1.8M-year-old skull gives glimpse of our evolution

Let the creatards shriek.

Shriek over what? The article points out that paleontology is largely guesswork, without even operational definitions for a species.

For years, some scientists have said humans evolved from only one or two species, much like a tree branches out from a trunk, while others say the process was more like a bush with several offshoots that went nowhere.

Even bush-favoring scientists say these findings show one single species nearly 2 million years ago at the former Soviet republic site. But they disagree that the same conclusion can be said for bones found elsewhere, such as Africa. However, Lordkipanidze and colleagues point out that the skulls found in Georgia are different sizes but are considered to be the same species. So, they reason, it's likely the various skulls found in different places and times in Africa may not be different species, but variations in one species.

To see how a species can vary, just look in the mirror, they said.

"Danny DeVito, Michael Jordan and Shaquille O'Neal are the same species," Lordkipanidze said.

As a Christian, if you follow the bible's lineage from Jesus to Adam and Eve, you believe that human beings were created about 7000 years ago. Think we can agree, the fossil they found is older than that. lol And most likely, isn't Adam's or Eve's.

Christianity is riddled with lies. If you wish to believe those lies, that is your choice. But, don't propose that we should believe them too.

So, whatever you are going on about is a moot point, because your entire belief system doesn't permit you to believe that human beings evolved.
