Ya'll do what you have to do but it's not going to change his dog and pony show one little bit.
Hey, if he want's to hang around here and be skinned alive on an hourly basis, that's his kink. Who are we to deny the bullshitter his many and frequent intellectual destructions?
If this were a site where there were any people liable to fall for his bullshit, I'd leave the rag doll alone, but the fact is he's got nobody here to preach to and he'll eventually realise that and slink away like the broken cur that he is.

Yeah lad you're a banker in the same manner that I'm Taylor Swift. You're an unemployable 30 year old who hasn't left his mother's basement in the last fifteen years, since you left school because writing your name on an exam paper turned out to be beyond your capabilities.

You actually have no choice.
Genetics has proven the common ancestry.
But thanks for proving yet again, you have no clue about this subject also.
No one says they are a son of a monkey.
You can omit the religious shit.
No one here cares.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell

I'm reminded of the (possibly apocryphal) exchange between Bishop Wilberforce and Thomas Huxley at the Oxford debate. The story goes, more or less, that Wilberforce asked Huxley if it was through his grandfather or his grandmother that he claimed descent from an ape. Huxley is said to have retorted that he would not be ashamed to have a monkey for an ancestor but would be ashamed to be connected to a man who would use his great gifts to obscure the truth. Basically, he preferred being related to a baboon than to a bishop.

Scientists were the ones who exposed Piltdown in the first place, which points up the strength of science: it's self-correcting.

Finally, from a Christian perspective, there is a special reason to be cautious and skeptical at least about Ape-Human Evolution or AHE, because those who hate Christianity use it as a polemical weapon to attack the Faith. In a 1930 Book by William A Williams where he successfully exposed the "Piltdown Man Hoax" that was commonly accepted at the time, but universally acknowledged to be a Hoax only after 1953 (see next point), the author wrote: "Other evolutionists openly announce their antagonism to the Bible and Christianity. Clarence Darrow, in the Tenn. trial, called Christianity a “fool religion." ... We were not surprised to learn that, in the Tenn. trial, evolution was defended by agnostics, who made their chief attack on the Bible and revealed religion; and the school, the home and religion were defended by men of high Christian character. Had Mr. Darrow as earnestly defended Christianity and Mr. Bryan as earnestly opposed it, millions would have held up their hands in astonishment. But the alignment was natural, and opened the eyes of multitudes to the fact that evolution is a friend to infidelity and a foe to Christianity. Their objection to prayer during the sessions of the Court shows that they hated what God loves." From: https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/850...mages.html
In Rev. Williams book he notes that many "evolutionists" also reject Piltdown. So what is the significance here? Williams presents no evidence that it was a fake. Claiming he "exposed" it as a fake is a stretch. Williams screed is nothing but fallacious argument after fallacious argument. As far as I can tell he presents no valid argument that Piltdown was a hoax.
Since it's your evidence, please present us with the evidence that Williams was using to draw his conclusion?
