A 35,000-year flute refutes the idea of historic evolution

They don't teach that. you're either lying or you've misunderstood them.

Sorry to bust your chops but I'm not lying and yes my professor DID teach that. Just because you yourself have no idea doesn't make me a liar.

We did not come from chimps or gorillas. They're our very distant cousins. The common ancestors that we share with them were neither human, chimp or gorilla.

Cousin, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, mother, father, grandfather, whatever you wana call it, that still implies we come from them!

I suppose you're entitled to your opinion.

Absolutely, any doubts?

Well then you've probably misunderstood your professor. What Evolutionary biologists are there that claim we came from gorillas?

You didn't come from your cousin or your sister, certainly. The ape like creatures that chimps and humans evolved from were not chimps, they were something somewhat different and are simply not the same species as anything existing today. Chimps and gorillas did not exist 5 million years ago.

I don't know, enlighten me. And for the record, I didn't misunderstand anything. I even had him confirm it. Can we end that game now?

And what is that something millions of years ago? And how can we assume we evolved from them, other than the usual "there are similarities" bit? That seems to be the most popular argument. So what? Can't we denote it to be worldy order? Why ancestry?
