary authors who revealed their research findings Thursday on Ardipithecus ramidus, a hominid species that lived 4.4 million years ago in what is now Ethiopia.

“People often think we evolved from apes, but no, apes in many ways evolved from us,” Lovejoy said.

Just another case of junk science serving to inflate the insatiable ego of another junk scientist who made a lucrative career through making wild claims about human origins based on next to nothing. This is about his nuttiest.

Maybe he should study the evolution of the South Side.

This "educator" is just demonstrating the racism of Marx, Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin. All staunch evolutionists.

I know we are the children of Adam and Eve, the entire human race. We are not animals and apes didn't evolve from humans beings.

"Liberal" education isn't education at all and their intelligent graduates are mis-educated. They should hire an excellent law firm, then file a class action law suit for FAILING TO EDUCATE, demand a full refund of their tuition, textbooks and damages.

I think the professor fell out of a tree while yanking his banana. Had to have landed on his head.

Viewpoint, lol! Evolution is so scientifically unsound. How could nothing create something? I suppose someone just threw a pile of scrap into the air and it landed on his desk completely and correctly assembled PC.

Chico, are you going to sue that so called biological anthropologist for defamation of character for claiming apes are descended from human beings? If he can prove his theory; it can explain the existence of the socialists.

The old saying is once again verified.

"Those that can do, those that can't teach"

We all know where this theory is going!

Those who can't teach, teach gym.
