it isn't in our nature to think of a God, it is in our nature to seek answers and the concept of God is most influenced in this world.

I do doubt some of the inferences drawn from those fossils. So you have no compelling argument for why man is not descended from a common ancestor with apes, just "I don't like it."

ETA: BTW, why the switch from the fossil record to genetics? Not finding fossils all that compelling? |
