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.

It will be interesting to see how this thread evolves. :)
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.
ProAmerican,
What are you trying to insinuate??

I think the professor fell out of a tree while yanking his banana. Had to have landed on his head.
The old saying is once again verified.
"Those that can do, those that can't teach"
We all know where this theory is going!
